i think this game receives harsh reviews due to its initial price point of $60 with a 4-5 hour single player story. i do believe it should've been a DLC along side resistance, but it's not a terrible game by means. it lacks a lot of replay value that RE2 remake gave us and its shorter completion time is a deal breaker for most. which is why i waited 3 years later and got the game for $10, i do believe at most it should've been priced at $30 with resistance. sure it's a bit of a downgrade in terms of cut content from the OG, completion, puzzles, gore, replay value. it still has that charm to modern RE games and it was a genuinely good time playing it after some time passed. the combat was great, new dodge mechanic felt snappy and great to use, returning enemies now seen in the RE engine, bonus scenarios were fun and added a bit of extra content. its no RE2 remake in comparison and sure as hell not worth $60 upon release, but for sale you can catch the game for $10 and its definitely worth a try if you love the REmake series :-).
