Mikami said that he wanted the feeling of killing zombies and fighting for your life to feel new to players. Completely hilarious and unnecessary because the series universe is already bloated with anti-bioterrorism organizations (BSAA, Terra Save, DSO), yet. There's literally no reason to revive them other than fan-service and low quality bait 'Hey look folks, Umbrella's back'. The original game coined the genre “Survival Horror” and has been an inspiration for plenty of other horror games since. Looks like they just 'forgot' the whole Neo-Umbrella affair from RE6. Many of the developers of the original game were cited as saying that development was very hectic and that all the testing and debugging of the game was done in-house. Resident Evil was originally made by Shinji Makami and Tokuro Fujiwara with Makami often working on the game in his free time before presenting it to Capcom.Ĭapcom was impressed by the game and thought that with the introduction of 3D gaming that the PlayStation had brought, that a horror game would thrive on the system, and oh boy were they right. It was initially supposed to be a reboot for the Japanese game, Sweet Home, which was also based on a horror movie of the same name.
First created by Capcom back and released in 1996, Resident Evil was an instant hit. The franchise has spanned decades and has become one of the most successful games series of all time.
If you’re a fan of horror games then there is no doubt that you have played Resident Evil.
