for the love of fucking god i guess resident evil 4 really kickstarted a super resident evil marathon (i have only played the remake of resident evil 1 and a bit of original resident evil 2 and the massive resident evil 4 original and remake alike) so that definitely just means that im gonna go through my resident evil backlog for once so i can be one of the good kid

DISCLAIMER: i played the original game but not the full experience which means that if i remember correctly i just went through like half of leons route so i have no idea apart from that what they actually changed so thats basically it

now resident evil 2 remake exists in that weird space between a classic resident evil but with the new sophisticated additions of the resident evil 4 onwards era which is actually pretty fine if you ask me they polished some edges here and there and delivered some of the most atmospheric horror experience out there

on a visual level everything got rtx onned so its kinda pointless to go oh yeah everythings fancier bro of course its fancier we dont need to have this conversation right now to be honest BUT its also interesting to see how leon is younger and somehow even uglier than his resident evil 4 remake counterpart my brother in christ what happened to you im sorry guys but i think they hit the highest point of hotness with original resident evil 4 leon design like genuinely its absolutely fucking sad gimme a hunkier leon i dont want this

claire in the meantime is just there walking around being the most gorgeous woman ive ever seen in my entire life like shes just there kicking ass doing whats right shooting a bit running away from huge fucking monsters or whatever

so umh women amirite

being absolutely ignorant about the original material i cant say for sure what they changed forreals but as much as i have played the original i can see this is kinda legit like the locations look the same and the ambience is unmatched who wouldve guessed

you got a gameplay that really is emulating the original resident evil experience with the entire survival horror stuff and im glad it is like this like theres something about getting item a to do thing b and get result c thats absolutely fucking great i love this kind of game progression and its also the reason why resident evil 1 even tho kind of clunky in many aspects its still one of the greatest and most influential games of all time so its kinda expected that resident evil 2 would take a lot from that kind of game design

and the atmosphere about going into this haunted police department with some zombies coming up from everywhere that need like 99+ gun shots to take down and a big huge man with the most 1998 monster design ive ever seen in my entire life i wish they actually added some modernity to mr x hes still kind of freaky tho like you cant go around the police station without hearing his approaching footsteps every fucking where and shitting youself

thats also a great aspect of this the sound design is definitely some of the best ive ever experienced in a long time like every single little sound feels haunting real and clear and every bit of (scarce) music piece you listen to is absolutely phenomenal

i ended up doing route A with leon because im gay yknow this is what happens with gay people usually they just choose the hot guy like umh disgusting and anyway its weird how i liked claires storyline way more i just thought it was absolutely freaky and had a lot more intense situations BUT leons route got sexy hot ada so im pretty conflicted to which i liked more

people complained that route B was changed from the original game and it probably was if theyre complaining about it but as a person who doesnt know what the original is like i can say that the second route is pretty samey and i kinda hated it BUT claires route was really interesting anyway so i enjoyed it (me when nier replicant asks me to replay the exact same segments 4 times omg fucking great stuff me when resident evil 2 asks me to replay it one time with some different stuff UGH WHO DOES THAT)

umh

good game i just wanted leon to be hotter can you blame me
