Resi 4 WAS the first mainline entry to really abandon any semblance of survival horror. Later entries in the series past RE1 started to throw more ammo and health pickups at you, but they still retained fixed camera angles, limited inventory space and light puzzling as core gameplay features/mechanics and didn't have hordes of enemies dropping loot or over the top QTE sequences.

I don't know why RE2 is exempt from your logic, either. It's my favourite Resi game but Leon could carry a massive arsenal with him in the second half of the game, which grew exponentially more powerful with the custom parts you could pick up. Same for Claire.

I'd mostly attribute that to the fact that Leon B is in some ways the more difficult half, and his arsenal isn't too powerful outside of the Magnum. Claire's definitely pales in comparison, with Acid Rounds and the Bowgun being mere shadows of the Magnum and the Shotgun, making her not too strong outside of Flame Rounds in the Umbrella Lab.

Resident Evil 2 does suffer from balance issues, especially once you get down into the Sewers and the game becomes beyond easy due to your supplies, but it still gets points due to the fact of how the RCPD still holds up on multiple runs and the overall attempt was still towards horror, while Nemeis and Code Veronica did have a dogma of action within the design team.

ORC doesn't have the resident evil name in it so it doesn't matter what happens in the game.
Resident Evil 4, 5 and 6 are shit by resident evil standards but pretty good if they were to be standalone games.
There are plenty of side games that were shit AND had the resident evil name on them.

I still feel like it's a cash-in on Capcom's end though. This aint no Rainbow Six Siege where the devs are trying their hardest to make a good game and adding new features for free in spite of Ubisoft clearly cutting their budget and staff to barebones levels.

Capcom will probably dump this out, provide one patch after 6 months, fart out a DLC and that's it.

RE4 turned a scary zombie game into a generic third person shooter
like most plebs, they ate it up and praised it as the "best in the series" because they never enjoyed resident evil games in the first place. the same way plebs praised mass effect 2, where EA turned a promising RPG into a generic third person shooter, and in the same summer shitposted alpha protocol to death upon release, when infact it was the most advanced RPG in a long time

like i said, plebians have shit taste. best in that series was unity, but you faggots shitposted that game to death, even though it advanced the tech/ combat/ everything about the series, and because of that the entire series took 15 steps back, and syndicate turned out to be completely dumbed down and reverted back to button mash combat

Maybe if you were 10 and had no prior exposure to any sort of videogame that was even remotely dark in its presentation. If you weren't suplexing regular villagers after having just plowed through a 50 strong congregation of them, you were tapping X to run away from a giant Salazar statue or having a dog help you fight a giant troll. The only thing that could ever be considered even slightly unnerving about RE4 were the Regenerators. That's it.

The game regularly forced you into situations where you'd have to confront and kill dozens of enemies just to progress, too; the antithesis of survival horror.

RE4 is a good game but it clearly marked the beginning of the direction the series would take from that point forward and bears little to no similarities with the classic games. If you think otherwise, you need your brain examined.

There's no threat coming from any of the alleged foes in RE4, you are unlikely to die when you're hurt plenty, you always have a physical or mechanical edge over the threats. In the original RE games a few bites and it's all over, nevermind the fact the fear came from your avatar being eaten alive (a lot of people got gud just to never see the dog blowing your neck up).

In the prison, with the novistadors, invisible giant roaches. It should be the scariest moment of your life, Mimic the game, yet they don't do shit, because you just spam the qte button and avoid main contact. REmake had a similar type of enemy but you only could defend yourself for sure once.

Literally the only scary part in all of RE4 is when you're going uphill to do the church entrance puzzle in the back and you're surprised by two shining eyes glaring at you from the ground, the dogs basically. Dogs that want to eat you, not just kill you

As for RE2 you could die at any moment before halfway if you were careless or just a neophyte (the original newfag traps were the archive room, the RPD right wing hallway). No checkpoint, no try again, just you, the save ribbon and whatever you were able to manage. You really couldn't play RE or RE2 for leisure, casually in the same way vee considers casual.

You totally can do it with RE4, play it as a complete fucking noob with no notion of the combat and still somewhat get through, except maybe for the chainsaw dude, which was totally added to cover up for the fact they did realize the game was fucking broken.

Honestly I want to see this game end up being decent, but seeing as how it appears to be a low-budget spin-off that doesn't even have Resident Evil in the title, I have little faith.

No, that happened because RE5's development was fucked. It was originally going to have a horror atmosphere, like 4.

Circular reasoning, champ. You're just as valid in saying RE1 started it since it's literally the first game. Stop being dull.

Outbreak is literally an autism magnet.
>>
>>340758942
Yes, just like RE4 was originally supposed to be horror. But it wasn't.

And it sold very fucking well. So it became an action series with mild horror elements from that point on.

>>340759051
I don't think Circular Reasoning means what you think it means.

The fact is that RE4 was the first mainstream action oriented RE game, and it sold very well. Better than the previous entries, irk. So, from that point on, more and more, if not exclusively, action oriented RE games surfaced.

RE4 is to blame, but that doesn't make it a bad game.
>>
>>340759252
The whole "let's """BLAME""" one game thing is retarded fan bullshit that doesn't exist.

So much of RE4 is in RE1 so again, you can apply the exact same argument. If you want to dick measure against fans of post RE4 then just do so.

RE5 had no horror atmosphere, and the enemies were just barely creepy. Note, that I'm not talking about the Kijuju or whatever. Literally nothing else was scary. So your "mild horror elements" is more like a half-baked singular element.

And fuck off, RE4 was horror.

What the fuck are you even talking about?

All I'm saying is that RE4 was the first action RE game and it sold really well, and after that, nearly every entry in the franchise is an action game in some manner, if not completely.

If RE4 is the sole reason for it, it's hard to say, but to even imply that it had nothing to do with it is just being delusional

I don't know if I made it clear, but I don't think RE4 is a bad game at all. It's my favorite in the series, actually. But that doesn't change the fact that everything went to shit after RE4.

And in RE4's case, it wasn't. Horror is supposed to evoke a feeling of helplessness, fear or despair in the person experiencing it. It's hard for me to be horrified by that chainsaw wielding Ganados when I know I can just shoot him once in the face and then roundhouse kick him.

>>340761330
they are when they give you enough to supplies to ignore any of the actual horror elements

They're survival horror games. They're just easier ones than RE1. I think Japan is the only territory that actually shipped with a 'Nightmare' mode.

>braindead

They're functionally identical to RE1 at a fundamental level. Same tank controls, fixed camera angles, types of enemies and methods of attack. They're just easier. But hindsight is 20/20. People can still play the games and run out of supplies/die.

4 happened and doomed the series forever. Fuck 4
>>
>>340762234
I'm not saying it doesn't. My point is that every RE after 4 was shit. And it's because they're trying to do RE4 all over again or to top it.

>>340762304
I was comparing them because the gameplay for RE4 is vastly different from the ones before. And it's the gameplay of 4 that every sequel copies.
>>
>>340762057
Because they are spin-offs and not main numbered titles.

>>340762484
That's assuming the player knows exactly where all of the supplies are and how to utilise them properly. Like I said, hindsight is 20/20. It's easy for people in this thread who've probably played the games 200 times to call the game 'braindead' when they can run through the game with their eyes closed, but newer players are going to have a harder time managing.

RE4 never stops throwing supplies, money and loot at you the entire time, but nobody calls it 'braindead'

>>
>>340758942
4 did not have a horror atmosphere fuck off with this reinventing history shit. It was an action game, it is responsible for the shitty direction RE has taken and shitters like you praising it are why RE and survival horror is dead
>>
>>340763065
I don't deny that. I, in fact, do enjoy RE6 as third person shooter.

But the less than stellar direction the franchise took was directly influenced, if not caused, by RE4.
>>
They want to attract the Call of Duty crowd because that's where the money is.

What makes me laugh is they bullshitted the old fans by telling them they didn't have the money or resources to commit to a project creating games like the old ones, and that they didn't think they'd sell well (using poor sales of Outbreak File 1 and 2 to justify this) yet fucking Operation Racoon City and Umbrella Corps and Resident Evil 6 to a degree sold really bad and are universally hated by most "fans"...so even though they surely had their expectations shat on...they still keep making this trash. Why?

Imagine the kind of game they could make using todays shit. The originals were already pretty decent designed with a potato...REmake is fucking great and that was designed for a console that basically has down syndrome compared to the others..

..it's a sad day. The next RE you'll see will be some on rails VR shooter or a mobile game or a card game or some shit.

Sales doesn't indicate quality. Sales merely indicates stringing along a fan base of casual cucks with hype and bullshit marketing campaigns. RE fans will keep eating up the shit delivered under the RE name...it doesn't mean they enjoy them.

Also 2.4m and 6.5m are really low fucking sales figures for AAA games released by an AAA publisher. Shit like Stardew Valley and Overtrash got 1m sales and then you've got GTAV and FO4 getting 12m each on the first day..

Again it doesn't change the fact that the games were fucking shit and it's almost universally acknowledged by everyone.

But you're a typical /v/ shitposter so I don't expect you to give a shit anyway.
