Can anyone explain to me why so many people still consider this the best game ever made? I'm playing through it blind for the first time right now and so far all I can come up with is nostalgia. >tank controls >extremely sluggish enemies >iffy aiming hitboxes, although usually they err on the side of being TOO generous esp the shotgun
I don't have a lot of huge complaints about it besides the slightly dated controls and not-great camera, but it's not blowing me away like the second coming of christ that it gets talked up as. It's... fine. Just fine. Does it have a sudden quality spike at some point or are people just hit with a ton of nostalgia for this thing?
It's the best game in the RE series, or atleast it used to be until RE2 Remake came out.
Austin Mitchell
at the time, it could have been argued as one of the best games around, not quite as much today with how much games have advanced good thing theyre remaking it
Charles Johnson
you have the benefit of 16 years of hindsight and progression.
In 2004 this was something completely fucking new and redefined how to do TPS games.
I don't think its the best game ever made but I understand why others would especially if it was their sweetheart game in their formative years.
Nicholas Jackson
It's amazing, great atmosphere, great action, controls are a bit wanky but you get used to them, stop trying to play it like a traditional TPS dumb zoomer.
Luke Cook
It was a timed exclusive for the GC so it was a lot of people's first RE game. The GOAT claims are hyperbolic, the game is janky and easy to cheese.
Andrew Perry
>easy to cheese. Doesnt make it any less better. ALL souls games are easy to cheese, yet they're universally praised. Going out of your way to make things easier for you is entirely optional and up to the player, thus it doesnt hinder the game's reputation.
Cameron Martinez
It's the RE for people who never were fans of RE. Imagine if Ninja Gaiden 4 became Kingdom Hearts.
Jace Jenkins
It's the best game of all time. Deal with it faggot.
