    It's even shorter than RE2 remake and it's lacking a lot of additional content after finishing game. Although main protagonist Jill is amazing and graphically game is amazing! It's really worth a shot especially on some fine sale.

    Das Survival Horror Remake von Capcom macht in den Bereichen Gameplay und Design alles richtig. Nur leider ist die Haupthandlung etwas kurz und es mangelt an Szenen, die in Erinnerung bleiben. So bleibt das Spiel unter seinen Möglichkeiten (7/10).

They have cut down the puzzles (there are hardly any), the world is built in pretty linear pathways and there are many cut-scenes, so the plot is forced in a certain direction. While in RE2 you had a genuine feeling of being free to explore a giant mansion, which appeared truly scary and also more realistic, in RE3 your are mostly forced into certain paths. But not only that, even the enemies aren't that well made in the RE3 remake, they are not as detailed in their behaviour and thus they seem less frightening. While Mr. X appeared truly frightening to me, the Nemesis is not even scary anymore because he appears all the time and you can easily dodge him with the new dodge-move.

    In sum, they wasted the potential of a great game.

    If you love RE, you should nevertheless give this game a try, but if you already played RE2, you will be disappointed in the lack of quality they have put into this game.    … Expand

    4 points onl for the graphics , I enjoyed the game in the start but , it gets boring after playing for 1 hour . It's repetitive and same.
    Go to A , do this , run away from zombies because you'll have no ammo left - This is the gameplay !

    'Resident Evil 3' is boring, scripted, nearly brain dead, and of course unfinished. First things first, the new Jill is too average looking and looks like a child. The nasty butch hairstyle makes her look worse. This new Jill is as some have already mentioned it is a re-skin of the new Lara Croft. Her endless profanity towards Nemesis really breaks immersion. How am I supposed to be scared'Resident Evil 3' is boring, scripted, nearly brain dead, and of course unfinished. First things first, the new Jill is too average looking and looks like a child. The nasty butch hairstyle makes her look worse. This new Jill is as some have already mentioned it is a re-skin of the new Lara Croft. Her endless profanity towards Nemesis really breaks immersion. How am I supposed to be scared of the hulking beast if Jill clearly isn't? She and Carlos are always referring to him as "that fu**er" and other combinations. What "realism" we get by having our heroes speaking like uneducated thugs! If they ever remake this remake again, it would not be surprising if Nemesis himself calls Jill a "bit**".

    Nemesis chases you a few times and most of the encounters are scripted. He is the only boss in the game and you get to fight him three times with two of those fights being very similar. For a character that is supposed to be an unstoppable stalker/predator; It's fairly easy to keep your distance from him. Because in this game, he is just pretending to chase you, it's all scripted easy bullcrap. The more "real" games become the more idiotic and soul-less they are getting. People think immersion is having a scripted movie/game with characters who are flawed and speak like criminals. Experience this modern Jill and then go back and compare her to the class act she is in REHD and RE5. She was beautiful, strong, and didn't need to act tough. She also never once cursed or used profane language, yet the gamers have their rated M rating.

    Now that I got the characters out of the way. It's time to talk about the gameplay and here is where the game suffers more. The game is mostly point and shoot, hardly any tactics are required. The Hunters are the only enemy in the game that pose a threat, especially if you manage to aggro more than one of them. There is a part of the game that is really puzzling as to why it's even part of it. The section of the game where you have to power 4 switches in a maze and you are being attacked by what seems like endless spiders. They introduce a strange mechanic in the game at that point that you would think will carry on, but no, it is never seen again after that. On a totally hentai tentacle scene, Jill gets abused by a parasite creature and suddenly you have contracted parasites. They slowly drain your health away and make your HUD a pain to look at. There are of course no blue herbs, so how do you get rid of the parasites? Green herb of course.... And that's that, after you complete that tedious mini maze and it really is tedious, that mechanic is gone from the game. There are way too many save stations, auto-saves and ammo too. Some people complained that in RE7 there was not enough ammo. I felt like RE7 had too much of it, but here I just don't think anyone should have an ammo problem.

    I got this game on a sale for $17 and I feel like I was $3 away from being ripped off. The game has almost zero replay value. There is no mercenaries mode, no new game+ or unlockable modes. I don't really see why anyone would bother with a second play through. I played this after Resident Evil Village waiting for it to go on a sale. I can say I am finally done with this franchise. I don't think I will participate in the RE4 remake. Resident Evil 3 still manages to be a better game than the abomination that is Resident Evil Village.    … Expand

    Como o produtor já disse que Resident Evil 3 é "um produto finalizado", tirando qualquer esperança de DLC de história, não tem como recomendar essa compra. Suas vendas ocorreram em meio a pandemia, o que me leva a pensar que não houve um acabamento bem feito.

O jogo dá sensação de medo    Como o produtor já disse que Resident Evil 3 é "um produto finalizado", tirando qualquer esperança de DLC de história, não tem como recomendar essa compra. Suas vendas ocorreram em meio a pandemia, o que me leva a pensar que não houve um acabamento bem feito.

    No remake do Resident Evil 2, a Capcom acertou em cheio em uma jogabilidade fluida e fiel ao original. O jogo dá sensação de medo e incerteza do que vai vir, história levemente alterada, com algumas incompatibilidades mas muito boa ainda. O Resident Evil 3 foi uma tentativa de ir além, de aumentar a ação, e assim como Resident Evil 6, ficou ruim e desnecessário. A história foi completamente alterada e ficou muito pior do que o original. O jogo é curto, o que não é um problema, mas ele é extremamente linear. O jogo acelera tanto a história e é cansativo, porque você está na maioria do tempo correndo pra frente. Todos os cenários são breves, não dá pra sentir o ambiente, é como se tudo fosse um corredor, um cenário de mudança para a próxima cutscene. Enquanto o 2 refez seus cenários com novos gráficos e designs, este aqui criou coisas novas. São muito bonitas mas são tão passageiras que não dá tempo de observar. O jogo mudou sua história para reutilizar muitos recursos criados no 2 e fica uma cópia tão ruim que fica chato de jogar. Conseguiram transformar o Nemesis, que era a mais perigosa arma biológica já criada da série, em um experimento falho que não cumpriu nenhum de seus objetivos, além de ter uma mutação genética bizarra e comportamento pior ainda. Os personagens estão incríveis, tanto a modelagem quanto na personalidade e dublagem, a Jill e o Carlos são os maiores pontos positivos deste jogo. Os gráficos e efeitos sonoros também são excelentes, embora tenha presenciado alguns problemas de renderização e travamento em várias ocasiões.
    O jogo é raso, completamente raso, age como uma DLC para o 2. Me senti jogando o Separate Ways do Resident Evil 4, pois é basicamente uma versão inferior ao Resident Evil 2.
    Falha como Remake, falha como jogo individual (pelo menos neste preço e com este nome) e falha com um enredo ruim. Para quem já jogou o original, este jogo é um insulto. Todo momento você estará se perguntando "Mas já?", até chegar na parte final que você estará afirmando "Finalmente". Este jogo tem partes muito boas, mas elas são tão poucas que chega a ser frustrante tamanho desperdício de potencial. As dificuldades são pessimamente balanceadas, o esquema de esquiva tem um design falho, nenhum jogo de esquiva te permite esquivar infinitas vezes em sequência, o que deixa esse jogo mais fácil do que ele já é, independente da dificuldade. Não digo que é algo ruim, mas é como se o jogo fosse balanceado pelas dificuldades em "não sabe esquivar" e "sabe esquivar". Dificuldade adaptativa quase inexistente. Tem jogos que mudam progressivamente de cenários mais fáceis para mais difíceis. A sensação do RE3 é que você começa em cenários fáceis e progride para cenários ainda mais fáceis.
    É interessante comparar o início desse jogo com o início de The Last of Us, por exemplo. É estranho, mas no The Last of Us (2013) você demora bastante tempo até o jogo começar de fato. Pelo menos os primeiros 30-40 minutos de jogo são tutoriais, e o jogo é completamente linear, mas a imersão e a velocidade são adequadas. No caso do RE3, os primeiros 20 minutos são muito similares na questão de gameplay, só que não tem nada relevante acontecendo, nada impactante, são só uma sequência de clichês até o real gameplay. Você se sente em uma esteira completamente inútil e de nenhum valor a agregar na história nem na personagem. Não é algo memorável (bom, na verdade é, é bem memorável como que a introdução ficou mal feita).
    Isso sem contar a imensa redução no "gore", comparado com o RE2. O curioso é que, mesmo com essa redução de violência gráfica, a Jill é frequentemente hipersexualizada durante o jogo: em ângulos de câmera, ataques de criaturas específicas e lutas contra o Nemesis. Ah, produções japonesas...
    Se quiser jogar pela história, melhor comprar o original de 1999, a venda na PSN do PS3. Se quiser ver como que aquele jogo de 1999 está nos gráficos atuais, jogue a demo gratuita. Não compre e jogue imaginando como o jogo seria bom, porque a realidade é bem diferente.
    Único estímulo para rejogar são as conquistas dentro e fora do jogo. Enquanto Resident Evil 2 foi o jogo do ano de muitos ano passado, este aqui é a Decepção do Ano de muitos.
    Jogo vazio, apressado, frustrante e decepcionante.    … Expand

    I have been playing ALL RE evil games for the last several months. And this game is a disappointment. Why?

    Pros.: - New graphics. - Flexible and comfortable controls. - Old loved characters, their mimics, animation. - System of bonuses, go there, remember this, remember that. Go back here with a lockpick and find the pouch. - References to other games, like RE7 (toys). Cons.    I have been playing ALL RE evil games for the last several months. And this game is a disappointment. Why?

    Pros.:
    - New graphics.
    - Flexible and comfortable controls.
    - Old loved characters, their mimics, animation.
    - System of bonuses, go there, remember this, remember that. Go back here with a lockpick and find the pouch.
    - References to other games, like RE7 (toys).

    Cons. (many):
    - Redesign of Jill. I don't understand - WHY is her previous design and face was bad? I could understand the redesign of Clair, Leon, and Ada, but they were close to the original. At least make a modern model with the older Jill design as a DLC or free unlockable DLC.
    - The levels seem to cut. You literally play the game and feel it was cut here and there. I have never played the original RE3, so I'm not obscured by the predecessor. But I remember the complexity of RE4, the complexity of RE7, the action-like simplicity of RE5 and RE6. This game has a bit of RE2 (that is amazing in its complexity and balance between puzzles and action) but mostly resembles RE5 and RE6. The cut scenes and their uselessness resemble me another RE failure - RE Revelations 2.
    - Battles with Nemesis are garbage. He's either a supervillain killing you in two blows or he is a dumbass waiting for you until you run away. When he transformed into a bigger spider-lurker-like monster it was a facepalm. I remember in RE2R you may hear the Tyrant walking and feel terrified, running away and wasting the last of your grenade launcher rounds. Here - nope. No suspense. Just scripted scenes.
    - The same trick over and over again - the enemy lying behind and silently standing up. You go back from the enemies in front of you, shoot, and then the one behind bites you. Stupid way of making the game more difficult.
    - Wasted locations with multiple spaces - police station, hospital. Level design is poor. The game had potential but it was wasted.
    - The game should have repeated the way RE2R did - playing Carlos or Jill, seeing the events from different perspectives. But the game fails to be a suspense, it fails to be a battle with a supervillain, it fails to be a dual narrative.

    So, I don't recommend to buy it until it's VERY cheap alongside with its DLCs.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. (04.04.2020) Сразу скажу, от ремейка RE3 ожидал большего, т.к ремейк RE2 был шедевром, то от 3-го я ожидал такого же, но... Игра хорошая, но у неё есть огромное количество минусов: плот армор Джилл, ОЧЕНЬ короткая, не ощущается Немезис как враг(нету того напряжения, как было в ремейке RE2 от mrX), суперсильная Джилл которая может поднять оружие в 55-60 кг и при этом еще не улететь от отдачи (видно даже последствия от выстрела оружия(трещины в
    бетоне и т.д), но Джилл похуй ༼◥▶ل͜◀◤༽). Так-же, как я заметил, ОЧЕНЬ много боеприпасов и всякого лута (возможно это только на режимах "стандарт" и "упрощенный", т.к я смотрел прохождение на этом режиме сложности(хотя это можно списать на большое количество экшона)) и очень мало загадок и всяких головоломок по сравнению с ремейком RE2. У игры абсолютно такой же движок как у ремейка RE2 (что хорошо). Очень понравились новые гг (в особенности Джилл( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)). Очень мало было дано времени Карлосу по сравнению с Джилл (Возможно так было в оригинале, я хз) Очень жалко что быстро слиты были нераскрытые персонажи (Возможно так было в оригинале, я просто хз). Короче, игра мне понравилось, но по сравнению с RE2, она сделана на скорую руку чтобы сгрести бабла (Если так подумать, то ремейк RE2 делался как минимум лет 5, то RE3 сделали за год и я думаю вышло отлично. Я не хейтер, я полюбил очень сильно вселенную RE после ремейка RE2. Просто у меня были больши надежды, что ремейк RE3 будет на такой же вышке как ремейк RE2).

    P.S: Джилл > Клэр ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

    I think the game is much better than the 2nd game, if it is to stay in a closed area all the time, it was a game where the sections are constantly changing, sometimes we come back, but we do not return to the beginning as much as in the second game, and the game does not make you feel empty at all. Finally, this game is much better than resident evil 2.

    This is a great sequel to the RE2, no less. Less horror, more action, I believe most people crying about it being short played on a standard or easy mode, because on hardcore it's just right. Not a RE2 with 2 walkthroughs, but the original re3 never was like it.
    Overall, great experience, just like with the previous remake.

    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.
