Resident Evil creator Shinji Mikami explains why the series shifted its focus from horror to action

Hmm a very interesting read. I might as well wait for Evil Within.

Remember reading this when it was first published(think on Destructoid?) And realizing REmake had flopped...how can something that incredible flop but then again we are talking about crapcom here...has to have explosions, over sexulized character designs and more explosions nowadays...

I am pretty excited on the upcoming The Evil Within game. I wonder what's the storyline, I just hate the fact that Shinji is the maker, and producer of Claire Redfield, and now he's gone. I just keep hoping Capcom didn't eliminate her just like that.

Think its more Like him Hideki Kamiya and Noboru Sugimura who created Claire and sadly yes as you said all of them left Capcom and poor Sugimura passed away a while ago...Claire is sadly becoming more like Barry and Rebecca everyday and the only people keeping these characters alive, are the real fans who have been with the series since the start.

Just a shame REmake flopped...in Crapcom's eyes anyways...

What, are you serious Noboru just died? ;___; It's just so unfair. I wonder what's happening to Claire. I just really hope Capcom don't throw her like a garbage. I just hate the rumors stated that Claire is already done in the series.

The reason it flopped wasn't because of Capcom. The reason is within the market. If people didn't buy it, then the company is hardly to blame, especially if the game was a good one. What, are you proposing Capcom drove down the market for their own game? If it didn't sell well enough, that's that.

I'm one of the better peoples who bought the damn thing.

Shes not completely gone. She's been in RE: Degeneration and mentioned in RE6 quite a few times via Sherry and Chris and in the letters and she was in RE: The Mercenaries, RE: Opereation Raccoon City and RE: Dark-side Chronicles. That's something, so she hasn't been forgotten. They just haven't used her for main titles since RE: CV. I will always believe she should have been in RE6. It's like "HELLO" it was the best timing for her return....
Chris, Leon and Sherry are in the game, I mean come on!
I like Helena, but Claire should have been Leon's partner.
I like RE6 over-all. But, the whole "No Claire" was a HUGE fail in my opinion.

Claire being not part of Resident Evil 6 is a huge fail, it's a mistake. I mean most of the fans are flippin out because of her not appearing in 6. But I guess Capcom have different plans for her. We all knew that she's mention in 6 and I am thankful for that cause atleast she isn't forgotten. I can't wait for her own main series again.

Honestly, I was glad she didn't make an appearance. There were too many characters already saturating the game. It turned a clusterfuck of a script into little shreds someone was trying to put the pieces back together. I also don't like the fact that Chris and Leon seemed like completely different characters, nothing but former shells of who they were in previous games.

Let's look at Leon for example: he's more than familiar with zombies, why would he try to reason with one? The fact he also didn't know who Helena was kind of irked me as well, but it isn't really important. More like a nitpick, but still it bothered me that he doesn't know the agents working closely with the President. I mean, closely enough to infect him with a deadly virus.

Now let's look at Chris: somehow has his own squad, despite the fact that this information wasn't present in the last two canon Resident Evil's and barely ever mentioning anything apart of his past except Claire. Wasn't the entire reason Chris was out in Africa to rescue Jill? What happened to Jill? What happened?! You just can't do that.

This makes me conclude that the characters could have been any joe shmoes, making them Leon and Chris was merely fan service, and if they were to include Claire into the mess it would only make things worse.

Plus, if Claire was playable in story mode, someone somewhere is going to complain about her being able to do kickflips and backflips. I'm sure Claire could have picked some stuff up between Viral Campaign and 6.

You need to realize that you're not the majority of the market. I have REmake myself, and I enjoy it. But that doesn't mean everyone will. Businesses go for the majority of the market because that's one of the best ways to guarantee profits.

I agree with the Leon part, but Chris was Chris. Who knows what happened to Jill. She's a big girl and was in the last game. She doesn't have to be part of Chris's story for the rest of his life. And Chris, since RE 1 has lost his friends, his life at the hands of bioterrorism. He values the lives of his comrades because of all those he lost. That's why it mentions in the game that he treats his team like family (in the files), leading to the fact that Chris had been with those men for years. It makes sense, just because a character has been in past games, doesn't mean we have to bring back every single aspect of his past life ''LOOK THIS IS CHRIS REMEMBER?''. I think it was good he had his ''own'' game, in that regard (his campaign).

Chris' campaign was easily the campaign I felt more emotion for. Leon was the least most important character in the story. He was there just to be there. I wonder why they called Leon the "Main Main character"

Agree Chris made RE 6 to be great, none of RE games were so emotional and deep as was Chris' campaign. As for Leon he was there simply to commercialize the game, since he has a huge fan base, but guess devs should have worked more on his story and not to just stick him in the game to sell more copies. Only one small scene where paths of Chris and Leon are crossed, made the entire gaming world to go crazy and eventually that did work since RE 6 had sold over 4.2 million copies (only on consoles). Im very much sure that in the next installment of the game Leon and Chris will be partners, cs simply that will drive fans nuts, doubt that any other old character coming back or making sort of a femme fatale team with Jill and Claire can come close to success of it, I just really hope that if the decide to do so the story will be worked out as well to the very much of it smallest details and it wont happen just for making more money.

I didn't feel any of Chris' character come out at all in Resident Evil 6. Resident Evil 5 sort of established how I saw Chris and in Resident Evil 6 he was a different character with a different story. It may as well have been someone else.

Also, I hope that Leon and Chris don't appear in the next game. We've had enough of those two.

Exactly. It was like a huge piece of RE6 was missing with Claire not being in it. It was the perfect opportunity for her return.
Even if they have better plans for her it's still a fail that she was missing in RE6.... at least they didn't totally forget her and mentioned a few times. But like I said, even though I like Helena, that part in the story should have been Claire's...
she though Simmons was up to something. It would have made sense. She was connection with Sherry, Leon and obviously Chris.

Fingers-crossed that she returns to the series again soon.

Again, I honestly don't think it was her best opportunity to return. If she took Helena's part Leon would have some established history with her. It was a both stupid that Leon didn't know who she was, but at the same time it served a purpose in the story. It kept Leon guessing, she just told him to trust her and he really had no choice. If it were Claire, she wouldn't have even agreed to Simmon's demands because of several things: he has no leverage over her, she's emotionally stronger than Helena, her history with Leon would have taken up too much or too little of the time in the story.

Agreed, my friend.

Here's the characters I want to see appear in RE7:

• Jake (Because Ada's ending sort of confirmed it)
  
• Steve (Because Wesker - even though he's dead - said he could come back. Would be a nice twist)
  
• Claire (Because she hasn't been in a game for about 5 years now; would be a good partner for Steve)
  
• Rebecca (Same reason as Claire; also would be a good partner for Jake)
  
• HUNK (In a secret mission campaign; He's a badass)
  
• Barry (So PWN can die a happy man)
  

That just seems like too big of a list of characters. I'd rather just see Jake and Claire. That's it. They can delve into other characters in other games.

Cut out Rebbeca and Barry then. Jake, Claire, Steve, and HUNK. Four characters for the entire game.

• Barry (So PWN can die a happy man)
  

Well in that case then Chris' and Jakes meeting (in the end of the Chris' story) also confirms that if jake will be there so will be Chris, since he has to give some answers to Jake and devs can base entire story on that and even partner Chris and Jake (i think thats the reason for Piers' death, cs devs emptied partners spot for Jake) there must be something shown of what happens between them 2 after RE 6 and the way I see it that Chris will turn into a father Jake never had. Honestly though being a Chris fan and wanting him to be in the next game, i want to see him more in CGI than in game, but im like almost 100% sure that both Leon and Chris will be in the next game(nerdlingers will go nuts without em). As 4 Burnside, im not much of a fan of that character so i really wouldn't care if he comes back or not, but definitely wont be surprised, cs RE devs have an experience in bringing people back to life (the same way bout Rebecca, cs after playing Remake ive concluded that she's even more pain in the ass than Sheva in RE5). Also sure that Clair will be back and not only PWNRX but millions of fans including myself would be sky high if Burton comes back even more so, i want him to be in both CGI and game and when it comes to badassness Barry is second to no one, plus i really dont like Hunk. I dont know why but i get the feeling that Jill will skip the next one as well.

so my list would go: Chris, Burton, Clair and Jake. And if it comes to resurrection then of course from bad guys Krauser, Wesker and good ones either Sera or Piers.

Is it really THAT hard to have that "e" in Claire? Why not just leave every last letter of every word out if that really saves you that much time.

A lot of characters can be in the game through cutscenes, documentation, or as support in-game. Other than that, thanks AWDCP. (Who is just another A We Don't Care Production, because we just don't care.)

Really? Clair is an actual name?

Upon a quick search online, it does seem to be the case. Huh. You learn something every day.

My best explanation for his character change from 5 to 6 is that in 5, we had a pessimistic but determined Chris. At the end of 5, he's shifting towards the optimistic side hence his final quote in the game. Ch 2 of 6 has him continuing that thought from the end of 5 until his team is killed. From the looks of it, he still has that pessimistic mindset, but it's not as high as it was in the beginning of 6. If I remember, one of the files stated that another reason he stayed with the B.S.A.A was because Bio-terrorism won't stop anytime soon. And that there were more and more new recruits (redshirts) that need his guidance.

@Vandal, True but if Claire would have been in the game instead of Helena, the story would be
a bit different in general. Regradless, In my opinion Claire should have been in the game.

@AWDCP

My dream RE game, be RE7 or RE20 is

Chris/Sherry,
Carlos/Jill,
Leon/Claire,
Billy/Rebecca,

the villain should be Alex Wesker.

Jake should just die.  I really, really don't like him or Ada for that matter. lol
