I mean it is still the best way to play RE1, I would never tell anyone getting into the RE series to start off with the PS1 games, that's like saying the best way to get into the Metal Gear Solid series is by playing the NES games first. If this game had the mechanics of RE4 but kept the look, feel, and fixed cameras from RE1 this would have been the best way to play RE1. Whenever this game is trying to do its remake thing it's doing a great job, I love how the mansion looks, I love how perfectly suspenseful the tone is, but the actual game mechanics are just bad, I don't have a problem with tank controls, I have a problem with outdated game design.

I wanna make this perfectly clear I don't hate the RE1 on PS1, I'm extremely grateful for what it's done for the survival horror genre and it's probably one of the most influential games of all time, but it has aged like absolute shit. If we are judging this game as a remake of the original PS1 game then it's a 10/10 no questions asked, BUT it has a lot of problems mostly stemming from the fact that it borrows too much from the original PS1 version. While being a tad long in the tooth campaign wise it's an ultimately satisfying follow-up that solidifies Red Dead as one of the best video game franchises. Overall though this is a masterpiece in storytelling and a very fun game to play. If they didn't keep incorporating these practices this would easily be a 5-star game but I simply can't overlook these issues like for example why do certain animals always despawn when you need them for specific hunting requirements? Why are Horses attracted to trees like goddamn magnets and why is the wanted level system so flawed which seems to plague most of Rock* games, etc. Now as with most Rock* games they always seem to have this habit of self-sabotaging their own games with baffling gameplay decisions. You just enjoy spending hours in that environment with all the little easter eggs to discover and things to do. This actually balances the tragic aspects of the plot effectively with levity and light-hearted moments and doesn't just feel like misery porn. The storytelling is so layered here and it's such a better-written tale of revenge and the cycle of violence than what The Last of Us Part II tried to do. The acting all around is great and really brings the characters to life. It truly fleshes out a lot of them and makes a minor character in the previous game like Dutch van der Linde for instance into one of the most complex antagonists in any video game ever. This is filled with many memorable new side characters and familiar faces from the first Red Dead Redemption. Arthur's story is so cathartic and you yearn for the sections when you're not playing as him. Despite being a man of few words he's so likable and relatable due to the solid writing and charismatic performance of Roger Clark. Going in there was skepticism that the main protagonist wasn't John Marston but I gotta say Arthur Morgan is one of the greatest video game characters of all time. Red Dead Redemption 2 had the near-impossible task of living up to the legacy of its predecessor but it succeeded and then some.
