"Capcom has been on a hot streak for a while, if you ignore the whole . You can open up a page on the company's website that has every game it's released, and you'll find mostly wall-to-wall bangers for the past several years."
"In 2005, Resident Evil 4 revolutionized the survival horror series in what is still widely considered one of the best games of all time, and then...well, the series stumbled a little, and then fell into a dumpster that went rolling down a hill until it collided with a truck."
"Rather than learning lessons from Resident Evil 5, Capcom tripled down on the series' issues in 2012 with Resident Evil 6, which is often cited as one of the lowest points in the franchise, abandoning all sense of distinct horror atmosphere in favor of pressing the gas on generic cooperative action."
Capcom has experienced a remarkable turnaround, emerging as a leading game developer with successful titles such as Pragmata and Resident Evil Requiem. The company's recent releases have garnered critical acclaim, showcasing a consistent quality in their games. This resurgence is particularly notable considering the company's struggles a decade ago, when it faced significant criticism. The evolution of the Resident Evil series exemplifies this trajectory, moving from the revolutionary Resident Evil 4 to the missteps of Resident Evil 5 and 6, which faced backlash for their departure from horror elements.
