Gamervision says, ""Resident Evil 5: Lost in Nightmares," the last bit of downloadable content to hit Capcom's Resident Evil 5, wasn't bad, but it certainly was a few hundred feet from good. There simply wasn't enough action, and the gameplay felt much more similar to the original fixed-camera Resident Evil titles than it did the more recent releases. It followed Jill Valentine and Chris Redfield in a prequel of sorts, filling in some gaps left intentionally empty in the original game. For that reason, it was definitely worth playing for any fans of the title, but beyond that, it was hard to recommend the download, even at the $5 price point. Now, with their second batch of downloadable content in "Desperate Escape," Capcom is taking a much different approach. If "Lost in Nightmares" was the quintessential early Resident Evil title, than "Desperate Escape" moves the needle to the opposite side of the spectrum, with the white-knuckle action that defined the later games in the series.

Resident Evil 5 launched 15 years ago today - and it continues to stand as a stepping stone from the good to the bad.
One of my favourites because of the co-op. Then Resi 6 arrived and the series nosedived further.
I enjoyed the game co-oping with a friend I know the game in solo the AI can be an idiot but RE5 is way better then RE6. I played RE6 with a friend if it wasn't cheap when I got I would have avoided RE6.
5 was excellent, still play Mercs with my brother.
I would love a fully remastered RE:5, with some added, reworked content. The DLC for 5 was also excellent.
6 was awful.
I never understood why the game was misunderstood. It was a fantastic game at launch and is still fun today to play. It’s as action packed as Resident Evil 4 was, yet that’s regarded a masterpiece 🤷♂️
it was "misunderstood" because they introduced co-op into the franchise at a time when people loved to have fake rage about co-op. like, you could play the game as a solo experience, but people chose to have their bandwagon rage because it was cool at the time lol

An exploration of whether RE5 is truly the most logical next step for a remake, or whether there are others in line who deserve their day in the sun.
Remake of Resident evil outbreak as well as file 2. Same gameplay as the recent remakes. Choose what ever character you want to play as. With online co op.
Nope.
Rather remake other past Capcom & non-mainline RE games ... IF they have to continue churning out Remakes.
I'd rather want a new 3rd person RE spin-off
