This game actually fucking slaps and it sucks that its director is stuck down in the REmake mines for the foreseeable future. I legit think if it had a higher budget and didn't have a really stupid name where its a sequel to a 3DS spin-off it would be considered a top tier Resident Evil by most of the fanbase.
I just started it. Replayed Rev1 a couple of days ago and this would be my first Rev2 playthrough. Hopefully it's as good as the first one or better.
The game itself was ok, I just didn't particularly care for the chapters being organized as "episodes" with recaps like we're watching a tv show or something. MGSV did the same thing. I'm glad japan stopped doing that.
>>734216632I miss Raid mode. It should come back sometime.
>>734216632A top tier game with garbage mouse aim implementation. I suffered through it because everything else carried it, but the keyword here is still "suffered".
>>734220428https://www.nexusmods.com/residentevilrevelations2/mods/102That was fixed recently
>>734220428I just installed a mod that replaces it for raw mouse input. Works pretty decently.
>>734220223I actually liked that when playing ot weekly, but I can see how it would get annoying afterwards when it's a complete game.
>>734216632Do the new games ignore the canon from Revelations? 1 at least establishes rampant international bioterrorism that you can't really walk back once you make it a constant thing, and the only way to escalate that is by doing what RE6 did. But then it becomes extremely hard to believe that life is still somehow normal after 6 and all these new BoW and virus variations keep popping up.
>>734220792Nothing before RE7 is canon and arguably even latter games.
>>734220792>Do the new games ignore the canon from Revelations?New games are even more standalone than previous games, you can skip both Ethan games and start playing 9 and the only thing you'll be confused about it who are the NVG dudes in Chris squad
>>734220890>who are the NVG dudes in Chris squadHound Wolf Bro Team deserves a game. They look so chill.
>>734216632I'm getting to it... I'm still stuck in the RE6 mines
>>734220223It was actually an episodic game so it made sense, it was really fucking stupid with Rev1 because that game wasn't episodic.
>>734217575Rev 2 is better, I couldn't get into Rev 1 though I tried.
>>734221186The moment I saw those homos I knew COD normalfags were going to be like "yooo these dudes are soo sick woahhh umber eyes thats like ghost from modern warfare"
>>734216632Game is really solid and maybe a little underrated. They’re never gonna resolve that Natalia Alex wesker thing are they?
>>734224194>"She's the perfect candidate, only problem is that she's a child, but time will take care of that.">This wasn't just a throwaway line, it's been 10 years since Rev2 and time DID take care of that
