Top Ten Things That Need To Be Improved In The Resident Evil Video Game Series

(Comedy)

Be More Unrealistic

The Resident Evil video game series needs to be more unrealistic. Players are often pushed too far to survive. In Resident Evil Outbreak, players are put inside a random location and must figure out what to do next. No hints or tips is given in the game which makes it very time consuming for players. Zombies are constantly attacking the players and killing them with three strikes or more. Players are given weapons but the zombies seem to have more fire power. Every resident evil game seemed to be pushed too far with the idea of survival. Resident Evil games should be more unrealistic by allowing the characters to have a more life. The developers should also give the players more bullets because in every Resident Evil game there is never enough bullets. The alternative knife, the knife that is available to use in almost every Resident Evil game is not reliable. The reason the knife is not reliable is because one strike from a knife will not kill a zombie or knock it down.

Weapon Customization

Weapon Customization is only available in some games. You can not change the colors or features of the weapons. Players in modern times want guns that can be customized completely. In Resident Evil 6, players are given guns with no options to cusitomize further. There is a special way to upgrade the fire power of the guns, but players want more customization. They want guns that are different colors. They want guns that have parts that can be changed. Players want to flash their guns and be unique with them. They want guns with a customizable scope, grip, and barrerl. They want guns that represent who they are as a person. The Resident Evil game developers should imporve on the amount of options given to players for customization. Also, the game developers should include a laser with different colors in each Resident Evil game. They included that one little customization in one of the Resident Evil games but it needs to be included in every Resident Evil game.

Costumes

The costumes given in each Resident Evil game needs to be improved. Each character needs to have a wide selection of costumes. The costumes given are very limited and some are idiotic. In Resident Evil 5, players are given two costumes for each playable character. For Chris, the second costume is a zebra man suit. For Sheva, the second costume is a club outfit. Now, the game developers could have made it possible to change the colors of the clothes and add clothes that is more appropiate to a zombie invasion. Sheva wearing a club outfit is not appropiate for a zombie invasion. They should have her wearing an army outfit with full body armor or a pair of jeans and long sleeve shirt. The game developers need to think about what people would actually wear during a zombie invasion. Gamers would appreciate the game more if the charaters were wearing clothes that people would wear in a real zombie invasion.

Head Shots

Head shots in the Resident Evil game series very disappointing. When gamers play the game for the first time, gamers expect the zombie to die with one one head shot. The developers decided to not include this feature and make the head shot more like a bobble head instead. In the Resident Evil movies, a person that shoots a zombie in the head will automatically kill the zombie. But, in the Resident Evil game series a player must shoot the zombie in the head multiple times before the zombie head explodes or fall down. In Resident Evil 4, the zombies can get shot in the head atleast three times before they finally die. Then some zombies grow new heads after the original head is blown up. The bosses in the Resident Evil game series should also be able to die from just one shot to the head. The fact that you can not kill a zombie with a head shot in most of the Resident Evil game series makes the game very annoying.

Boss Fights

The boss fights in Resident Evil game series are too hard. In Resident Evil 4, there is a boss in the game with a pair of giant scissor claws. One strike from the monster in the game called “it” and your body is torn in half. The boss can also take alot of damage and is probly the hardest boss in the entire game. The game developers need to make the boss fights less difficult. In Resident Evil 5, there is a chainsaw guy that can kill you with one strike. He also seems to take a infite number of hits to his body. His only weakness is a small spot where his eye is located. It is very hard to shoot him because he moves fast and he doesn’t react when you shoot him. The game developers need to stop making the bosses in the Resident Evil game series seem invincible.

Story Line

The story line in the Resident Evil game series seem fine at first. Sadly, the storyline does not really make sense. In Resident Evil 6, the storyline is kill all the zombies and save people who are already dead. In the chapter with Leon, Leon goes to a city to find shelter and runs into a group of people. The people are stuck in a bar and Leon has to save them from the zombies. He saves the people from the zombies and then escapes the city. Then, Leon and a group of people get into a car accident. The car accident kills all the people that Leon saved. This incident makes you think that your not really saving anyone in this game are you. Are you just killing zombies and running for your life? The storyling of Resident Evil makes no sense. They send you in the city to save people and thern the people you save will end up dying. The storyline in the Resident Evil Game series needs to be fixed to give players a reason to keep playing the game or keep buying the game.

Reload Time

The reload time in the Resident Evil game series needs ti really be improved. This game is suppose to be a game not a real world survivor movie. In Resident Evil 4, it takes atleast five seconds to reload almost every weapon in the game. You can pay for a faster reload time but that is pretty much ridiculous. You would die by the time you reloaded that sniper rifle. That bolt action sniper rifle in the Resident Evil 4 game that should not have been in the game. It takes too long to load that rifle. You also have to cock the rifle after each shot. The games need an almost instant reload time that way you won’t have to think about reloading. Resident Evil is a video game but it does not play like a video game. Resident Evil game developers should make the game reload faster than it’s allowed.

The Locations

The locations in the Resident Evil game are very simular. The game developers need to make the locations of each game different. They always put the characters in buildings that look like buildings in other games. Each building should be different for each video game. Resident Evil Veronica X and Resident Evil seem like the same game. There is a house that looks almost exactly the same in both Resident Evil games. Players are not bewing introduced to new enviornments, It seems like the game is repeating itself. Players want to be surprised and experience something new in a video game. They do not want to see the same building in every game. The game developers made the locations of the game different in some ways but players might have felt like they seen the place before. If game developers do not change the view of the game, gamers might stop playing the resident evil game.

Online Play

Playing Resident Evil online is not as entertaining as it should be. In Resident Evil 6,. Players have the option to be a zombie and attack other players, but players are not given a wide range of zombies to choose from. The zombies players are given move slow and can only attack slowly. This is very fustrating to players who want to tear their opponents appart with deadly bite. Some players want to play as the boss zombies. The game developers should make more zombie choices available. Also, players canot attack eachother online. Players need to know how good they are in the game. The game only allows players to shoot at other zombies. There is no point in shooting other zombies online when you can do it offline. In Resident Evil 6, players are given a time limit which is not fair. Players being timed in the game makes the online function not fair. Players should continue playing online until health reaches zero.

The Characters  

The characters in the Resident Evil video game series need morebackground information. Once you play the Resident Evil game series for a couple years you start to wonder who the characters are. The game developers do not seem to give out too much information on who each character really is. The characters never seem to talk about their past. The characters seem like ghosts in a sense because you never know who they are. The game developers should add more cutscenes to the games in order for players to learn who each character for the game is. If the players know who the characters are, the players become more interested in the game. They also become more connected with the game and start to play the game more. When you do not include background information for the characters in each Resident Evil game, it makes it seem like you are playing with a ghost. You are playing with somebody who does not have anything important to do with the game. They are just somebody that you play the game with.
