Also ı want to express more things regarding remake.
I just wished barry's " THIS! " was an unlockable weapon for both characters. It's really absurd that ı have to sacrifice him to lisa just to get his gun and obtain his file. As for his family photo; ı wished barry could show that to jill temporarily during the story so that he can know her opinion on it. One of the endings has her commenting on this but it's not the best ending where everyone survives. I believe you have to get the ending where chris stays in jail. I have to sacrifice chris just to know this for a weird reason. I would have liked to play as barry during jill's story too since you can play as rebecca during chris' story depending on how you play.
I mean re0 has a freaking magnum revolver as an unlockable which is really powerful, especially against living things. You can even unlock infinite ammo for all weapons as well. Remake doesnt have that. It doesnt even have 4 shot rocket launcher as an unlockable infinite weapon, it's a different weapon instead. For some reason, the zombies also dont burn when you fire that thing at them and yet they burn to jill's grenade launcher loaded with flame rounds if they are killed by them.
I also want to say another thing. I didnt beat the game with both characters in the same save file. Cause it unlocks one dangerous zombie mode which cant be disabled.
Re wiki also says this:
" In the modern HD remasters, this feature is unlocked after beating both Chris and Jill's games on Normal or Hard, while for the GCN and Wii versions the player had to beat Chris and Jill with "Once Again..." (thereby beating the game four times). "
Apparently the unlocking method for it is much better in og versions compared to remaster. Personally ı dont like that mode at all. It's just obnoxious.
Remake is still very faithful to re1 but in some aspects; that " faithfulness " smells more like a laziness rather than a creativity. I mean mikami didnt think about hiring another writer after iwao left the company. That pretty much tells me everything ı need to know about the game.
I have no idea how people can consider remake as the best re game in the series. I dont even see anyone mentioning these things.
