I enjoyed elements of this game but as a whole it overly medicore.

I was a bit bummed that I got the bad ending but in all honesty the choice that decides it is stupid. What I will praise this game for is that Barry is great, and the atmosphere and design of the enemies and environments are briilantly disturbing which is exactly what Resident Evil should be.

What I don't like about this game mainly is the gameplay. I found the partner mechanic to be tedious and dull. This wasn't helped by how much this game drags. It is way longer than it needs to be and the story isn't interesting enough for it to drag out like it does.

This is a fairly negative review and don't get me wrong, I did enjoy this game at times hence the decent rating. It is just the things I didn't like really frustrated me hence why I mainly talk about them. I see this as a very low 3 as I feel 2.5 would be too harsh. I have the DLC but have no real interest in playing it.

i got the bad ending my first time playing this and had absolutely no idea what i did wrong and had to look it up and go back and do it the right way. I didn't like this game at first but after replaying it a few times i liked it a lot better. The DLC is meh honestly, you can just look up the cutscenes for it really. I thought the story of this game was pretty solid though, I hate its a spin off storyline because i feel like the implication of the ending should be brought up again in the main games but i bet we will never see Alex or Natalia again unless we get a rev3.

@count_zurgula I may revisit this in the far future and may like it more after doing the good ending but this really left a bad taste in my mouth so in no rush! I doubt we will get a REV3 but I wouldn't be againt the idea.
