I thought I'd go through and play all the DLC for the recent Resident Evil titles, since I skipped them when I first played the games, but now I see I didn't miss much. The premise is to show "what-if" scenarios of characters who died in the base game, so it's non-canon, and the settings are recycled areas from the main game. I found the difficulty way too high - it throws tons of enemies at you the whole time and severely limits your resources, to the point where it feels like if you make one mistake you may as well start over. There's no new lore to discover, no new settings, and it's just not fun to play through. Anyone looking for more RE2R can safely skip this.
