Topic	So what Resident Evil games are worth playing after 4?
Snake5555555555 10/15/21 2:35:22 PM #4:	My essentials list would be this, in this order: Resident Evil 2 Remake RE7 RE8 Resident Evil 3 Remake Resident Evil 5 Revelations 1 + 2 Resident Evil 2 Remake isn't just one of the best REs ever made, it stands as a must-play essential of gaming in general. Coming off of RE4, you'll find right at home with its OTS perspective and similar gunplay. The game is as challenging as you want it to be, with perfectly balanced difficulty settings. If you want a real survival horror experience, hardcore is the way to go but otherwise normal offers a good balance. RE2 is one of the shining examples in the genre and I constantly suggest it as a gateway game. RE7 & RE8 should come next. The transition to first-person means things are up close and personal and thus more frightening. RE7 is far closer to a traditional survival horror game, with puzzle exploration and heavy resource management. RE8 is similar to RE4 and has more emphasis on action. It's also more linear with the caveat being there's a lot of places to go off the beaten path and hunt for treasure if you desire. RE3 remake is a thrill-ride and will not be the game you're expecting after RE2 remake. People rag on this game all the time, for some good reasons, but in my opinion it's a fantastic distillation of action-horror in a game that won't take you very long to beat. It never lets up for a second, has memorable characters, and tons of replayability. Resident Evil 5 is fantastic as a co-op game, as you may have heard. It's more of what RE4 offered, with a partner and interesting dynamic and interplay that comes with an extra gun. If you're into RE lore at all, I think it tells a great story as well. Revelations games were the stopgaps between RE4 and RE7, the best and worst of both worlds: action and horror. They never quite commit to either one which makes them feel watered down at times, but the pacing and structure of them means things never feel too stale. I actually quite love Revelations 2, a lot due to the character work (Claire & Barry hell yeah), but there's also great horror moments in it too. --- I've decided to put my fears behind me. I'm not going back. (almost) every horror game ever made: https://tinyurl.com/completehorrorgameslist <cite>Snake5555555555 posted [p:959064067] in So what Re...
