By the looks and feel of the demo I can confidently say it's the first must buy game of 2019......

 

Holy crap this is insane! I'm so getting this!

 

Yup, looks pretty sweet.

 

FPS to expect
970


1060


2080ti

 

Ah, the memories that brings back... the original PlayStation.. dual shock controllers... 8mb memory cards..

 

I've never been into the franchise, except for RE4, but I have to admit this looks freaking awesome.

 

Played the PS4 demo and downloaded the PC demo, it's a fantastic remake and a great demo

EDIT:

I forgot to add this, an issue I experienced with PS4 Pro, it seems that HDR is botched for this game. Using HDR results in an uniformly grayer picture compared to regular SDR. I hope this gets fixed, because it is very jarring to see, specially compared to other games like God of War which are incredibly colorful.

 

Alright, played the PC demo, it runs pretty great.

Using 4K, dropping image quality from 100% to 90% (which I suspect is internal rendering res), AA, Rays from max to high and shadows from max to high, I was able to keep what seems locked 60fps at 4K. Pretty good stuff imo.

Leaving everything ON/Max yielded 40-45fps average, with lows of 27 in specific areas. Very small drop in quality to jump to 60fps worth it.

 

This is how RE2 runs of laptop with an Intel i7 8750H and a GTX 1070 8GB.

 

It is my first game of the franchise and i like it alot (gameplay, atmosphere,...). Great way to enjoy this classic horror survival in modern robe. Runs fine with my eGPU 4GB RX570 on Bootcamp Windows 10. Default settings seems to be 1080p on medium. I am pleased with the visuals and it runs absolutly smooth.

 

If enjoy it then you must try RE4.

Thanks for the hint. I am totally hooked and will dive into further episodes!

 

IGN screwed up their review so i wouldn't pay attention to their score.

 

Is it better than the Dreamcast version of Code: Veronica?

 

This game is awesome. It shows how remakes should be done in every way.

 

OK so I am on my Leon 2nd run and I am trying to get to the records room but I am caught between the tyrant and a licker.

If you want to play the game without Mr. X hassling you, this mod has you covered.
