Resident Evil 4 Remake Is The Perfect Opportunity To Explain Confusing Detail

In the original Resident Evil 4 storyline, the parasites were found in a particular cave in a mountainous region of Spain, and had been used by Los Iluminados cultists hundreds of years ago to mutate themselves and obtain incredible strength and resilience. This all stopped when the Spanish Inquisition flexed its power and crushed them, leaving successors known as castellans to guard over the cave from their castle, and ensure its clos


This significantly links the Las Plagas parasites in Resident Evil 4 to the series on a larger level, giving the story more meaning and definition in the Resident Evil timeline than it had previously. It even connects Resident Evil 4 to G-Virus in a strong way, which had a presence in both Resident Evil 1 and 2 in infecting Resident Evil 2's William Birkin , and birthing itself in Umbrella's human experiment: Lisa Tre


Some observers believe that this revelation could drastically change Resident Evil 4's storyline and explain away the Las Plagas parasites as beings artificially engineered by Umbrella this time around. However, this would completely re-write the Resident Evil 4 storyline, as the Las Plagas parasites would no longer have been discovered by militant cultists hundreds of years


This revelation not only ties a potential Resident Evil 4 Remake closer into the fabric of Resident Evil's universe and timeline, but Resident Evil 4 Remake could also provide a lot of possible background information and insights into the creation of the Nemesis in Resident Evil 3, specifically the mysterious parasite that helped create the Nemesis in Umbrella's European facilities. The origins of this Nemesis parasite will hopefully be addressed in Resident Evil 4 Rema


PlayStation's Tim Turi did an interview with Resident Evil 3's development staff regarding the Nemesis creature, and Adventuregameland.com blog post it was revealed that its new ability to infect zombies was the result of its relation to the Las Plagas-infected hosts known as the Ganado in Resident Evil 4 . "We wanted NE-a infected enemies [enemies infected by the Nemesis] to be visually similar to the Plagas-infected Ganados as a means for fans to piece together how Nemesis fits within the whole Resident Evil franchi


It is also possible that Capcom could tune-down the action in comparison to the original, and create an experience more akin to the Resident Evil 3 Remake, or a unique experience that truly attempts to mend the survival horror and action genres in innovative ways. This could certainly put to rest the historical controversy among some die-hard Resident Evil fans over whether or not Resident Evil 4 took the series in the right direction or not, or whether Resident Evil 4 could still be considered a survival-horror ga


Resident Evil's G-Virus was essentially a fusion of various T-Virus samples and the Nemesis parasite that were tested on Lisa Trevor over many years. The various T-Virus samples in her body caused her immune system to kill the Nemesis parasite and fuse with it, resulting in the accidental birth of the mighty G-Virus, which Umbrella removed from


Suffice to say, Resident Evil 4 has definitely shown its age. Given that Resident Evil 4 was both a unique detour for the Resident Evil series, as well as one of the best overall action games of that era, a Resident Evil 4 Remake certainly has some big shoes to fill if it is to ignite the necessary nostalgia, while also creating something refreshingly

Judging from the trailers we’ve seen thus far, Breath of the Wild 2 is going to be rather similar to its predecessor - at least in terms of moment-to-moment gameplay. The version of Hyrule we explored in the last game is making a return, with Link stumbling across familiar landmarks and enemies with an outfit and movements we recognise from the last game. I imagine towns have been rebuilt and the region is a little more alive now Calamity Ganon has been vanquished, but the layout is likely similar. Because of this, the way in which we explore this world should remain recognisable, so returning players feel welcome and newcomers aren’t alienated by a sequel that challenges some of its younger sibling’s most daring and creative ideas.


For the first time, the new revelation gives Resident Evil 4's parasitic enemies a significant role in the Resident Evil universe and timeline, and a directly links them to Resident Evil's Umbrella Corporation . Before Capcom revealed this information, little was revealed about the origins of the Nemesis parasite, other than it was an artificially created parasite made in Umbrella's European facilities. The context of this parasite nor its origins were ever disclosed, until

The removal of design decisions previously viewed as irksome would undermine so much of what Breath of the Wild managed to achieve, and the last thing I want to see is Nintendo steering its formula in a direction that abides by more traditional genre conventions. Assassin’s Creed and similar games of this ilk are arguably more akin to content mill, built to draw you in for hundreds of hours even if much of that time is filled with uninspired busywork. The time you spend with the game is what matters, and Breath of the Wild managed to challenge a system that has become increasingly tired in the eyes of players. Its sequel needs to continue chasing that ambition, and not compromise on its own design ethos.
