    Its a half-baked retelling of the original game. Whole sections are cut and nothing much added to replace them. References to things from the og are not a good remake. No dynamic choices, Puzzles are either not there or so easy it hands you the answer on a silver platter. The demo lied about what we were getting.

    This is not a remake this is a real fake made in a hurry to collect money from fans of the series!!! I trusted Capcom, and they so cruelly deceived me. I have lost confidence in Capcom and will no longer make pre-orders!!! Capcom-burn you in hell!!!

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. To start, I'm a long-time Resident Evil fan. Started playing when the first came out back in 1996. I've played all the mainline series, the remakes, and many of the off-shoot titles. I'm not new to the RE scene.

    The original Resident Evil 3 was probably one of the best in the series. The Nemesis, branching paths, and the ability to dodge were all a pretty big jump from the previous game.

    But I just could NOT get into this game. The graphics are good, even though today we still get blurred writing on most environmental objects. The Nemesis shows up way too early; the pacing from the original where the Nemesis shows a bit into the game made for a much better flow.

    There were too many changes to the characters. I still like Jill Valentine's previous face model a bit more. Brad's character is completely different; you see him in 2 scenes (alive) in the original, but this one you only get one, and he's a more noble and selfless than in the original. It just doesn't jive with his character.

    Dodging doesn't seem to work all that great, but maybe I didn't play it enough.

    I do know that several areas were cut, as well as few puzzles.

    It just feels shallow and hallow. It feels like this could've been something way better, but the developers settled for "good enough".

    If you never played the original, you might like this. It's not a terrible game. But as someone that played the original, I have to compare it. And if you put both games in front of me, I would choose the original.    … Expand

    Do not buy this game. I made the mistake trusting Capcom to deliver after the RE2Remake but I regret it deeply. This one will go down in history as one of the biggest scams and disappointments Capcom ever pulled, while asking for the full price.

On top of that, the changes to Jill.. but that's another topic. On top of this, Jill Valentine in the RE3 remake is so unlikable it's unreal. A literal manface with your typical strong wahman nonsense, no one wants this. Capcom needs to listen less to American SJWs and more to their own ideas to avoid sabotaging their own games like this.    … Expand

    Verdict; Its just sad, RE3R has tainted the promise of possible future RE remakes for HC fans. I hope, wish and pray that Cap learns something from this failure instead of denying and showing their heads in sand.

    Unplayable garbage, not even close to the original. Recycled crap from re2make (which was already awful). Action centered piece of **** crap!! WE WANT SURVIVAL HORROR CAPCOM!

    - No puzzles (I cannot believe they removed puzzles)
    - No clock tower (this is probably the worst that Capcom did to this game)
    - Pathetic and ugly characters (*facepalm*), that's not Jill, that's not Carlos and that's not Nicolai
    - An absolute scam for $60 ($10 would be already too much for this ugly dlc)
    - Insulting the re3 original legacy. I stick with the classics
    - Pathetic and cliche scenes, filled with cheese dialogue and unnecessary swearing (thankfully the japanese voices are still there)
    - No survival horror elements or gameplay
    - Way too much combat, that it's actually poorly designed, an absolute mess
    - This game has some cutscenes that fully disrespects both the original game and the owners.
    - Jill looks like an ugly unwanted feminist lesbian, and acts like a misandric **** too much sjw pandering in this crap game
    My advice: If you were dumb enough to buy this crap go ask for a refund ASAP. Resident Evil died after 7.    … Expand

    After the superb RE7 and RE2 Remake this just feels like a lazy cash grab made by the B team by throwing together a bunch of recycled stuff from RE2 while the main team were busy working on RE8.

Robaron las identidades de los personajes de un juego que muchos tratan de spin off, que introdujo al enemigo más icónico de la saga de Resident Evil y que formó parte de la trilogía inició a varios de nosotros al mundo del survival horror. Y es una lástima porque se ve genial, pero eso no basta ni es suficiente para sustituir la esencia que por alguna razón removieron de esta entrega.

    Me arrepiento de haberlo comprado. Lo más agravante es que introdujeron "PROJECT RESISTANCE" como un juego "gratis", dándole mucha más customización que al propio RE3R, y que además tiene microtransacciones...

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Ремейк абсолютно не страшный. Сплошной экшн. Ни капли ужаса, сопереживания Джилл. Особо разочаровало начало игры, полное голливудских клише; слишком быстро ликвидировали Немезиса в своём каноничном обличии; полностью изменена атмосфера миссии когда необходимо достать вакцину Джилл (в оригинале было действительно страшно заходить в комнаты больницы). Вообщем, разработчики старались угодить всем. Возможно, им это удалось. Для меня нет. Признаю, что ремейк Resident Evil 2 на фоне обозреваемой игры выдался шикарным! Mr. X во много раз страшнее Немезиса. 2/10. (К тому же игра слишком короткая)… Expand

    Very disappointing to see the state of RE3 Remake after the success of 2. A stripped down modern take on an already short original, Capcom, in their infinite wisdom, have decided it made more sense to tack on a separate multiplayer only standalone title that nobody asked for instead of focusing on making RE3 the best it can be using the modern tools available.

    CAPCOM simply cannot help themselves. They always come back to action. RE3 is another try to be a blockbuster movie, instead of our usual survival horror game. It's a cheap try to be another RE6, except it still costs $60. Why couldn't they simply double down on what they did on RE2R or RE7? Oh god, I guess we'll never know.

    This isn't a 60€ triple A game, it's a lazy, uninspired remake with reused assets everywhere, almost no replayability (it took me 70 hours to get bored of re2r, after just 10 hours i'm done with this one). The cinematic and the music are very good but that's all, it's a lazy cash grab that tastes like a budget RE 6, just shameful.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Another attempt to make a goofy blockbuster with explosions and fuss.
    I don't understand why Capcom manically trying to make Resident Evil into blockbuster with explosions.
    It's funny, but the 1999 game has more Raccoon City than in a super-modern rethinking.
    I expected that they would correct the flaws of the original game and expand it. Make it shine.
    But .. there is nothing to explore, to seek solutions to problems. You always know where to go, and if you forgot, Carlos will tell you, or you in the corridor.
    In this game you do not need to think and remember.
    They сut costumes. There is a page with costumes, but no costumes. You can unlock 1 costume for Jill! 1! God forbid they will sell costumes separately in the DLC.
    The most important thing of the game is Nemesis. And it’s a great part to meet with him - it's cutscenes where you need to press “forward” .. very fun and intense.
    And then the cult monster, burning like a torch, idioticly falls into the river and becomes a dog ...
    Thanks for the remake of Resident Evil 2. Now it feels like that all things Resident Evil 2 Remake doing right, it was made by accident.
    But after this game, which for some reason bears the name Resident Evil 3, my enthusiasm of waiting another Resident Evil game, has gone.
    I regret that I spent the money.    … 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.
