This is a very mediocre game. Let me start with the positives though: on the gameplay side it's pretty good - notably the gunplay. Some of the later levels and encounters are also mildly memorable. And that's all I have.

This game is built for co-op but unlike RE5 and 6, playing as the secondary characters is an absolute chore; their unique mechanics are cool in concept but it's simply not enough. Playing as Claire or Barry is infinitely more fun than Moira or Natalia.

Speaking of the characters, the story is bad even for Resident Evil standards - truly awful. Some ideas are good but any potential was squandered. What's also awful about this game is the re-usage of the EXACT SAME LEVELS in the early episodes; playing as different characters doesn't make them any more interesting.

Overall, it's an alright co-op experience. I would never play this on my own.
