Resident Evil 2

[endo]

Well, someone had to...

I’ve never played the original (I know), so this is all new to me. It’s brilliant. Buy it.

Doing my first run on hardcore, Leon. So far so good! There have been plenty of challenging sections, one in particular, but I'm getting through it. I seen a bunch of people get fed up with Hardcore and restart though, so if you're thinking about doing a HC run, just know it is actually pretty damn tough lol. Loving the little nods to the original game, 2 obscure one I noticed:

->Open Spoiler<-

the original STARS photo is in one of the dark room sinks, it's also in the STARS office. and the other one is the scantily clad female zombie found outside when you're putting the fire out on the helicopter, there's one like that in the original too

Just superb.

It treads the line between old school and modern so we'll.

So many things that you remember from the original and then the stuff that they will changed or mixed up to surprise is great.

2019 is off to a great gaming start.

I've read somewhere that he just wanders about but will hunt you down 8f you make loads of noise (gunfire / explosions).

There aren’t any. You’re on the run for the latter 2/3 of the game though.

[hudson]

Oh, I'm not sure what to think of this. So, if you shoot your gun later on, he tracks you down?

[J0e Musashi]

If he’s within the vicinity, otherwise you can ahoot away.

You can hear him stomping about so you know where he is, kinda. It’s easy to lose him though. I like when you’re a floor above him and you can see him trying to find you.

I was naively hoping this game would have the 'limp over the line before big cut-scene/chapter close and be at full health after' factor. No.

Loving this so much. Capcom have delivered a real gem.

As far as the two stories go, I prefer Claire’s. It’s more action-packed. The boss battles are more exciting for me. One of the cutscenes towards the end is completely WTF too.
