im not even gonna lie this is my new favorite game of all time--at the very least, tied with disco elysium
im so in love with every aspect of this game it's like the work of fiction ive always wanted to experience
(NOTE: if you're considering playing this game, I HIGHLY recommend playing AW1 + Control first, or at the very least reading the plot of those games online)

This game is STYLISH. It's honestly really intriguing all the way throughout, I'd say it only loses out due to a somewhat samey gameplay loop and (if we're being honest) a few unnecessary side elements to the game.
The ending is fucking sick.

good, fun, atmospheric as all hell
points lost because of numerous quality of life issues, mid combat, and the less consistent quality of the areas outside spencer mansion (they're still good, but not AS good)
this game suffers from being compared to what came after--RE2R basically solves everything I DON'T like about this game so despite the fact that RE1 does some things really really well, it still lands at 7/10 for me
(EDIT: honestly, as I sit on this game, I think of it more and more positively--the atmosphere is fantastic, the story is fun, and the puzzles are interesting. it's getting a retroactive 8/10)
