I would say that like 90% of why I like this game is the art direction. I love grimy, slimy, sweaty, dirty ass aesthetics like this. Real Texas Chainsaw Massacre vibes with this game’s visuals. It’s a strong contender for my favourite RE art-wise. It’s also the most grotesque RE by far, which I love.

I think the first half of the game captures the spirit of classic RE relatively well. I really like it. I can’t quite explain why, but the second half is a lot less interesting to me.

I love the tone, too. Quite Evil Dead-esque.

A nice return to form after 6, if not as good as it could be.
