This game is Capcom's magnum opus as far as I'm concerned. They have taken the foundations of everything that made the original game revolutionary and improved on them in every way you would expect from a modern release. All of the core mechanics of the original are here with some new ones thrown in for good measure, like parrying and gem inlaying. The RE engine still does not disappoint with amazing looking environments, characters, and weapons. Nearly every character has been improved and fleshed out from the original, with the best improvements arguably being Luis and Ashley. Unfortunately, Ada's voice actor was miscast in my opinion. The camp has been toned down and the horror turned up, which I am honestly fine with and it tracks with the direction of the REmake series to this point. With the addition of Separate Ways DLC recently, you can expect to get the full package of a modernized iconic classic which, in my opinion, is the quintessential survival horror game released to date.

I still miss breakable and slammable doors , grenades that actually work , on-screen transformations , the PRL 412 , Gangster's Leon Old animations , etc , I really hope they resolve the problems with the new RE Engine soon
