Hearing/reading a bit more it sounds like a bigger step down than the original RE3 was.

- Shorter. 5-7 hours to beat taking your time and exploring
- Nemesis stops being scary by the third encounter and changes behaviour to be a boss with obvious weaknesses and isn't as scary or effective as Mr X
- More linear than RE2
- Less areas than the OG RE3 which hurts the already shorter experience
- Less puzzles than RE2 Remake or OG RE3

It's not a bad game but it sounds more like an expansion for RE2 than a full priced game.

OG RE3 had Mercenaries to add replay value which isn't here. The Resistance mode hasn't been taken into account yet though to be fair.

I think people should keep their expectations in check. It still sounds like a fun experience at least.

this seems like a fair assessment, given what we know. I will def still buy the game but when it goes on sale, which will probably be soon. RE2 did great commercially and critically and it still was featured in sales soon after release.
