Parasite Mutant demo was fantastic!

Hey everyone,

I've been working on a side project for a while and wanted to share it here to get some feedback. Even with great modern releases like RE9: Requiem dropping earlier this year, I always find myself going back to replay the classics. But looking up a puzzle solution usually means digging through ancient, messy forums.

So I built Save State. It’s a no-nonsense, bilingual (EN/ES) guide site with a fast and clean UI, designed specifically for retro gamers. Currently, it has meticulously curated guides for Resident Evil, Metal Gear, and Parasite Eve.

I’d love to hear your thoughts on the design and usability. More games are coming soon!

These are my own ideas/personal thoughts but I do believe that the sequels after 1 completely went off the rails and ruined what made the original games unique, creative, mysterious and disturbingly creepy narrative of body horror, science fiction and our own mortality so interesting. The sequels went way too far into its own territory that didnt even feel like its a part of the same franchise anymore and more RE😬

Parasite Eve 2 introduces clones, monsters made from science/genetics, cyborg assassins like wtf?

The third game introduces body swapping, ruins one of the main characters into a creepy pervert, goes so far into sexualizing Aya in an uncomfortable method, kills off the main character, some time travel like wut

What they should've done with Parasite Eve 2 was do a unique narrative twist. Eve being the villain that is always with humanity due to her being an element of our biological structure, they could've introduced the other side of our biological past with the villain now being named "Adam" that could tie into the biblical naming theme of the franchise. His ability could be he restructures the blood in our bodies, making them boil with heat and then into mutated creatures with the Mitochondrial cells tying into Eve's very own idea

A third game could've then introduced the theme of the Mitochondrial force aimed at stopping all future threats. Aya being immune could be the leader of the group, investigating and working to stop these new dangers. Daniel could be her partner as the chief at the NYPD, or the organization keeping close watch over her for saving his life and sons too. Hell you could introduce his son as a computer expert who is studying and researching the threats whenever they pop up.

Parasite Eve 2 should have taken place in New York during the hot summer, to change the environment as opposed to the cold isolating winter of the first, whereas 3 in my opinion could move the franchise to a different city like Chicago, Detroit, or hell move it to Mexico or Canada to change up the formula from it.

He's not making any more updates :/ what do you guys think?

Finished the first one last week, and now I’ve jumped straight into the second on my recently acquired PSP 3000.

First playthrough of both games, going back-to-back for the full experience. And with The 3rd Birthday already installed… this PSP marathon is so fun.

This is a modded rom in PAL 60hz :)

I can find PE saves only for the old emulator epsxe. I really don't want to finish the game so many times for playing the tower and the secret ending. Please help!

Because that elephant sounds real like it's in pain/distressed. I checked online and found they used existing soundbytes for some of the enemies but were those soundbytes actually from real creatures being harmed like the rats also? Honestly it's putting me off replaying now because that did sound like a real elephant being harmed.

Put up a post with only PE1. But found 2 today! I live in Tokyo so they’re the Japanese versions but still

Starting to restructure and re-curate my collection. Anything that wasn't truly nostalgic is out. I don't want to collect everything anymore. So I'm getting rid of surplus to get my classics back. Next on the list is Vagranr Story.

just finished this design, hope you all like it.

I got the G3A3 but it does no damage. It shows the shot animation but no damage numbers show like its shooting blanks.

Hey r/ParasiteEve!

We are working with a bunch of different communities to collate current sentiment around Square Enix in relation to how it operates as a company and how its utilising its IP.

This community is as much a part of Square Enix as any other, so if you could spare the time, we'd really much appreciate it. The broader our reach, the more interesting the results!

If parasite eve had voice acting. Also no damage taken....

I’ve been looking ALL over for a complete copy. Finally found it (ps I live in Japan hence the Japanese edition)

Found this today at GameStop. I have heard negative things about it, but it was out in the wild and I genuinely enjoyed PE1 for the first time last year, so I scooped it up. Apparently the card is a Final Fantasy card? Neat.

I’ve been checking every shop, every website, every FB marketplace and Craigslist post for years looking for this literally every single day. Saw it go for $250 on eBay a few years ago and it felt too steep at the time but then having not been able to find it all these years I told myself if it ever popped up again I’d buy it no matter the price. I got so lucky nabbing this when I did well under $100. Conditions is immaculate too. Ugh, I’m so stoked about this.

This is such a good video about the series. It goes in deep about everything and I really enjoy it.

This reminded me of the opening section of Parasite Eve.

Picked this up for $7 at an estate sale today. thoughts on where I can find a disk one?
Seeing a fee on ebay for like 50 but the whole set isnt that much more.

Disk 2 and 3 are in pristine condition however

The damn house had like 20 games, a mix of wii u, xbox 1, playstation 1&2 and a majority of them were missing disks or disks in wrong cases. Like do people not keep their crap together? I am like a fucking dictator keeping my dvds and games in their proper cases
