I'm curious, how do people feel about these remakes replacing the old games? I for example have only played RE 1 HD Remake and RE 2 Remake and most likely will never play the originals. As someone who enjoyed the games but isn't in love with the series do you think this is ok? That these games are basically replacing the old ones?
I don't see them as replacing the originals, although I guess in a sense they are. It would be one thing if they weren't as good as the originals, but they're arguably better. I've been a Resident Evil fan since 1996, I thought the original was better than Resident Evil 2 (which was an unpopular opinion at the time), but right now, if you ask me the best game in the series that I've played so far? RE2 Remake. Don't even really have to think about it much.
As a fan of the series, they definitely don't replace them. In fact, I would say that's true in literally every piece of art that has a new iteration. It's just the next thing, not THE thing.
