[Efren is G.O.A.T.]

Capcom is worst than ubisoft at this point.

But they are not french at least.

You should learn french, it's a beautiful language.

 

[Come On Tars]

Please no erasure of the cross dressing community, we are unique from trans. Also we are capable of being evil like other human beings so if they take away the "cross dressing freak" line I will report them to NATO.

 

[Northeastmonk]

i wonder if they'll keep the gulp worm.

 

[FoxMcChief]

This is now my second most hyped game, at the moment. Starfox, then this.

I loved Veronica. I might hold it up even more because it was a Dreamcast game.

CV is very special to me because it the was the first RE game that was all mine. I was always obsessed with them but never owned a PS. CV also has a unique flavor to it that I love. It's an epic globetrotting story with graphics that were so clean for the time.

 

[MrCunningham]

How did the voice actor make that laugh? It sounds like he is imitating a Dolphin. Honestly Alfred is one of my favorite human villains in the RE franchise. Just for the insane vocal line readings. He fits the family tree of the Umbrella founders really well.

 

[Varteras]

Won't happen in the new remake.

I'll suck five dicks if it does. Anyone here. Your choice.

[simpatico]

I like how they're retconning the series to make this RE:V. It's brilliant frankly. Anyone ask about Shiva and boulder punching and just act dumb about it. Eventually, the future generations will forget. This was always RE:V.

 

[laynelane]

I played 5 last year. The hand wringing over remaking it is insane. Game takes place in Africa and half the people you kill aren't even black. Even if they were, what does it matter? It's in Africa. I don't think regular people would care.

Capcom made a lot of changes due to feedback after the initial reveal. They listened and people still raged and are waiting to do it again. I just hope it's clear (to Capcom) from the numbers the game did that the perpetually offended are not the majority.

 

[Zacfoldor]

I can't wait!

 

[yogaflame]

That Granny is more likeable than all the female characters the West has produced in the last 5 years.

Yes especiallly those female coming from sony

 

[CellarDoor81]

I'm guessing this won't be in the remake......

Remake:

 

[yogaflame]

Cris: Come on Leon the bloodline must continue!

 

[Soodanim]

I don't want to celebrate before I know what they have changed... I am afraid they've made it more "serious" and less over-the-top than the original.

I share this concern. 4R was a good example of how they stripped away a lot of the character in favour of moody atmosphere. CV has its fair share of moments and I think they're going to have a complete personality shift.

It's a manufactured controversy. All these years and I'm yet to be convinced that it's anything but. I'd wager that half the people who parrot RE5 being controversial couldn't tell you why.

Hope after this game they retcon the series direction and go somewhere else. Killing Wesker off was the biggest mistake the series ever made.

For years I've had a theory that the whole remake series has been for that sole reason. We're relatively close to seeing if I'm right.

However, I will say that

Spoiler: RE9 story

I'm not sure how keeping Wesker alive would work with an imitation Wesker also having existed. But I suppose they kept it so ambiguous that it can still go in multiple directions.

With 9 introducing clones a lot of the old rules might be rewritten. It's Capcom's own multiverse problem.

 

[Crimsonhead]

It's a remake, after RE2 she dumps Sherry onto Leon and goes straight to keep looking for his brother, CVX happens a few months after RE2 as well, so there is nothing from Claire happening in between that timeline

Trailer looked great and nothing like CVX, I like how they're adding a prologue to the story, because in the original she goes to the Umbrella Building in France shooting bullets like crazy and then get overwhelmed and captured, here you see her arriving to France looking for Chris normally, cool they'are adding more to the story and I guess Hunk is in fully and not just name dropped in some note unless it's not the real one but someone from his team

The forest shown is what I cannot see a connection with the original game, overall it's great they're finally remaking CVX after so many years

The forest could be the cemetery at start after the prison, remember this game will be reamagined alot

 

[Knight of the Round]

I don't want to celebrate before I know what they have changed... I am afraid they've made it more "serious" and less over-the-top than the original.

I fail to see the problem, honestly. RE works better when it is dark and serious. I don't mind the badass moments, I just don't like it when the protagonists act like they star in a Michael Bay movie.

And yes, I always hated stuff like 'Where's everyone going? Bingo?'

So if Veronica minimizes cringe like that, or removes them entirely, I'm more than fine with that.

RE for me isn't the Bay one-liners.

It's the zombie turning its head.

The licker's saliva dropping in slow motion as it descends on you.

The save room music stopping abruptly after a window cracks.

THAT is Resident Evil for me.

What are they worst at? Looks like yet another banger

Worst not doing Dino crisis remake

Code Veronica worked specifically because it was over-the-top, imho. Was it paced like an action "B-Movie"? Sure. But I wouldn't have liked it as much if it had been "just" another Resident Evil game.

 

[anyasok]

Remake:

Please no... lol

 

[Vick]

Kind of similar to the changes Leon saw in RE4R, aside from rendering advancements. Only I preferred RE4R Leon over his RE2R model and here I prefer RE2R Claire over Veronica. I don't see as much of Jordan McEwen in her new model.

Definitely looks a little more like a mix of classic and new Claire. As long as her personality is all new Claire I don't really mind.

She looks incredible in Veronica, great update.

 

[JimmyRustler]

How can her looks change so much when the events are barely a few months after RE2? Strange...

 

[Bitstream]

Lets see how good you look after being attacked by zombies and chased by this dude for 24 hours

 

[Crimsonhead]

Must be on your side,i don't see any change at all, Lightning and graphics overall are better imo, 1:1 face model

 

[Memati187]

Honestly I am not hyped for this after the recent fuck ups. RE4remake is the only one they managed to deliver.

Now seeing that they got rid of her infiltrating umbrella hq and replaced it with that walking section is kinda bad.

At least they put hunk into this, since this is the place he was trained and he was in charge of alexias safety while escorting her in the cryo pod.
In the og, he was only mentioned by files so this is a positive. But maybe he just appears in the beginning in capturing claire and that's that.

I really hope they don't cut stuff and force another stalker into this, that would be the laziest shit ever.

 

[spookyfish]

All I wanna know, is: Wo ist ein Bild des Bandersnatch?

 

[Jesb]

She looks incredible in Veronica, great update.

She's aged significantly in 3 months. I love the Veronica model and think it's the best they've ever done though.

 

[DeepEnigma]

I think the character model is great.

 

[TGO]

Not keen on the top image, looks over rendered.
Looks more like Lara Croft with a hint of Latino thrown in.
But it's just the render and lighting evidently as other renders are more consistent.

 

[yogaflame]

I hope for psvr2 support

 

[Memati187]

All I wanna know, is: Wo ist ein Bild des Bandersnatch?

Gibt's ja noch nix dazu lol

 

[vindafarna]

All I wanna know, is: Wo ist ein Bild des Bandersnatch?

I expect it will be terrifying like Nosferatu.

 

[Jesb]

I hope moving forward they will do 3rd and first person in all their games. After requiem I don't wanna go back. It adds replay value to the game.

 

[Itchy.Tasty.]

I'm not much aware of RE lore at all.
But Claire Redfield doesn't really get featured much right?

Obviously 1 is Leon.
2nd is Chris, and 3rd Jill?

Leon is the more popular character, but if we're talking about sheer number of appearances then Chris takes the cake. He's in about 10 games? Excluding remakes.

Story-wise we haven't seen any of the major female characters since RE6 came out in 2012

Claire isn't featured as much as Leon, but she's had her share of games. It's not like she's a one-and-done like several RE protagonists (eg Sheva from RE5).

Claire has been in: RE2, RE2make, Darkside Chronicles, Revelations 2, Code Veronica and now this remake). She's also featured in some (canonical) non-game media like manga's, CGI TV shows and movies.

 

[Memati187]

Why not also mention the most important stuff at this point? Claire is also featured in a lot ("non"-canonical) indie filmmaking art, along with other fellow cast members.

"It's like a boulder rolled through here."

I wish they hadn't done this.
The voice acting for the landlady was bad enough already. Throwing in this gag just made this scene worse.

It's one thing to have a character make a joke about something Chris did after he did it (eg. Heisenberg's "boulder-punching asshole" in RE8 referencing the finale of RE5), but this was just an old lady throwing out an unnatural phrase that nobody ever says as a nod to something that doesn't happen until 11 years later.

I know, I know, it's just a joke, but it's not a good one.

Many people liked it including me and we're talking about Code Veronica here, the king of RE campiness.

I hate to invalidate an entire post, but in the original RE there are underground caverns in which you are chased by rolling boulders. If it's a reference to anything, it's that.

I hadn't considered that! Thanks man, this actually makes me feel better about it.

 

[uncreativename]

It might not be the one I'm most looking forward to, but I feel like this is definitely the game shown that the most of us are looking forward to :]. Good job, Capcom

 

[Gonzito]

I have heard that they might show the game today

Be ready

 

[Crimsonhead]

Do you know what time will be today?

 

[Gonzito]

No, all I heard is that Capcom has shown thr game to the press and influencers and the embargo apparently will be lifted today. But this is what I have heard so dont hold me responsible if it doesnt happen lol

Just saw Dusk saying on era " (8 AM PST / 11 AM EST) should include some new screenshots, I don't expect gameplay, written impressions from outlets & some videos from some influencers (without new gameplay but new details)."
Very Nice

 

[Badlucktroll]

my guess is rodrigo juan raval will be the "merchant"
