  One RE2R Licker was ten times scarier than the entirety of Mother Miranda's army combined

  The amount of effort put into this video really shows. I would genuinely hope to hear your full thoughts on RE 2make in the future

  When I started playing this game I was convinced the twist at the end was that Ethan was having some bioweapon-induced hallucination that made him imagine he was in a warped version of the book Mia was reading at the start. Like, the tone and setting was just too fucking goofy. But no, we’re meant to believe that dominatrix dragons, mutant fish humpbacks and a guy who controls metal are all in the same universe as the prior games. At least RE usually tries to ground what’s happening in some sort of pseudo-scientific explanation, however stupid.

  You actually are the second person I came across on YouTube who actually noticed how linear the castle section is. Other youtubers are just praising this section.

  For a RE game to be survival horror, it needs to be a puzzle. Not just have puzzles mind you, but as a whole needs to act as a puzzle. Every step, every bullet, herb, and item needs to be carefully planned, used and kept otherwise you are severely punished for a lack of strategy. Horror alone doesn&apos;t make it a survival horror game.

  Village gives me the vibes of like Van Helsing. It’s not scary per say but it’s horror action

  if you asked me what RE is, I&apos;d probably say a survival horror game series where every game has a heavy focus on either puzzles or combat, and is known for it&apos;s resource management system.
