it does not suck, there ar eplaces that is good and there are places that feel generic and not "RESIDENT EVIL" caliber

NegativeCreep4274977d ago (Edited 4977d ago )

Because if you do, you will incur the loss of an opinion on N4G, by way of losing a bubble or two.

Constructive opinion? or pure fanboy opinion? It doesn't matter. You'll be the minority and lose a bubble one way or the other.

GamerElite4977d ago

That pretty much sums it up.

ritsuka6664977d ago (Edited 4977d ago )

Why are you defending mediocre garbage like Resident Dogshit 6? Get a serious brain checkup people, this game is a trainwreck and deserves all hate. Get over it this game is shit and you know it.

GTRrocker6664977d ago

Stop insulting dogshit by comparing it to resident evil 6 please

ShaunCameron4977d ago

Because it's trendy to hate anything that's popular. Or in the case of RE, hate an established IP that decides to take a different direction from what its fanbase are used to.

HarryMasonHerpderp4977d ago

The only thing trying to be trendy is Resident Evil 6 by selling its soul to appeal to the masses.

ape0074977d ago

i liked resi 6 overall but my problem with it is not only the change of direction but the QUALITY of some section, some places feel cheap, not well done like resi 4, anyway resi6 is a nice\fun game

Lord_Sloth4977d ago

If a series stays the same, it gets butchered for not changing. If a series tries something new it gets butchered for abandoning it's soul.

Damned if ya do, damned if ya don't.

At least RE hasn't changed to the point of not even remotely looking like a member of the family ala DmC. RE6 looks like a faster, more modern 5 which looked like 4 which was a great shift for the series.

Sure, some peeps may be angry about 6 being so different but it could always be worse.

caseh4977d ago

Personally I don't think Capcom have shifted the RE games away from their roots as much as Square Enix have done with the FF games this gen.

Regardless, its bound to happen. People are constantly whining how <insert name here> is a cut and paste job of previous game in the series...the industry lacks innovation blah blah yet as soon as a franchise shifts its focus it gets blown to pieces by the media.

Apparently it would seem that only new IPs can be innovative without p*ssing off the majority of its 'fan-base'

ZoyosJD4977d ago

Games like Bioshock Infinite, AC3, and a classic example zelda: MM seem to be counterpoints to this.

That balance is difficult to achieve, which is why I applaud the few that can handle it.

caseh4977d ago (Edited 4977d ago )

@ZoyosJD

You see the reaction that Nintendo got to Zelda: Wind Waker when they released screenshots of the cell shaded graphics a few years back. That was a person favourite of mine as Nintendo had shown videos of Twilight Princess (it hadn't been named then, just a tech demo on Gamecube) then announced Zelda: WW

People were killing themselves in the streets, it was actually a good game that I never fully got into but I digress, god help any dev that decides on a different path for an established franchise...DEMON BEGONE, WE SHALL VANQUISH THEE WITH FIRE! BURN AT THE STAKE!

jghvhv4977d ago

Some parts of it are ok and some are complete crap.The camera and QTE's were friggin annoying.The enemies were crap too.Resident Evil Revelations on 3DS dumps on this game.

ape0074977d ago

some enemy models are unbelievably crappy, just got doom 3 bfg and the enemies (from 2004) blows resi 6 away

MeatAbstract4977d ago

People say it's because it's not RE anymore.

To be honest, I think there's nothing wrong with a franchise changing direction - as long as they do it well.

I only tried the demo of RE6 but from that I knew I wouldn't purchase it.

The controls were horrible I thought. The imagery and scenery looked awful and the way they slapped this dark grainy atmosphere over it (in Leon's campaign anyway).

Chris' part felt terrible to play. I couldn't even finish it.

As I said, I won't throw in the whole 'IT'S NOT RE' argument. People said that when 4 came out but I thought 4 was fantastic. Personally, I felt it was exactly what the franchise needed. But if you're gonna go down the 100% action route, look at other games out there that do it far, far better.

Oh….wow, RE6 huh….urm, cool, just what we always wanted.

EW
NOOOOOOOOOO
In what mind make sense to do this with the worse game on the series 🤦🏿

DivineHand125503d ago

I loved Resident Evil 4 back in the day and enjoyed Resident Evil 5 even though I had to do co-op to beat the final boss. Shiva was just too dumb.

Resident Evil 6 on the other hand, was so bad that I stopped playing after an hour in the game. That was before I even played any high-quality single-player games outside of Mass Effect, Portal, and Skyrim. I can't imagine playing RE6 now.

Chances are their next remake will be 5.

Profchaos503d ago

I just don't get why it's already on the platforms via BC unless it's a remake which would piss everyone off as fans are hoping for either the original game or code veronica to get the remake treatment

CrimsonWing69503d ago

Isn’t it already backwards compatible?
