Here’s where a lot of people started to drift away from the franchise… and I understand that…
But it’s still my absolute favorite game of the series, and I’ll tell you why!!:
While RE 2 was the first RE game I played, it was Nemesis the very first one I beat.
The switch to a more action oriented system wasn’t to everyone’s liking, but, it enhanced the experience to me.
Puzzles were everywhere just like in the previous 2 games, but now, it expanded on that initial level from RE 2 and built an entire experience around exploring the enormous, desolate, and destroyed, city of the dead, with an atmosphere that I kid you not, makes me anxious to this very day, and makes my guts curl as soon as I hear the desolate winds whistle through the city, as distant sounds of death and chaos help paint the gruesome and obscure scenarios that you come across in your zombie riddled journey.
And then… there’s Nemesis.
The stuff of nightmares I tell you, his single presence made my 8 year old ass panic like my literal life depended on it.
This game was simple, and, well, it’s not its fault, since it was originally going to be a spin off, but later changed into a main entry, however I think that, in that process, the game managed to create something extremely special for gamers just like me, who loved the dread and horror of solving puzzles around monster infested streets, while also going crazy with a powerful assault rifle, unloading round after round on the dangerous walking corpses plaguing Raccoon City.
It May not be the best to many, but, RE3 Nemesis, to me… you’re definitely one of the greatest Action-Survival Horror games of all times.
