This is a fantastic game that really captures the magic of the original while adding some new things and making it just a bit creepier. The acting and story are top notch and the replay value is very high with the unlocks and Mercenaries mode. Really hope they continue this trend for the rest of the games.

Very fun gameplay.
Really tight gameplay loop and very varied and challenging enemies.
The story is not bad, but it won't surprise you by any means. Very run-of-the-mill action movie plot.
I liked this version of Ashely more than the original because:
- I felt the time she accompanied us was not long. There are a lot of sections where we are on our own, so these sections give a small feeling of horror.
- She is more mature and less annoying.
Overall, I would easily recommend this game to anyone who didn't play the original, and to anyone who played the original and loved it and has some 15 hours to spend.
My rating for it is a 8/10. Very good.

my first RE game! it took me too long to finish it but i enjoyed it a lot. i haven't played a lot of survival horror so i don't have a lot to compare it to. took me about 18 hours to finish.
combat is insanely amazing. it felt slow at first but once i got better it was so satisfying. and the mechanics surrounding it (like the shop, treasures, resource management) work really well together. i loved that combat was chaotic and fast-paced sometimes, but also slow and strategic sometimes. in general, the pacing of the game is really on point. another amazing thing: the boss encounters! i've never seen bosses so interesting before, i was so impressed.
to some negative things: i wasn't into the characters tbh (even though i loved the story and setting!). maybe it's my fault for not playing the other games. i liked Leon and i'm okay with the mainly silent protagonist, but i felt like Ashley and Louis could've been a bit more interesting (or talked a bit more?). also, i actually didn't like the final boss :( it felt a bit too easy and not even that interesting compared to all the others.
i'm still digesting this game so i might edit the review later. overall, i stayed for the mechanics, not so much the story and characters, which actually says a lot about how good the gameplay is. while not my GOTY by any means, it felt like a polished, complete game and that feels so refreshing nowadays.
