Resident Evil: Revelations 2

I did really like the first game Resident Evil: Revelations (2012), this game took place between the two games Resident Evil 4 (2005) and Resident Evil 5 (2009), along with the game feeling like two my favorite installments in the series put together, that being the first Resident Evil game and Resident Evil 4 (2005); this second game to that takes place between Resident Evil 5 (2009) and Resident Evil 6 (2012). The game Resident Evil: Revelations 2 (2015) was as good as the first game with it being scary with a creepy setting, investing and likable characters, easy to understand gameplay mechanics, and a story you want to see more of; there might be an occasional line of dialogue that can be weird and a recap and preview for every episode that can get annoying to see every time, but you can skip them so it was not much of an issue as it could have been.

I liked being able to play as Claire Redfield since Resident Evil 2, with her being kidnapped and finding herself on this island without knowing how it happened, and she is still a likable character that you like to play as and succeed on your mission to escape and find out who did this to her; along with new member of TerraSave Moira Burton who works with Claire to get off the island and both of them work very well together once you are able to switch characters on multiple occasions. The other two characters you play as are Moira's father Barry Burton and this little girl found on the island named Natalia who goes with Barry who is trying to find his daughter and Claire, while bonding with Natalia, and learning about his relationship with his daughter; you can play as the little girl and she certain abilities that can help. Lastly, I will just say without spoilers that it is revealed when certain events took place when playing as the characters, and they connect in some way I was not expecting when going back and forth with each character.

Like the first Revelations game, I like the setting, the idea of being stuck on a monster/mutant infested island and trying to escape just sounds cool, and it was also creepy and did freak me out a couple of times while playing; also, the mutant monsters can be difficult to defeat depending on what weapon you use and what character you are playing as, with an occasional cheesy funny line of dialogue. The graphics are nice to look at and the gameplay mechanics are easy to use with you having to switch between the character you are playing as and the person you are with to do certain things; a creepy atmosphere with a good sense of danger whenever you are near a monster/mutant, and I will not spoil a reveal of a certain character who is responsible for what is happening, I will just say that it was surprising to find out.

The game Resident Evil: Revelations 2 (2015) is worth a playthrough with it being scary with a creepy setting, investing and likable characters, easy to understand gameplay mechanics, and a story you want to see more of; just watch out for a recap and preview cutscenes for every episode because it can get annoying to see every time, but you can skip them. I will end my thoughts by saying this is what makes Resident Evil fun to play, having it be a creepy survival horror game, and that is what the fifth and sixth game had lost track of; this is worth playing for those Resident Evil fans out there, and for people who just want to play a fun, creepy, and enjoyable horror survival game.

I love Resident evil games in general, but as of late they've shifted the focus more on action rather than horror aspects. The Revelations series serves to remind us that Capcom is still fully capable of delivering chills and creating horrifying creatures. The final boss is truly a beautifully grotesque work of art that disturbs as much as fascinates. The game is also filled with eerie moments and intense encounters all the while providing limited ammunition, so every shot counts. However, as interesting as the main campaign is, Riot mode is where the real meat lies, taking up hours and hours of your time in an addictive mini-role playing action game that will give you a unique experience with every character you build up from scratch. All in all, a must have for fans of survival horror and action alike.

Resident Evil: Revelations 2 was, in my opinion, one of the best games of the series. Raid Mode especially was fun, and the fact that you can be able to play co-op in this game's campaign, unlike the previous installment, Resident Evil: Revelations. The story's main characters are Claire Redfield and Barry Burton's daughter, Moira. It's almost impossible for starters, but it's pretty fun. I recommend this to Resident Evil franchise fans and new-comers!

Not the best Resident Evil game but it's was good, I like the return of the horror in the game, and the characters in the game were good especially Claire and Moira, I recommend you to play this game.

I'm a fan of the Resident Evil franchise it's one of my favorite games of all time, though unfortunately like with most video game franchises as time goes on the pace slows down as fast as a zombie walk. The first Revelations game I felt really made the franchise pick up the pace again but I did like the first revelations game but truth be told didn't totally love it because the story wasn't that memorable, but that's just how I feel.

The second outing I personally like a lot more because of the story as well as the new kind of format they utilize. I really like the fact that they went for the episodic/cliffhanger approach which of course is utilized for the Teletale games; I think this format fits the game perfectly which made it all the more suspenseful because after beating one episode I couldn't wait to play the next one because I wanted to know what else will happen, what going on, and what more there is to uncover. But also in the utilization of the split story format which as usual in the franchise is great because it kind makes the story a bit of a puzzle as were seeing thing in different perspectives and finding out how both connect.

The story I think is great as it's pretty much focused on both Berry and Clare whom we haven't seen in a while. That's one of the things I love about this franchise whenever they bring characters were familiar with their even more interesting because you can see both physically and personally how much they've changed and how much the war against Umbrella and the Undead have affected them. I even like how the story adds one or two things new to the mythos of the franchise.

The graphics are very good, from the character animation from the protagonists to the monsters that are delightfully nasty as usual. But I really like the use of darkness and the grittiness and wear of the enviorment making it feel like a world that is against you completely unfriendly and just falling apart.

Gameplay is great it's the familiar format like with RE4 and the first Revelations and I personally wouldn't want it any other way. There is plenty of action but it's not in overabundance it hits at all the right times, and I like that you actually have a bit of strategy because in some battles you can't always fight you way out because of not just the odds but how fast certain situations can drain your ammo. So you kinda have to weigh in on fight or flight, it's up to you depending on what the situation dictates so choose carefully your life depends on it.

But of course what really powers the game is in the suspense and scares and this game thankfully has plenty of them which was I'll admit seemed to be sorely missing in the franchise. There were some situation and moment that literally made me tense, like in one sequence when a horde of zombies and monsters is coming out for an ambush, I thought oh crap I better put the petal to the metal to do what I have to do to get the hell out of there. Or even just simply venturing into those dark buildings was intense as your not sure what the hell to expect whether there could be a booby trap or even a zombie in the next turn or room. And of course that music in the game is great, I really like it whenever there is this really tense/scary toon that starts up which acts as an alarm that danger is coming and it's time to get ready for battle or retreat.

Hopefully they'll be a third and possibly final game for this, the ending did give a little hint of the possibility after all. But if that happens they'll have to change the game play up again may'be utilize the same one from the upcoming seventh volume in the franchise. But if a third game doesn't happen then I'm fine with that also, sometimes it's best to quit while your ahead.

The Revleations for this sequel are good.

Rating: 3 and a half stars
