Resident Evil 5 Does Not NEED A Remake, But...

Ойындар

The subject of Resident Evil 5 getting a remake has come up a lot in the wake of the RE4 Remake. I had never played RE5 before now, so I was interested to see if this seemingly divisive entry was one I was going to like or not. So in this video, I give my full thoughts on Resident Evil 5!

    the explanation for the 30min boss fight with the Uroboros Mkono is that the game being in 60fps now instead of 30fps like the consoles made it is weakpoint retreat faster causing his regen to be faster as well as soon as it retracted. its almost impossible to kill it without the rocket if you want to keep your sanity.

    Fun factoid: The "tribal" majini looking and acting the way they do is actually specifically noted in a diary entry or something of the sort, and is a weird side effect of the las plagas infection. It's called out by a young member of the tribe, and specifically noted as being super weird how all of the adults start painting themselves up like their ancestors did.

Also they may end up changing RE6 in a remake, so either they will change Jake Wesker, or replace him, but its possible they will merely redesign him to look more like wesker at the very least.

    14:30-14:55 I believe this issue is exclusive to platforms with better hardware, as the boss doesn't really have an issue dying to the flamethrower on PS3/360. Something about better frame rates just makes that boss way more durable so if you're on PC you can at least cap your FPS to make it more in line with how tanky it's supposed to be. For something like PS4 tho, rocket cheese is pretty much the only viable solution.

As was described J was using Assault Rifles and Shotguns Bosses have a range of Damage Resistances Uroboros Mikono has a default 30% damage resistance for every limb except main weak spot, which takes "normal" damage THEN certain weapons deal modified damage, Shotguns only deal 40% normal damage, and Machine Guns deal 70% Knives deal 300% The strat is to use the explosive barrel, then one player flamethrower the core while other player hacks away with knife

    It's definitely an fps issue because his weak points don't appear when using fire weapons at higher framerates. I had to lower the fps just to make the flamethrower make the weak points appear. This is also a problem with the Jill Wesker fight where you normally have 7 minutes. At higher fps the fight duration seems to shorten massively.

    The Flamethrower Uroboros fight is actually the most fun coop battle in this game. The thing people usually get wrong is that the flamethower itself won't do much damage to the boss. You use the flamethower to actually keep the boss weak points exposed while the other player/AI partner hit it's weak spots with conventional weaponry (the orange bulb things that emerge from it's tentacles while you burn the boss down).

    The tribal enemies were explained in a note. It was from the perspective of a child in the marsh section. The child talked about either umbrella or tricell when they were giving medicine to the adults, and he hid to avoid getting it. Over time the child noticed the adults getting angrier and angrier and acting weird. Then the child noticed adults adoning tribal gear and thinking it was odd because there were no festivals happening to warrant it. The child then said something along the lines of the adults not appearing human anymore along with the weird behavior. Then the child was caught and forced to take the medicine, and the rest of the note was the child losing his humanity as the medicine he was forced to take was the proginator (i think?) virus.

    I've had that oroborus glitch out and become unkillable several times, and I've had wesker at the end have the same thing happen. there's also a spot with the shipping containers where an enemy can spawn inside it and glitch things out. I do wish they could fix some of the more irritating defects. the oroborus is supposed to have the big zits you have to pop, but sometimes either one of them's invisible or doesn't exist. and the animation's really bad on him too to show his bigger vulnerable spot. which is the same thing that happens with wesker.

I've played alone and unlocked EVERYTHING, both on PS3 back in the day and on Steam the last few years. Alone and with friends. I just love it and I believe people just like to talk shit about it because internet. I don't know how a RE5 Remake could be, but the team will have a harder job trying to make it better than the original (which was very naturally accomplished with RE4R, IMO).

Re5 took goods of Re4 while cleaning up some of the mistakes the game made. All in all, Re5 was a really good game. Re5 isn’t that scary because it’s suppose to be game about hope and revelation. That seemed to be the theme. Also this was suppose to wrap up the finale of the Wesker vs Chris story

  • @SaltedMallows

    I am a massive RE5 fan, ive played it on PS3, PC, PS4 and have done all sorts of runs for it for years. It's unapologetically one of my favorite RE games and I have played the classics and I love RE Outbreak as well as a side note. However I do believe a Remake should be welcome, often i am opposted to Sequels like I don't really want one for Bloodborne for alot of reasons I just think Bloodborne is a very complete series as it is, perhaps you have similar ideas for RE5. RE5 is amazing but it's been 15 years and everything that has been done or yielded from RE5 has already been done, there have been spinoffs using the RE4/5 format and the things learned of it like RE6 and Revelations. While I don't think everything about the recent RE Remake games are perfect adaptations, I think they do bring new things to the table about the original source material. When you think of it at a macro scale RE5 is to this day still one of the greatest couch co-op 3rd person survival horror shooters of all time, there's not much competition because there simply arent many that capture the same energy as this franchise. Perhaps a similar game of the time that sort of does is DeadSpace3 but RE4/5 and DeadSpace have alot of cross pollination going on. There is something special about the co-op horror shooter genre, i would even say Outbreak online is a very early instance of this genre, give it a try via emulator fan servers obsvr if you haven't already. The dependency on one another 1 to 1, against the terrors clashing with the smooth co-operative combat actions and the interplay between players surrounding objectives while also having moments for characters to simply enjoy taking in the world with one another is just a bit of a rare in gaming. I would love to see RE5 one of the best co-op survival horrors to do it come bac for a remake just to stir up the current landscape of co-operative shooters and offer both the industry and consumers something new to consider to maybe find new broader appeal with this genre. I wouldn't mind if RE5 had segments that sought to be more horrifying legitimately, and I'd love to see more nuanced co-op dependency beyond just sharing items and ammo with one another online or guns offline. I really do appreciate some of the fluid instances that happen in outbreak where you might have to hold a door to prevent zombies from breaking in and over running your group when in doors, or even lock picking. I really did appreciate this aspect of Lost in Nightmares RE5 having more of this kind of gameplay where jill is the one who has the skills to pick a door lock. The players have to co-ordinate a bit more to kill specific enemy types, and while i do think these segments could be better it was a refreshing change of pace to the constant nuts to wall action of the main campaign. It has that sort of calm that befalls the original classic survival horror games but no mistake it is still RE5. TLDR: I'd love to see an RE5 remake because I accept original RE5 for what it is, we've truly gotten everything we could get out of it i think and I'd love to have more of this format but with new innovations that could possibly stimulate the broader games industry to have another chance to see that people really do like co-op adventure shooters with survival horror elements.

That brought my love for this franchise, that I wouldn’t discover again til 7, afterwards I’d play the remakes and ever since I’ve loved this series, so much so I went out and got a real re4 inspired Bowie knife. This series means so much to me and it’s all thanks to this game.
