There's really no other game like this, nearly 20 year later still. There's a lot of good and some bad both in terms of the game itself and the port.

Pros:
-great level design
-arguably great combat
-interesting enemies
-campy/anime tier cutscenes
-nice weapons
-solid boss designs
-memorable characters
-progression and pacing is never boring
-controls translated nicely for mnk
-inventory management turned into tetris
-new game plus and extra campaigns, plus a horde mode called mercenaries
-escort the NPC done right

Cons:
-lackluster settings menu (the only settings are language, widescreen, and some controls)
-can't swap weapons without opening inventory every time
-rifle reload is 30fps somehow
-quick time events
->there's an unskippable cutscene with what feels like 5 continuous minutes of qte
-if you want thematic consistency that's a no

Further things to consider:
-70% of the game still *looks* like 2004. I still think it looks good, but it's dishonest to say they made a "complete visual overhaul".
-tank controls (it's not as bad as people make it seem but it's worth a mention)
-it's a huge departure from every RE game before it, arguably more action focused than survival or horror. Not much exploration but also no backtracking. Not as tense but also much more streamlined. More like uncharted and less like alien: isolation.

Online doesn't work. Can't join friends. Tried disabling firewall and forwarding ports, but it didn't work.
They fixed my issue, it's a pretty fun game.

Controls are tight. Graphics are on point. Storyline is relatable. Goals are challenging and pacing is very adequate. Has side objectives and endgame content for hardcore players. 10/10.

Weapon sunsetting greatly disrespects players' time and effort, and shows that devs are unable to think laterally about power progression OR balancing. Power climbing was already a questionable design choice but instead of relieving players of that grind, Bungie further made it more aggravating.
