Resident Evil 2 Remake new gameplay featuring the Licker.

And let this remind you all that Resident Evil had way more unique and iconic monsters in its Survival Horror/Pre-RE 4 days because holy shit the Licker has never looked more gnarly then this:

Now I am wondering if they are gonna add more then the RE 2 monsters in this game like the Hunters which never appeared in RE 2 original, because that would be awesome.

Gotta be some way to fuck it.

In all seriousness this is starting to look good. I tend to have really low expectations for remakes thanks to that five year period where "HD remake" got added to every single crappy generation update or half assed goty edition. This on the other hand seems to have solid potential.

I still don't get why they're purposefully playing so bad. Like the player is aiming, has a shot, then deliberately turns away and then shoots. I fear they're making it artificially difficult, thus scary and tense, by deliberately playing bad.
Like 'there's a zombie in front of me and one to my left. Better stand still with only one in sight, shoot him in the chest, put my gun away, turn around, get bit, run, see a monster and put my shotgun away so it can chase me'
Wow, if that's not scripted gameplay to make it look scary, I don't know what is.

Game developers and journalists are notoriously bad at actually playing games.

I honestly wouldn't be surprised if they thought that's how normal players play.

Thank you! I'm glad someone said it.

"Here's how terrifying this game can be if you jerk the ineffectual flashlight around just before the monster attacks and don't clear enemies out before investigating stuff."

The entire RE2 video releases have been terrible. Whoever is playing is either deliberately bad, or as DittyHippy pointed out is just terrible but no one realizes it.

Here's one from MAX_Dood. This was when the demo first launched at E3. He's a guy that knows what the hell he is doing.

I think it's because they're trying to hammer down - in a pretty inept way - the fact that's "return to form" survival horror and not RE6 gung-ho style action. A sort of "this is how hard this game is", which some people see through.
