RE2 DE and DMC5 DE for $48 each is a massive steal. Thank god I waited.
Thanks for sharing!
Oh wow what. How? Where did this come from?
With how good the graphics look I'm thoroughly impressed. I'm also stuck on deciding between 1080p 60 or 4K 30 myself.
It was mentioned in a stream the other day. Didn't catch it myself though.
anytime! i already have it ordered for ps4 but i may jump on the pc version.
Deluxe Edition here I come! I really hope that the Marshalling Yard tracks are in the original soundtrack, they are some of my favorite ambient pieces ever made. And the Claire With Leon theme.
This is really cool. I didn't know there was such footage out there of this.
Also, 60fps for REmake 2 is great. The RE engine is really impressive.
Playing REmake for the first time, wandered around the mansion for half an hour the other night, wondering what to do as Chris. Checked all rooms, looked at the items, nothing seemed to have a connection to anything else. Restarted today as Jill (friend suggested Jill for a first timer), and encountered the same problem. Wander around for 45 minutes, then a Barry cutscene in which he gives me acid rounds for a grenade launcher I don't even have.
Said I was done wasting my time, so I looked up what I'm supposed to do. Come to find out you can rotate items, and there's a key stuck in the back of the Book of Curses.
This is taking me right back to my Silent Hill days, only this "solution" seemed even more cryptic than those found in that series. At least the precedent of rotating items has been set in mind now, I guess.

REmake has quite a few rotate to find something on a item or investigate to start a puzzle on them. Definitely a good idea if you ever get anything bulky that doesn't seem like it has any use other than being put in the item box. Since that's rarely the case.
I remember back in 98-99 with no hint books or Internet.
Getting stuck for a few hours with the wolf and eagle books.
I would check them quickly and rotating to the back, nothing happened. Didn't figure to rotate to the side.

Been a while since I was so hyped for a game. RE2 is my favorite in the franchise and of my favorite games ever. Sometimes it still feels too good to be true.
No! Don't go!

Y'all...
I thought this game wasn't gonna be scary. How bad could one zombie per corridor be, anyway?
And yet here I am, clenching my ass, running away from those fast zombies. I was really surprised when the first one showed up. Finally got my first death to one, losing an hour of progress, since my ink ribbons were in the item box... I'm not even upset. That was intense, and now I know better what to do next time.

Yup, been examining everything since. Appreciate the help!
Finished RE7 last weekend. Don't want to make a LTTP thread so I will just post my brief thoughts here.
I played the first 2 hours of the game in VR last year but it scared me too much and other games came out so I dropped it. Glad I came back to it.
This was my favorite RE game since RE3. I don't know where I would rank it but I liked it more than any RE game since Code Veronica.
It had everything that I liked from classic RE games. The puzzles were fun, although a little on the simple side. Level and art design were incredible.
The Bakers were terrifying. The boss fights were cool and interesting. Even the First person perspective which I was apprehensive about, I was sold on it by the end of the game. The gun feel was incredible and my favorite in the series. My negatives are similar to what most people shared, lack of enemy variety with the molded and the last hour is not as good as the rest of the game. However, I liked the last part of the game and even the final boss which was mostly cutscenes.
Played most of the DLC
RE used to be my favorite franchise of all time until RE4 came out. RE4 was great and a revolutionary game but not what I looked into with Resident Evil. RE5 was even worse but still a good game, so I tolerated it and hoped for the best in the sequel. RE6 came out and made me swore off the franchise. I gave REV2 a chance because some said it is for the old fans of the series and it wasn't for me. So I was hesitant to buy any RE games again. I'm glad RE7 had a demo and VR mode to make me consider buying it. I'm very excited for REmake2 considering it was my fore way into the series. This gen has brought this franchise to the way I used to love it on the PS1 and that was something I didn't expect.

- Nightmare: fun mercenary like mode but those were never for me. Also Molded variety doesn't help it.
- Bedroom: Probably my favorite DLC due to the fun puzzle solving and intense moments when you are not sure if you have returned the stuff to their og spots.
- 21: I like Black Jack so I enjoyed this spin on the game. Haven't played Survival yet.
- Daughters: Got the bad ending and I think I know how to get the good one. Neat backstory and simple puzzles.
- Not A Hero: a bit torn on this one. I hate the visor and the action part of RE. Chris is becoming to resemble the worst parts of the RE franchise for me. I liked the little metroidvania section and thought it was more tense than RE5/RE6 ever were so that's a plus. The boss fights were good too. I hate the stagger then punch move in all of RE games.
- End of Zoe: Only 20 mins in and I like it so far. It's a bit silly but that's fine for a DLC. I have feeling the 2 combos will get old even if this is a short DLC.

Just started my Revelations playthrough. I like it. Glad to be playing a game (sans MVC3) with Jill again.
I can say with certainty that my dodging skills are absolute trash.
Seems like my dodges are pretty random. I feel better just running away from those monsters.

Really good video about Resident Evil 2 by The Sphere Hunter. Made me want to play it again, what a game.
REmake question.
Is there a reason to fight the snake boss? I just took the mask and shotgun shells, then left the room. I went back in and shot it up to see what would happen, and it ran away. Trophy says that's only the first encounter. Does that mean it'll keep the damage I dealt for the second encounter?
You don't need to fight it the first time unless you want to see the cutscene after wounding it. The second battle is a reset and the previous battle damage doesn't matter. It won't poison you again though.
It's much easier too since the next time the room is bigger.
REmake has been simply amazing so far... all these years later, amidst boatloads of critical acclaim, and after only having played 4, 5, 6, and Rev 1 & 2, I finally understand. Finally have a more fleshed-out idea of what happened in Raccoon City, beyond just the allusions of later games, beyond the foggy idea of "ok so there was this mansion filled with zombies in the late 90's".
It's great.
If I had to guess, I'd say I'm maybe 60% through the game? I just
Definitely going to be making a proper LTTP thread after I finish the game. This game is so old-school, in a good way.

Electrocuted the giant shark.
I don't know whether to play OG RE2, or wait for RE2make, and then play the original sometime after that. Don't wanna burn out, though.
Play the original first, it was a great experience at the time. You might either appreciate or hate the remake more because of it lol. Hopefully the former because so far I am appreciating all of the effort they went into reimagining one of my favourite RE's.
Do yourself a favour and play it.
They are complety different gameplay styles, I dont think you will burn out.
Have you a PlayStation 3 or a Vita? You can play the game on these.
I was very happy to see this in my sub box earlier. Although, it's a shame that the original games aren't the best for this sort of thing considering the lack of 3D environments.
Ada sinking into the ground is pretty funny, noticed this is a technique that is used a lot in games. It's all really fascinating.
Honestly this is the most hilarious thing I've watched in so long.
I love it.
EDIT: HAHA BEATEN.
lmao the tea.
I love that we both giphy'd it.
When I saw Chris Redfields design in RE7
100% accurate.
Oh god im addicted to this gif now.
omg. it's literally my new favourite gif.jsjrkljlsd we stan this gif
we stan the disappearing spy queen.
Thanks for responding, guys.
Yeah, I've had the game on PS3 for years now. Got no problem playing it through there. Will run through it possibly next month.
Actual glitch? How do we trigger it?jsjrkljlsd we stan this gif
No, developers use many different ways to make a character go out of a scene. At that point Ada was to do a disappearing act so Leon and Claire didn't know where she went.
Capcom's method is what you see in the gif. So yeah it happens every time if you can get the camera out of bounds.
