It is, on the other hand, enthusiastically played out with a straighter face. The voice-acting has certainly improved in the intervening years, and the characters don’t start enthusiastically boasting about the “Ultimate Bio-weapon”, but the plot is still as goofy as it was before. Once it becomes apparent that this was a bad idea, they’re then left looking for a way to escape the city. Far too single-minded for their own good, they decide not to just turn and run and instead head for the police department to look for survivors. Claire Redfield, a college girl looking for her brother, and Leon Kennedy, a police officer going to work for the first time, arrive at Raccoon City and find it overrun by zombies. The remake follows the same plot as the original. RESIDENT EVIL 2 REMAKE UPDATE 2019 FULLIt’s an absolute treat to see the Raccoon City Police Department rendered in full 3D. Yet, here we are, Resident Evil 2 has arrived and it’s time to revisit the Raccoon City Police Department. It felt almost farfetched like something that would doubtlessly get stuck in development hell like the Final Fantasy VII remake. After the Gamecube remake of the first game, I had held on to hope for Capcom to revisit the second one for so long that I almost didn’t believe it when they finally announced it. Yet, I retain a sort of reverence for Resident Evil’s second entry, even after the series diverted into territory I didn’t really care for. My experience in the hobby has taught me all about how games tick, and I’ve gained the confidence that I can conquer modern experiences with, at most, a little persistence. More importantly, however, is that games don’t scare me anymore. The plausible reality of a zombie virus now feels like the soft-science fiction it’s supposed to be. What I once viewed as a thrilling and tantalizing mystery that drove my imagination into dark territory, I can now see as the hilariously campy schlock it is. Things have changed a lot with me since Resident Evil 2 on the N64 was giving me nightmares in grade school.
