/vr/ - Retro Games

sweet home is very different from alone in the dark. So I don't see what you are comparing here. From a game design perspective I also don't see how RE hugely improved on AitD basic premise. The main difference is, that RE runs on 4 years newer specialised 3d technology, that runs nothing but the game and a bigger marketing campaign.

As mentioned before other differences are art direction and story which sure helped. But without any doubt, RE is a near 1 to 1 clone of AitD and I bet most RE players don't know it. The problem here is not that RE is a clone of another game, the problem is, that people think RE invented 3d survival horror...
