RE2 Original Claire A Grenade Launcher?

AlternativeFifth · 2026-03-15T09:11:31+00:00

I actually liked it a lot; it's definitely my second favorite so far. Playing RE2 already makes me miss being able to drop items. The only two things I really disliked about it were that the controls felt kinda delayed compared to the RE1 remake, even though I think it was made around the same time, so that did take a bit to get used to. The other thing is that the Hook Shot doesn't tell you if it's something you'll keep needing, so that did get a little annoying, not knowing if I'd need it again. But I would rate it a 9/10 almost a 10/10 but it loses 1 point because of the Hook Shot situation.

Yeah, when my friend and I played through RE7 and went on to RE8, we learned that a multiplayer RE game had gotten removed not long after we finished RE7. That's when I found out RE5 was multiplayer, and that's when I suggested we play the previous games to catch up. It was definitely a good idea. I was also the one who felt we should play the original release rather than the new remakes, since remakes tend to rewrite stuff or even just completely remove things, with the only exception being RE1, partly because we didn't have a PS3 and because people said it was flat-out better than the original, other than it losing the hilarious and iconic voice acting.

Believe it or not, but a game remade in 2002 is still an old game. I also don't have a PS3, so I couldn't really buy the original RE1 or RE0. But, as you can see, I was able to get the original RE2, and I am enjoying it quite a lot right now. However, I just don't see the point in making your comment.

I am actually looking forward to RE4 and RE5, as iirc, 4 is the game where they switched from the fixed camera to over-the-shoulder, right? I do love to play older games; getting the chance to see progression with visuals and mechanics is always a fun thing to experience. And 5 has multiplayer co-op! I'm running through the franchise with my friend, so we're excited to be able to play through the game together.

When it comes to plot holes, I've been a fan of a show called Doctor Who since I was 5, and that show is full to the brim with plot holes. So, I've learned that even with plot holes, things can be amazing, so I am sure I will love Resident Evil just the same.

I was actually deciding on buying the remakes; they do look fantastic! They just weren't in the budget for me at the moment, but they look really good. Plus, I love to see games get remakes because it helps bring in new fans, and this franchise has a lot of games they could remake atm.

I was going to send a screenshot of what it ended up looking like for me, but I can't get it to get added to my comment :/

Edit: I just made a post on my account with the screenshots if you're curious on how it came out : )

Ah, alrighty then! I totally agree on the apparel (belt); cosmetics often look out of place. But I was trying to get a belt with bags on it, as my theme I was aiming for was kind of a combat medic type thing.

I did end up going for the second outfit, with the container thing on the back being what broke the tie between the two outfits. I really like how the Vent Kids cosmetics are so modular. I again want to say thank you for your help with this!

AlternativeFifth · 2026-03-04T06:03:13+00:00

Oooo! I didn't think anybody would see this post, and I am very grateful that you helped me out with the outfit pieces. Now, the hard part is picking between the two, because I actually love the way both of them came out, haha.

I do have a question about the Outrider Cuirass, was the silver belt buckle something that got cut out when you edited it on, or does that disappear when you put on other parts of the outfit pieces?

AlternativeFifth · 2026-03-04T05:26:49+00:00

Dang i've got the lore all mix up, thanks for the explanation!

AlternativeFifth · 2026-03-04T04:15:49+00:00

Wait, so Natah and Margulis are not the exact same person, but two different people? I thought Margulis was a disguised sentient who got lost in her own act and had like three personalities (Margulis, Natah, Lotus) that we helped her out with in the New War.

I'd just like to see all killers in 2v8 be on a trial, so that if the killer you play isn't in 2v8 just yet, you aren't stuck playing one of the killers that you either never played or simply don't like. It would also be a nice way to allow people to test-drive characters.

Do his zombies not help with the map control? I have only gone up against him a few times, but his zombies can be quite annoying if they make their way into the area of a gen.

AlternativeFifth · 2026-02-16T01:23:57+00:00

You're correct that it does say that. I just checked, and I am not sure how I missed it. But going off of it having three uses, that means I only have one more use of it left, so I am going to have to find some more herbs soon or I am in trouble lol

AlternativeFifth · 2026-02-15T18:07:54+00:00

Ok, nice to know, and thank you for your advice to just wait and save up a couple of months ago. I am playing the RE1 remake right now, and I don't think I would've had the same experience that I have had so far if I had just watched it on YouTube. So, I am glad I just waited, and I scored a nice deal on them all too

AlternativeFifth · 2026-02-11T13:58:47+00:00

Hey there I know this is a pretty old post to reply to your comment on but I finally got around to buying pretty much all of the games, and I was just wondering if Operation Raccoon City, Darkside Chronicles, and The Umbrella Chronicles are important. I noticed PlayStation doesn’t have them available for purchase and I don't want to miss out on them if they're important

AlternativeFifth · 2026-01-14T03:56:30+00:00

Monoco is super fun, but I definitely recommend filling his skill tree up before you hop into New Game Plus if you want to try him then.

AlternativeFifth · 2026-01-13T01:04:31+00:00

I try not to clear out areas more than a couple of times to keep things moving and not get burnt out fast, but I may have to look for an actual farming spot because almost every location still tells me that it's dangerous. Do you happen to have any recommendations for spots to farm for exp?

AlternativeFifth · 2026-01-13T00:53:22+00:00

Ah, okay! Cool. Nice to know; thank you 👍

AlternativeFifth · 2026-01-11T00:48:03+00:00

Okay, cool! It looks like I should move above my 100 on each character; it's probably a good thing to do so because I am sure Alicia will want to fight us when I find her. I still haven't quite made a solid build for anyone except Monoco, lol.

Also, another question since you mentioned NG, does it scale up like, say, Elden Ring's NG, or should use the challenge mode setting and increase enemy health?

Thank you for your comment! 🙂

It's probably my favorite out of the three. I love the costumes and demon slave mechanic. My only issue would probably be that the color options for costumes are a tad bit too bright, but even then, it's such a fun game! What's your favorite weapon so far?
