  1. "Resident Evil 3" kinda reminds me of "Dino Crisis" when it comes to the choice system. What I most like about the latter is the characters's body language. So much depth is developed though those.

  2. Love how you used a slightly deeper but clearer version of the OG Nemesis' voice. Every version after that just never hit the same. UC was too robotic, digital, and the other versions? They didn't feel… organic, I'd want to say.

  3. Fun fact: Resident Evil 3 actually started off with two different ideas. The first was a demon-slaying action game directed by Hideki Kamiya. But that would ultimately become Devil May Cry while the second is what we got, Resident Evil 3: Nemesis.

  4. I love your lore videos
    I have marathoned your resident evil videos, both the original and now this one, multiple times
    and I have watched and rewatched your castlevania videos SO many times, especially when playing games like V Rising

  5. The vast numbers of helicopters lost throughout the entire RE Series to zombies is a story in itself. Never really noticed until RE 4 and slowly looked back to RE 2 and RE 3.

  6. I believe CC shud of had the Og re trilogy as 1 timeline, the remake trilogy as another…

    With more detailed aspects fir both & the spinoff Outbreak as a 3rd….

    Plus revelations as Canon to the main or remake timeline….

  7. Did the Spencer Outbreak or RE 0 plot line do anything to hasten the end of Raccoon City? Or was it just a random coincidence it occurred a couple months before but didn’t actually lead anywhere.

  8. 1. With the exception of the segments that detail the development behind the games themselves, I think I still much prefer the original RE timeline series you made, if for no other reason than that I just think it's hella well done and gives me everything I want out of a timeline like that, from a cohesive lore perspective, 'canonicity' be damned.

    2. Y'know, it's crazy that even after nearly TWO DECADES later, Raccoon City STILL has content to spare to go over, find and/or talk about… Hell, the amount of space left open for fan fans to just 'fill in' and run with and/or create their own lore is in itself pretty wild… Especially with 'discarded' elements like 1.5.
    Also, while 3REmake isn't a bad game, is a crappy remake, insofar as it was more of a reimagining and not a legitimate remake in the way RE1's REmake or even 2's REmake was.

  9. Great Vid as well a great way to make this one different from original one and the new one you made when RE3 remake came out. Also the footage for RE3 original man that look really sharp. Can't wait to see delta team in the next video

  10. The only issue i have with this, is that you place RE:Outbreak on the evening of Sept 28th, meaning that in 1 day ALL Police / Fire department forces were destroyed, i'd say its more realistic if it was put on the 26th, leaving a more realistic timeframe where the police and fire department are wittled down (Infact, the official Resident Evil fandom puts the events at jacks bar and everything that occured that night on September 24th.
    so about 24 hours after the virus broke out. (Which would line up with how we see a lack of Military forces in the city, and lack of proper evacuations as the Raccoon Zoo evac was canonically set up on the morning of the 25th, and US Army forces entered the city around then too.
    The fact that there are still misconceptions about the Raccoon City outbreak clearly means that more games / remakes set in RC are required, as its hard to fully flesh out such an outbreak like that in only 3-4 games (2 of said games take place basically when the city has fallen)
    (Capcom giving us a movie about JJ and Dylan should so happen)

  11. Your video was perfect, as always. But as I predicted, the story is just of inferior quality to the older games (the difference between "Outbreak" and 3 is just astounashing):

    -The lack of Irons' paranoia;

    -No Delta Team from "Racoon City Operation";

    -Brad is suddenly brave, like, no character development explained;

    -I still hate the new camera angle;

    -Carlos's unnecessary change of design;

    -No real chaos. Umbrella is the center of corruption, but it should not be the ONLY evil thing in the city. Where's the feeling of insanity, that people are bound to break at any point in the main games ? And the action sequences had some more realism in the old games. It's too much action, the same way the new games are too much horror (as in, deorganized).
