    We might never get a remake of a resident evil game that tops this one. It really felt like a resident evil game.

    It is like a nightmare when you are chased by Tyrant. However, it looks like cute when you realize you can doge all the attack through movement.

    Nunca jugué a los clásicos de Resident Evil pero tengo que reconocer que con la llegada del RE2 Remake me animé a meterme de lleno en la famosa saga, fue tal lo que me gustó que la parte de Claire me lo pasé en un solo día.

    Los gráficos son impresionantes se ve precioso el juego de eso no hay duda, apenas vi errores gráficos y eso que tiene muchísimos detalles visuales. El Gameplay

    Los gráficos son impresionantes se ve precioso el juego de eso no hay duda, apenas vi errores gráficos y eso que tiene muchísimos detalles visuales.

    El Gameplay cambio respecto al original con una cámara pegada detrás y un poco subida al hombro, eso fue lo que hizo que me decidiera por fin a entrar en Raccoon City.

    Hay dos variantes de la historia con Claire o con el famoso Leon, el modo campaña cumple pero sin ser nada excepcional.

    Creo que es un juego que cumple para los nostálgicos del antiguo título y a los nuevos les enganchará fácilmente, un juego casi redondo en cuanto a Survival y que te hará si o si repetir en RE3.

    Resident Evil 2 is quite a gem. An unexpected one for me as I'm not normally one for survival, shooters, or horror so you can imagine I was quite surprised to find such a compelling experience in this remake of a two-decade old game. Since I picked this up I've completed the game a handful of times and my latest attempts scored me an S+ on the hardest difficulty with both playableResident Evil 2 is quite a gem. An unexpected one for me as I'm not normally one for survival, shooters, or horror so you can imagine I was quite surprised to find such a compelling experience in this remake of a two-decade old game. Since I picked this up I've completed the game a handful of times and my latest attempts scored me an S+ on the hardest difficulty with both playable characters; Leon Kennedy and Claire Redfield.

    Now, as someone who isn't a diehard fan of the series let me just say this: Dropping the tank controls and fixed camera angles that I remember from the oldest entries in the series was the move that convinced me to give this a shot. From there what developed was a bit of rollercoaster in terms of my enjoyment. I was immediately enjoying the action, the gore, the gritty and dark nature of the setting. As an adult male I really shouldn't have a problem with the dark - but this game gave me one. I couldn't bring myself to play this game solo in the dark, and at one point I even had my brother play for an hour or two with me just so I could make some progress.

    The gunplay was and is what reels me into this game every time I boot it up. It is just so satisfying to shoot zombies in their stupid faces and to feel like you're permanently removing an obstacle that is in your way. I've never personally shot a gun in my life, but everything about shooting one in RE2 feels satisfying. You cannot imagine the shameless glee you feel not just the first time but everytime you 'crown' a zombie, which is when you score a critical headshot that makes their heads explode in a mess of blood and gore. Parts of your developing arsenal allow for a higher success rate than others with this, but even the first weapon the game hands you has the potential to trigger this effect.

    Part of the reason for my slightly conservative scoring of this game that I've now drawn hours and hours of entertainment from is a selection of elements that may well be agreeable to you. I know that my issue with one particular enemy in this game is one that most people will find inspiring and an inviting challenge.

    So I personally deduct a few points for the elements of this game that excluded me from enjoying it for a while. The horror and the cheap jumpscares weren't as much of a problem as I perhaps made them out to sound like initially. While they did get me to put the game down for days and even weeks, they wouldn't prove problematic in the long run. I eventually overcame them and in retrospect I can enjoy them for what they want to be on the first few times you come across them.

    The biggest road block to my personal progress with the game came about a third or halfway through. One particular enemy is introduced that immediately changes the game from what can be a slow strategical uncovering of the map and all of its features to a frantic chase for the next solution to whatever puzzle is currently gating your advance. If you are a veteran of the series and the genre, I'm sure you didn't have my reaction to this but I simply quit the game and didn't touch it again for a few months.

    I was trying to figure the game out on my own, and being as new as I was to working under pressure in the way that only true survival horror can deliver I couldn't deal with the steamrolling of my otherwise functional strategy of playing it safe and slow. I barely had an understanding of the map, so adding a constant and ever-present threat was enough to have me give up.

    So how was the game salvaged for me, and not just that but turned into such a playground again that I ended up completing the game on the hardest difficulty? Well, memes were my rescue. Months into what I thought was my final dismissal of the game I came across a set of memes that ridiculed this one enemy type that washed away my fears. Suddenly, I felt an itch for the game again. And whenever I came across this enemy I would regurgitate this meme telling myself that I would be fine, and that really it was just another puzzle to solve. One that wasn't even the timer that I once saw it as, but rather a puzzle in motion that could become predictable through study.

    Finally, I am not a fan of campy elements in story telling. I prefer a focus on maintaining immersion rather than delivering fourth wall breaks. I appreciate realistic and relatable characters over stereotypical charicatures. Now, I know that Resident Evil has had elements of camp all along, so I'm not raking RE2 over the coals for something that surprised me in any way. It just detracted from my experience, and one character in particular is so loaded with this problem that it overflows. This was the second point of this game that made me put down the controller and skip it for a while.

    But this IS a game worth a look whether you are new like me or a seasoned vet. Now I look forward to seeing what Capcom does with the sequel.

    Resident Evil 2 Remake consegue trazer todos os elementos de survival horror que conhecemos lá na segunda metade dos anos 90, aliado aos melhores elementos da atual geração, o jogo fica mais empolgante ainda quando mudamos para a trilha sonora original, dando aquele ar de nostalgia para quem viveu e jogou o Resident Evil 2 lá em 1998. A CAPCOM acertou em cheio com esse jogo, não dá vontade de parar de jogar, e vale salientar que, o jogo está muito bem otimizado, esse jogo é só qualidade, não vi nenhum defeito nessa maravilha. quem dá nota baixa ou 'não recomendo', simplesmente não tem coração, kkk

    Quando vejo uma nota 88 no metacritic, vejo o quanto esses novos "reviewers" são frescos ou querem que todo jogo tenha 40min. de cutscene e 10min. de gameplay, ou certamente é aquele saudosista que vive batendo na tecla de câmera fixa. Esse jogo está impressionante a cada ponto do mapa que você visita, dando aquela impressão: Eu já passei por esse lugar. Não tem como não se impressionar com a beleza gráfica da RE Engine e o clima de terror como há muito tempo não sentíamos na série Resident Evil em 3ª pessoa, pois o RE7 já conseguiu resgatar o survival que conhecemos lá em 2017.

    Esse jogo será o Game Of The Year de 2019, os jogos que serão lançados ao longo do ano, terá que ser excelentes para ter a mesma qualidade do Resident Evil 2. Espero muito que a CAPCOM continue nessa ascendente, pois seus últimos jogos são excelentes, e já fico na ansiedade de ver RE3, Dino Crisis, RE: Outbreaks e Operation Raccoon City (ORC que teve uma boa ideia, mas uma péssima execução) na RE Engine, mas o mais provável que aconteça, é a vinda do Resident Evil 8, que também fico na ansiedade.

    Holy **** I never got into RE before as it wasn't my type of game. Boy I was wrong, this is a masterpiece.

    I'll cut this review into 3 parts:

    1. Gameplay
    2. Story
    3. Replayability

    Gameplay:
    The gunplay in the game is extremely solid, with a great sense of survival horror. Tight inventory management, scarce ammo drops, zombies being hard to kill, etc. This all adds up with a great atmosphere especially in the RPD, the true star of the game. What helps making this atmosphere even more frightening is the music and sound design, while music isn't always there, the sound of zombies and their footsteps echoing through the halls are excellent. The lickers are back in full force, with these very tense moments when you sneak right past them. And of course, how can we forget Mr. X? This giant dude is gonna make you poop your pants. He's not really scary on his own, what does make him scary is his omnipresence throughout a part of the story, you can constantly hear his footsteps in the background coming closer and closer to you, so good. The boss fights, while not numerous, are very well executed. Birkin and his G-Virus are back in full force, he's been given so much love. These boss fights are tense and hard, as it's supposed to be with RE, scrambling for resources and making sure you can kill the boss and survive with the resources you have is such a good feeling. Definitely something they nailed. The game looks absolutely amazing, like wow, this **** look good.

    Story:
    RE2 follows both Leon S. Kennedy, a rookie police officer and Claire Redfield in the harrowing journey through Raccoon City. There are A and B scenarios for both Leon and Claire, which follow each other like so, Leon A --> Claire B (not canon) and Claire A --> Leon B (canon). Both these story's in there A and B scenarios respectively are amazing, even though you do play mostly the same game, with a few minor differences (the side character of each story, Sherry for Claire and Ada for Leon). There's still some janky dialogue, mostly because they stayed true to the 1998 original. Also some cut content, but nothing that feels like there is something missing in the game. Overall, my first playthrough (Leon A) was about 8 hours long, add in all the other story's I ended up with 20 hours of story gameplay. Very good.

    Replayability:
    This game begs you to play it again on higher difficulty and with a better score, so you can unlock more stuff. You get infinite guns and challenge yourself to play the game like a real pro. There's definitely a lot of things to do in this game. Not to mention all of the extra DLC you get! The Ghost Survivors are a great addition that expand on the story of the game and give some insight as to what happened before or after you get to that point in Leon or Claire's story. You also unlock the 4th survivor mode once you finish the game, where you play as Hunk trying to escape RC with limited time and resources, such an adrenaline rush that gamemode was! The extra's in the menu is also super fun to look at.

    My final verdict: 10/10
    This remake is a masterpiece and sets the bar high for every remake Capcom is planning to make in this series, can't wait for RE1 to be remade like this!

    Короче, игра шикарная: бэктрекинг, головоломки, ленты для сохранений, более менее некринжовый научно-фантастический сюжет, в общем все как у оригинала и у 1-й части. А так же из нового: крутой графон, хорошее звуковое сопровождение, отличный редизайн персонажей (я просто посмотрел, как выглядели Клэр и Леон во всяких 6-ых и Revelations 2...), Мистер X, манящая атмосфера, немного переработанный в лучшую сторону сюжет.

    Короче, чем игра хороша, уже рассказали по 500 раз. Про плохую сторону медали люди говорили реже. Но у игры есть несколько недостатков, которые меня просто вымораживают и не дают поставить почти заслуженную 10/10.

    В общем, эти минусы кроются в сюжете и лоре. В оригинальной RE2 было что-то похожее на пересечение сценариев, когда действие, совершенное игроком в сценарии А, влияло на происходящее в сценарии Б. Хотя и в оригинале полно такого, что вам приходится в разных сценариях за разных персонажей крутить один и тот же вентиль, и т. д. Так вот, в ремейке вообще нет никакой взаимосвязи между сценариями, кроме нескольких кат-сцен. Причем все попытки выстроить эту взаимосвязь в голове ни к чему не приводят, ведь здесь не то, что таймлайны не совпадают, это вообще будто параллельные вселенные. Ибо, мы валим одних и тех же боссов, разгадываем одни и те же загадки, ходим по тем же самым локациям (за исключением пару мест, где разрабы сделали уникальные мини-локи для каждого персонажа).

    А ведь можно было выстроить крутые пересечения, которые бы и дополняли историю, и показывали сценарное мастерство разработчиков, и предоставляли игрокам новый контент. Для этого, как минимум, надо было бы сделать альтернативные пути для каждого из сценариев, т.е сделать уникальные головоломки, уникальные локации для каждого из них, чтобы было понятно, что Леон делал в это время одно, а Клэр - другое, и время от времени показывать как наши действия влияют на другого персонажа.

    Особенно ТУПО, что разрабы так сделали когда-то в DLC Separate Ways для RE4, где в целом было реализовано то, о чем я говорю (с косячками, но было). Тут же, вообще ничего нет. В общем, это халтура. Увы, пересечений сюжетов нет, и это очень расстраивает. Очень. Согласитесь, если сценарии были бы по-настоящему другими и проработанными, было бы еще круче, а у игры и так вроде неплохой рейтинг, даже с учетом этой вот фигни. На самом деле серьезный недостаток, но в остальном игра очень крутая. В общем как-то так. Спасибо, что прочитали, если прочитали.

    First thing first: this remake of Resident Evil 2 is a masterpiece. This episode gathers the two best elements of the saga:

    1) the atmosphere. It's neither the pure action of RE4/5/6 (although I love RE4) nor the permanent terror of RE7. It is this thrilling anxiety, that plays with the perfect light and sound effects, this stress of not knowing what's gonna be behind this wall
    First thing first: this remake of Resident Evil 2 is a masterpiece. This episode gathers the two best elements of the saga:

    1) the atmosphere. It's neither the pure action of RE4/5/6 (although I love RE4) nor the permanent terror of RE7. It is this thrilling anxiety, that plays with the perfect light and sound effects, this stress of not knowing what's gonna be behind this wall corner... Unlike RE7, jump scares are scarce, but this leaves room for this more subtle anxiety accompanying the player at every step.

    2) the "over-the-shoulder" view. Yes, I also kinda like the good old fixed angles sometimes but mostly because of nostalgia. This episode brillantly proves that you can have a flexible third person view and yet keep the core aspects of the game, i.e. the atmosphere and the survival.

    Game Design: perfect

    All aspects of the design are thought as a survival: apart from the classical limited inventory and reduced ammo compared to the number of mobs, the new elements of the gameplay greatly contribute. You'll discover it is sometimes surprisingly hard to hit a zombie, because the aim has an important spread unless you stand still for a few seconds, but also because zombie moves are erratic. Props to Capcom for managing to design zombies moves that both make them feel like real zombies, and serve the gameplay by making them hard to hit.

    The other mobs appearing later in the game also contribute to the great game design. Lickers, especially, are a crucial point of the gameplay, as they practically force you to walk (instead of running) in some areas. When you enter a corridor with a licker, zombies, and Mr.X running after you, the adrenaline rises... and you understand how well the game is designed.

    Level Design: awesome

    Speaking of design, this is a trait of the RE series: the level design of the police station (I'll talk later about the other places) is awesome. The map is huge, the layout of the keys, locked doors and other objects is thought to keep the player both tense and curious to progress at every single point of the game. You have to visit multiple times some areas (but usually it's because you got a new key, and your perspective on this area changes), and you can ignore some others that contain only "bonuses". But what is great is that the level design is so well thought that visiting these bonus areas is not just a matter of being a completist or not. Reaching them sometimes means having to overcome zombies, lickers or worse, and the risk and the ammo consumption this represents must be put in the balance together with the potential gains, making your choices highly strategical.

    And if you think the level desing is only "good", wait for when Mr. X comes into play. You will realise that the position of the doors leading from one wing of the police station to the other, the size of the corridors, the position of the lickers... everything is thought also to make the hunt with Mr. X one of the tensest moments the game.

    Mr. X

    He deserves his own paragraph. The cat-and-mouse game with Mr. X is to me the climax of the game. I don't want to spoil too much, but his AI is really good, his walking pace is very well calibrated to reinforce the fear he inspires, and the noise of his steps are both a source of stress and a key element to play the game around him. I just have one regret: there are a couple of rooms where he is programmed not to go. I know the game design was already complex enough not to have to think of how he could interfere with the player when dealing with a puzzle, but knowing there is a room nearby where he never goes kinda releases the anxiety of having him around sometimes.

    Yet, I repeat: this was for me the best moment of the game, the core of what is survival-horror.

    A few cons though...

    1) Just like RE0, and I would dare to say a bit like RE1 as well: the quality of the level design decreases as the game goes further. Of course, it is difficult to rival the level design of the police station, but the levels of the sewers and the NEST are far more linear and predictable in my opinion. No more room with 10 doors with 3 different key symbols, but mostly long linear corridors and the end of which you know in advance which key you will find. The level design there is not bad per se : it is just a little underwhelming after spending a few hours in the police station.

    2) Again, just like the other episodes of Resident Evil, the scenario is full of promises in the first hours of the game, but as you progress through the game, you realise that not much more than the few core, predictable elements are revealed, with no big twist, no little detail hidden here and there to look after in the next episodes... a little disappointing.

    This remake of Resident Evil 2 was arguably one of the most anticipated games in the last years, and although it is difficult to match the expectations when they're so high, Capcom did it brillantly. Congrats.

    - The second run is almost the same as the first one with both characters. The sequence of events is a little different but the game is the same. You play again for a new boss fight and a 3 minutes animation at the end.

    - Lore problems. The antagonist should have died from the bullets he got when he was human (should rewrite that scene). Why Claire would attach to a girl she just met in a survival situation? Gets even bizarre when you give back the child to her mother then continues to play mama.

    I as a fan of Resident Evil 4, I will say that RE2 Remake does not look like old part 2 (1998) at all, except for the locations, characters and plot. And so a lot of mechanics are taken from modern Resident Evil, the game is very similar to my favorite part 4. So my rating is 10/10

    Claire and Ada are both **** hot. The game was pretty good too. Mr. X was too scary not to be scary and the inventory management didn'tr really do much beside making you go and get **** and go back and put it in your ****ty **** chest. 10/10 tho

    This remake is a total masterpiece. Played on consoles back in 2019 and now that I upgraded my rig with a 3080ti I was ready to replay re2 at native 4k with ray tracing all ULTRA at 60FPS, what a blast.

    The graphics and the creative design are the main features here. Inventory management is a mini-game inside the game that kept me compulsively optimizing the space and making decisions about which ITEMS to keep or store. There is a ton of incentives to keep playing the game. After completing the 1st and 2nd run with both characters, I got a cheap DLC to activate all unlocks. I was done with the game by that time, but I kept coming back. Playing as Claire with the military custom, made the whole experience more real for me, as a Female Civilian blasting her way when on places where many trained security forces died was a hard sell for starters. But that military custom with the STARS patch on it made sense for me, and the infinite ammo MP5 and Handgun helped me to replay the game several times without grinding for bullets and ITEMS.

    I have like 120+ playtime hours on STEAM on this game, given it's a linear single-player story, that is a LOT! And that's indicative of the replay value CAPCOM throw at this package.

    The game looks stunning, Graphics looks amazing, but if you gonna go into the game thinking the game will be scary, Then you'll be disappointed. The game isn't scary at all. there are some scary moments but they are very little.

    Conclusion:- Buy the Game.

    I never played the original Resident Evil 2, so when I found out about the remake, it didn't take long and I had the honor to try this game. I was quite interested in it, because I never played two and I was simply uninitiated about RE2, but the remake fixed it all. So I'm going to talk about the remake.

Unfortunately, I can't compare much, because I didn't play the original game, as I mentioned. What immediately took my breath away was the graphics. No, I don't think anyone would be as beautiful, but I mean, when I look at the original game and the remake, you can see the damn difference. Not only are the textures, of course, many times better, but the overall change to a third-person perspective has, in my opinion, been excellent. The game will not keep you waiting too long and you will find yourself at the police station in the first hour, where you will also lose more or less the whole game. But you don't have to be afraid. The police station is quite large and it's not surprising. Capcom can squeeze the given location quite well, as we have already shown, for example, in the seventh part in the form of a house. Here, at the police station, you do things that are a classic in the Resident Evil series. You go lost here and there, you collect raw materials, you create healy, you gradually improve your arsenal and there is also an unpleasant solution to puzzles, where I spent an hour solving a puzzle around chess. Resident Evil can do all these elements to number one, but the number two enriched it with one more element and that is Mr. X. A big guy who chases you almost everywhere except the safe room. Once you find it, you can't get rid of it, and the steps you hear while running around the station here and there looking for raw materials, those steps create a great atmosphere and the feeling that you can't stop and that someone is still after you. it goes and it really goes! As soon as Mr. X gets and you have nowhere to run, so you're quite in the fat, because you may not even have a full magazine from a weapon and Resident Evil is one of those games where wasting ammunition is not a good idea and every round is useful. It is best to give headshots to zombies. On Mr. But that's not enough for X and you can only shoot his hat. Although I'm not mistaken for the achievement, which is fine, but Mr. himself. X won't stop and will go after you, and as soon as he's with you, he stretches out and punches you, he can do quite solid damage and you then have to heal and waste your valuable, crimped healing ingredients. All this, meaning that you have few rounds, you have to hit and the fact that Mr. is still after you. X creates quite a lively horror. The only downside to all this is that you have it too fast. Unfortunately, something similar applies to RE as to, say, Call of Duty. It's just short. Personally, I finished the game in about 10 hours in Leon's skin and I was still loitering. (I usually always get lazy: D.) The nice thing is that you can still go through the game behind Claire, who has a slightly different passage, which will extend your gaming experience. The problem is that it still does not save the game from a perfect rating, because not only is the game short, but there is also DLC in it. Such a DLC containing the Original Soundtrack should not be a DLC, but this option should already be in play. On the one hand, I understand that the authors needed to make some money. It is still a remake of a game that is several years old and not everyone will buy the game and would rather wait for a new episode, but the fans of the two who received a remake would, in my opinion, deserve the original soundtrack already in the game, because I personally had this DLC and it spice up the game a lot. Despite the short gameplay and paid DLC, this is one of the best horror movies and especially one of the best remakes I've ever played. Whether you played number two or not, I recommend this game.

    Both visuals and sounds are doing a fantastic job immersing you in a dreadful situation your characters have found themselves in, but the level, enemy, and encounter designs are what truly keep you on your toes the whole time. The puzzles are intuitive yet sometimes pretty clever, and, together with resource management and routing, they form a solid, thoughtful gameplay loop punctuated by seamless transitions between levels and locations. These environments are emaculately well done, too, although hardly original by todays standards. The Orphanage, though, will definetly stay in my mind for some time. The later levels dragged just a bit in my experience and culminated in bossfights I would consider tedious, but that didn't hinder my enjoiment much.

    The plot is challenging for me to say anything about, as the Resident Evil mythos is very mature and influential, so nowadays the story may feel a tad naive, but it surely is competent, and the characters, although shallow, are appealing.

    Resident Evil 2: Remake was a fantastic way for me to experience a classic and is a great game overall.

    Из минусов я бы отметил, прохождение игры второй раз, хоть пути у Леона и Клэр немного разные что поддерживает интерес к игре. Ну сделать одних и тех же боссов в одних и тех же местах, после того как ты уже убил их, на этом месте в предыдущее прохождение, это как мне кажется зашквар.

    ill be there you once again play as either Leon Kennedy or Claire Redfield during a deadly outbreak in record city with hordes of zombies and other grotesque monsters unleashed throughout the city the two protagonists will experience their series of harrowing encounters throughout the larger story Resident Evil 2 is very much a game about localization as your resources get dwindle and the monsters become more dangerous the pressure is constantly increased as the game progresses even the smallest of victories can feel like a major win in Resident Evil 2.
    After finishing the first playthrough you can follow up with the second scenario allowing you to see the other side of the larger story through each scenario largely covers the same place and ground they won’t impact the other what makes them worthwhile are the different encounters and game plots that happen for particular characters won’t see for the other game’s.
    This remake is an understated survivalist approach from the original main games and along with the best and responsive controls for many locations and their layout and similar save for the new area and a different monster to deal with the events therein are different when recognizable scenes happen they often play out in radically different ways though early games in the series have a reputation for coming off as melodramatic the remake presents a more believable plot that maintains its poise its also propped up by some impressive writing and strong performances to help convey a palpable sense of urgency and despair some of the games more poignant moments are given to minor characters including the doomed police lieutenant Marvin Brenner.

    In one of the part more tense encounter you may cross in path with the tyrant an opposing force of nature and a threat that activity stalks you this dynamic adds serious pressure to certain situations making some of the common foes you’ve gotten handle of become genuine threats once again though the tyrant is an effective stressor during key moments which can make getting the best of its all the more satisfying there are times where it can disrupt the overall pacing this is especially frustrating when you’re trying to accomplish minor objectives in crowded spaces which should be tense encounters can sometimes become annoying exercises in trying to lure it away sometimes taking advantage of the tyrants rather limited AI to do just that while the remake often keeps seeing serious its not all doom and gloom in addition to occasional reference that break the tension there’s also a suite of unlockable content catered to hardcore fans including the classic outfits for both Leon and Claire after completing the campaign for both characters the bonus mode starring fan favorites hunk and tofu will unlock these timed encounters allow for a chance to cut loose battling against hordes of monsters without the worry from the largest survival horror mechanics from the original game its not only a stellar from the main game but its simply and strong horror game that gives anxiety inducing and goosebumps’ in some situations and some of the series finest entries but above all the remake is an impressive game for the fact that it gives all in one pure survival horror game.

    Was always intending on playing this game after my time with Resident Evil 1 HD, with my plan to complete all the main line RE games within the next year or two. I was highly anticipating this game in the series based on the incredible reception it received in 2019 when it released. I should mention also that I never played the original game, so I don't have a comparison for you here.Was always intending on playing this game after my time with Resident Evil 1 HD, with my plan to complete all the main line RE games within the next year or two. I was highly anticipating this game in the series based on the incredible reception it received in 2019 when it released. I should mention also that I never played the original game, so I don't have a comparison for you here.

    Visuals - This game is absolutely gorgeous, the character models look great whether it be your human characters such as Leon, Claire, Sherry or Ada, or the zombies which I spent some time looking at their character models in the menu, there is a lot of detail put into the visuals and you will notice this almost immediately, the atmosphere of each section in the game is great, from the police station, to the sewer, the lab etc.

    Combat - I played on standard difficulty, there are options to play Hardcore but you will be limited in saves which I wasn't a fan of from the first RE game so opted out for this one. It is a survival horror so avoiding combat is helpful to you when you can, but when it is needed, I felt very much in control of what I was doing. The shooting mechanics work great, you cannot just spam your shooting otherwise your accuracy will suffer and headshots are very important, shooting zombies is a treat as you can see sections of their body tear off as you take your shots and it is visually very pleasing. Other sections of combat would be your boss battles and felt they were all fun, following a similar format to zombies, shoot and run, the only thing I would have wished for was a dodge button of some sort, as sometimes it was difficult to avoid getting attacked, this was introduced in later RE games, but yeah would've been nice to have it here, not necessary though. Combat is a big plus for me and a big step up from the RE1 remake where I mostly felt I had very little control of what I was doing in combat.

    Story - You have a choice between playing as Leon or Claire, after a google search, it seemed most people were recommending to play as Claire first and then do Leon in the 2nd Run section as that concludes the story completely. I have played as Claire in full, but Leon I am currently in the middle of my 2nd Run with him. I cannot give a full view of the story, but just from Claire's story, I was very much satisfied, sibling of Chris Redfield, who I know very well, I am not as familiar with Claire so this was a real treat for me. Both characters head into Racoon City together to find it overrun with zombies and the plan is rather simple, seek help, but when that fails, get out, though both find alternate goals along their tale. Overall, happy with the story, nothing too complex, just what I wanted.

    Performance - Rather quick thing to go over but played on my relatively decent gaming PC at max settings for most things (or close to max settings), You get a lot of options in selecting how you want the game to look and perform which is really nice as you can limit certain things you don't care for to improve performance and the ensure your PC can handle it. During my gameplay, I didn't encounter a single issue, no crashes, no major framerate issues, no glitches, was a 10/10 performance experience.

    Scary - For me personally, not really, but I am a fan of horror and can handle it quite well, the atmosphere of the game is fantastic, it does create the vibe of being cautious of what is around certain corners, what is really dead, and it does contain some jump scares but nothing too major. I definitely felt creeped out during parts but I was mostly impressed with just how well designed it is, the police station feels relatively simple and you may encounter a zombie falling from a higher floor which may startle you, but when you move to locations like the sewers or the lab, you will find different enemies that may get a reaction out of you.

    Expoloration and Item Management - Not much to say here, but it was difficult to do this in the first RE as the game is not designed with modern gameplay styles and it was kind've a slog to get through, but for RE2, you will be balancing out weapons for combat, to keep you alive and to solve puzzles. Expect to explore around each location and grab whatever you can to help you, if you like to look in every nook and cranny, this will be your cup of tea, I loved it in this game, was great to find different items and never once got stuck where I needed a walkthrough. You will be going back to save rooms to swap out items often, but you do come across pouches that increase your carry capacity which is so welcomed from me.

    Final Rating - I only have minor issues in relation to the game, I never felt that I was having a bad time, it was a complete reverse with how I felt about RE1, this game took everything I loved from RE1 and perfected it into a modern game for the 2nd in the series.

    This game stands out from the others because it can be scary. My heart was beating fast throughout the passage.
    Some may say that the plot is too weak, etc. But it's a remake! And this is the plot of 1998, when video games were not so well thought out.

Just like almost any Resident Evil game, it suffers from an amazing first half and a so-so second half. The Police Station and Mr. X are the golden highlights of the game and are filled with tension because of how underequipped you are and how Mr. X actually looks for you instead of just spawning near your location, to the point where you can run off to the other part of the police station and not see him for 10 minutes. 
    Unfortunately, the other half pales in comparison. The boss fights range from mediocre to bad, like that crane one. 
    Two playthroughs are a must because Leon and Claire's paths are indeed different enough to warrant replayability.

    The map is great, maybe better than the original in some ways. Buy the original sounds and use that the new soundtrack is ass. That may be why this isn't a 10/10 for me. Also the A and B scenarios were make less important.

    this game is amazing especially its combat, ragdoll physics and how each weapon causes a different damage/mutilation.
    My interest in the game was simply to appreciate how each zombie behaves with one shot.

    Excellent game.
    I hadn't played the original, but I thought it was all very good.
    Graphics, gameplay, story and the way things go.

    The second run that I think could be more embedded in the story, but other than that, great game.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Amazing remake. I also didn't play original RE 2 but I watched the playthrough.
    It's truly fascinating, how they reworked all rooms and areas from static camera view to 3rd person view. I love it. Great graphics, story, characters.
    I have to say, that Mr. X is much better than Nemesis because he just slowly walks towards you and that is way more terrifying.
    Incredibly great game overall.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Wow, a really fresh change of gameplay for me after ive been grinding sekiro and elden ring. RE2 does so many things well, it really is one of the most well made and well thought out games. From the graphics to the gameplay, everything is well rounded and never fails to fill the player with adrenaline. I finished Leon A and Claire B in a matter of 3 days, which really shows just how immersive this game is. The enemies can be annoying at times but once you get the hang of it, finicky things like navigation and boss fights become very enjoyable. 9/10, to think this is an even better version of a classic game is truly something.

    First of all, I have to say that it is interesting that there are so many puzzles in a horror game. Also, the undead zombies are an ordeal. All in all, it's all a good experience. I just wish the claire story was a little different because doing the same things was boring. Nice work, Nice remake!

    Game is very good. At first it seems kinda short but u have two characters to play with diffrent story. Game is challanging but not to point where starts to be annoying. In my opinion RE2 is a good game to start your journey with this franchise.

    Resident Evil 2 Remake is a masterful retelling of one of the most iconic survival horror games of all time. The game's graphics have been completely overhauled, giving the world and its inhabitants a new level of detail and immersion. The gameplay mechanics have also been updated, making the experience feel fresh while still staying true to the original's roots.

    The story remains unchanged, following Leon S. Kennedy and Claire Redfield as they navigate the zombie-infested Raccoon City. The tension and suspense have been ramped up to new levels, making each encounter with the undead a heart-pounding experience. The puzzles are just as challenging as they were in the original, but with the added bonus of beautiful, high-resolution visuals.

    The sound design is top-notch, with every shot, groan, and scream adding to the atmosphere. The voice acting is also noteworthy, with excellent performances from the cast bringing the characters to life.

    In conclusion, if you're a fan of the original Resident Evil 2 or are just looking for a terrifying and well-made survival horror game, this Remake is a must-play. It's a testament to the timeless appeal of the original and a showcase of what can be achieved with modern technology. Highly recommended!

    This game is fabulous, man. I just beat it with my gf - was her first look at the franchise. I consolidated some thoughts I had about it previously and introduced her to the game. There are so many things to talk about...

    First of all, the gameplay. The level design here is impeccable in a way that, when you start the game, you don't realize that you will be familiarized so much with it. That's what happened with my gf. She complained about the size of it, saying that was too much to learn. Eventually, she was running around figuring out things by herself and enjoying it. besides, when the game requires exploration in order to progress and outplay the enemies, it becomes natural. And there's Mr. X also... man, she was terrified. Even I, whose already beaten the game, was anxious about his steps.

    The plot involves you fast. The premise itself is crazy. You wanna know what is happening impersonally when you arrive at the police station, but how much more you are deep into that **** the more you wanna know since a lot of things are at stake. Also, the graphics are so good here. The characters aren't unidimensional, and the facial expressions help them so much to transmit it. Talking about that subject, we can not forget about the gore. Jess, it's crazy good and satisfying.

    At least, but not less important, the audio design. For some reason, I decided to put my soundbar on my desktop. I put the bar below the monitor and the subwoofer below the desk and man... We could feel the pressure of the flame thrower, every shot with the sub and the steps of Mr. X were even more terrifying. I couldn't recommend it more.

    Right now, we're starting RE 3.

Je me suis parfois "perdu" à certains endroits notamment au commissariat où je naviguais entre les zones sans l'objet demandé ou en ne pas savant vraiment quoi faire (ce n'est pas un point négatif au jeu car c'est parce que je suis un peu ♥♥♥) .
    L'histoire est bonne, elle n'est pas incroyable mais elle est assez cohérente et intéressante.
    En plus de la campagne principale, enfin des 2 car il y a celle avec Léon et celle avec Claire, il y a d'autres modes et des défis à faire pour ceux qui veulent passer plus de temps sur le jeu. Je ne les ai pas encore testé mais ils ont l'air sympa.

    All Remakes Should Be Of This Quality

    Resident Evil 2 Remake is a phenomenal game which offers a large amount of content for the price that you pay for it. It is one of those games where you will truly get your money's worth, especially when it goes on sale.

    First of all there are two campaigns, Claire and Leon. They are similar but different in a multitude of ways, different endings, different parts of the Police Station you can access, different weapons, but once you play your second playthrough as the opposite character from your starting one, you'll notice that some parts of the game are more or less the same.

    The game looks amazing, the amount of detail the graphic designers put into the police station and other set pieces to make the game look realistic is outstanding, there are so many small and fine details that are easy to miss but if you just take a moment to appreciate it, you'll notice the real love that went into this game.

    Combat is pretty decent, but if you go around trying to permanently put down every zombie you see, you'll run out of ammo fast. There is only a set limit of how much ammo you can obtain each playthrough, enemies do not drop extra ammo upon killing them, which players might be used to if they've come from playing the 4-6 games. The part that makes the game proper survival horror, is knowing when to fight and when to run, consider saving your ammo for when you truly need it.

    The puzzles are great and I personally don't think the backtracking in this game feels as tedious as it does in most games, mainly due to the fact that you might think you've cleared an area but something has changed whilst you've been away or some random zombie has decided to go for a wander and now he's there to contend with. The puzzles themselves aren't necessarily difficult but as long as you keep ample inventory space, you'll be fine.

    The story is pretty decent, it's really just about surviving and trying to get out of the City and more revelations reveal themselves about the origin of the breakout and what not as you progress; as well as different files dotted around the map to give you some context and some world building, but in terms of storytelling it's definitely not on the same level as something like Death Stranding or Detroit Become Human.

    I only had one gripe with the game and it wasn't consistent all the way through, sometimes you do just get slapped with special infected or a copious unmanageable mount of Zombies at one time, and you can easily be stun locked if you're not careful.

    It's also worth noting that after completing the game you unlocked "2nd Run" mode, which basically is the same game but the items are in different places and certain things play out differently, it gives the game excellent replayability as you won't know the locations of all the items you got in your first playthrough. More games should learn from this.

    Another fantastic feature is the "Records" bonus content, where you get three short scenarios about three different characters from the game that aren't really expanded upon. Most developers/publishers would have released this as a paid DLC, but it's completely FREE and in the game, giving you some new characters to play with a new scenario to play out. So there's some extra content after you finish the main campaigns, once or twice.

    Overall, Resident Evil 2 is a testament to how games that were limited by their technology at the time can be remade into near perfection. This is how the game was meant to be played and any developer, in my opinion, that remakes a game that does not fit this standard of remake that Resident Evil 2 offers, shouldn't bother making it.

    9/10, you will absolutely not regret this purchase.

    An experience unlike most others I have had in my gaming life. This has to be the first time I have played a game 6 times in 30 hours over 2 weeks. Obviously the nature of the games structure is the reason for this, but it’s brilliant nonetheless. Found myself speedrunning the game and loving every second.

    Two decades after the release of the original trip into the biohazardous universe of Resident Evil, Capcom delivers the best instalment yet. The world you'll be thrown in is a dangerous one, and it doesn't just look the part, but also makes you feel the thrill of being a survivor like never before, as each bullet shot, each item found, and each decision taken, can make the difference between life and death. Simply put, remake or not, this is survival horror at its best.

    The remake of Resident Evil 2 succeeded and can’t be criticized for much. Converting the original game into a modern form sets the bar for all future remakes really high and shows how it should be done. [Issue#293]
