Anyone who thinks this is any bit better than the remake hasn’t played it since 1999 and is huffing unhealthy amounts of nostalgium. This piece of shit takes the exact same game-design from 1/2 (fixed camera, tank controls) but abandons everything that made those games work in the first place, long gone are ammo management and snappy decision-making in favor of churning out an action game that simply does not work, juking is barely viable due how many enemies they put next to one another, and the fixed camera is poorly implemented because it hardly ever shows you what you need to see, one screen it’s empty, the next screen you find out you ran into 3 zombies. The fact they put a dodge system in a fixed camera game is ridiculous in and of itself, but they went ahead and made it so it requires frame perfect precision and is mandatory for getting through the game, not only that but it doesn’t account for the camera angle changing mid-fight AND enemy behaviors happen to be erratic and unpredictable.
