    I'm hardcore Resident Evil fan (fave is RE4) and i'm not sure how to feel about this one. It's way too short. Graphics are as good as RE2 Remake. 4-5 Hours for full price is just not enough. Removing content is generally bad idea. For the love of god i hope they don't mess up RE4 remake (that is possibly coming 2022.

    I have two problems with this game 1. it's way too short 2. only boss you fight against is Nemesis. Everything else works well, voice acting is good, sound design is nice, graphics are nice. Hopefully they don't ruin "Resident Evil 4 Remake" because that's best RE game ever made.

    Having never played the original, and playing this right after RE2 Remake it fell a little short. Solid enough game play and settings, however didn't quite hit the mark as well as RE2

    pros:
    - RE3 has optimisation if comparison with RE2
    - no brightness issues as in RE2 cons: - RE3 is too short, for standalone game - weapons too weak, exept rpg. - No shotgun. - zombie after cutscene near the police station, Capcom are you serious? 2 full clips of rifle to stop it? P.S. Next games which Capcom must remake: RE Code: Veronica RE The Umbrella Chronicles RE    pros:

    No puzzles, no iconic places from original, watered down Nemesis, incredibly short. multiplayer sucks.
    What is there is good, sometimes great but it feels rushed and it shows.
    If you can get it for 20 Euros, then it's worth it.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. バイオハザードシリーズはRE2しかしたことがないプレイヤーのレビューとして見てください。
    RE2との比較を交えての感想です。

    本作はRE2とほぼ同時刻に警察である、ジルを主人公とした作品である。
    ジルは真夜中に知り合いから電話を受けその直後にとても大柄な男(ネメシス)？が自宅のアパートの壁を突き破り、命からがら逃げ惑いながら、外に出る。
    外はよくわからないが、パニックになっていた。
    ゾンビ化した人、そのゾンビから逃げる人などなど・・・

    終始ネメシスから逃げながら反撃を繰り返すというストーリーのため、ボスなどの種類は少なめです。
    RE2と比べると謎解き要素はかなり少なく、その代わりにスペースキーで避けるが追加されたので比較的アクション要素が強くなっています。

    問題視されているボリュームはやはり少なく感じます。

    大抵の人であれば10時間もあればクリアすることができるでしょう。
    なれていない人でも15時間でクリアが可能かと思います。

    3という原作があるためか、ストーリーを増やすってのはできないにしてもサブクエストやストーリーの掘り下げを丁寧にして入るがもっと深堀りをするべきであったのでは？と思いました。

    ですがアクションや恐怖を煽るような演出はさすがのバイオ作品と言えるのではないでしょうか。

    短い作品と捉えるか、手軽にクリアができる作品と捉えるかは人によってまちまちですが、個人的には1周したら満足してしまうので、セールが合ったときに購入がベストなタイミングではないかなと思います。    … Expand

    Bad really bad Capcom, Re 2 Remake is a masterpiece but Re 3 remake is worst than original game, cut content because Capcom need money selling skins on really awful multiplayer game called "Resistance".

    Its a very disapointed for me, and more bad news with Re 4 remake, i prefer Code Veronica remake like Re 2 remake, no more 3 person shooters on Re series please....

    The real reason that the fanbase wanted an remake, it's because the series advanced in to very strange direction, but playing again the progatonist: Jill Valentine, in a expanded Raccoon City, with a Nemesis that chasing you in a large city to explore, during your research and sovling puzzles with action oriented was the dream of many fans, but you dont even visit a quarter of the city.
    Most of the assets was recycled from the previous Resident Evil 2 Remake and replaced the original locations.
    Most of the routes are less variated, they looks an dungeon, also too linear with too many cinematic scenes that interrupt your play.
    Some creatures, especially the grave digger (an giant worm) was removed (even in Umbrella Chronicles was included)
    Many bonus costumes of Jill Valentine was cut, only one unlockable (and classic avaiable via DLC but censored) and the minigame "The Mercenaries: Operation Mad Jackal" was removed and replaced with an mediocre online VS called Resistance for follow the trend of "Dead by Daylight".
    RE3R it's a pretty game, but beside the cinematic sequences and UE4 graphics, it doesnt give any fun as the previous RE2R.
    RE3 was supposed to follow the same concept of the previous 2 games, but instead to takes place inside an building, this time you was in the middle of the city.
    Still hard to believe that after 25 years, this is the kind of videogame that they realized for the "fans" that supported the franchise until today.
    This title have more potential than capcom and many people can imagine, this game deserve to have an proper remaker or remaster from a different team with a decent budget.

    В римейке трешки как и в двойке хорошая графика, звук, красиво сделанные локации и персонажи, игра проходиться на одном дыхании и в этом наверно главная проблема ты не успеваешь насладиться игрой.
    Я прошел ее два раза, наверно пройду еще но не больше в игре катастрофически не хватает контента, убрали большое количество локаций такие как здание газеты, заправку, церковь, парк и еще несколько по мелочи, убрали дополнительного боса могильного червя.
    Убрали переходную стадию немиза и многое другое.
    Мне кажется как раз из за этих вырезаний и получилась игра очень короткой.
    Перед игрой в ремейк я прошел оригинал 1999 и он на порядок интересней и увлекательней ,а также реиграбельней.
    По итогу что могу сказать игра хорошая но не больше, если в дальнейшем завезут дополнения в виде новых локаций, монстров и костюмов что вырезали то тогда оценка подрастет но сейчас она не дотягивает даже до оригинала.    … Expand

    The puzzles are barely there & too easy to solve. Nemesis isn't scary at all I mean it! you won't ever feel the rush, the Adrenaline and the Nemesis horror like the original.

    Too many places are missing from the original, the only nostalgic thing in this game is the save room music I liked that.

    It's solid game and I would recommend it if it's not part of franchise but I'm not recommending it because it's a remake it has to be like the original with improvements not cutting stuff from original.

    The gameplay with Carlos respects the original game since that part was action and here he respects it and redoubles it making the part with Carlos more interesting.
    The physics of the game are nothing compared to Re2 Remake. He has no commitment to the puzzles, the game is totally linear. Many cinematics.
    Nemesis: I liked the remake of phase 1, well used the graphics but phase 2 no longer respects what we expected, phase 2 is a dog with 4 legs ... nothing to do with the original nemesis.
    The fights are few and they are Scripted, it is not like Mr X of the Re2 Remake that followed you all over the police station without counting the save rooms.

    The game is one more action, it is not survival horror like the 2 remake. They had time to do it and they did it badly in a hurry and reluctantly, all pretext to get the Project Resistance that comes from Bonus with the Resident Evil 3 Remake and the price totally exaggerated. It is not worth at least in Argentina 4,200 Argentine pesos.

    As always Capcom does 2 good 3 bad ... they went back again with the titles of Resident Evil.

    Esto es una reseña 100% Sincera.

    Decepcionado de este juego tan esperado. Se nota que el equipo no fue el mismo que hizo Resident Evil 2 Remake.
    Corto primera vez jugando en estandar 4 horas para darlo vuelta, muriendo nada mas 3 veces.
    No cumple con la expectativa que se esperaba en torno a historia.
    La jugabilidad con Carlos respeta el juego original ya que esa parte era de acción y aca la respeta y la redobla haciendo que la parte con Carlos sea mas interesante.
    Las fisicas del juego no son nada comparadas al Re2 Remake. No tiene empeño en los puzzles, totalmente lineal el juego. Muchas cinematicas.
    Nemesis: Me gusto el remake de la fase 1, bien aprovechado los graficos pero la fase 2 ya no respeta lo que esperabamos, fase 2 es un perro con 4 patas... nada que ver con el nemesis original.
    Las peleas son pocas y son Scripteadas, no es como Mr X del Re2 Remake que te seguia por toda la comisaria sin contar los save room.

    El juego es uno mas de acción, no es survival horror como el 2 remake. Tuvieron tiempo de hacerlo y lo hicieron mal a las apuradas y sin ganas, todo pretexto para sacar el Project Resistance que viene de Bonus con el Resident Evil 3 Remake y el precio totalmente exagerado. No lo vale por lo menos en Argentina 4.200 Pesos Argentinos.

I was hoping they would do right by this game, because this is the same feeling we all had back in 99. But this is worse. They reused a lot of assets from 2 and downgraded on that game, such as the gore system. They had no reason to rush this especially if they had Resistance on deck. They should have pushed Resistance as a free to play release while continuing to develop this title. I really wanted to see them expand upon this original story as they did with the 2nd remake, but they did the opposite and cut a lot of it out and turned back toward the direction of RE 5 and 6, almost as if they completely blocked out all the praise they received the last couple of years (specifically last year). And for some reason the game just shifts tone in the last part of the game and turns into a typical Capcom anime game. It's clear that the B team screwed up and the A team was forced to come in to fix the mess after RE2 wrapped up, I want to know the story of what happened. Its really unfortunate that the canon suffers as well. I wouldn't recommend paying more than $30 for this.… Expand

    -Surprisingly short, even for a RE game.

    -Lack of content(Removed areas like the clock tower, no operation mad jackal, puzzles seem to have been removed or dumbed-down, etc.).

    -Underuse of the Nemesis Tyrant(He only really stalks you like twice in this game the other are just scripted segments).

    Final score : 7/10 above average

    Final thoughts:
    While Resident Evil 3 Remake is still a good game from start to finish it suffers from a bunch of questionable decisions that sour the experience and ultimately keep it from being a great at remake like RE and RE 2 were.

    Still worth a playthrough but wait for a sale.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Esse jogo merecia ter um mundo semi-aberto, pois RE3 tem muitas localidades, lugares estes que foram retirados , feitos de paisagens ou quando existem são apenas um gatilho para uma cena. Vou citar alguns, talvez esqueça de algum.

    Cenários:

    - Bar do Jack(aparece apenas em uma cena)
    - Estacionamento(aparece apenas em uma cena)
    - O escritório(ficou de fora)
    - O Restaurante(ficou de fora)
    - A Butique(ficou de fora)
    - A Ecliptc Express(ficou de fora)
    - O cemitério(ficou de fora)
    - A Dead Factory(ficou de fora)
    - A Clock Tower(Só faz parte do cenário)
    - O Posto Stagla(Só Faz parte do cenário)

    Inimigos que ficaram de fora:

    - Sliding Worm
    - Corvos
    - Grave Digger
    - As Aranhas
    - A segunda transformação do Nêmesis.

    Todos esses pontos deveriam ser exploráveis e fazer parte do backtracking do jogo, mas infelizmente RE3RE não foi tratado como um jogo AAA, ele foi tratado como uma DLC do RE2RE, o próprio RE2RE mesmo sendo melhor que o seu sucessor, sofre do mesmo problema, ambos não tiveram o devido esmero e carinho por parte da Capcom, um falha por ser picotado e mau executado e o outro por campanhas praticamente idênticas. Ambos deveriam ser tratados como um novo jogo AAA numerado, com bastante tempo de produção, no mínimo 3 ou 4 anos para cada um, mas fazer o que? O dano já foi feito.Nota 7. Como REMAKE nota 5 pela nostalgia e olhe lá.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. TLDR: The game is good, but there are changes and a few things missing, so if you're a die hard fan who's going to lose your **** because you don't like change, then your loss.

    The game is by no means perfect, but it was always going be to less impressive than RE2 remake because that was the advent of the new engine and world for the RE franchise that people had been asking for for a long time, so RE3 remake was always going to have a less hype reception.

    My main issues were that I wish it had a few more puzzles as it's a little light on them for sure, as well having atleast one other location that would have been nice for the sake of variety. Also they touch on Jill's PTSD brought on by the events of RE1 but I would have liked perhaps a flashback or something along those lines, at the very least just more instances of the effects it has on her as it's only really factored in once or twice.

    Some aspects I enjoyed were the fleshing out of the characters and story, particularly Jill and Carlos are much better characters, along with the improved combat.

    So let's address the main complaints people have below so you can see how ridiculous the Resident evil community can be with their hypocrisy (SPOILERS obviously):

    Gameplay the same as RE2R:

    I'm not sure what people were expecting here as the original RE3 in 1999 was released in the same fashion and did the exact same thing the Remake has done, the combat is better but the gameplay style of game is very similar yes. This is the first point that should let you know how wholly unreasonable a large part of the Resident evil community can be because they begged and begged for the game to be as much like the original as possible but then complain about the aspects that are the same.

    "Cut content":

    In the remake, there is definitely parts of the game that are changed and removed from the original RE3, however whether or not this is good or bad is up for debate as the original was notorious for being the least good of the old style RE games so changes were definitely on the cards and for good reason.

    The main thing that bothers me about this statement though, is that people love to list off the things that are missing such as the Mercenaries minigame, the multiple endings and the Clocktower/Park locations, however they then don't mention that other parts of the game have been expanded upon and new places added to compensate, which is purely just to be sensationalist and make it seem worse than it is.

    The Mercenaries game was a very short side game used to unlock extra weapons in the original, where as now you get those extra weapons and costumes from doing specific challenges within the game itself. Mercenaries would have been nice but the fact it's missing is not some catastrophic thing, especially since the game mode was pretty bare bones in the original and wasn't amazing until RE4 used it much later.

    The Clocktower is still in the game, however it is not a location you actually spend time going through like in the original, while the Park area is completely removed and I will admit I would have liked to have seen it in the new engine, but it was never that important of an area in the original anyway, implemented mainly to facilitate the fight with the Gravedigger boss which again did nothing really for the game as it pops up very short moments for you to kill it and move on, so it's inclusion while nice, wouldn't have elevated the remake to new heights.

    The Dead factory is NOT gone. Stop lying and saying it is, it's just been changed to look different and be more inline with the remakes art design so the location serves the same function (and provides a better explanation for its existence) as the original while being updated visually for the remake.

    People also like to say the game has no replay-ability, which shows they simply haven't played it, as there are 2 extra difficulties on top of the usual hardcore. These extra difficulties also change up item and some enemy locations, meaning there is definitely replay-ability, not to mention the shop with all the unlockables you can unlock by completing challenges in game.

    Even more ridiculous is the comparison between RE2R and RE3R saying that RE2R had so much more content, except it didn't at launch, it had 4th survivor and 3 guns to unlock, the rest of the stuff came later as DLC, so comparing the two at launch is at the very least, dishonest.

    Nemesis is barely in it:

    This is flat out lie, I honestly don't know what game people are playing and it definitely makes me think people are simply just spouting lines and opinions from other people instead of playing the game.

    There is a myriad of things that people will complain about, go play the game yourself to decide, because it's very clear there is just a hearsay crusade for this game that makes zero sense, because a bunch of people would rather just jump on a band wagon than actually form an opinion themselves.    … Expand

    While last year’s Resident Evil 2 took the story and settings of the original game and expanded them into a finely tuned masterpiece, Resident Evil 3 feels like it took a much different approach. The story, and the path it takes from beginning to end, has seen some substantial changes compared to the original to the point where it’s sometimes difficult to see any semblance of its source material under this new coat of polygons and paint. That having been said, I did enjoy my time with Resident Evil 3 and I think that fans of the series, or fans of its predecessor, will enjoy it. However, one group I feel like it might struggle to impress are the fans of the original Resident Evil 3: Nemesis which is quite unfortunate after how well last year’s Resident Evil 2 was received.

    Not only it doesn’t surpass RE2, it fails to even hit the same mark. In RE2, every act had you explore a rather large environment, search for clues and solve puzzles. In RE3, you just run down a corridor, blasting zombies and dodging scripted Nemesis attacks. [Issue#245, p.46]

    Unlike the remake of Resident Evil 2, this is a simple, straightforward blockbuster, short, colorful, and mindless. As for Resident Evil: Resistance, you will probably quit it after spending half an hour in this boring L4D clone.
