This game is enjoyably organic, and a delightful surprise from start to finish. Even without the nostalgia of 3 decades past, this experience has a lot going for it. Just buy it.

I'm noticing majority of the PC playerbase for the game fall into one of two camps: either you're grateful for the fact that the game is (finally) out on PC, performs well, and don't seem to care about the fact that the price seems a little exploitative, even with Undead Nightmare added, and MP stripped out; OR, you're pissed that the game, an exact copy of the unreleased port that had been sitting around in Rockstar storage for well over 13 years is (again, finally) released for a full $50 and the spyware Rockstar Games Launcher along with it, with no cost reduction.

This is again yet another instance where I'd love if there was a neutral rating on Steam. I'd love to reccomend the game that came out 15 years ago for consoles, as it's probably my favorite Rockstar game to date, and still holds up incredibly well, especially against its younger, buggier, goofier "world-focused" brother. But, we're not here to talk about that entry.
No, this port is, from a technical standpoint, solid. No real issues that weren't already in the game (aside from the R* launcher being forced down your throat) and the requirements are fairly low, likely due to the fact this seems to be a 1:1 port of the original engine from the same time period of its original release. That, and the fact it's under 10GB in this age of bloat... HUGE plus.

If it weren't for the usual stupid Rockstar ♥♥♥♥, this would be the easiest positive review score given as of late.
Patch the ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ multiplayer in, even with P2P support would be fine- lower the price about $10-20, and remove your ♥♥♥♥♥♥ ass dataminer launcher from the requirements. Then, you'd have an easy win.

Seriously, did you not have enough money from the millions of copies of GTAV you've shilled on all those platforms now?
It's a 15-year old game, for christsakes. Yeah, you've got great scaling for modern resolutions- but you stripped the game out of its infinite replay value mode and added a launcher that does nothing but check to see if I've used any racial slurs in the last 15 minutes. Complete mind-boggling decisionmaking going on between T2 and R*.

It's fun. REALLY fun.

If it's not fun, why bother?

From the creators of Serious Sam comes... an honest, intellectually-stimulating puzzle solver discussing the place of ethics, morality, and in a functional society? While attempting to reflect upon avoiding mistakes of the past in constructing a society of the future???

What does it even mean to be a man anymore?

Is being human even restricted to being that of the flesh?

The last hour- just.. ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥.
Capcom's got plans for Resident Evil- and I hope it stays to the level of quality as this one.

As a longtime fan of RE4, this DLC delivered on the high expectations set after REmake 4- and more- that previously weren't attached to the original expansion of the same name.

Including surprises for fans both old and new, this DLC is far and away worth the money- a measly $10 for the solid 5-6 hours of content included, along with some challenge-oriented replayability for unlocks (yes, this expansion has separate unlocks), is easily worth the tenner.

♥♥♥♥ game., ♥♥♥♥ playerbase, made by ♥♥♥♥, predatory developers with ♥♥♥♥ patches. Way too much money and devtime into a game whose licensed DLC also stays broken for about a month before it's actually fun to play, specifically to farm sales from the same dumbasses that buy the DLC to get free bloodpoints from stupid players like me that bother to play the game with friends.

Feedback from simps that install the beta test branches should be completely ignored. What happened to playtesting by developers?

I may be bold in saying this, but this surpasses Future and JSR easily.

"Nah."

Another fantastic remake of the year, and an even more faithfully-reproduced one at that.
Manages to feel fresh, new, and completely reinvigorated in every way. The Cyberspace levels in particular have taken cues from 6DOF games since the 1994 release, namely of which was clearly Forsaken (especially given Nightdive's own work on that game, and its great 2018 rerelease.)

I can hardly say anything bad about the game, given its attention to detail, and sheer creativity in some spots to its predecessor- especially since the original was as pixelated and raw as the singular FPS blockbuster that preceded it a year earlier. Nightdive has certainly worked its collective cortex out on this one in all aspects- and it was a treat to unfold its many mysteries as a longtime series fan, and someone often unaccepting of change, and newer design ethos, especially in this industry.

On that note, many others have gone in-depth to cover the positives of this game, and I can certainly agree with any and all of them- so instead, I'll cover the few downsides of this game that I can recall:

⁍ The remixed elevator soundtrack is INCREDIBLY annoying. There's a bit more of a tinny-sounding twist on the original's otherwise faithful reproduction on it, and that immediately made it worse than the original's lighter-hearted intermission between The Citadel's sprawling levels. Easily the worst thing about the game by far, hope it becomes swappable by a mod fast.

⁍ There's a few bugs that have the potential to ruin parts of the game; Including, but not limited to:
◦ Soundtracks disappearing on Quickloads;
◦ Ambient soundtrack bugging out midway through a track, or not activating properly (delayed, or missing) upon enemy encounter;
◦ End-game logs becoming bugged in geography, blocking completionist achievements
◦Game-breaking bug (set to be in the first patch) on Reactor, after inputting the Citadel self-destruct code.
◦ BIG ONE, at least for me - Left-mouseclicks don't always register as inputs. I don't know how widespread this issue in particular is, because I haven't seen it talked about anywhere else- but one thing I'm certain about is that it is NOT my mouse causing this. The error isn't reproducible in any other game besides this.


In spite of this laundry list... It was a long wait, but rest-assured, it wasn't for nothing. I couldn't even imagine attempting to step into the original's antiquated control scheme again after the incredibly job Nightdive has done here.

By the way, the fantastic soundtrack is available

TLDR: Another fantastic remake of the year, and an even more faithfully-reproduced one at that.
Manages to feel fresh, new, and completely reinvigorated in every way, ESPECIALLY within the Cyberspace levels, where most of the combat has taken cues from other 6DOF games since the 1994 original. Hardly any negatives to the game, great release price now.
Stop hesitating if you're a fan of narrative-driven, no-handholding game design- this one's made for you.

This game has spoiled me for anything else until REmake 5.



That being said....


Leon's neanderthal brow and Ada's canned Zoom-call script-reading both get a NO THANKS from me.
