The zombies in this game terrified me, but not because they were gonna eat me. No: the zombies in this game terrified me because they were gonna kill me and reset to the last time I saved.

After attempting to play Resident Evil 7 and Resident Evil 2 Remake as well as both this game and its 1996 original, it’s probably best that I come to terms with the fact that I simply do not like this series. Not only am I not a fan of this sort of “inventory management” horror, but I also don’t find solace in playing as/watching venerated and heroic depictions of police officers without any formal element to counterbalance this (serious question since I admittedly do not know any of the lore: do the cops in these game do anything else that couldn't also be done by just random people with guns?). I’ve also never quite found any appeal in the stories of Resident Evil as a series.

It’s worth pointing out that this is the best game in the franchise, mainly due to its intensely dark and mesmerizing art direction, which features lavishly decorated environments seeping in some of the most gorgeous lighting I’ve ever witnessed in any video game, maybe ever. It would also be criminal of me not to mention the fantastic soundtrack that accompanies the superb art style (the safe room theme is my personal fav). This era of pre-rendered environments with static camera angles and tank controls came and went much too fast for my liking, and quite frankly it’s a period in the video games industry that I honestly think is greatly underappreciated, as we still haven’t seen a new wave of video games as striking as this one in quite some time.



Long story short; I’m more of a Silent Hill boy :3

No notes, just incredible. I can't decide whether I prefer this or RE4R as my favourite RE game.

Não tem como definir esse jogo em outro termo... obra prima.

Resident Evil é o ápice do survival horror, o level design da mansão é genial, planejando tudo o que você tem que fazer pra avançar, sendo algo bloqueado no começo e la pro final liberando, o terror e fragilidade que você sente de cada nova criatura que encontra, o gameplay mais travado te fazendo tomar muito cuidado com cada passo e recurso que você gasta, criando um terror psicológico incrível. Resident evil 1 merece todo elogio e merito de ser um dos maiores jogos de survival horror ja feitos.
