Which one is the best of the original Resident Evil trilogy?

RE2, easily.

>>713306170 (OP)
2 and it isn't close

>>713306170 (OP)
RE2 is great for the first half the game.

Personally, RE1 >re3 >re2.

>>713306170 (OP)
They are all unique in their own way.
Even tho RE2 is one of my most played games ever (N64), RE3 is the one I prefer.
I freaking love the city's atmosphere, and how everything feels so dire, also Nemy being the only boss throughout the game is something that hardly anybody does.

2, it took everything about 1 and improved it on every single metric.

>>713306170 (OP)
all flopslop
4 mogs them all

>>713306170 (OP)
They're all honestly pretty much equal. I enjoyed replaying 2 more than the others, thoughalbeit

>>713306170 (OP)
It's hands-down RE3, but RE2 comes close
>RE1
Rough first attempt. Tight for the first 15 minutes but after that you get so much ammo and healing items that they have to introduce the Hunters as a potential OHK enemy to keep you from just lazily magdumping enemies and then healing, which doesn't actually work.
>RE2
Basically just a straight expansion on everything that was in RE1, for better and worse. Enemy roster is better, areas are cooler, the plot is better, etc. etc., but you also get way more ammo, way more supplies, and the size of the areas means it's a lot safer/duller feeling: as a whole it's too big, and then individual rooms are also way easier to dodge enemies in
>RE3
Just cuts the bullshit. Past couple of games have failed to hone in on the right amount of ammo and enemies that survival horror needs, and the areas were falling apart as they wanted to have more and more, so fuck it: embrace the action and the heaps of gunning you're gonna be doing, package it in a way that it's a lot more fun and in smaller sections that still play like RE but are much more well-paced individually.

>>713306170 (OP)
3 and its not even close

>>713306170 (OP)
RE3

>>713306170 (OP)
the first one. the creepy mansion just sells it.

>>713306757
this pic is a meme, I played classic RE for the first time last year and I always had plenty of ammo and healing to deal with whatever threat

>>713306170 (OP)
>RE1
the classic that set the foundation (still not that good)
>RE2
the sequel that trimmed down the fat and had great pacing (still not that good)
>RE3
the masterpiece that was never followed up on and sits upon its own pedestal all alone, superior to all of its brothers (actually great experience)

>>713306170 (OP)
1 > 3 > 2

>>713306170 (OP)
Correct answer is 3.
1 is debatable.
2 is just a regurgitated reddit opinion.

>>713306170 (OP)
Never really thought about it but is the RE2 zombie a woman?
Softer brow than in 1, slim fingers, long nails.

1 > 2 > 3

>>713306170 (OP)
RE1.

>>713306820
>2 it took everything about 1 and improved it on every single metric.
Not by a long shot.
It simplified, streamlined and action-ified it for no reason.

>no alternative routes and endings
>very linear progression
>tons of enemies and tons of ammo

Still digging the game, but it's just hilarious to see zoomies claim 3 to be the one to turn the franchise into action.

>>713306218
RE2 with RE3's improved mechanics would have been awesome.

>>713306170 (OP)
>some dumb nigger AI-upscaled the art instead of just downloading the hi res art

>>713307340
There's more ammo in 2 and 1 than in 3 which is weird because 3 happens first before 2

You'd think Jill would siphon all of the bullets and ammo leaving Leon and Claire to dry

1 > 3 > 2

>>713313847
Nah, it makes perfect sense: Jill creates so much ammo with the crafting mechanic that she leaves more behind than she's taken

2>1>3

I dont think a single area in RE1 or RE3 has a hub area that invokes such a feel

>>713308172
Yeah they were always arcade games.

>>713306170 (OP)
Resident Evil will always be the one that started it all
Resident Evil 2 will always be the pinnacle
Resident Evil 3 will always be the start of the downfall with craftable ammo and assault rifles

>>713308172
Yeah the only time running out of ammo is a realistic problem is very early game as Chris in RE1, before you get the shotgun. Handgun is incredibly inefficient at killing zombies, you straight up can’t shoot every zombie you come across. But once you get shotgun, you can now freely blast everyone. With Jill you can just shoot everyone you see the moment you see them, and you can also do this in RE2 and 3 (with a couple exceptions, like RE2 intro you don’t have enough bullets to clear it, but if you make it to RPD you won’t ever have to skip enemies again. RE3 you can quite easily kill every enemy AND beat every optional Nemisis fight.

RE2, I don't know what happened with 3.

>>713306170 (OP)
Dino Crisis

>>713306170 (OP)
3 > 1 > 2

>>713306170 (OP)
RE1.
I love RE2, but it can feel a bit too easy and shooting gallery-ish with how much ammo you receive.

All of them are fantastic games though.
So are the remakes despite what some may say, though 3R obviously dropped the ball pretty hard.

>>713313847
I'm guessing that RE3 easy mode is canon then?

>>713306218
fpwp
2 is the most overrated RE game

>>713308172
>this pic is a meme
look up what the word means already for fuck's sake

RE1 > 2 > 3

I just have so much nostalgia for RE1. Massive part of my childhood.

>>713317201
In RE3 you do get ammo but it's almost always for guns you don't want or use, it's not clear cut like in other RE games where you reach the shotgun and now you have a Zombie blaster 9000

Enjoy getting magnum and cold grenade launcher rounds

>>713306968
So why was Leon in london anyway?

>>713306170 (OP)
I think 3 is the only one that actually lives up to the reputation the franchise has. 1 and 2 are both extremely casual, have barely any puzzles, and aren’t scary. Then suddenly you have actual survival horror and butt clenching moments for the entirety of 3, along with actual puzzles.

>>713317895
imagine dressing this /fa/ when you trying to escape a zombie filled city, pure kino

>>713317716
??? What.

RE3 gives you tons of ammo. But there’s also a lot more enemies, so you end up using it all. But freeze rounds and magnum are a trap, the true Nemisis killer is enhanced handgun ammo, it’s super cheap and efficient to make, and it makes Nemisis extremely easy since he hitstuns on every shot, meaning you have to dodge and re-position far less often. This gives you tons of free crafting mats to make shotgun shells and such for other enemies, rather than bankrupting yourself putting everything into Freeze rounds.
