it is with a heavy heart i report that this resident evil game fucking sucks but after the absolute wildfire that was Resident Evil 2 (2019) i cant blame them for trying to follow up on it. this game does the bare minimum to evolve the gameplay and even then what it adds is pointless (the dodge and mashing during grabs that do nothing) and everything else is reduced (Nemesis never appears dynamically despite that being his whole gimmick and RE2 already having AI for it, levels are barely interconnected and instead more linear and with two or three times as many zombies as the previous game, etc.) i hesitate to say this is all the work of “the b team” since thats not how that works but nevertheless, i can understand where the sentiment comes from. a very halfhearted game coming off the heels of one of the best games of all time. jill valentine is so fucking hot though

i've softened a bit on this one since launch but will always be bitter that this was the chance for RE3 to somewhat step out of 2's shadow and ended up like this.

while they majorly fumbled the bag with this one, I think it keeps the spirit of the original by being shittier then RE2
