Title
I can't say I'm a fan of Remake 2, and the "thumbs up" rating here has more to do with its importance to the series and the overall production quality. It's not a bad game at all, and my first playthrough was quite enjoyable.
However, I personally believe that Remake 3 did a much better job a year later than Remake 2 in many ways. Nemesis from Remake 3 as an "immortal enemy type" is far superior to Mr. X, who is very annoying and too mechanical here. The variety of locations in Remake 2 pales in comparison to the levels in Remake 3 too.
And I'm definitely not a fan of the way Remake 2 handled two campaigns from the original, leaving them both too similar and contradictory to each other. What was acceptable in 1998 doesn't look so good in 2019.
So, once again, while I can't argue with the overall quality of Remake 2, I unfortunately can't praise the game either. And I'm a little sad about the criticism that Remake 3 received because I really think it's a much better game than Remake 2.

      aside from a lackluster B scenario, I don't really see the disrespect. And the OG is in my top 5 favorite games ever.

    The fixed camera mod is pretty cool, but the controls/combat were not designed for this adaptation at all lol. Took a while to feel quasi comfortable with it.

    the threat is this game is pretty much an illusion but holy shit what a fucking amazingly executed illusion i shit myself

      What do you mean an illusion? Everything can kill you, and on hardcore, one hit puts means you have to heal otherwise you will day next hit.

    The best iteration of zombies in games, love them as enemies and how they look and sound. The sewers and lab are inferior to how exceptional the RPD is, but they still are very good areas. Just roaming around the areas feel good by itself, perfect ambience. Great game.
