    I’ve played a bit of the original Resident Evil emulated on ps5. I really like the camp and the atmosphere, but it required a bit to much focus from me to proceed further in the game. I felt it became a bit difficult to know where to go and memorize the locations and puzzles.

    I’ve bought Resident Evil HD on steam, so I’ll try it again soon in the remaster.

    My co-op buddy and I also just started RE5. I know it was made in another time, but it’s quite hilarious how problematic a lot of it is. So we’re just laughing at all the obvious stereotypes and enjoying the gameplay. We first tried on hard but it became to frustrating very quickly, so we started again on normal difficulty.

      Oh yeah I played a ton of re5 coop back in the day. Eventually you can unlock the “professional” difficulty and it’s wild. Basically 1 shot deaths and the revive meter goes down in less than a second. You have to be right next to your partner at all times if you want to be able to revive them before it’s game over…

      Still pushed through it and beat it though 😂
