Resident Evil is undoubtedly one of the most popular series by Capcom. Though the developer company has several other gaming series that have brought it fame, for survival-horror lovers, Resident Evil defines Capcom. Over the years, this series has provided players with lots of thrilling journeys, and again, Capcom is preparing something exciting for players.

Getting dedicated fans is a blessing, but not always they react according to expectations. The Resident Evil OG trilogy has been one of the most discussed issues in the community for a few days, and finally, when the confirmation came, players started reacting in a different way than expected. Well, their points are valid and shouldn’t be ignored, though.

Fans Reacted Pretty Surprisingly About the Release of the Resident Evil OG Trilogy

Resident Evil OG trilogy didn’t receive what Capcom and GOG initially expected.

Hardcore Resident Evil fans, who have started playing the games in the middle of the series, are going to get a golden opportunity to experience the beginning of the saga even if they don’t have a PlayStation One. This is especially true for PC players. The PC versions were famous for the uncensored content, but because of the physical copies, they succumbed to the flow of time. 

However, recently, Good Old Games, a.k.a. GOG, has come up with a new announcement for PC players. GOG has been an online digital distribution retailer for PC games for a long time, and it has officially announced that it’s collaborating with Capcom to bring the PlayStation One versions of the original Resident Evil trilogy to PC.

This news should be something exciting for PC players, but the reaction is something different, as some players consider it pointless and give friendly reminders to others.

On the other hand, Steam players got angry about it not coming on Steam.

Some of them are even asking for the trilogy to be released on Steam Deck. 

Even console players are finding it useless if it’s not coming on modern consoles.

Even after all these, a significant number of players are curious about the OG trilogy and willing to know what this game will bring.

GOG’s Resident Evil OG Trilogy Is Going to Be Special for Fans, Even Without Coming on Steam

The Resident Evil trilogy will bring players back to the nostalgia of stepping into the creepy in-game world full of terrible monsters.

The original version of the Resident Evil trilogy was released on PC during the early 2000s. However, that version is not compatible with modern PCs. Therefore, the initiative by GOG should be appreciated for bringing the game to modern PCs by making it compatible with Windows 10 and 11.

Of course, the game controls and gameplay mechanics will go through lots of changes. The main stories are still intact, but the game will feature some changes that make it playable on modern devices, which include new rendering options, improved cutscene timing, smooth task switching, and an error-free game video player. 

Apart from these, the scary vibe, haunting atmosphere, terrible monsters, and thrilling journey will be the same. Players can dive into the mysterious and formidable in-game world where danger awaits at every step, and your skills and inventory management will decide whether you survive or not. Once again, ammo and healing items become the keys to reaching the climax. 

For now, the announcement has been made, and the game can be purchased from the GOG store for $9.99. You can jump into the nostalgia, but when you get some time, don’t forget to get other news from the gaming world, like the controversy Call of Duty created with its upcoming playlist modifier. Fans have been mocking it brutally for that.
