The general sentiment about Resident Evil 3 Remake is that it delivers a visually impressive and action-packed experience but falls short when compared to both its predecessor and the original game due to the absence of significant content and its shift towards a more linear and action-oriented approach. While many appreciate its smooth gameplay and character portrayals, the game's short length and lack of core elements from its predecessor leave some feeling underwhelmed.

Positive Points

  • Resident Evil 3 Remake is praised for its modern graphics, smooth gameplay mechanics, and cinematic storytelling, delivering a visually enhanced experience.
  • The game retains strong character portrayals, particularly Jill Valentine, who is depicted as a strong and determined protagonist.
  • Nemesis, as a persistent and intense antagonist, adds a unique layer of tension and challenge throughout the game.
  • The nostalgic elements, such as revisiting locations like Raccoon City and the R.P.D., are enjoyable for fans of the series.
  • Negative Points

  • The game is criticized for being too short, with some players able to complete it in under 5 hours, leading to its perception as overpriced for the content offered.
  • A significant amount of content from the original 1999 game was cut, including key locations and gameplay elements.
  • Some players feel that the game leans too heavily on scripted sequences, reducing the dynamic feel of Nemesis as a stalking threat.
  • The game is described as more action-oriented, losing some of the survival horror atmosphere that characterized earlier entries.
  • Mixed Points

  • While the dodge mechanic introduced for Jill is seen as a positive addition, its implementation is criticized for being inconsistent.
  • The game's shift towards action over horror received mixed reactions, with some appreciating the intensity, while others missed the traditional survival horror elements.
  • Common Themes

  • The game's short length and cut content are a frequent point of contention among players, impacting perceived value.
  • Nemesis's role as a scripted, rather than dynamic, antagonist is a recurring topic in discussions about missed opportunities for tension.
