What Made Resident Evil: Code Veronica One Hell of A Game?

[@georgelooney8949]

Code veronica was my first resident evil game. It will always hold a special place in my heart.

[@travisgraham2067]

Resident evil directors cut for ps1 was my first. Held a special place in my heart until I played resident evil 5. Funnest resident evil ever until I played resident evil 3 remake. Nemesis is the greatest stalker/villain in any resident evil to me.

[@PerceptionVsReality333]

It's one of my favorite RE games.

[@skycloud4802]

I loved it. One of my favourites. The knive is overpowered, but actually _love_ it for that, get close a personal slashing zombies and saving bucket loads of regular ammo. And the insane backtracking made me really excited to finally open those secret doors at the back of my mind.

[@ronaldocruz4594]

Same bro, on the ps2 🔥

[@magicjaycee123]

I love CV because I am die hard Claire Redfield fan and also it is my childhood game. My brother used to play it on PS2 when I was a kid while I watched and he tries to hand me the controller during the scariest part and then I'll get scared XD Great times.

[@joshuanelson6795]

I love how much attention Code Veronica has been getting ever since Capcom skipped over remaking it in favor of Resident Evil 4. This has always been one of my favorite entries in the series and have never understood why some dislike it.

[@michaell2248]

I finally completed playing first round of this game yesterday on a PS4, even though I had got PS2 and Gamecube versions of this game at 2000s already, and this downloadable version on PS4 had been bought for at least 4 years. I found this game is really unfriendly for a new fan, I gave up twice at the first scene, and never arrived at Training Facility scene during the past twenty years. Lack of supply and too many zombies at first scene made it die easily, with the too long and complex routes for solving puzzle, I have to control my temper to continue. I have been a Resident Evil fan since it was called Biohazard and I know how good reputation of this game have, but I can also understand why some people dislike Code Veronica.

[@joshuanelson6795]

@@michaell2248 It can definitely be unforgiving for first time players, but I'll never forget the immense satisfaction I felt when upon completing it for the first time.

[@Dembilaja]

I don't dislike it, I'm frustrated by the fact that I can't love this game... I had fascination with this game since my childhood despite not playing it until lot later. I'm a huge fan of og trilogy and despite being a fan of RE4 and playing through it numerous times, that game always felt like an actual spin off to me. CV was always essential part of the quadrology imo. But the game is not that good unfortunately. I love the fact that continues story of Claire and that Alyson Court returned to voice her, I love atmosphere, soundtrack is amazing too, however... This game is painful to play sometimes. Like many people have pointed out already, puzzles can be beyond absurd, like you have to constantly return to areas you assume you've already finished, and it gets really tiresome. Way game switches between Chris and Claire was weird, I expected that it would work similarly like in RE2, where each disc has each character's campaign on it, rather than everything being part of one continuous playthrough, which would be fine I guess if there was no weird inventory sharing mechanic... I also think that this game is really hard, I always ended up getting out of ammo and out of herbs too soon. It also can be very cheap, for example, you can enter a room for the first time, and just out of nowhere new type of stretchy enemy will hit you from different part of the room with its elastic arm, but you won't see it coming because of way RE camera works, and no sound effect to know that enemy is in the room. I also remember section where you play with Chris, and there was that door you get outside in that area near the tank, and moment doors open, two hunters start running into your direction, you have split second to react, enemies usually don't work that way in RE games, they have their own preprogramed paths, and reaction animation when they detect you, but in this case once you open that door you're most likely getting hit. First time I've played the game I legit thought how that was some sort of cutscene. Then there's that moth corridor... Why the enemies constantly respawn? Why they decided to break the rule of dead enemies not respawning for this section. Next to that corridor is that huge room, which is empty first time you enter, but later on it's filled with bunch of zombies all of the sudden, it's not like they've been lying down and reanimated in the meantime, rather they appear out of nowhere to surprise you, but it ends up being a cheap move. Speaking of cheapness, lets not forget boss fights, I legit needed to get so good and play that fight for hours so I could beat first Tyrant with knife, because I've wasted all of my ammo on him, and I had solid amount before entering that plane. There was no chance in hell that I would restart whole game, but I was really close to doing it. Then there is Steve monster, I'm convinced that you can't beat him without getting hit, same thing with final boss... Story is also ridiculous and all over the place. I can recap story of first three games in one sentence, same cannot be said about Code Veronica. All in all, I don't hate this game, I just don't understand people calling it GREAT, when there are games like 2 and 3 that are actually great, and that I could play all the time, while CV feels more like a chore.

[@brienthenewkid1576]

Code Veronica was one of the games in the series to give me a real wow and shock factor. The bosses and story design were so well done. They tied up ends and really entrenched you in the lore. The game, as I remember, was long but kept you entertained throughout with tyrants chasing you plenty of collectable and puzzles. Plus the map and number of locations for the time was huge! Then the moment when you're on the plane thinking you got away with it all. Only for the plane to crash in an arctic environment. That moment was just as good as the castle flipping in Castlevania: Symphony of the Night. Drawing you back in for more of a great game. This game deserved it more than RE4. To me RE4 felt more like a spin off than a continuation of the franchise. Still a great game, but a candle to the sun that was Code Veronica. Please Capcom. Hear my plea. And also...take my money. ❤

I find this game to be more of a comedy than survival horror. That's what I remember most of this game, the cheesy dialogue and cliche, matrix sequences.

That's Resident Evil in a nutshell. Horror and B-Movie cheese.

[@Chaso-1124]

They were all a comedy. None of them were overly serious or even scary. It's what made resident evil so great and why I don't like this new serious direction they're going in

[@BaxBoogey22]

@God Style I played the chainsaw demo and I know I am in the minority but I never liked re4. I was stubborn and liked fixed camera angles and I just thought that they changed the whole vibe and made it an action game and not survival horror and I hated having Ashley or any game with an AI partner I have to escort so I really resented 4 because I thought it ruined my favorite series. I know its loved and it's over the shoulder camera was highly influential but I still don't like 4 and I'm skipping the remake. It looks good visually but that demo brought back all the reasons why I disliked 4 in the first place but I get it I'm in a small minority and I fault no one for liking it. I honestly like tormented souls better than any resident ever released since code Veronica. Same with Gow and devil may cry. I love the old ones but I hate the removal of fixed camera angles so I dislike the new ones. I'm old school I guess.

I'm praying they remake this. It's cannon, follows Claires story directly following RE2. And was easily a lot more dated and clunky compared to RE4. Capcom could flush out the story and make it flow a lot better. If anything, this game should get the "capcom cut" as compared to the changes they made in the RE3 remake. Also, a RE1+RE0 remake in the modern RE engine would rule. And let's not forget Dino Crisis!

Bolt rarely let a chance slip to hate on the Resident Evil 3 Remake, while declaring Code Veronica a forgotten masterpiece. I do not think it works out like that. Code Veronica is a flawed game. The first half of the game, I would agree, is in most parts brillant in terms of design, atmosphere and overall gameplay. The story, on the other hand, turned quickly into some goofy mess with Steve as the most embararrassing character in a Resident Evil game including the most embarrassing scene in a Resident Evil game where he is involved in (the implied kiss). Alfred is some cross dressing weirdo who could be one of the reasons Capcom is afraid to remake this game. Every scene involving Wesker are only cutscenes and no actual boss-fights against him if I remember correct. Also, the game was censored during production and was made harder for the West so that people won't rent and play through the game. Code Veronica could be a good game and actually need a Remake more then Resident Evil 4, but I kinda doubt Capcom is going to do this so soon, if ever.
