All I’ll say is that RE6 is definitely a game for one who’s already neck deep in the series as opposed to a relative newcomer who would get a better first impression with RE5 if they’re looking for raw action. Not that there’s anything wrong with that. Part of RE’s charm is that it actually feels like a universe where straight survival horror a la RE1/RE7 and the pure campy John Woo-aping goodness of the CGI movies can coexist. Only that RE6 is weighed down by other things which might get tiring.
and finally landed back in the crowd-pleasing sweet spot for RE8 (which I absolutely adore and beat like half a dozen times).
Funny thing is that I actually prefer RE8 to 4 (though I played it first). I would consider close to perfect if it were a good bit longer and didn’t kill off the entire villager cast in the first 30 minutes.
I also enjoyed RE3R, although it’s not quite as good as RE2R and a bit on the short side.
It’s a fantastic game on its own merits. Maybe it can get a rerelease pumped full of content someday and people can appreciate it…
