Resident Evil Was Originally Meant to Be a First Person Shooter
I know it’s hard to imagine the Resident Evil series being a first person shooter, but you can’t really blame them for considering that, after all they were trying to compete with the likes of Doom and Golden eye. The developers at Capcom didn’t really think that the creators of Doom and other horror games were doing a good job in doing justice to the genre. They redid the game to be more like Alone in the Dark, and tried to create more of an adventure game than a shooter, while still keeping plenty of enemies to kill. It was this bizarre combination of elements that created the survival horror genre.
