certainly very enamored with residence evil: remade (two). the shooting & looting is very fun by itself, but they throw a bouncy ball in with Mr X's random appearances, changing how you think about pathing and planning. i enjoyed the game enough to play as both characters and finish all the side modes, which is not really something i often do so that's got 2 say something.

i did find the "Leon" character's personal playthrough to be quite weak in comparison to Claire's though. he feels somewhat limp, has very little chemistry with Ada, and despite his more frequent appearances, the delightful mr X felt relegated to the role of gimmick, as he spends too much time chasing you in scripted set piece sequences rather than dynamically roaming around the environment, jumping you at unpredictable intervals. yet it was still good fun, so all complaining is basically meaningless! gonna play this one again some day for sure
