I've never played the resident evil series myself despite being a fan of the games for a while, so with the announcement of resident evil 4 remake, i decided to try and play resident evil 2 by myself.
I thought it would not be for me. I'm not really fond of shooters and stuff mostly cos it gets boring at some point. Despite that, i found myself enjoying re2 quite a lot. Even with all the backtracking, I had tons of fun playing this. The puzzles were straight to the point and it felt pretty good to know what I was doing at all times despite that being me just walking around and trying not to get decked in the face by the hugest man on earth. I don't have much to say, I'm just more excited for the remake for re4 now.
Also Leon S. Kennedy if you're free this friday evening please call me back
