I am nearly done with the Hospital so probably not too far away from the end. Currently my Steam counter is showing 5 hours. So far had a lot of fun and do not regret for one second picking this up
Agreed - beautiful game to play!
I've just given Jill the vaccine and called it a night - not sure how much further i have to go.
+1 I think it was a way of them to sell that multi player game. As you say if you are a big fan then those 5-7 hours make it worth it.I'm torn, I love the RE series and this remake was enjoyable while it lasted... but it's really short and doesn't seem to have a huge amount of replayability. My first playthrough (on standard) was 4.5 hours and that was taking my time, reading all the files, finding all the dolls and getting all the optional weapons/items. 2nd playthrough on hardcore was less than 2 hours. I've heard nightmare/inferno shuffle some item locations (hopefully key items?) so I'll probably play it through on those difficulties some time just to see what changes, but that's about it.
Overall it feels more like £25 worth of content rather than £50. I have a lot of nostalgia for RE so I'll take what I can get and I'm not too disappointed, but I can see how it could be classed as a disappointing game for someone who isn't such a fan of the series .

t sucks for casual players on hardcore, you literally have to master the tactical dodge, if you dont you will have a bad time or unless im getting 2 old, i cant imagine doing this on nightmare or worse, just got by the first 2 main nemesis fights will literally no ammo left, and constantly in danger, ruined it a lot for me, should have done standard first, but agree with TNA

RE is all about picking and choosing your fights. You have to save ammo for when it is really needed. I was playing the original last night and it took me 4 attempts to defeat Nemesis after he kills Brad as I was rusty as hell!
If you miss the grenade launcher in the sewer can you actually defeat Nemesis in the clock tower fight where you have to use the mine rounds? I say this because the first time I fought him I'd sorted out my inventory in the save room beforehand, leaving the GL in the box with all the ammo. I saved and then came back to play again a few hours later.
I was on auto pilot when I returned and left thinking I still had it in my inventory, in the boss fight I used every round of ammunition I had on him, probably around 100 handgun and 30-40 shotgun shells. It became pretty obvious quickly that I needed the GL to knock him down, I persevered on thinking it would just take a bit more ammo than normal I but couldn't get him to fall and expose his weak point at all. I then ran out of ammo and resorted to doing perfect dodges and knife attacks for a few minutes. I assumed it had bugged out or was on a timer and decided to reset and take the GL, boom boss fight over in a matter of minutes and all that ammo saved.
Seemed really bizarre
I've not played Resident Evil before, I'm reading lots of good reports on last years Resident Evil 2 Remake, shall I pick that up or is this latest version 3 Remake the one to go for?
