Does this fill anyone else with unbridled rage?
How can you be this detached from reality that you believe inferior remakes completely replace the original product to the point you don't even want to sell them for free money anymore?

https://www.videogameschronicle.com/news/capcom-took-a-lot-of-convincing-to-bring-the-original-resident-evil-games-to-gog-exec-says/

However, according to a new interview with The Game Business, GOG‘s senior business development manager Marcin Paczynski says Capcom was initially against the idea, and was more interested in getting players to try out the modern remakes of each game.

“Capcom were like, ‘we have all of those remakes. It’s already the superior experience to those games’,” recalled Paczynski, who says he was one of the GOG members who led the project.

“They didn’t really see the value in bringing back the vanilla versions. It took a lot of convincing that there is an audience that has a lot of memories about those games, and would love to experience exactly the same game again. Thankfully, we were able to convince them.”

>on GOG
More like sell them for free lmao thanks for the vidya Crapcom

And people are like "oh nooo, remakes don't replace the originals ;) you're being paranoid"

corporations saying and acting like corporations?

>>723340102 (OP)
the remakes are better tho, i wish capcom would just trash those old games and pretend they never existed. only RE4 style over the shoulder games should exist. I will play RE1 one day once they remake it like RE4.

>>723340102 (OP)
Capcom is now a western studio.

>>723340818
>i will only play RE1 once they remake the remake and add ots camera and DLC weapons and gatcha rolls for new cosmetics and a season pass with Peter Griffin and he dances funny

RE3make isn't even a good game, let alone a good remake

>>723341060
This holy fuck

>>723341060
They cut out more in RE2 remake than RE3 remake but because most people only play through the game once you will notice it a lot more in the RE3 remake since you can only play through the game as jill anyway.

>>723340763
I think it's just the complete disregard for their former projects and legacy. Not wanting to be proud of their origins or former contributions to a huge industry doesn't sit right with me.

>>723340102 (OP)
execs have always been out of touch, particularly the braindead zombies that run Capcom
that's always been the case
at least we're getting companies like gog that are actually able to communicate to these clowns.

Nah just you, nostalgiafaggot

>>723341245
my man.
did you forget that Square lost all the renders and materials from FFVII? every game company was like that back in the '90s.
>hey, we just made an amazing game that's successful the world over. should we keep the source and materials?
>nah, that project's done. onwards and upwards!

>>723340729
they literally don't replace them tho
like REmake is 100% designed with the assumption in mind that you have already played RE1
RE0 references a place that doesn't exist in 2make, meaning it and REmake are in a separate timeline from the other remakes
you cannot replace any of them

>>723340102 (OP)
But they're superior as fuck

>>723340102 (OP)
Every Japanese company is like this and always has been. Except maybe Nintendo, but they're cocksuckers in a million other ways. This is why so many old games don't have source code or assets backed up anywhere. They weren't "lost." The devs just didn't give a shit. Once it was out the door and shipped, delete that shit and move on to something else.

>>723341456
it just means the old games are no longer canon.

>>723341456
How does RE2 remake even work in canon anyway? From what I remember both Leon and claire fight and kill Birkin in all of their playthroughs so what the fuck?

>>723340102 (OP)
This reminds of the Squareenix executives that couldn't understand why people didn't appreciate the visual "upgrades" in those Final Fantasy mobile ports.

>>723341720
>>723341902
'Canon' in RE isn't real.
In RE 'canon' both Chris's and Jill's route in RE1 happened.
And of course in RE2 both Leon and Claire solve the same puzzles, fight the same monsters, etc.
Everything is canon and nothing is, depending on whatever the next game decides, just don't worry about it.

can they buy a new yacht with those?

>>723340102 (OP)
No because I don't have autism. If it bothered me that much, I'd just emulate them or pull out my copies, It's not like it's difficult.

>>723340102 (OP)
Capcom is really going down the fucking toilet

>>723342860
Cutscenes and text lore are usually canon, gameplay isnt 100%. for example you never really get bit in real canon.

>>723341216
RE2 scenario system was a gimmick anyway, leon A/claire B always felt wrong and insignificant

>>723345925
It felt wrong because it was non canon, Claire A and Leon B always was canon but it was fun to see it the other way around and it added more replayability.

>>723340102 (OP)
Game quality aside but apart from modern redesign and QoL stufg then dont remakes use regular TPS perspective while vanilla games use fixed camera angles and entire games are designed around this? Like just this makes those games almost completly different experiences lol. I never played RE titles so thats just my observation from stuff ive seen.

>>723340102 (OP)
To all those faggots parroting "THE OLD VERSION STILL EXISTS" let this be a window into the mindset of these companies. And NEVER criticize someone for disliking remakes ever again.

>>723345925
They cut out most of the B1 scenario as well.

Jap boomers need to be strung up. None of them are gamers in these companies.

>>723346276
Capcom are californians

>>723346420
Show me a single shred of evidence that the movers and shakers in capcom are white mutts. They're just chink suits looking for a payday and fuck everyone else, don't need to be a mutt to be so.

>>723346248
Why the fuck did they put a lame ass entrance in sewers in the remake to the secret lab when the OG had a cool bond lair type entrance in a abandoned factory?

>>723340102 (OP)
They were convinced in the end weren't they? Anyone trying to bait with this article are accidentally projecting how much they're spooked by their own shadow.

why are we pretending this isn't true? People are always saying REmake replaced RE1 and tell people not to bother with it. Now it's wrong cause Capcom says so?

>>723346980
It's re2 and 3 that are the contentious issue.

>>723347059
And 4. What an unnecessary remake.

>>723345014
You can, by Yawn, and there are consequences and a cure. Rebecca offers to heal Chris in other cutscenes and the outcome changes if he's below 100% health. Sherry becomes infected in RE2, Jill becomes infected in RE3, and Leon becomes infected in RE4.

>>723340102 (OP)
Rage? No, that's retarded. I only feel pure disappoinment.

>>723346420
That explains why the new degames are made for mouthbreathers KEK

Not really I have already realized most of these fuckers have no fucking clue what they are doing these faggots could literally have a team of 5-6 autist old school niggers shitting out old style re games and making a gorillion but naah. Fuck these faggots, nuke Japan and nuke the US for good measure too.

>>723340102 (OP)
i agree. remake4 is better than the original clunky trash with tank controls from 2005

>>723340102 (OP)
Yeah. I like the remakes, but 1. I prefer the originals and 2. they're vastly different experiences so I want to play them all. Fucking dickheads.

>>723340102 (OP)
I'd rather replay RE4R over RE4 because 4 is super easy. Most of my death in OG were from QTEs.
