Bio
I'm only now getting back into gaming after movies took over my life. Will not rate games unless I have completed them or have spent enough time to decide on a rating. Can probably geek out about Persona 5 or Final Fantasy at length. If an HD port is listed as a separate game, I'll provide a rating for the original game, unless it's a remake or a remaster with notable changes.

It feels good to play within the moment, but the disappointment of Resident Evil 3 can be felt when you realize how there's so little to offer in terms of how the story has been remade from one generation of gaming to another. But at a certain point, I can't help but feel as if my biggest disappointments to be felt with Resident Evil 3 just feel like it's so short to the point that playing through it ends up making you feel as if you're rushing through it rather than being encouraged to come back.

With Resident Evil 2 already being short as is, at least it felt like there was always something fun to come back to whenever you went to backtrack. I can't really say the same for this because the linearity ends up feeling so restrictive, and playing through it feels more like going through Resident Evil's greatest hits.

But it's fun seeing Jill Valentine in action again.

The perfect real-time strategy game in my eyes. As a kid, I remember that I've spent several hours trying to figure out new ways to get everything done in fewer days but it's so easy to play Pikmin 2 wanting to produce as much Pikmin as you can in order to make everything so much easier as you go in caves - but it's the way that you realize how well you know every colour and their own traits that makes the whole game so much fun to play through.

This recent run, I've played the whole game deathless, as I've attempted so many times over the years. Not my first time accomplishing the game as such, won't be the last. But I think that I'll only want to keep playing the game over and over again to see if I can achieve that even faster.

Boasts some of the best and most atmospheric first-person gameplay that I've ever seen, yet also some of the most underwhelming boss fights and frustratingly designed levels that we've seen in any Resident Evil video game. There's a lot to love especially in just how playing the game feels like; but all these good elements that this game boasts never really reach their full potential because the lack of challenge in most of these boss fights really takes away from the urgency in just about every other factor here.

I don't think I can talk about the ending without saying what hasn't already been said, but it's where the game becomes at its most frustrating. The entire ship sequence is hard to navigate and it just gets really boring walking through it numerous times and the constant enemy appearances become less scary than they do annoying. To an extent I can say this does apply to the enemies in the rest of the game, but the manner in which they appear can be too unforgiving for their own good - and while much of Resident Evil is built around resource management, there's an extent where this ends up becoming a bit too much.

Still, I enjoyed playing this fine enough but the more it went on, the harder it became for me to say I loved it.
