Lmao I actually used to like this game a decent bit when I was younger but after playing the other 3 games again and playing the campaign of this for the first time, I have to agree

This is such a letdown, most of the story is just flashbacks (tho the last two missions are pretty great) that have a ton of “Point A to B” bullshit with retro lancers (which makes 0 sense since they dont even get mentioned in 3) and some cool new weapons and actually beautiful visuals

The overrun multiplayer I actually think is the highlight of the game but jesus christ it’s such a drag when placed in campaign mode

And what’s worse is the next two are probably worse.

A flawed but fun game... regardless of how you put it: it's still a huge downgrade from 4

I see people say 4 is when they became full action and while yeah they changed a few stuff, I'd argue that it has a great balance of horror AND action meanwhile this has pieces of horror but a fuck ton of action that it felt like I was playing Black Ops more than Resident Evil (which is funny since that came out after this). There's literally segments where you have to take cover and shoot at zombies, I know 4 didn't have zombies but story wise it made since for the enemies to have weapons, meanwhile this is completely absurd

I'm mixed on the co-op stuff, on one hand it's kinda handy and has been helpful but on the other hand it gets really annoying to constantly baby the AI

The graphics are great for the time, the game-play can be pretty fun (even if the game is really short and uppercutting enemies can become hilarious), and the monsters you fight along the way are still badass

I hear 6 is more ridiculous than this and I'm honestly curious to see how, I hope it's just fun to play like this was
