RE2 is really fun game just like RE1 both making for some amazing games and I absolutely adore the style of these games.
First things first, The police building. It is such a joy to explore and an upgrade to the mansion from RE1. I absolutely love the atmosphere of the building and some of the tragic stories you learn while exploring every nook and cranny of this building, for example Leon's desk filled with party hats and decorations and notes welcoming Leon to the team but instead of smiles around you it's just the zombified remains of your coworkers all of them out to kill you. I liked stuff like that even if they are kind of scarce.
While the police building was amazing and really fun to explore, I do feel like the game did drop in quality after leaving the police building to escape but that part was still fun nonetheless, albeit not on the same level as that feeling of exploring the police building for the first time.
Next up, it's the combat, which has also gone up a bit by filling the rooms with more zombies and more difficult variants to deal with but at the same time hitting that perfect balance where you're getting swarmed by zombies while also having a chance to fight back if you have the means (which you probably will since this game has ammo everywhere lmao).
Mr. X for Claire's campaign was also scary and a real threat the first few times but he just stops being a threat after the 3rd time he appears because you can just find ways to avoid him by that point while also being loaded with bullets and such which just gets rid of any panic and fear he made you feel at the start which was kind of disappointing.
The voice acting also got an upgrade and by that I mean instead of sounding like a parody, everyone now sounds like a Spiderman 2 NPC.
This game was honestly a fun ride from start to finish and this game is a must play for anyone who enjoyed RE1 no doubt about it.
