So last night at around 10pm (EST) i made a post about how RE5 was kind of destroying the original resident evil image. The conversation had its ups and downs, but i was convinced otherwise when a few people told me it was remastering it and bringing it to a wider audience.
But it should have ended there right?
Wrong.
Apparently, people decided to take the debate to completely different topics. People started talking about how the classics sucked and the new games kick ass and all that. I didn't go to bed until 5am, because i was trying to let it end there. It's still going on now. I made my last post a few minuets, trying to wrap it all up as best as i could. But if you weren't part of the debate... Here's How it Went
I Stated My Opinion that RE5 has gone a little too far with changing all of the classic characteristics of the original Resident Evil. People said "It's not ruining it RE5 is the best blah blah blah" and i was later convinced by someone that its not really "ruining" it its just "remastering it and bringing it a wider audience" My question was answered so i made a little post saying that my question was answered.
But the debate continued into fighting about the classics and the newer versions. Apparently, some people, including me, liked the riddles and puzzles of the previous versions of resident evil, because it wasn't all about zombie horde action like some of the other games that were out at that time. But then there were other people who hated the riddles and only wanted to kill the **** out of something. Some liked slow zombies from the classics, violent zombies from the newer ones, Eerie music from the classics, loud moaning groaning from the new ones. Everyone was just "WHOA WHOA WHOA STEP BACK" about the whole debate.
If you've read the debate or were part of it.. I'll let you know now... RE5 did not ruin anthing, it's continuing the story of resident evil and adding new things to keep the public wanting more. These days a lot of the public would be more entertained with action rather than riddles. I understand completely and, me being a resident evil fan, i should except the new change and expect even more twists in the full RE5 and there will surely be more to come in future RE's.
