I think it is cause it's the 2nd most controversial / divisive main title ( Re6 is the most controversial / divisive one and that game is even more underrated to me. ) and it seems to be considered one of the worst due to its focus on action. Re6 also gets the same criticisms except it gets even more when compared to re5.I wouldn’t exactly call it underrated since it’s still the best selling title in the franchise. I respect it for pushing the story forward and adding many tidbits of information to the origin of Progenitor.
So this is 1st time ı'm saying this but ı never actually beat jill's canon dlcs on veteran and professional difficulties.
Idk how those experiences are in those difficulty modes. I dont like how the weapon stats are fixed in those dlcs either. I wished buying / upgrading stuff was possible just like separate ways and re6's multiple campaigns.
I beat the main story on all difficulties and ı gotta say; the pro is seriously punishing.
Ugh; one hit and you basically " die " . Re4 and re6's hardest difficulties feel more balanced than re5's which feels unnecessarily unforgiving in some areas. Vests dont work that much either; you would still enter dying status with one attack in pro difficulty. I think with all vests; it's possible to " survive " an arrow attack from a town majini's crossbow though.
Qtes are very punishing too; they are randomized and by pressing the wrong button, you basically doom yourself with very high damage.
I played 4 / 5 / 6 with keyboard and mouse and the button prompts in re5 feel more weirder than re4's and re6's.
Despite re6 having unnecessary amount of those things; they feel more comfortable to perform and feel modified for easier success. Especially when compared to re5.
Ndesu boss battle and jill boss battle when wesker leaves come into my mind when it comes to re5's pro qtes.
I think ı beat pro in re5 with infinite ammo for highly powered up weapons. I also remember receiving some help online.
Partner aı is very slow in that difficulty mode.
But anyways; ı want to ask a question.
What are your thoughts on re5's jill dlcs' harder difficulties? How are those experiences in those difficulty modes?
I see. Another thing is the map dont show blobs' locations on pro.Lost in Nightmares gets really intense since the blob executioners move much faster and appear more frequently. The final part before the Wesker fight in the maze takes more strategy and communication with your partner. I’ve never done the higher difficulties with AI.
Desperate Escape on Professional is the hardest thing to do in the game. There’s so much being thrown at you, it’s honestly on par with RE6’s most actiony parts if not more insane. The last part waiting for Doug to arrive has more boss enemies and the assault rifle enemies can down you in a couple bullets. It’s hell but quite fun.
None of the games in the series are that scary anyways.RE5 is NOT scary
