RE0 cons:

>If Billy truly had to exist and be in the game, he should have been a supporting character like Barry was to Jill in RE1 and just fucking let me play as Rebecca the whole game

Probably missing a lot, but both of these games can never be better than 6/10, and I only like them because they are fixed angle RE games.

The stories in both are gameruiningly retarded and the puzzles are made by retards who don't even understand the real-world objects being used in the puzzles because they've never gone outside, leading to the actual intuitively correct solutions being the wrong solutions. The backtracking and bosses are shite too. If I had to pick which is shittier, I'd say 0 because of the partner system.

Continues the overall story and is not stalling like Nemesis and 0. Introduces villians who are more charismatic which would become a series staple. Ending is not pre determined like 0. Veronica has better locations and set pieces unlike the drab setting of 0.

Well, Nemesis does give the Racoon City incident a conclusion. And as retarded as it is, if you think that the Ashfords from CV have the right to exist in the canon then so does Marcus. Nothing wrong with it, I don't understand how people who liked the Ashfords would dislike Marcus
>Veronica has better locations and set pieces unlike the drab setting of 0.
Veronica has cool locations and set pieces but at their best they are still worse than anything from 0. If there's one good thing about 0 it's the environmental design. I mean, the train sequence from 0 is better than all of the areas from CV combined. I'm not defending 0 by any means, it's not a very good game and CV is way better but you gotta give credit where credit is due

You haven't played the game. in RE2 the survivors flee Raccoon City and the town is left as is. RE3 moves the franchise story forward by concluding the Raccoon City chapter so the series can go on in other places.
Plus RE2 was baiting by having the Stars office empty, leaving the player to wonder wtf happened to everyone, did they die or what. RE3 answers that for 3 characters. And without Jill's character growth through RE3, the following games that use wouldn't make sense either.

The whole mentality like "RE3 doesn't matter and it does nothing and it's not even a proper sequel" reeks of butthurt CVfags that are still coping about their game being a spin-off rather than a main title

Both pros:

- Both a have a "torture chamber" zone full of torture devices.

- Both have a main female characters and a main male character.

Both cons:

- In both there are not female zombies. Is a extremely wasted potencial there are not female zombie soldiers in re zero and not female prisoner zombies in code veronica. At least in resident evil outbreak 1, outbreak 2, re 3 and re 2 there are some female zombies.

Summary: is a tie.

Never got this. Claire's story winds down pretty naturally, and Chris' story continues starting from the pace hers has through the Antarctica section.
>>should play as claire OR chris in a separate runs like jill/chris and claire/leon
That goes against the point. The big reveal of CV is that the two scenarios are layered ontop of each other.
Also, adding a "Chris scenario" breaks the narrative, and having it be unlocked after finishing Claire changes fucking nothing.
>>grey dreary shithole non prerendered environments
They look good.
>>wesker is now neo but with a virus inside of him
Dumbest critique. Don't like how Wesker is in CVX? Play CV. There.

Two parts that are predicated on the challenge of aiming. One of them gives you a chance for a near instant kill, and the other has infinite ammo.

CV is a classic RE game in the truest sense of its gameplay loop and the level design. Plus its lengthy too.

0 on the other hand is a failed experiment worth playing once for the visuals but the longer the game goes on, the more it falls apart. Its so rough around the edges even if you disregard the common complaints, feels like one of the infamous RE clones that are barely playable.

Only because they retardedly mashed the 2 characters' campaigns together (Claire + Chris) instead of them being separate.

If you want longest RE, that would be 2 since you technically have 4 different campaigns.

You will never own a toilet. You have no social standing, you have no money, you have no bob or vegenes to play with. You are an unhygenic man twisted by curry, feces and urine into a crude mockery of nature's perfection.

All the "good mornings!" you get are two-face and half-hearted. Behind your back people mock you. Your street shitting buddies are disgusted and ashamed of you, your "bloody basterds" laugh at you behind their closed doors.

Toilets are utterly repulsed by you. Thousands of years of technology and science have allowed toilets to flush with incredible efficiency. Even Indians who shit in toilet look uncanny and unnatural to a seasoned plumber. Your E.Coli ridden feces are a dead giveaway. And even if you manage to find a toilet in the bathroom, the toilet itself will turn tail and bolt the second it gets a whiff of your diseased, curry shit smelling anus.

You will never be able to shit without anyone watching and judging. You wrench out a few meager "good mornings" at the start of the day and tell yourself it's going to be ok, but deep inside you feel the shit you hold creeping up like a weed, ready to rush out of your anus as your cheeks try to hold the unbearable weight.

Eventually it'll be too much to bear - you'll buy a rope, tie a noose, put it around your neck, scam a crypto fag, and redeem yourself into the cold abyss. Your basterds will find you, heartbroken but relieved that they no longer have to live with the unbearable stench you brought to the designated shitting street. They'll bury you without toilet paper, and every passerby for the rest of eternity will know a street shitting pajeet is buried there. Your remaining shit will decay and go back to the dust, and all that will remain of your pathetic life is a "good morning" text that was never opened.
