    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 just feel very disappointed, I grew up with this game. One of my favorites of all time.

    I didn't care about the price, but I understand the complain, it just too way short They cut like 40% of the original and add like 15% extra who nobody askedfor it.
    Just disappointed, sad really sad

    We all play this game for 2 things: NEMESIS and Raccoon City.

    I expected MUCH more from the NEMESIS: 1) He is mostly scripted and there is no "It is somewhere there in the city looking for me" feeling. 2) Spider man Nemesis looks so ridiculous... I expected MUCH more from the Raccoon City: 1) They just turned the first half of the original game into an intro run with cutscenes and    We all play this game for 2 things: NEMESIS and Raccoon City.

    I expected MUCH more from the Raccoon City:
    1) They just turned the first half of the original game into an intro run with cutscenes and strange gameplay mechanics. A lot of screenshots are from this locations, which are not fully playable. You just press W and watch the cutscenes.
    2) All the good parts of the city were explored in the Demo. If I knew that before I would not play the god damn demo. There is basically only Power Station city location that is not included in the Demo.
    3) The rest of the City is so linear and its again more about cutscenes and boss fights, not the actual gameplay with exploration. You just press W and fight with bosses. And that's it.

    RE3 always was my favorite, I was waiting for its remake from the very moment I turned on the RE2R, and I, as a true fan, am very sorry that you ruined this game and we probably will never see it again.

    P.S. Original RE3 is better than this. RE2R is better than this. Capcom, most of the money you earned on this game you received due to the successful RE2R.
    P.P.S. The remake sucks. If somebody says to me "Its not a remake! Its a re-imagination!" then that re-imagination sucks.    … Expand

    Oh, CAPCOM. What the hell did you guys do? :(

    I've been waiting for this game for so long. When the RE2 remake came out, I was so excited about the third part bc I thought it would be at least on the same level as its predecessor or even better. But what do we have here? Let's talk NEMESIS, yeah? The monstrosity so badass he was a freaking TITLE of the original game. Well, forget    Oh, CAPCOM. What the hell did you guys do? :(

    But what do we have here?

    Let's talk NEMESIS, yeah? The monstrosity so badass he was a freaking TITLE of the original game. Well, forget it.
    This is nothing but a parody for a real Nemesis. This one here is a Spiderman nonetheless. I mean, have you seen those jumping moves when he flies straight into the sky? Wow... just wow. I mean, he probably weighs a ton, how the hell does he do that?
    And he won't even bother you much or make your head boil like the original Nemesis did, no. You can stun him easily (which was pure nonsense in the original game) and get back to your quests. This fella will even politely WAIT for you to come out of the store, and I'm not kidding. He'll be creeping outside the window, and he won't try and force the doors open, or leave to look for another way to get to you and surprise attack you later, no. He'll wait like a gentlemutant he is.
    Oh, and he doesn't talk, he mumbles, you can't even hear him most of the time. Is it because of the nose he now has? I wonder...
    He's not scary. He's laughable.

    Carlos is what, a One-Punch Man? The hell is that stun move, guys, seriously? And why on Earth does HE goes to the police station and not Jill? This doesn't make any sense. If you wanted to extend his role so badly, maybe you should've put him in those sewers, huh?

    The parasites... what kind of hentai crap was this? Jesus... I mean, can you make it EVEN MORE obvious?
    And we don't even have to look for some special cure. An ordinary green grass will do. Awesome. Oh yeah, and you will encounter this mechanic only once. Why is it even here in the first place?

    And I'm not even gonna start on those cut puzzles, missing bosses and locations. There's A LOT of that.

    I sincerely hope for a massive patch or a DLC that can fix this.    … Expand

DONT BUY IT, w8 for 50-70% discount, or take it from your torrent friend!

    +:
    Re engine (but worse than in RE2RE). Fire is good.
    Good begining and big gun in the end
    Good Clishes cinematics
    Few good scripted moments
    Still Good Sound ambience (but i think not so good as in re2re)

    -:
    2.5 hrs of gayplay(with opening/closing item boxes, wha???)
    VERY Liniar even for a shooter(just turn off your brain, go forward and be happy) in a 2.5hrs gp.
    VERY lack of content. VERY lack of content.VERY lack of content
    No Puzzles
    VERY scripted. Zombies are much worse than in RE2RE and bad physics. They can even dissapear, they are often move back on a scripted position when you are crossing an invisible scripted place. They are often don't want to persue you(bad mood i guess, or/and coronavirus).
    Nemesis is NOTHING to compare to MR.X. SOO scripted and so lifless.
    Boss fights (Nemesis) VERY boring, it's like hitting scripted DUMMIES. Nothing to compare with RE2RE or old/new other games...(Bosses in WoW in LFR are much funnier in comparing).
    NO atmosphere as shooter, no atmosphere as horror. Dunno in what i play.
    Carlos is VERY boring(wetgirly-trannysufferer)
    Jill - tranny
    Poor Ending

    P,s.Sadly but It's all true. IN GENERAL VERY BIG ISSUE IN 2.5 hrs of gameplay for 60$ price in 2020 for liniar shooter - it's a robbery. DON"T BUY IT! SAFE YOUR MONEY!

    Wanted to put 3 stars (because of disappointment), but 4 only for RE Engine and good clishes cinematics, few good moments and good sound... But the game itself is very average, and this is not a game, it's just an average DLC for 2.5 hrs to RE2RE under the mask of old RE3:Nemesis for 60$ with worse mechanics and very scripted world. Awerage product as shooter, as horror as well. No relation to canonic Resident evil world except names of characters(took out too much, added too low). Capcom you don;t even broke one of your canonic game, but even stole money from people for an 2.5hrs game. Shame. If you don't make an additional free DLC to this DLC game, i will never buy your product again.    … 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.

    1. A short game, the plot is cropped, the most important claim to the speed of the narrative.
    2. The whole essence of Nemesis was shown in the demo, in the full game, all the other meetings with him do not cause delight, it's just scripts and chases.
    3. A Lot of action, hardcore has ceased to be hardcore.
    4. RE3 is a good DLC, but as a whole game it's a shame for CAPCOM

    i would call this a soulless remake but it’s not even that, it’s something that just happens to share the same title as 1999’s Resident Evil 3. this game is just profanity-laden edgy action sequences with almost no respect given to the source material and its so short it could have easily just been DLC for the RE2 Remake (which was also soulless, but at least it was actually a remake)

Lots of small slaps in the face all over the place in addition (Enemies cut, bosses cut, areas cut, The "Reimagined" classic outfit for pre orders). Basically the art and developers were on point, the the writers, directors and producers should be kept far FAR away from any future remakes. 3 out of 10, and thats after adding 2 points for nostalgia.

    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

    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.

    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.
