(Played via Director's Cut v1; Chris; Gave up at the revisit to the mansion (screw Hunters in this game seriously))
Just play REmake or Deadly Silence. There's no reason to play any version of OG RE1 unless you're curious like me or something.
Not to say that this is bad (though I don't think it's great either), love the atmosphere and music and those cool little moments, like when you walk down a hallway, only to get jumpscared by the Cerberus dogs jumping through the windows as the panic music plays, or the CGI cutscenes of when you try to open the front door and when Hunters are introduced, but, again, there's no reason to play this over REmake or Deadly Silence. Both do what this game does better, plus the things you might miss out on you can find online.
Also don't be dumb like me and play Chris (at least on your first go).
