A new Resident Evil game could be in the works...

Let's just wait until September, but I'd happily settle for a third Revelations game.

Same. Everyone else is saying R3make, but i'd definitely prefer Revelations 3.

Yeah. I'm not terribly bothered about remakes, especially since they butchered so much content in the latest one.

I'm the opposite. Remakes of RE3 and potentially CV are all I care about. Beyond that, I've simply moved on from the series. I played RE7 at the insistence of my GF and it did absolutely nothing for me.

Apart from all the news about a goose mod and other characters, I think this year hasn't been overly engaging for RE news.

Is this real? I still haven't move on to the newest one which is Resident Evil 7

I moved on from it quick because it did absolutely nothing for me. My now-ex girlfriend (meaning I'm single now, BTW *wink wink, nudge nudge, poke poke*) insisted I play it because it was allegedly such a great game, but I played it for a few hours and wasn't the least bit engaged or impressed.

The only RE-related announcements that would excite me are remakes of RE3 and CVX.

At this rate, I don't know whether to keep supporting the series or go with Naughty Dog full-time. I guess I'm a Capcom guy to the end, but I wish they did better games than they're doing. I'm struggling to care much about the story anymore. It seems like they just like to throw in random dumb shit now, like with Chris being involved with Umbrella, and they're supposedly good now. Like, that's just wonderful writing. Not to mention, it's like he aged backwards by 20 years or more!

If it's not something you enjoy anymore, no reason to stick with it. You don't owe Capcom anything, after all.

No, the thought of abandoning the series as a whole disheartens the shit out of me. But I've been a fan for 20 years, and I've seen it rock on the ocean's waves a lot over the past few decades. Part of me is so darn attached to its lore, that I want to continue supporting it. But it's like all the big horror franchises that got screwed up. When they remove what made it so appealing to begin with, two things: People either leave it, or stick with it anyway.

Some top series that got messed up.

Alien.
A Nightmare on Elm Street.
The Terminator.
Saw.

I cannot be bothered listing tons of different series, but it's literally like anything with 5 or more sequels.

If they can keep to the formula that made the series successful, then fans won't abandon what they perceive as a sinking ship. The trouble is, that RE4 was a major soft reboot of sorts, that attracted a legion of new fans. So they need a game that pleases the "old" fans, and the 2005-present day fans too, and sometimes I have to question if that really makes sense.
