Rate top gamesI've never been more than a passing appreciator of the original Resident Evil 2, and have in fact probably said more than once that it's a tad overrated when compared to its sharper, more focused predecessor. I'm not sure whether that was a help or a hindrance when it came to giving this remake its fair shake, but I do know that this is one hell of a game. Seems to strike the perfect balance between modern gaming QOL concessions and the survival horror tropes of yore. It's not just another tired Resident Evil 4 iteration like the dreadfully boring Revelations games, nor is it an RCPD skin applied to the shockingly great Resident Evil 7, either. No, it's its own new evolution of what RE is, and it makes me really excited to see what comes next.
(and if that's RE3, I'll be there on day one)

Loved this game sooo much. Honestly, I always recommend this game first to ppl who wanna get into re
It's a good game, but 2 campaigns are not needed. The differences are too small even for 2nd story. Also sewers level is quite moderate attractions nowadays, almost dropped the game there. Graphics is exceptionally good - I can understand why people who played the original 20 years can experience deeper nostalgia feelings. Atmosphere, sound, shooting & puzzles are pleasing, but could be shorter or less motivating for 2nd useless walkthrough
8.5/10 if you do 1 walkthrough (I would say Leon's story is better)
7/10 if you go for both campaigns
