Interesting approach to choice making and rewinding to change your decisions. Reminds me of the Butteryfly Effect. Recommend it for sure.

So I have beaten the main story line/seperate ways/assignment ada. .
UPDATE ON FPS DROP IN POSSIBLE BUGS.
||||||| If your 60FPS mode starts going into slow-mo. Press M for the map screen, wait 2 seconds then it should be back to smooth. Instead of alt-tabbing out. Haven't crashed like this.||||||||||||||||||||


Having only played the gamecube version of this game with at least 75+ hours clocked in when I was younger, I expect a lot. I expect a lot especially as the first port, that I actually have, ended up as garbage. lol

I saw that this game is being updated with its bug fixes/add ons which makes it feel promising so I decided to buy it. I loved RE4 too much not to give this a try.

First off, having played RE5/RE6 where the controllers are smoother on pc, I feel spoiled. I won't take away/bad talk RE4 due to the fact that they are trying to keep this game as close as possible to the original which I can appreciate(or at least I Think they are).

You can't move/strafe while aiming, you have to aim to reload, the movement feels old (it came out in 05 lol)
Stuff like that is something I will just get used to.

Fortunately, you can change the key binds. I already hated using "E" as a action button. I switched that to "F".

The 60 FPS and graphics looks sexy as ♥♥♥♥.

After a good 20 minutes, the controls felt smooth, they feel almost exactly how I played on the gamecube. The "modern" aiming style is phenomenal. The only thing that scared me was the first QTE from the boulder run, made me smash X with XC to dodge.

UPDATE: Just started 2-2 and I cannot complain. So far I am loving this game! The controllers feel great after you get used to them and aiming does not feel restricted! The team could not have done a better job.

UPDATE: The team really out-did itself by listening to the community and fixing the bugs! They remade the game enjoyable and I love them for it.



NEGATIVES

A negative I found is using the inventory. Maybe I haven't figured it out yet but using the inventory is a pain already lol. I don't want to have to move my hand from my mouse just to move stuff around. Yes, call me lazy but thats just me.

You have to deal with Ashley again lol

The audio-desync started happening near the ending scenes. I'm sure they will fix this tho as they have fixed more than half the game already.

Seperate Ways movie clips look like complete ass lol

POSSIBLE BUGS

After I save, the frame rate dropped to 30 but since the settings are on "60", the game speed was just cut in half. All I did was alt-tab and it would be start working normal again. This was from the first save typewriter, the ones after that were normal without bugging out.

I have been having a lot more FPS drops/"slomo"bug. My game will become really slow/drop to 30fps but all I have to do is alt-tab out and alt-tab back in.

It seems that the FPS drop/"slow mo" keeps getting worse and worse. It happens often anytime I switch the screens like say I go to the merchant or just simply press tab. Of course all I do is alt-tab back in but that crashed my game once so now I'm scared. This is something that should be looked into and fixed ASAP.

My pc specs are
AMD Phenom x4 965 OC'ed to 3.8ghz
8gb DDR3 Kingstong HyperX ram at 1333mhz
MSI Twin Frozr III GTX 560 TI 448 core
