This is one of the games people say it's a remake, alongside titles like Metal Gear Solid, Silent Hill and FF7 if that didn't already happen.

I'll skip to the chase, this game rocks and people who say it needs a remake should remake their own ugly ass. The combat while simple is still really enjoyable, due to the fact that the actual button to an attack is mapped onto one button and to actually pull off different moves you have press the attack button at different times to pull off different moves. You still get moves you have to move the left analogy stick a certain way to pull of an attack, like for example stinger and such.

The atmosphere is great as well, the colours and shadows give it a very unique feeling to the game along side it being set in a castle on a island. I'm sure if this was remade by it would be really lame and gay.

That being said, the camera fucking sucks dick, you can tell this was a RE game at some point with it having fixed camera angels. While it gives a lot cool shots for me to screenshot on my steam, it fucked me over a lot during my playthrough and just was a massive pain in the ass sometimes.

But overall, it's still a very fun game. I would play hard mode but since uni starts on Tuesday for me, I won't have as much time. Thanks to the Queen for dying tho and delaying me starting uni by a day tho, appreciate a lot.

If you don't like fixed camera angles you probably won't like the rest of the series OP.

That being said starting with 2 they started having no level design so it probably won't matter to you lol.

I've played DMC 3 and 4 and the camera in those games was never a problem for me
