been talking about this game a bunch with a friend while we were both doing no heal + sub-2h runs and I have Opinions

RE3 remake opinions, spoilers 

first of all, the game feels great, it's a lot of fun, the enemies are beefy but you get lots of weapons and ammo and also the sweet-ass dodge move

the boss fights are all interesting and involve a bit of thinking, but it's a bit sad that the grave digger has been completely cut

but all the interesting puzzles have been cut, a few cool places aren't in the game anymore (esp the clock tower and the park), though I do like the short electrical switches puzzle with the parasite spider thingies, it's very tense

the game reuses so many assets, like I get that you're gonna be reusing everything you can but at times it's a bit too much? This is a full-price game and in many ways it feels like a cheap cashgrab. A lot of the gameplay happens in very linear spaces, you run one way, grab something, run back, grab another thing, run back again… it gets a bit too obvious. RE3 did reuse a bunch of RE2 stuff but it added so much on top of that

the story is cool and I like how they portray the characters, especially Carlos gets a lot more personality. I hope they add something like the Ghost Survivors DLC so we can finally learn what happens to that guy who locks himself in a trailer

in summary: the RE3 remake isn't a bad game, but it's far from the amazing game the RE2 remake is and I wish Capcom had given it a bit more time and money

what I am excited about is Resident Evil 8, since they now have a lot of characters that all fans, old and new, are familar with
