There are far fewer puzzles, weapons and upgrades this time around as well. It doesn’t end with the story that comes up short, it’s also, surprisingly, the depth of the game as well.
These items do take up inventory space though, so choose wisely. However, once you complete the story, the game does offer some incentives to play it again by unlocking “power up” items you can purchase with in game currency to go for those higher ranking playthroughs. It’s entirely possible for the game to be beaten on a first run in under six hours (it took me eight because I am obsessive about running back to store things I might need later which means a lot of backtracking). It does make for a tighter, more focused experience, but it also means the game is absurdly short. Just a linear straight shot to the climax. While the basic story is the same, the clocktower section is excised making the experience much more truncated. He believes he’s doing the right thing and doesn’t fully grasp exactly what his employers have done…at first. Carlos is much improved this time around. She feels confident but never cocky and she’s extremely likable. Starting two days prior to the events of Resident Evil 2, and ending shortly after, Jill Valentine finds herself being pursued by a seemingly unstoppable monster (she later finds to be called “Nemesis,” natch) while assisting UCB member Carlos and his team escape the city that is now overrun by zombies and other manner of things that want to kill you. The story follows much of the same beats as the original with a few key differences mostly in the second half of the game. In others, they missed an opportunity and released a game that feels like an expansion to Resident Evil 2, instead of a proper full-fledged game. When I found out they were giving Resident Evil 3 the same treatment a year later, I was hoping for the same type of improvements. Curious? Read on for our full Resident Evil 3 Remake review. Capcom managed to do the impossible (to me) when they remade Resident Evil 2 (and it did splendidly) by making a game that largely improved upon the experience of the original while keeping most of what made me love it in the first place. As a result, Nemesis felt like a much shorter, less rewarding experience. As such, Resident Evil 3: Nemesis felt like a step backwards with a far more linear campaign, eschewing the “Zapping System” from Resident Evil 2 which allowed you to play the game four different times and have four relatively unique playthroughs, depending on which character you started with. As a fan of the Resident Evil franchise since essentially day one, Resident Evil 2 was always my favorite due to the unheard of (at the time) replay value.
