    Огромное разочарование. Не могу поверить, что ремейки ре2 и ре3 вышли с одного станка. Это даже DLC то трудно назвать, больше напоминает фанфик про беготню от Немезиса...

    A crack in the history of this classic game... Game is ridiculously short (4 or 5h), without emotion, without fear and without anything. Jill deserved so much more! Nemesis at DEMO was relentless, but in the final version it sucked.
    Everything in this game got bad and made easy and I hope that Kawata will be kicked out of Capcom for yet another failed RE!

    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.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Никогда не писал отзывов на метакритике. Но для этого высера сделаю исключение. Разработчики плюнули мне в лицо, я плюну в ответ.
    Игру я так и не прошёл. Моя голова уже начала болеть от того количества фейспалмов, которые я себе отбивал время от времени из-за тупости и кривизны происходящего на экране. Честно говорю, что я читал плохие обзоры на игру ещё до её выхода и уже тогда смекнул, что наверное не стоит заморачиваться на мнении масс и дать игре шанс, потому что от сего ремейка уж точно будет чему улыбнуться давнему хардкорному фанату RE. Я никогда в жизни так не ошибался...
    Начнём с редизайна персонажей.Джилл. Нет, сама по себе она прекрасна. Её внешность и голос близки к идеалу того, чего я ожидал.НО. При предзаказе нас всех жёстко на е бали, выдав всем "классический костюм" Джилл с юбкой и топом. Радости не было предела, потому что её новая одежда реально ударила по канону. Юбкой и топом. Или нет? Ну конечно нет. Юбка была заменена неким подобием шорт. ШОРТЫ,КАРЛ. В чём была проблема разрабов сделать классическую юбку Джилл? Я до сих пор не вкуриваю прикола. То ли это фемки реально начали давить на "уязвимость", то ли разрабы поехали крышей на "реализме",типа:"ну неудобно же бегать в зомби апокалипсис в юбке".Кек, а поднимать 150кг лазерную пушку при весе тела в 55-60кг - удобно?Что за абсурд?.(Да и вообще о каком нахрен реализме может идти речь в игре по RE?ЭТО ЖЕ ИГРА ПРО ЗОМБИ,ВАШУ МАТЬ).
    Поехали дальше. Немесис.. Ну просто шикарный. Неутомимый. Зловещий. Устрашающий. (Это всё сарказм,он просто жалок по сравнению со старичком Немесис из оригинала). Ничего не буду про него говорить, о нём уже давно всё сказано.
    Следующий пункт, от которого у меня бомбит - разрабы хотели раскрыть второстепенных персонажей больше. Когда я это узнал, я визжал от радости,надеясь на более глубокую историю Михаила, или похождения гниды Николая. Но уж никак я не ожидал то,что под второстепенными персонажами они имели в виду никому не упёршегося н игера, который в оригинале имел роль куска мяса,который должен был себя подорвать гранатой. Так вот, ему выделили в игре больше хронометража,чем тому же Михаилу, или же Николаю.
    О самом сюжете в целом. Вырезано более 70% оригинальной игры. Что же вырезано?
    Вырезана Часовня.Вырезан гигантский червь.Вырезан парк города.
    Вырезано кладбище.
    Вырезаны пауки.
    Вырезаны некоторые враги(типа мелких миног-червей).
    Вырезан момент,где Джилл посещает полицейский участок(где смысл этого - не понятно)
    Немесис больше не убивает Брэда.(Т.е смысл "убийцы" отряда S.T.A.R.S просто теряется)
    Так слить игру надо уметь. Я зол и расстроен.

    Cut content, very short game, not challenging, HOLLOW story, stupid puzzle, cliche story, lousy inventory, not challenging (basically just aim and shoot reload then aim and shoot again that's it, no need worry about bullet and inventory management), POORLY DESIGNED, Nemesis not threatening at all, Nemesis most of time is scripted, RUSHY content, what a shame, this game more like DLC. Price tag 100% not worth it. My point of this kind of game? >10 USD.
    My score to this game is 4/10.
    Sorry Capcom. Probably being too full of yourself for the successful 2018/2019? I does not blame the outsource developer that delivered this POORLY DESIGNED stuff but it is CAPCOM that willing to accept this joke and sell it to their fans.

This only happens at a single point in the game. And it is not the same sensation because he jumps like the Hulk and just appears in front of Jill. It is not a shark that slowly approaches its food. They should have taken advantage of that element that was already present in 2 Remake.
    Anyway, Nemesis is just an excuse for action scenes. You just need to press forward and sometimes use the dodge than you will never die. He's MUCH inferior to Mr. X. And, unlike Mr. X, Nemesis IS the heart of Resident Evil 3.
    It does not stop there. In addition to taking the heart of the Resident Evil 3 Original, they also cut landscapes, scenery and especially all the puzzles in the original game.
    For all this, it is a game that is only worth buying when you have a discount and a nice discount. Despite being fun and good, it is very short and disappointing.

    The game feels like RE5-6 in terms of mechanics and gameplay and that's exactly everything that is wrong with this remake, if we can call it that.
    Nemesis is a joke, it's like a MR.X with an awful redesign. He's heavily scripted and his behaviour doesn't make any sense. Not to mention that some of his moves are a joke.
    The gore has been reduced for no reason, the OST is just terrible and like in RE2 Remake, they didn't tried their best at all. But at least in RE2 we had the option to switch to the original OST while in RE3 that option doesn't exist and you're forced to play with the awful remake version of the songs.
    And don't even get me started on the final battle which is pure unfiltered garbage straight out of an anime or the typical Platinum games that i hate.

    Hard to believe how they butchered this remake after the masterpiece that they've done with Reside nt Evil 2 remake.
    Refund made, i'm not even bothering with Capcom and future Resident Evil titles anymore, this is just pathetic.

    This is what happens when you leave the remake in charge of an incompetent team that didn't even play the original game.

    Lack of intro cinematic like in the original is Capcom's mistake, though - it was really cool and they had to recreate it!

    As a fan of the series, I loved RE2 Remake since I could forgive its flaws: the lack of a proper B routes for Claire and Leon, the missing water treatment scenario, no spiders and crows, the totally different Umbrella laboratory and the cut content of Extreme Battle mode. Like I said, they were flaws, but for me they weren't a very big deal anyway and the game was great and most faithful as possible. I said I was hoping for a even more faithful approach in next remakes and here we are. I'm sorry, Capcom, but this time it's a big no from me. I'm so sad to write a negative review, but it's necessary due to this game. This time the situation is really messed up. The game it's kinda fun at the start, but starts to get tedious with time and as a remake it fails terribly. They did it way worse than RE2 Remake in therms of faithfullness. I mean, additions are always welcome, but removal of things? Removal of scenarios? Enemies? And that made the game even shorter. After years dreaming and waiting for a RE3 Remake, we get... this mess. That's why I'm writing a negative review.

    Is Capcom too lazy? Rushed? Because I feel they were. This is not how you remake a iconic game like Resident Evil 3. Learn how to do it with Resident Evil 1 Remake that featured EVERYTHING THE ORIGINAL HAD with additions! (Also, the RE1 Remake new version is so, so way better that is the version that is now actually considered canon). Another great example is Final Fantasy VII that's standing faithful to the original as most as possible. Like I said, I waited YEARS for this remake and it's a deception. What a nightmare. Oh well... This is enough. Stop making these "remakes". If the intention is to remove various elements the original had and change it too much, just leave them alone. Don't think about touching Code Veronica or any other. Don't waste your and our times unless you decide to make a faithful remake just like how brilliant RE1R was. If not, try to make new games like Revelations 3, Resident Evil 8 or like I suggested, a new Outbreak.

    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.
