Claire Redfield: 6 More Reasons Capcom Should Remake Code Veronica For Next Gen Consoles (& 4 Reasons They Shouldn't)

<br>Remaking Code Veronica on next gen consoles would provide this cult classic with a visual update that it has long deserved. It has been over 20 years since the game's initial release in February 2000 on Sega's Dreamcast. Although, visually enhanced in 2011, the graphics don't hold up well to today's standa<br><br> <br>Resident Evil 3 Remake , still fresh from release in April, has successfully continued to enrich the Resident Evil universe by recreating past installments of the series. With a rumored Resident Evil 4 Remake in the works, and potentially new story elements that will link the plot to the Nemesis monster in Resident Evil 3 , there is still plenty in Resident Evil' s past worth delving into with more insi<br><br> <br>Other rumors suggest Resident Evil 4 will get the remake treatment next. Is that necessary? It has been ported numerous times in various HD quality enhancements. That said, some things cannot be fixed with mere graphical makeovers. So if the game really is getting remade , here are some things Capcom should, and should not, do with<br><br> <br>Resident Evil 4 Remake could even help tie-in the storyline to Resident Evil 5 much better in moving the timeline forward, and in hopefully creating more relevance and history between the T-Virus and Las Plagas parasite, and much of what has transpired in the Resident Evil plot since then. Resident Evil 5 's storyline also stood out as slightly odd in its own way, given that its plot focuses on the origins of the T-Virus, or Progenitor plant which it came from, in West Africa where it was originally discovered, but its inclusion in the game is mini<br><br> <br>In the mid-2000s, everybody and their mothers wanted to add in quick time events. It was supposed to immerse players more. While they still exist today, a lot of companies have learned not to be so strict with prompts meaning that a missed button press or two won’t result in a game o<br><br> <br>Capcom doesn't have to keep altering beloved classics. Instead of keeping fans locked in REmake territory, why not focus on bringing us into the next generation of Resident Evil with RE8 and beyond? The entertainment industry, whether video games or movies, should try and take more risks rather than constantly relying on remakes. It's getting to be a bit too m<br><br> <br>On the subject of the store, let’s get rid of the random assortment of the same types. There are so many 9MM pistols and shotguns in the game. Buying one only to have a better model come around later feels like the money invested in the previous model to be a wa<br><br> <br>Breath of the Wild 2 seems to follow a similar trajectory, except Hyrule Castle is floating in the sky this time. See, it makes all the difference. Except it doesn’t really, and I can’t help but feel that potentially relegating Princess Zelda into the role of a helpless damsel in distress once again does a disservice to what is easily the best iteration of this character to date. In many ways, Zelda is the star of the show, especially in the previous game’s flashbacks where her struggle with accepting royal power and the inevitable loss of her friends becomes a crux for the unfolding narrat<br><br> <br>Since then, shops have opened up in other games, usually through New Game+ modes. While it might be tempting to just do that again without clerks, they shouldn't get rid of The Merchant. His warping around may not make sense but he is as big a part of the game as Leon<br><br> <br>Breath of the Wild followed the evolution of RPGs across the industry - open-world, 3D, and filled with side objectives and little tidbits to do besides the main story. The difference was that it revolutionized open-world games, as evidenced by the titles it has since inspired like Genshin Impact, Immortals Fenyx Rising, and Horizon Forbidden West, but Nintendo’s been there and done that… twice now. Whatever comes after Breath of the Wild 2 will determine Zelda’s future trajectory in a rather significant way. For current generations, BOTW is what put the series on the map. I had friends that played the DS and Game Boy ones at school but it was never a part of my childhood. What really drew my eye to the series was BOTW. Granted, I’m 21 so in my age group, I’m no doubt an anomaly. I imagine that for those much younger, however, Zelda is known as that open-world jaunt on the Swi<br><br> <br>If Zelda goes back to 2D, it stands alongside the indie scene. It showcases that these older takes shouldn’t be abandoned due to their age. Many other games are doing this already, but none have the clout of Zelda. Going back to 2D with its next main entry - not a remake, remaster, or spin-off - would set a major precedent: not every new triple-A title needs to splash out to make a big blockbuster. It could be a hybrid like Octopath Traveler with its 2D sprites on top of its paper-like background, or it could go the full mile and be completely 2D. Whatever it does, going back would be refreshing for gaming and <a href="https://Adventuregameland.com/posts/nintendo-s-unsung-heroes-the-finest-adventures-beyond-mario">Adventuregameland.com</a>; it could pave the way for other studios to do similar things with their own catal<br>
