I did enjoy the story as well, as we did get more sneak peaks into Umbrella and what actually happened. So, some areas have a great atmosphere, like when you get to the hospital and encounter hunters for the first time, and the thing about them, they can and will kill you in one shot and they take a lot of bullets to take down, so you have a choice between killing them and wasting a ton of ammo or trying to avoid them. It’s not nearly as scary as RE2, which when I think about can be both a good and a bad thing, depending on your preferences.Ĭombat is pretty decent you are encouraged to be slow and methodical and not to rush in, because even though it’s more action oriented than RE2, it’s still a survival horror game. To be fair, I did have a general idea of where to go, so it might take you a bit longer on your first playthrough, but it’s pretty short nevertheless.Įnough with the negatives though, I have to say, I did enjoy the game for what it’s worth. I replayed it after not touching it for almost a year and beat in 3 hours on normal difficulty, without infinite weapons and while doing as much looting as I could. In the end of the day, if you beat it once, you will pretty much know where to go and which route to take.Īnd yes, Nemesis is a thing and he will chase you, but for me he didn’t feel as threatening as Mister X, even if he is technically faster and has more abilities.Īlso, this game is short. I mean, you do a little backtracking, but it’s nowhere near the same extent like you do in RE2. In this game I never had to be worried about things like that. Also, there is a hallway full of zombies I didn’t clear yet, so I’ll have to go around, but oh no, Mister X is be behind me, I’ll have to go through there anyway and risk getting grabbed. For example, I got the Spade key, right? Now, I know that in the basement there is a Spade door, but the Tyrant is chasing me. chasing me always had me worried, so I had to be calculated and make tough choices. I remember that on my first playthrough of RE2 I did so much backtracking, and doing that with the Mister X. In RE2 the maps, generally speaking, were pretty small as well, but there were a ton of different routes you can take, and as you progress you would unlock more shortcuts, puzzles and other rooms you couldn’t access previously. Ok, now before you report me to your local authorities, let me explain. That is, until you realize how small environments actually are, and here comes my main grief with this game. One of the main differences of this game from RE2 is the fact that you are not stuck in the claustrophobic police station for most of the game and can explore Racoon City streets. I replayed the game twice for the sake of this video, and on Standard I was swimming in ammo and supplies and I was killing almost every zombie I saw on the streets of Racoon City. Ok, maybe not that easy, but you don’t feel as powerless as you were in RE2 if you are somehow wasted all your ammo, which to be fair if you are playing on Standard or even Hardcore difficulty you probably never will. The game introduces new mechanics, like dodge, and it’s actually pretty easy to execute. Capcom released a game about a pandemic in the beginning of 2020. In RE3 we are following Jill Valentine, a S.T.A.R.S member from the original Resident Evil game, as she tries to escape Racoon City that fell victim to the T-virus pandemic, which by the way what they actually call it in the opening cinematic of the game. They were eventually split up to avoid delays though. This game was released in 2020, just a year after the Resident Evil 2 Remake and a piece of trivia for you, those 2 games were supposed to launch side-by-side in one package, which kind of makes sense. This week I want to talk about the latest 3 rd person Resident Evil game, Resident Evil 3 Remake. Hello and welcome to platinum review, a series where we talk about some amazing games, breakdown the roadmap to platinum trophy and I share with you my thoughts on whether you should add another platinum trophy to your collection. Did I just speedrun a game on the highest difficulty only for the sake of this article? The answer is yes.
