It was okay but I really wish it didn't fall off so hard at the end. There's a lot here that I like in concept, but it ends up being really frustrating. The dog trails too far behind you and can get lost. Sometimes his commands are way too finnicky. The chase sequences are neat at first but become obnoxious, especially in the last areas. I didn't care for the item crafting stuff, It was extremely inconvenient for pretty much no reason. The way the fixed cameras interact with the controls leads to some frustrations. At least that part isn't as bad as RE1.

There's a decent game here though. I'm a fan of the presentation. The animations on the dog really stood out to me.

I came so close to throwing my controller in the ending sequence. You have to crouch to not get knocked over by tremors, but the crouch is slow to come out if you do any other action beforehand. You fall over and you lose all your stamina as a result. all the while a motherfucker is chasing you. When he gets too close Fiona stops, gasps, and turns to face him(????). You die when you get caught and there's a moment where you get stuck and have to just hope you're far enough away from the enemy to survive. I was already frustrated from the segment beforehand and holy shit I just wanted the game to end.
