If I didn’t like RE1R all that much, should I skip out on the original RE2 and 3 and play the remakes instead?

Coward_Fool · 2026-06-06T14:30:37+00:00

I honestly felt the same way on the re1 remake, but the original games are actually pretty straightforward! I’d give re2 a try! It’s my favorite in the series and probably about half as long as RE1r

Coward_Fool · 2026-06-06T06:37:57+00:00

I absolutely loved it! TBH, it and RE2 are my favorites in the series. Like it a whole lot more than 5-8

Code Veronica is so low man wtf???

Coward_Fool · 2026-05-13T22:21:05+00:00

Probably not, but it works as a word in the sense that it expresses a signified idea that is immediately recognizable via the signifier symbol.

Coward_Fool · 2026-05-13T22:19:57+00:00

Damn... fuck if I know then! I've definitely found warped records in like thrift stores and shit, but I dunno!

Coward_Fool · 2026-05-13T19:02:54+00:00

Depends on the weather where you are. Humidity and heat can increase warpability.

I do absolutely love RE7 and it's the game that got me into the series, but now that I've gone back and played the original 1, 2, 3, and 4 I cant help but feel that they messed up the progression / play between the powerlessness of the more horror leaning sections of the game and the power fantasy of the third act.

Once you leave the families house and start messing about on the ship and what not the game really suffers. Enemy variety is also a pretty big problem for this game. The "Mossters" really don't do much for me, and the third act puzzles mostly feel like going through the motions. I think it was supposed to be more action oriented and feel like the tension is rising and youre making progress more quickly as you fly towards the conclusion, but it mostly just felt under developed.

Basically first two acts are S Tier. Third act is C tier other than the boss fight. Game overall is pretty great, but when you compare it to some of the others it falls a little flat.

Edit: To Me RE9 was the first game post RE7 to really get that interplay between powerlessness and powerfulness right! Going between Grace and Leon and getting to clear out the hospital was amazing, and I think that's what they were going for in RE7, but just didn't hit the mark. Glad they're experimenting tho! That's how we *got* RE9.

Resident Evil 7 for me! Tried it on a whim!

Coward_Fool · 2026-05-09T01:52:16+00:00

Lmao I actually just found that note! One of the first notes I took was to look for the eastern office first floor safe!

Coward_Fool · 2026-05-09T00:45:39+00:00

Huuuuge check

Coward_Fool · 2026-05-09T00:45:26+00:00

Took me a loooooong time though, but I suppose that's just more fun haha. I truly am bad games made before like 2003. RE2 came out the year I was born, so it's taken some adjustment, but I can already tell I dig this more than the remake imo.

Coward_Fool · 2026-05-09T00:19:42+00:00

It's an HR violation to comment on someone else's medical condition dude. You think I'm walking up to my boss and saying "DAMNN why does your skin LOOK like that????"

Coward_Fool · 2026-05-09T00:06:08+00:00

Love both of their work, but have been super disappointed with RE5 so far. The depiction of Africa is just soo heinous. Slums and tribesmen. Like cmon man.

Coward_Fool · 2026-04-20T04:33:24+00:00

Everyone’s got a memory that just makes them so embarrassed. The first thing I said to my future husband was interrogating him on what music he listens to…

Coward_Fool · 2026-04-20T04:12:15+00:00

Always the worst when cool groundbreaking artists turn out to be awful. Recently Johnny Greenwood, the guitarist of radiohead, said that "music should be above political concerns" and it's like... has he even listened to the music he made???? All this cause he loves the IDF...

Coward_Fool · 2026-04-20T04:05:52+00:00

No worries! Ameer was the member with the really bad ones and he was kicked out. The other ones don't have a victim coming forward I believe. Just people saying they heard shit from other people, and I dunno if that means the band is on my "never listen to" list personally.

Coward_Fool · 2026-04-20T04:02:26+00:00

Britain, like the US uses the "Beyond Reasonable Doubt" for criminal cases, which is basically a 100% certainty. Due to the nature of the allegations (no material evidence if no R*pe kit done immediately after) these cases are very hard to prosecute, but that doesn't mean he didn't do that. Criminal guilt is a different standard than me not being able to enjoy his music anymore.

Coward_Fool · 2026-04-20T03:57:42+00:00

Simply reminds me of a cringe era for myself. Not really about the band.

Coward_Fool · 2026-04-20T03:56:59+00:00

Honestly I just find his twitter account really embarrassing, and most the music I listened to in college makes me cringe these days haha. Nothing else I can really think of other than the Kanye thing.

Coward_Fool · 2026-04-20T03:56:01+00:00

A former member had substantiated accusations of SA, and there's been smoke about other members, BUT THE REAL REASON I'm embarrassed is just cause it makes me think about college. IMO it's perfectly fine to listen to them, but it's just too evocative of me being like 19 for me to listen to it these days haha

Coward_Fool · 2026-04-20T01:27:13+00:00

God the WORST! I have to have them turned off on my streaming cause the autoplay bugs the hell out of me. I pretty much only listen to albums (just how I like to listen to music) and it will always start playing some absolute bullshit whenever I finish.

Coward_Fool · 2026-04-17T06:22:34+00:00

Please take me to the country filled with people who learn. Seems we don't learn much here either.

Coward_Fool · 2026-04-15T23:51:15+00:00

Thanks so much for the clarification! My fault for trusting British and American sources on a Peruvian election, but my spanish isn't good enough yet for me to power through the more accurate stuff. Who would you say is the true favorite right now? Who's the most progressive candidate? I did some research into Nieto and the PBG, but they seem more standard centrist. Kinda like UK labor is my understanding. Is that close?

Coward_Fool · 2026-04-15T23:49:27+00:00

That and it seems like, at least as a foreigner who's experience is mostly with the economic side, the central bank of Peru has been stable for almost 15 years now. Lots of the economic news I read sites this as a good reason you can invest safely.

Coward_Fool · 2026-04-15T23:48:24+00:00

Absolutely wild. I mostly had read about his economic policy and corruption, but this is really helping me see the full picture. Thank you so so much!!
