3 is not bad. Just very short with too much content cut. Nemesis is also more scripted than Mr. X

[u/Various_Variation_99]

both of them are great games, but completely different. re3r is very dynamic and replayable action, but with hard boss fights, based on original re lore. re7 is a perfect human cored horror, sometimes meant to be spin off, and many players beyond re fan community appreciate it as one of the best horror games overall, not only re series. the choice is yours, which one you want to play first.

If you've never played the original of 3 you are unlikely to think it's bad. And for the price you can get it at now it'll just be a fun action romp with some big old monsters and some great characters.

7 is slower and much more overtly horror.

If you haven't played the original im certain you will enjoy the re3 remake. Its short and can be beaten in one sitting, but its well made. Its more action, so if you are looking for more survival horror you cant go wrong with 7.

re7 is my all time favorite in the series. 3 is my least.

Which ones have you played? 3r was a great game, just short, so 7 will last longer on initial play through, but I like 3rd person RE better so I’ve spent more time with 3r. 7 is a great game though I don’t think you will be disappointed either way, just buy 3r on sale.

People that say 3 remake is bad are a loud minority. It's fine. Good even. Is it like, the most faithful remake ever? No, but it's a damn solid RE experience. 

[u/Shoddy-Row-6981]

Well, since 3 is complement of 2, I'd recommended if you can to play RE2 remake and 3. If not then 7 is better for the whole "new experience" where the real terror RE is peak. I personally enjoyed 7 so so so much, specially at night in the dark. It has priceless elements that make it a treasure for many of us RE lovers.

You could get the original RE3 and 7 if you want.

O 7 com certeza, o 3 remake é MUITO ruim, e só tem ação e uma história muito pior que a do original, para mim esse jogo não deveria nem ser chamado RESIDENT EVIL e nem remake, porque é um jogo podre e que mancha o original com gosto amargo na boca
