MODERATORS
I treat the three eras of Resident Evil as their own separate entities, but if I had to pick one from each
Classic Era: RE2 (1998). REmake is a great game and probably the pinnacle of classic survival horror in many ways but the story and characters really let it down for me. RE1/Remake is like some straight-to-video Italian zombie flick while RE2 is an 80s James Cameron movie
Middle Era: Resident Evil 4. The first of the action oriented Resident Evils. Self-aware, campy and most crucially of all it was still an uncompromised single-player game
Modern Era: I'd like to give it to RE7 since it was a solid, original entry that revitalised the franchise after the huge stinker that was RE6, but the RE2 remake is a better put together game overall even if half of what makes it good was just recycled from the 1998 original
I want to play that, feels like it gets overlooked now thanks to the remakes and village.
