Started playing this right after beating the first one, and holy fuck what downgrade is playing with tank control, at least some of the other changes are okay, like giving Aya a dump truck
Tank controls are acutally fine, but they suck in this game. Re3, Galerians, and chase the xpress were the ace with that control scheme on ps1
I only read the manga and it was dumb>this person in coma is clearly alive and with potential of recovering>whatever, we need to disconnect her and turn her into an organ donor right now because there are people waiting for organ transplant!>boyfriend isn't even against this because he doesn't want to be impolitehuh?
>>746482719Read the books these games were based on and shill them to me. Because the plot to both games were kinda retarded. And I played galerians.
>>746482402It really helps if you like the BP grinding. Running through the same areas over and over getting money to spend on new weapons or abilities. The whole game is full of cool areas. It's just the game expects you to retread them a bunch. I like it more than PE1. But they're super different games mechanically. PE2 wins for me because I prefer the desert town in the middle of nowhere setting to the dense but empty metropolis of NYC.
>>746482402tank controls are fucking aids for anything other than driving actual tanks. people only defend it because of muh heckin japarinos
>>746482402Guessing you don't like classic RE games?
>>746482402The game changes perspectives now and is no longer an overhead game, tank controls are kind of a must.Also unlike the first game dodging manually is necessary to dodge and moving around the arena to set up spells and attacks when the camera changes.
>>746483383Never played them, only the remake and 0>>746483246Yeah, the areas and enemies in this games look way better than in PE1
>>746482402I played the first game recently, I can't say I really understood why some consider it to be their favourite game of all time? I mean, it was solid enough all around I guess but I didn't fall madly in love with it either
>>746482402>at least some of the other changes are okay, like giving Aya a dump truckbased. aya being hotter is about the only thing it did better than the original. I also like the flavor text. it gave her a lot of personality
>>746482402They gave Aya a dump truck?
>another PE1 brainlet filtered by Parasite Kino 2Many such cases.
>>746482402How's the first one? It's always looked interesting to me but I never got around to it.
>>746483338>Ignoring the western tank control games in the 6th gen that played just fine>>746484993>Both mogged by the third game for acutally having good gameplay
>>746485069Kinda ass. This series kinda sucks as a game unless you go off the rails. But people pretend the third one was bad for no reason
>>746485146>This series kinda sucks as a game unless you go off the rails.I assume the gameplay's just a bit bland? I've seen some of it and I probably won't mind if it's not too long.
>>746483950Game doesnt look like that. this is off a ps2 playing the disc maybe if you told me its emulating how it would look on one of those sd projection tvs
>>746482402The combat system of 1 is so fun and unique. I know a couple other games use it but it's a shame it's basically forgotten.
>>746482402PE2 > PE1I'm tired of contrarianfaggots
>>746486456>I know a couple other games use itYou should play Vagrant Story if you haven't yet.
>>7464868323 > the rest. I'm tired of TRUK contrain maggots
>>746482719it was a different time.
>>746482719It was the 90s brah
>>746486456theres an indie copying it called .45 parabellum bloodhound coming out soon
>>746487004>>746488851What do you think I was talking about when I said a couple other games use it. To be fair I wasn't talking about that indie game but only indie games are doing it.
>>746482719>this person in coma is clearly alive and with potential of recovering>whatever, we need to disconnect her and turn her into an organ donor right now because there are people waiting for organ transplant!That's how it actually happens in real life, expecially when "people waiting for organ transplant" are rich or connected to the government
Parasite Eve 2 plays nothing like 1, but it's also the best classic Resident Evil gameplay wise.
>>746488893I mean, just because you know they use it doesn't mean you've played the games in question. Just saying. Also you gave me the opportunity to bring up VS, which I will never pass up.
>>746489123Ok post more anime sluts or something I guess.
>>746482402Story goes to shit too because they ran out of book story to steal from
>>746482402PE2 would be a lot better if they did a better job with the camera angles. You can't see what's even attacking you a lot of the time because the camera always seems to point away from the enemy.
>>746486456Banquet for Fools came out this year.
>>746489283nobody knows what your indie shit is but that is really stupid fucking name
>>746482402Biggest downgrade in my opinion were the animations. Despite the dated polygonal look of the first game, the characters were so much more expressive. Twos conversations just look awkward and stiff.
>>746489283just looked it upreally dude? go shill your shit somewhere else
>>746489428>>746489463>EXACTLY a minute apartTake your fucking meds
>>746489581You got a link to meds or do you only shill dogshit?
>>746489229That's why the combat is the way it is. You're meant to kill shit without seeing them. Not even the top 5 tank control coombat and the levels suck even more than the first one.>>746489428>Descibes parasite meme perfectly until the third birthday made something of the franshise Kekaroo
>>746482402I think they both great.
>>746482402I used to think the first game was better, but I've grown to enjoy the sequel more. I like how it's a perfect fusion of classic Resident Evil survival horror and JRPG. The first game has its quirks and is clearly more experimental and less "safe" than the sequel, but I feel the direction of PE2 is simply superior overall and it created a magnificent product. It's a real goddamn shame this IP is stuck in hell. No matter which Parasite Eve game you like more, we all lose by this IP being frozen in time forever.
>>746485069>>746485310It was very experimental for back in the day and you really had to be there for it. You probably won't enjoy it today but there's no harm in trying it.
>>746490190Don't forget that the sequel has some of the best new game plus design in the entire industry. I've never seen as much care for it before, you can genuinely keep on playing.
it wasn't meant to be a parasite eve game.
>>746486832You're the contrarian. In terms of story and vibes, 1 is way better. In terms of gameplay, it's 7/10 vs 6/10, who the fuck plays those for gameplay in 2026
>>746490664I play for atmosphere, and I enjoy PE2's atmosphere over PE1's, especially Dryfield. I grew up in the Mojave so Dryfield is very nostalgic for me.
>>746490190First game has better music and atmosphere. Second game has arguably better gameplay but I prefer the customization options of the first.
>>746491580Yeah I feel you there with weapon customization, you can make some pretty wacky shit in the first game.
