Resident Evil: Code Veronica X Retrospective - WitchTaunter

[@WitchTaunter]

Did you come down to the comments to say that CVX is worse than RE3? Well guess what, I agree! I gave RE3 a 6/10, and CVX a 5/10. I accidentally put RE3 behind CVX in the conclusion. Whoopsie! Other corrections would include that CVX was not literally intended to be RE3, that info came from a mistranslation that was circulated for the longest time. Claire gets captured in the beginning because she has no ammo, I just never noticed. And no, Rodrigo isn't black, I just thought it was funny.

[@aaronlockley9207]

I love CV, it has a special place in resident evil game lore, and definitely needed a Remake more than RE4.

[@jamessunderland8162]

If and when this is remade, I PRAY TO GOD that they keep and include all of his laughs throughout the game. It was my most anticipated part while playing/ watching this game.

​@jamessunderland8162 But those are only good in a "so bad it's good sense". If remade, this game has a chance to have actually interesting and creepy villains with even elements of psychological horror. It'd be a shame to waste that for some memes.

Re4 was the safe remake since its a much more critcally acclaimed game, but yes CV needs one more than any of them that are left, it was my first RE, and i would love to see it made for current audiences

[@nikikeya939]

In defense of Steve, he's a 17 year old kid, with no life experience, feel its a little bit harsh to get mad at him. I couldn't, since he's literally just Tidus from FFX whole sale. I didn't mind him, is sad he died. But Capcom can't let Leon have even imagined competition for Claire's heart. (Despite them having no real chemistry either.)

[@jiggycalzone8585]

This is probably my favourite depiction of Wesker in the series. Hes nearly at the peak of his power but still a cog in a much larger nefarious machine, and I like how much he takes delight in how big the gap is between him and a "mortal" like Chris. Its not that he is *not* taking advantage of the opportunity to kill Chris, its that whether he does or not it wont impact his ultimate goal at all so f it he'll 'play with his food' and take advantage of exits to keep it going as long as possible, laughing along the way + Every one of Steves lines is absolute gold

Isn't it weird that both Survivor and Veronica use Umbrella Islands that serve as prisons? YES. It IS weird, my friend.

It sucks that Steve gets so much hate. Given his age and what happened to him his childish personality matches him well. He's one of the most memorable RE characters imo. I would choose Steve over Ethan any day. At least he had a personality

I was 19 when I first played this game in 2000; didn’t particularly desire to kiss any young women when they were sleeping… The vagaries of college regardless.

No it doesn't. Many people have a hard life and don't act like children, and as also pointed out here they don't try to kiss someone while they're asleep.

@@antelasic1950but are these people kept away from society for years? I agree with the kissing thing, but other than that he’s a 17 year old who has been locked away on an island prison. I think he gets a pass for some of his actions since he doesn’t have anyone telling him right from wrong.

Code Veronica/X (both Dreamcast versions) are probably my favorite of the whole series, alongside REmake and 4. Something about the weird tone with the royalty and all that, it fits well with the series and also stands on it’s own.

[@Danstevo420]

4 sucks ass

[@ItsXodious]

been eagerly awaiting this one. Veronica X was always this weird pariah of the series amongst people ive known, but I never understood why. It was harder, sure. Steve was perhaps one of the most obnoxious characters in the series that makes Ashley seem likable, but I thought the game was still really good and it was exciting to see Claire again!

[@RaZeRbLaDeZ]

Weird how?

[@Jose-se9pu]

It came out on a console nobody own it, and when it was ported to other consoles, people were already either tired of the genre, or just playing Silent Hill 2 or REmake.

[@GarseJanacek]

It's because most people didn't have it because of the Sega exclusivity. If it had a wide release when it initially dropped it would be considered as one of the best. Game is very underrated.

[@JavaBum]

It's because they didn't play RE as it was coming out, and only played it because "old games are cool" in their eyes. Let's not mince this. It's the same thing when it comes to FF games and Chrono Trigger over Chrono Cross. People will always be sheep and will bleat when asked to bleat. Because "ppl on net know what they're talking about."

Praying for a CV remake 😭😭😭

[@cillianennis9921]

if they do they better make it like they did the RE1 & RE4 remakes where they only changed what needed improvements & mainly added to the game instead of RE2 & RE3 which are good games but not the best remakes since they cut so much. RE2 remake is the better of the remakes but it does the characters oddly making some really dumb like removing Annette's loyalty to her family & that's why she cares about the G-virus so much as its her families legacy. Ada also is weird removing her kinda arc & Leon also kinda loses his one drive to save people no matter what. Claire is the worst as she just lost all her strong character to become a silly strong woman trope thing & Sheri is pretty unchanged & Irons has alright changes. Marvin is improved but I hate those scenes where the player character says we should get you to a hospital. huh the police station is in pieces & they think the hospital will not be completely overran with zombies.

[@Kinsect101]

[@effieli7230]

Music in this game is simply outstanding, it actually saved the scene where Steve died, making it somewhat sad. Anyways, I never felt that it was about "feelings" more so that Claire viewed Steve like a silly younger brother. He got such dorky voice and lame lines.. yeah, a kid basically. Claire looks much more mature and capable.

Code Veronica is one of my favorites behind the original. I own all versions but the Dreamcast stands as my favorite way to experience it. VMU status, and switching between two discs, the whole experience stands strong in my memories.

3:53 so she ends up captured because she ran out of ammo. you can see the reciever pulled back and locked in place as the magazine has ran dry. they both know shes out of ammo (Thought i wouldnt put it past RE writers to have claire try to fight her way out of a handgun in her face when she has no ammo anyway. They've already done more ridiculous moves in just the half minute prior)

[@WitchTaunter]

That makes sense visually, but I don't know why we only see her fire one shot. Unless they are implying Claire came in with one round, or capped some goons before the moment we see.

She fired a few shots at the fuel tanks, and most likely fired the rest at security getting in, etc...either way yeah shes out of ammo lol

I finished Code Veronica yesterday for the first time ever and I surprisingly enjoyed this game! Sure, I played it on easy because I've heard about its difficulty but despite a lot of backtracking and annoying locations (like the little passage with moths) I had a really good time with it. The story was interesting, characters were goofy in a positive way and it was the classic RE experience that I love so much. I don't think I will replay it again because it's not as replay-friendly like the first three RE games but still, it was a great game!

[@PugLifeProductions]

I remember when I first moved to England, bought a ps2 and was like ‘holy crap, there’s another RE game?!’ (I only knew the original three and Survivor which we shall not speak of.) the mix of oldschool mechanics and updated graphics was awesome, really enjoyed it.

If you got a copy of resident evil code Veronica at the time it came out new atrelease for the Sega Dreamcast, you were set!! Aside from Shenmue, one of the first and truly next generation experiences that year and it was phenomenal!! It is the resident evil that I feel Most deserves the remake treatment being as it is the last game in the “true survival horror style format“ and as such it is a no-brainer?!?! The true survival horror of the first three games and code Veronica, in my opinion have always been what “real RE” it is all about!! Sure, I like the third person over the shoulder more action oriented games like the resident evil two remake, but I can only play those games and beat them a couple times and then I am bored, whereas the original games I can run through those hundreds of times over and get enjoyment each time out of trying to get better and better at my run.. I grew up with the originals, what can I say?!

[@antelasic1950]

Did you just forget about RE 0? That's the last true survival horror game. Also you can have a preference, that's totally fine, but the reasoning of "I can get better with each run" can also be applied to the third person games.

[@solidariusgaming2854]

​@@antelasic1950 Yeah RE0 he did forget to mention, but the new remakes aren't nearly as compelling, charming, or fun as the originals. RE4R is fun don't get me wrong, but it's nowhere near as good as og RE4. RE1R is the only one that is literally better than the original.

Resident Code Veronica was never "originally designed as a true sequel to RE2." That's actually a common misconception. It started out conceptually as the port of RE2 to the Sega Saturn, but eventually evolved into an RE game with an original story exclusively for the Dreamcast at the request of Sega staff. RE3 was originally a spinoff noted as RE1.9 that eventually got promoted to mainline status. Code Veronica was a side game from the beginning.

I think things aren't exactly as you mention in the video. 1. the nosferathu fight is supposed to be hard and I love it. It sounds like you are complaining how hard the fight is which is weird 2. Alexa was released too early from cryostasis. I think Alexander released her too early because the island was under attack and he was afraid she couldn't defend herself. That's why she starts mutating. Everything makes sense unlike in all other RE games. 3. being cameras everywhere even in the snow around the base and there are camera drones establish when wesker uses them. I don't see that as unusual. 4. You trying to find arguments against Steve and Claire romance. You saying you understand women? I think the game is right. Again, what you are trying to say is absurd Other than that excellent video. I hate the x version of code veronica. It's so stupid. The original was perfect

[@WitchTaunter]

1. I didn't just complain about the difficulty, I criticized a lot of the readability of various aspects of the fight, and the general cheapness of insta-kill attacks. 2. Alexia is frozen in 1983, and thawed in 1998, which is the appropriate fifteen years. Even if we assume Alfred dethawed her in a different room she is stored in, since we don't see him do anything except limp in and die there, the dates are still super convenient. 3. Wesker used robots way after Alexia saw the destroyed vehicle, and having cameras point out at nothing is weird, and it getting the exact shot it needed is weirder. 4. Good writing is when romantic feelings correlate with negative traits. Women, amiright?

The romance between Steve and Claire makes no sense and is inappropriate. She’s 20-21 and he’s 17. I don’t like that. Also it thematically doesn’t fit. The rest of the game is about siblings: particularly brother and sister. Wouldn’t it have been better if Steve had an older sister that got killed by Umbrella and he resents his dad not just for getting them sent to the island but for the death of his sister? And since Steve in this alternate scenario lost an older sister and Claire is trying to find her brother, Steve would view Claire as an older sister and care about her that way. It would fit in better thematically and would take away the weird leering aspect of Steve. It would also make him more likeable.

Incorrect. The sequel to re2 was being developed for dreamcast, while a spin off story was being developed for Playstation. Code Veronica was promoted as the sequel to re2, but Sony made a deal with Capcom for the rights to the title "resident evil 3". Since the move to the newer, more powerful consoles was inevitable, they pushed the release date for CV from late 1999 to early 2000. Code Veronica was originally intended to be the true sequel, and is still referred as such be the creators

​@@NicePantsLance No it isn't. This has been debunked multiple times now. Thay were both originally spin offs. The real 3 was a game Kamiya worked on that was canceled due to being to early in development for the ps1 when the ps2 was coming out.

Better the RE3?! I mean it is subjective but 3 had a lot more gameplay editions while Veronica just has regressions. It's still a very good video but some things worth pointing out. CV was never meant to be RE3. Both CV and Nemesis were both spin offs originally, just because one wasn't supposed to be 3 originally doesn't mean the other was. Actually the real 3 was a game Kamiya worked on that was canceled because it would come out after the PS2 so they then had him develop RE4 while a game closer to completion was made into RE3. And honestly Nemesis deserves it more than CV. It felt like it added a lot more to the gameplay then CV did, and what CV did add wasn't necessarily good (like 3D environments). But to also defend the game a bit, I think a lot of the issues aren't as bad as people say. The tyrant on the plane is only a problem if you rushed through everything and didn't pick up some slightly hidden ammo, but you also fought everything in your path since even without the extra ammo you should have enough if you evade enemies. But if you did that one would assume you'd have extra healing items since if you attacked everything to be safe you shouldn't have used herbs that much, so you can either spam healing items and use the knife or stall and kill him with several catapult shots alone. Actually most bosses one hit moves aren't that bad. Especially with the checkpoints. And Alexia's third form can be melted with the gun powder bolts. Also the method to dodge Steve is really easy to do. To get through it with no damage you need to be almost perfect, but if you come in with full health you can easily get away with only one hit. Lastly the trap before Steve has really generous timing (at least on dreamcast, not sure if they made it worse in other versions.). I never had a problem running from one side to the other or dropping and picking up the card. And the fire extinguisher is a mistake on the players end. In RE the second an item is not needed the game tells you so and gets rid of it. Since it never does that here you should assume it will be useful later.

When I was young I couldnt figure it out, took me 12 years later but was a good game enough

CV need a HARD REMAKE. Good retrospective.

Code veronica was never meant to be re3, they were both side games from the start, capcom just wanted free money on the ps1 for re3

CV is a blast only thing I didn’t really understand is if Clair could ask Leon to contact Chris this whole time why did she even bother going to Paris and get herself thrown into prison lol 😅
