Summary

Resident Evil 6 is the ninth video game installment in the Resident Evil series. It continues the struggle against zombies infected by the new highly virulent C-virus. The game uses the same over-the-shoulder view as Resident Evil 4 and Resident Evil 5, however with a new gameplay mechanic that allows players to slowly move while shoot. Players can select between three scenarios featuring multiple characters and intertwined storylines, and within these scenarios both stories and action cross paths. At key moments during the game, up to four players can join together online to tackle a specific situation, with some stages seeing the usual partnerships swapped to further increase the depth of gameplay.

Yes your eyes are not playing tricks... that rating is correct. I'm this game's number 1 fan currently on my third time playing it with my best family member in the whole entire world @Lollo

I will not give you the time of day having to justify why....this is the best Resident evil game ever made. It just simply is.

It's like a whole premiere of all stars. We have the baddie with the back phattie Ada wong in skin TIGHT leather pants we got the baddie with the back and frontal phatties the legend, the Diva icon himself Chris redfield, his over protective twink Piers. The one goth boy jake who hasnt taken any therapy sessions and the baddie with the Frontal phatties Sherry.....................................................................................................................................................................................and leon😐

This isn't a bad game as some call it, but it's definitely a very bad Resident Evil.

They focused more on giving us an action-packed visual show than giving us a good story that had to do with events related to the franchise.

At first, I honestly didn’t expect to enjoy Resident Evil 6. With all the negative talk surrounding it, I figured it would be a mess but then I thought, why not give it a try and see for myself? And man, I was surprised. This game is seriously underrated and doesn’t deserve all the hate it gets.

The gameplay is actually solid. The controls feel tight, there’s a great variety of weapons, and the action sequences are really fun. For its time, it was kinda impressive in terms of gameplay. I played it on PC, and while the graphics are excellent and the lighting looks great, there was one major issue its the shadows. The game is way too dark. The contrast is so high that sometimes you can’t even see what’s happening unless you max out the brightness. That alone made the PC version kinda rough. I’ve seen the newer console versions, and honestly, they look and feel better in that regard.

Story-wise, it’s not amazing, but it’s definitely not bad either. I’d say it’s decent to good. The characters are likable, the events are exciting, and the pacing keeps you hooked. The only real downside is that the game leans way too much into the action side of things. The horror element that Resident Evil is known for takes a big backseat here.

Another thing I noticed is the almost complete lack of puzzles. That classic RE flavor the satisfaction of solving clever puzzles is just not there. It’s really missing that old solving touch.

Yes, the game has co-op multiplayer, but I played it solo, and I still had a great time. I finished Leon’s campaign in about 7 hours, and I genuinely enjoyed it.

Now, when it comes to Resident Evil and the horror vibe that should always be part of the series that was a huge miss here. As a Resident Evil title, it was a step down. But as a standalone action game, it was still pretty good.

I'll stick between 7 - 8 outta 10.
