I loved the co-op. Solving puzzles with friends, the facing the mad chainsaw welding zombies. But I know apart from the action and boulder punching issues, why I think, and this is just my thought and in no way maybe the real reason, Capcom would not make a remake of 5 is because of the African setting, which as a South African I loved, but because mostly you are a white character mostly shooting mindless and violent black zombies. Even if it is fiction, the main villain was a white guy it doesn't matter, I remember there was a small murmur regarding this issue back then, now in the 2020s with people much more vocal regarding social issues, I do not think Capcom would open themselves to scrutiny. The thing for me is that game was made during that time, just like how certain Disney or Looney Toons were made during a certain time, but cannot be made in today's environment
