Resident Evil 2 Review Thread
- Thread starter Dusk Golem
- Start date
Seems to be a theme going on here with Japanese made games, which makes sense. We just had it with ace combat.
As expected salty YT comments about it not being high enough.
I can't tell if this is sarcasm or not but you're welcome either way
Yakuza Kiwami 2 and SOTC weren't eligible for the main category this past year because they were remakes :(
So glad to be proven wrong, I wanted it to be high but guessed low.
Already pre-ordered last week so I'm glad I feel a bit validated in that choice.

You might want to re-read that with the context of the previous paragraph...
Reviewers, answer me this:
How is the cutscene showing Hunk's team being wiped out handled?
It was a great moment in RE2, flubbed in Darkside Chronicles, and the snippets we've seen from RE2make look very... unstylized. Like found footage with no music or cinematography.

Resident Evil 2 is practically a brand new game. SotC is a remake. I don't think they're the same and RE2 should definitely count.
Sarcasm? Why? lol
I'm just glad I'm knowing this before playing so I won't expect these enemies anymore, it's disapointing now which is better than when I'm actually playing the game.
On second thought, it will prob take me a few hours longer. Is RE2 really that much shorter than RE1? The Remake took me 13 hours.
Usually took around that time in the original two between both campaigns. So all together, 12-15 hours.
Seems to be a bit longer than the original. RE2 I recall is able to be completed in just a few hours?
I'm honestly surprised that Huber didn't give it a 10. I bet it was hard for him to keep it professional. Can't wait until Friday.
Gotcha, yeah, I'm still excited as hell to play it since RE2 was by far my favorite of the series. More than likely, I'll get used to it.
I plan on taking my time but were people expecting this to be significantly longer than the original?
Don't you dare say "as bad as Alien Isolation" as if that game wasn't fantastic with what it did!
Or do you mean it doesn't do it as much as Alien Isolation?
I don't care about length as long as the game is very replayable.
Based on the demo I know you can skip almost all cinematics, so that's already a big plus for replay value.

Long horror games tend to lose their steam, so I'm not too arsed
My review:
https://psxbrasil.com.br/analises/analise-resident-evil-2/ - 98%
Verdict:
Resident Evil 2 is an excellent game. The Survival Horror that fans wanted so much is here, the technical aspect is impressive and the various campaigns (even if they have very similar elements) increase the lifespan considerably. Although the remake is not exactly identical to the original, the essence of the 1998 game remains present. Resident Evil 2 is a must-have title in your collection.

A mistake :)
That's my most anticipated game of the year with Gears 5.
This was discussed pre-release, but no. There are no major decisions that carry between the scenarios. Both characters expand their inventory in their own campaigns by finding Side Packs, but nothing like that. Every character has their own weapon sets this time around.
As Dusk Golem said in another thread, think they planned to do this but decided to just go with the streamlined approach. I honestly prefer it.
Mm-hm. It's Leon and Claire. You can choose which one to play first but whichever one you choose first, the second one will be much harder. So the first playthrough might be 6 hours or so but the second playthrough will be much longer due to difficulty.
