I loved Revelations 1. It was my introduction to the series believe it or not. Now I’ve played every mainline game including Code Veronica. Just to clarify, I don’t hate this game and I definitely would play it again. It just wasn’t as fun or engaging as Revelations 1. 1 was also way creepier in my opinion. She-Wesker was kind of a boring and uninteresting villain as well. Am I missing something? I would love to hear y’alls thoughts.

    I finally played it and came back here to report.

    “Disappointment” doesn’t even come close to what I feel about this game. It was terrible from start to finish, both in the story department and gameplay. It’s funny because Rev1 is in my top3 RE games, while this one competes with Code Veronica for my most hated game in the series lol

    I was looking forward to playing this game so much because of Claire and Berry, but Claire was done dirty in this game, and Berry was… Okay, I guess? Kind of milquetoast to me. And I agree on your opinion about She-Wesker, I wasn’t interested in her in the slightest.

    Kind of surprised this game has an actual decent reception on the internet. I’ve seen most people rank it above Rev1 and other classic games such as RE3.

      Oof, sorry you didn’t like it. I can’t say I blame you. Much of the game felt like filler to me. I recall long boring sections that just went on and on. I’m surprised that so many RE fans like this one. More power to them I guess.

      Also playing as Natalia or whatever her name was suuuuuucked. Every time you had to play as her I just thought “fuck, not again”. It’s a boring mechanic I found uninteresting.

      I agree Revelations 1 was so much better. I’m biased though because that’s the game that got me back into gaming as an adult. I expected something much more like the first.

      I actually liked Code Veronica funny enough. It’s ungodly hard at times I’ll admit. I think it needs to be remade because of its accessibility issues. The story is really interesting. I also really like RE0 which fans seem to dislike.

      At the end of the day, I don’t regret my time with the game except the time spent replaying the last chapter. Another game crossed off my list is good enough for me. May we both live to game another day.
