The narrative is almost entirely changed and the Nemesis himself has had his role diminished so much that he’s no longer the threat he once was.Īfter the phenomenal Resident Evil 2 Remake, it’s pretty disheartening to see Resident Evil 3 turn out this way. To be fair, I’ve not played Resident Evil 3 in years but from the minute this version began I found very little to remind me of the original. Where RE2 stuck to the established script and was mostly a one for one remake, Resident Evil 3 goes out of its way to be a very, very different game to its PS1 namesake. After the success of Resident Evil 2 Remake, Capcom is back with a remake of Resident Evil 3.
It brings me no joy to say that Resident Evil 3 is average.
