    Resident Evil 0 was already widely considered one of the weakest traditional entries in the series, due to its meaningless story and tedious game design. There were so many possibilities that could have worked out so much better if some of its design got tweaked, and if Rebecca was a new and totally different character so the story wouldn't clash with the established canon. While it is an exceptional looking title, the ridiculously longer load times is a good way to ruin the mood to keep playing on top of the gameplay being inferior to older entries.

    Well...a several years ago I played this saga. In fact, RE0 was the first that I cant beated ever for the same reason..too much hard. NotWell...a several years ago I played this saga. In fact, RE0 was the first that I cant beated ever for the same reason..too much hard. Not because of enemies but the less ammunition, few space to storage weapons and the 2 players coop system that doesnt work as well.

    In fact. RE0's a great game, longer than I expected. The game runs great in switch system likewise RE1 remake.    … Full Review »

    This is a remastered?? Ja !! Really?? What a joke! This game is very mediocre game at best.
    Best advice: Use a walkthrough literally, don’t    This is a remastered?? Ja !! Really?? What a joke! This game is very mediocre game at best.
    Best advice: Use a walkthrough literally, don’t waste your time. Cons: (which are a lot)
    1. Inventory: you only can carry 4-6 items. Some weapons need 2 boxes. Also you’ll have to juggle items between characters. It takes a lot of your gameplay time. Tedious! Very Bad design! Absolutely annoying!
    2. Loading times: take way too long (20 seconds..sometimes even 30) and happens each time you go to a new room. Doubling you’re gameplay time. Simply tiresome, boring and annoying. Couldn’t play for a long period of time. Had to put down the game. 3. The door opening/ stair/ladder sequence: very annoying each time you open door or go up a stair. It takes too long and visually is outdated 4. Character movement: very clumsy at best. Picking up items is a shore. Have to try many times .Very bad controls and mechanism. Bad design!
    5. AI: sometimes gets in the way. Can’t even get into the lifts correctly. 6. Camera angles: is a complete desastre. Sometimes you’re aiming to the wind cause you can’t see enemies. Exposing yourself to die.They’re off camera. Stupid idea of a design!!
    7. Puzzles: Are not well designed. Had to look for guide many times. Hit many invisible walls. For example,the math/code formula to stop the train was ridiculously ludicrous and. Nonsensical, illogical and irracional . How they came up with the math is baffling!! I got pretty bored running around in a clumsy and awkward environment. 8. Horror/survival formula: disappeared completely with all this annoying issues. The game became just another tiresome and shoring game. Loading times throws off the mood of the game !! I forced myself to finish it.
    9. Combat: is awfull, terrible. A mess. No auto aiming . It’s a clumsy mess. Is a joke. Targeting system is mediocre. You shoot to the air many times. Not good controls.
    10. Everything became a shore. Not fun or frightening. Just playing through automatically, not feeling anything besides annoyance. The worst thing is that this is a “remastered” version. Not a lot of effort from the devs. Don’t buy ! Buy the other RE ones!    … Full Review »
