The offline backdrops looks more amazing than I remembered, can't wait. I wonder if Capcom is using higher quality models in game ...possibly the cutscene models?
Resident Evil 1 Remake Remastered
- Thread starter Nesh
- Start date
That is some damn fine upscaling if that is what they are doing, I donno if they have access to the higher quality artwork and are rerendering them for this remaster.
I always thought/believed major developers for the most part retained their original assets across generations ...not just for future reference, but for any legal reasons that might occur (popup).

I have always thought most devs keep the original assets also.
If they dont then they should. Most games last gen created high poly character models and baked the detail into normal maps for the in game low poly models. I would hope they dontthrow those high poly models away.

They're upscaled. You can see compression artifacts in many shots.
Also, a GAF member made his own upscaling tests and came pretty close to Capcom's results (without the new changes of course):

There's hope for the PC version.

Why would the upscaling be better on PC?

Since the backgrounds are only upscaled and the community can theoretically upscale them on its own with the same level of quality (as shown by the GAF poster), we can have all the benefits of the remaster while at the same time preserving the original game's aesthetics: no orange lightning, no extreme bloom, properly saturated colors, no lazy color grading...
Or even a different direction, the community could replace the backgrounds by redoing them all from scratch and render them natively at high resolutions. That would obviously require far more effort but it's doable in principle.

God I forgot how corny the voiceovers were (are)... still picking it up though.

RE1 is there in the top 5 games ever perhaps. I had the original on PC, which I bought at launch and played on a monster 3D.http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2...e-release-on-pc-ps3-ps4-xbox-360-and-xbox-one
Great news
As of currently, I also have RE1 Remake and RE0 Remake for the PC, which are great, but they still keep the classic format of pre-rendered background and 3D characters, but I rather prefer if they make a Re remake of both, 'cos new generations would literally hallucinate with the series and it would bring new fans to it.
Also, Dolby Atmos support... ufffff, would be a dream come true. Thanks to Dolby Atmos, the atmosphere of RE2 Remake was close to perfection.
not exactly this remaster, but GoG has published the original Resident Evil game -I still have the CD of the original game at home for the PC-, Resident Evil 2 and Resident Evil 3 in a new bundle. You can get the 3 games for 24,99€.

The legacy of the 2002 remake would be destroyed if Capcom remade it. Ya reckon it would be remotely faithful? No. Probably not.
Capcom always cuts content. I mean, you cannot expect much from them. They didn't even add Barry into the RE3 remake ending, and there's a ton of other stuff they never bothered to do right.

I get the sentiment, but I don't think so. REmake will always be the standard to meet when remaking a game, regardless of whether they do it again or not. I mean, lets face it... it's going to happen at some point. There are new audiences which only started playing Resident Evil with the modern remakes, and I'm sure Capcom sees that. REmake is an incredible game for people who are fans of classic RE.. but for modern audiences there are issues with controls, with static camera angles, with other quality of life features missing that they are used to. Those games will always remain, they aren't going anywhere, so I think there's room for a new adaptation of RE1. I am slightly biased though as it's one of my favorite games of all time and they could probably remake it every generation and I'd buy it up lol.The legacy of the 2002 remake would be destroyed if Capcom remade it.

Also, RE3R was done by a different team within Capcom. Yes, they cut a lot of content, but that's really only something fans of the classic games would realize. RE2 and RE4 remakes were both incredible, and showed that Capcom can indeed bring these games forward and modernize them in an excellent way without much compromise and satisfy both old and new fans alike.
