My comprehensive review of the game:

Did I like RE2 Remastered? Yes
Would you preferred it been a remake? Also Yes.


I never truly got to play through the entire original Biohazard 2/Resident Evil 2, I only played the demo I gotten from those pizza hut CD's back in the day. I can only understand it from Playing RE1 remake, Resident evil 0, and deciding to play an emulator of Resident Evil Survivor. I grew up playing Resident Evil 4 and 5, and Silent Hill games. Resident Evil 4 was fun but growing up as to an adult there is something left to be desired in survival horror that RE4 doesnt fill, but Silent Hill did. Sure they get creepy concepts such as regenerators, but with surplus of ammo AND a scope that makes them turn into an annoyance, it was lack lustered. Resident Evil 2 on the other hand I think knocks it out of the park.

I started my session on Hardcore, since in my eyes the true way to play horror games is on the most grueling difficulty imaginable to get the best experience. It took me 7 hours for Leon's A story, then 2nd run took 4 hours. I can say without a doubt that I enjoyed every second of it. Survival Horror in RE mightve been saved by this game, closed off hallways, tanky enemies, the soundtrack, the graphics...Although I like to say graphics doesnt mean the game is good or not, this made it so much better. Everything was so detailed.

I continued to play more and more until I got S run on Leon. I played 4th survivor and the free DLC, then bought the original soundtrack to re-experience the game. I know we arent even half way close to the end of the year, but I can safely say that this Remake is Game of the Year edition. The voice acting on some parts are a bit awkward, like between leon and claire. and mainly claire's interactions.

Im trying to say good things about this game not to spoil your tastes, but if you researched this game/looked at people playing it, it has probably been slightly spoiled and all I can say is that this is definitely worth the price tag.


Also Ada is bae and no one can tell me different
