Parasite Eve 2 will always be a gem to dig out and play on a cold fall/winter night and enjoy the hell out of.Parasite Eve is a 1998 action role-playing horror video game developed and published by Square. The re imagined RE2 now has darkness covering a vast majority of the game which hurts the atmosphere as being able to see your environment is what made these games so immersive. Parasite Eve 2 and RE2 1998 both used lighting according to atmosphere and camera angles to perfection. And yes, I am talking about the RE2 REmake, a great game in its own right but an example of compromising charm for tension. With the classic camera angles gone, we now have OTS, which really works well with open world but detracts from survival horror. Once upon a time in the 1990s' companies like CAPCOM and SquareSoft produced survival horror games which had so much charm in them, this is now gone. This is how you build a survival horror adventure game and this is the key ingredient missing in today's survival horror genre which is tension based and feels straight like a movie. Still, you might not want to avoid battles, as more fighting means more experience, and more power, which you will definitely need as things get incredibly tough in t.ĭefinitely a great game, the combination of RPG with Survival horror adventure worked great. I still remember the huge fat thing with a flame thrower in its mouth. Of course, you can't avoid the bosses, and these battles are suitably long and tough. These battles are not random, in fact you can choose whether or not to fight on a lot of occasions with the use of a handy scanner that warns of enemy infestated areas. In my opinion, this form of combat is far preferable to the static, turn-based encounters of traditional RPGs, and much more exciting. In this game, you face the enemy in real time, and you have to run around avoiding attacks, whilst trying to attack and heal yourself at the same time, or try and stay safe for the few vital seconds it takes to cast a powerful magic spell.

The characters all look and move realistically, even the pet dog Flint! Plus of course, the battle system, which in my opinion is outstanding. Pre-rendered backgrounds ( yes, they are in the style of Resident Evil) look incredible, and the monsters are among the creepiest since Silent Hill. I liked all the characters, especially Aya, and followed the plot with without getting lost nearly all the time! Secondly, the graphics are superb. Firstly the story is absorbing and exciting (always important). I played this before Parasite Eve 1, and was a little lost as regards the background story, but its one of my favourite games. The gameplay is definitely far smoother than the first game, conforming more to the Resident Evil mold and dropping the slow and clunky movement found in the first game.The battle system is also in real-time now, too, muc.

Anyone who's played the Resident Evil or Silent Hill series or any similar survival horror games will feel right at home.
Fans of the first game will likely hate the new controls. From there, the amazing plot (complete with twists, turns, and disturbing undertones) unfolds as you battle hordes of mutant creatures with the usual assortment of guns while progressing through several diverse areas.As for the gameplay, the controls have been changed to resemble that of a typical survival horror game. Aya is now a member of an FBI taskforce known as MIST, which has been created to control and wipe out the population of mutant creatures left over from the New York City incident.
Square apparently listened to the complaints of this second group and made radical changes to the battle system and gameplay, resulting in a top-notch survival horror game.Basically, this game picks up a few years after where the first one left off. The second group is made up of survival horror fans, many of whom found the gameplay and battle system of the first game tedious at best. One group is made up of the RPG fans that loved the first game and typically dislike (and subsequently write bad reviews about) this sequel. Opinions about this game seem to be divided into two groups.
