How Resident Evil 3 Remake Changed Jill Valentine
2026.03.02 09:11
An update one should certainly expect from a Resident Evil 4 remake is the refinement of the mobility and aiming mechanics. Resident Evil stuck with the tank-controls aiming technique for the longest time, but eventually evolved to allow for more freedom of movement without sacrificing the series' evocative feeling of vulnerability. Resident Evil 2 Remake is a prime example of this , eschewing the stationary aiming design and allowing players to reposition ever so slowly. But on the flipside of this, the remake should be careful not to slip too far from the original game's constraints. Resident Evil 4 's weapon aiming had realistic weapon shake where every slight adjustment required the upmost precision. A Resident Evil 4 remake shouldn't lose that aspect of its tactical gameplay, but should at least allow for more mobility in com
Back when RE4's released, additional characters that needed to be occasionally saved were annoying and a downright drain on enjoyment. An update could see developers do more with Ashley while making her more of a teammate and less of a bur
**Resident Evil 3 ** was revealed during December’s State of Play broadcast and with it came a somewhat surprising amount of information. The game’s release date, pre-order bonuses, editions, and gameplay were all revealed in an impressively short amount of time. As with _ Resident Evil 2, _ the newly announced remake of _ Resident Evil 3 _ is being built on Capcom’s RE Engine which has also powered _ Devil May Cry 5 _ and _ Resident Evil 7: Biohazar
From there, a Resident Evil 4 remake could continue making miniscule changes, but there's not really much else to tackle ideally. Resident Evil 4 's experience was already an incredibly well-balanced experience that any changes beyond the aforementioned may work to cheapen a remake in the spirit of the original game. Though Capcom has found success in implementing radical changes as well , it'd be interesting to see how a reimagining could be tackled for Resident Evil
Another aspect of Resident Evil 4 that was innovative for the time was its sense of scale, despite its linearity. Leon runs through rural Spanish villages, mineral mines, gothic castles, modern military installations, etc. Even in its 15-20 hour runtime, players travel to such an interesting variety of locales that the game is perceived to be much grander than it is. Even now, as the game creeps up to 15 years old, the world of Resident Evil 4 has a sense of sprawl balanced perfectly with its actual size. Now with modern technology allowing for higher graphical fidelity, a remake could see that scale expanded with larger highly detailed environments further beyond what the GameCube was capable of. Invoking that sense of scale that was so impactful in the original game would be perfect for a Resident Evil 4 rem
A new experience for the series, _ Resident Evil Resistance _ is the online mode that comes featured with _ Resident Evil 3 . _ It will be available to play on the same day as the single-player campaign. _ Resistance _ is a one versus four asymmetrical online multiplayer mode that pits one overpowered player, known as the Mastermind, against four players, known as the survivors, in distr
Having said all that, is Capcom's portrayal of Jill in the remake different from the original? With everything we know so far, the answer to that would be yes, Capcom did take a different approach in Jill's personality, but the developers were still able to retain her overall character. She remains independent and capable, compassionate to others but tough on her enemies. Sure, she is a little bit sassier than her previous portrayals but her comebacks are always within rea
Considering RE4 is known to sell better than Code: Veronica , it's more than likely Capcom will go with the money. The game was even able to sell roughly 1.6 million units for their 2016 re-release on Xbox One and PS4 . And that was just another remaster. When profits come first, Code: Veronica will need to take a back s
If Capcom wants to get to the root of what initially made the RE series special, they should stick along the survival horror route. The recent remake of Resident Evil 3 already brings fans into a horror/action-adventure Game cheats hybrid. With a RE4 remake, Capcom would be venturing even further away from the survival horror set
For RE4 , even though the graphics aren't as sharp as today's, it still relatively holds up. The characters are easy to make out, and the settings aren't terrible. It also just received a 2016 HD remaster. Does this game really need the pol
Yes, there are parts in the game that are startling and downright creepy. But whether it was the fact that fixed camera angles were gone or the horde of parasite-infested visitors, this RE4 game moved forward on what started with RE3 —a greater reliance on the action-oriented play and mowing down enem
Of course, some may argue that Carlos and Mikhail are mere mercenaries of Umbrella and are not responsible for the Raccoon City outbreak. While that argument is valid, it is worth pointing out that in today's Jill Valentine-centered trailer , it was revealed that Jill herself realized this later in the game, and even started to apologize to Carlos. The trailer also showed how Jill and Carlos's relationship improved, and how they started to rely on each other to survive the outbreak. This goes to show that after realizing that Carlos was not deeply involved with Umbrella, Jill started treating him like a partner, showing that her sarcastic remarks earlier in the game were not made for the sake of appearing mean-spiri
