Resident Evil Code: Veronica

released on Feb 03, 2000

Resident Evil Code: Veronica is the fourth video game in Capcom's Resident Evil survival horror series. The game continues the survival horror gameplay of its predecessors: the protagonist explores the surroundings, fighting monsters and solving puzzles. However, it is the first game in the series to do away with pre-rendered backgrounds using a fully polygonal 3D engine instead, which allows for features such as real-time lighting and camera movement. Still, such movements are only used sparingly, and the use of perspective is mostly unchanged from earlier installments: the camera automatically switches to different static angles showing protagonists, monsters and rooms from different spooky viewpoints.

Loved every minute of it. Same fixed camera gameplay as the previous games, but even more pleasant to play due to improved graphics on a more powerful hardware. Actual 3D environment adds a lot to the visuals, walking around with a lighter in unlit areas felt really atmospheric.
The vibe and the setting is really cool and terrifying, the game overall was more of a horror than RE3, which leans towards the action. Chris and Clare make a great duo and I think they both are quite underrated compared to Leon and Jill.
The challenge was just right, at least for me. People kept saying that the game is too hard, they all getting soft locked, so I prepared for worst - tried to be careful with health items, ammo and stuff then it's suddenly the end of the game and I have a shitton of it in my chest. Didn't even have to run past monsters without killing them or abuse the knife much.

Long story short, Code Veronica is my favourite Resident Evil so far. That might change after I play the remake of the original game though.

i missed wesker

Still better than RE3 remake lmao

this game was way to difficult i gave up on it.

jogo da minha infância e o primeiro resident evil que joguei na minha vida. Pela nostalgia é o meu favorito, eu amo tudo sobre ele. A história, os personagens ABSOLUTAMENTE TUDO vale muito a pena jogar. Espero que a capcom veja a importância deste jogo pra franquia e que façam um remake!
