Its very good, but it never changed my mind that it is a completely unecessary remake. After finishing multiple times on hardcore and professional, I ended up feeling that most changes made the game worse.
Just point a few that were the most significant:
- the change from laser sights to traditional crosshairs, although more realistic, exchange the 100% precise gunplay of the original with a luck factor due to the guns spread.
- the randomness of staggers during combat. Its very inconsistent and impossible to know when a headshot will stagger or not. It made melee combat less reliable.
- there is a lack of warning for enemy grabs, specially from behind. The "de tras de ti imbecile" line is much less frequent here
- a minor complaint, but not reloading guns automatically when empty is very annoying (and does not make sense, since Leon is much more experienced now)
- soundtrack became generic blockbuster orchestra.
