>BTW do you think CV has a good chance of being the next remake or is capcom gonna jump on 4 directly (even though it doesn't really need one)?
They've been (hopefully joking) about re-re-making RE1. Again. I shit you not.
Apparently, if it's not similar enough to late 2010's shooty-tooty games, it's not "financially advisable" to AAA studios. No matter that REmake's HD ports sold kazillions overnight, and were practically the sole reason RE7 and REm2 happened.
Never played a Resident Evil game before. Should I just start with the Remake, or is it worth playing the original RE1...
I played the first Resident Evil game last halloween and I was impressed with how good it is. You owe it to yourself to try the original if you care about good games or how games have changed over time.
I love the old RE1 but its aged like milk. Might get some fun out doing the remake after 1 I guess
if you do play the first one, do the DS version or psx NON dual shock Greatest hits version. dualshock version had shit tier replacement soundtrack youtube.com
>re-re-making RE1. Again
This would be stupid on sso many levels. Remake 1 is still incredibly solid, pretty and fun as fuck to play. CV could be great though, hopefully RE3 will be a big success and capcom will see that fans are waiting for that
Play REmake, remake 2, probably remake 3, 4, 5 and 7. Rest are shit, avoid Revelations in particular. Best ones are remake 1, remake 2 and 4.
>but its aged like milk
Hard disagree. I played it for the first time recently and it was a great time.
>Should I just start with the Remake, or is it worth playing the original RE1?
Definitely play the classic RE1, 2 and 3 first.
I seriously don't see any reasons why you wouldn't, even more so when the REmake PLAYS identical to the classics - just with a handful of new tricks and minor QOL improvements.
The first REmake was made by the original devs, to the veteran fans of the franchise, so the devs made sure to not only incorporate as many ideas they originally couldn't on PS1 hardware, but they also tried to ensure that returning players couldn't just safely rely on their past knowledge of RE1 to cheese it through.
Anyway, with the OG-RE1,you got... a mountain of options:
>The original 1996 RE on PS1, Saturn and PC (minor differences).
>the first "Director's Cut" version on PS1 and PC, with new content.
>the second, notorious "Director's Cut - Dual Shock Edition", with the terribad new OST.
>Nintendo DS port, "Deadly Silence"; arguably the best version with new stuff + QOL upgrades.
For RE2 and 3, there's a few less versions, but the GC ports are mostly sought-after ones.
There's fine PC ports too, but they aren't on digital distribution services, and need fan-patches to run OK now.
If you just wanna PLAY the games and that's it, and don't mind 240p visuals, just emulate the PS1 classics.

Literally everything released after RE4 are increasingly more and more shitty, you underaged Xbot tranny.
This. Original RE1 holds up extremely well, unless your first gaming system was an Xbox 360, and thought that you were getting into a simple and linear zombie-shootan series.
Ignore every other faggot, here's the order
