I mean, there is not at least 1 or 2 safe rooms to practice the use of the buttons and the controls before facing the dangers and monsters? as the angry videogame nerds says "What the hell where they thinking?".

They were probably thinking RE1 is the 17th highest selling PS1 game - so everyone probably already played it. Let's get straight to the action.
Yeah silly to complain about, getting dropped straight into the action felt awesome. OP should play RE1 first and the RE2 demo disc that came with the Director's Cut version of RE1.
Antes los baits eran creíbles
Alone in the Dark 2 does the same thing.
First game at least gave you a minute or two before dropping an enemy on you if you fail to block the entry points in the attic. The sequel immediately drops you into combat against multiple enemies armed with guns. If you aren't familiar with tank controls and the game's combat system, you are dead. Even if you are, it's still a tough battle.
"survival" games are all like that. better ones don't stick to the ass tank controls or make your MC move like a snail's ass.
I remember gaming magazines giving RE2 a hard time because it was too easy compared to the original.
My 12yo self could finish the game with an A rank every single day. Good times
The more brisk and frantic action is what made it memorable. It was a completely different approach than the first game.
The more bait changes, the more it stays the same
>snowflake meltdown over tank controls
yep, thats a zoomlet
They were thinking that it would be cool for returning players to experience Resident Evil 1's intro in gameplay form and they were right. It's the most adrenaline rushing start sequence of the series.
You don't need to "adapt" to the tank controls. After one dpad input any player is able to tell that they can't strafe, and will therefore make a path accordingly
>Play survival horror
>experiences horror
WOOOOOOOOOOOW
try googling what RTFM means, tardo
How to spot a zoomer post
>Someone is complaining about tank controls in a game from 1998
Zoomer
Oh god, someone might die right at the beginning and lose two seconds of progress.
can we still sue?
Just try again zoomer, that's the point.
RE4 is no different, the village attack is difficult the first time and you even have a chainsaw guy, but it's no issue because you can retry as many times as you want and you ARE supposed to do that.
There are harder filters out there, the garage in Driver 1.
RE4 = TRASH
>RE4 remake = TRASH
Everthings since og 4 = trash
>RE4 is no different,
at least in resident evil 4 you have a lot of time(from the time the character leaves the cops car to the village attack) to learn the controls. In resident evil 2 its literally the first room with enemies.
You could just, you know, try again. It's the beginning of the game so it's not like you're losing any progress. Why are gamers so fricking whiney over the most trivial things
They were probably thinking "Okay, how do we expand on this formula and make it interesting? We already had it take place in a remote forested mansion with a bunch of wacky puzzles, then in a city with slightly more grounded puzzles where you weren't tied down to one location the entire time....More action?"
I seriously do not understand why tank controls are so hard for people to grasp. Do you guys lack the ability to visualize in your mind's eye or something? I have NEVER had trouble with tank controls, even when I was a kid.
AI slop is uncanny valley af
I'd frick that
that's not the worst part. the worst part is not human neck twist and perfectly aligned jacket
they're not hard they're just annoying
why would you choose to implement a worse movement system
>annoying
False. They work perfectly in the space they are used in (fixed camera angles).
Eh, putting the player is an unfamiliar situation and having enemies chase after them has been a common strategy since gaming began as a method of padding out the game length.
What's interesting is that some games will get defended for doing it while others, IIRC, Highlander - Last of the MacLeods will get shit on for doing it.
>Notices how the controls are "tank style" controls.
Remember that this was the start of 3D games so everyone had to learn the how move you character in a 3D space with a d-pad.
>nooo.....what the hell where they thinking? every game must be ''dad, hold my hand while I bing bing wahoo yipee
The tutorial was the first game moron.
>picking the girl on a first playthrough
this is very telling, gay
yeah that's how i remember playing in the 90s. was my first resi so imagine how weird that was. i wish i had this feeling again, i envy you unironically
Shit bait
notice the 2 in the game's title? that means you had a whole game to let you adapt to tank controls. dont skip re1, anons
The second one has better cover.
PAL is much better
Play Director's Cut
yeah you don't want to miss this gem
Another secondary outed.
cope
Director's Cut is fine. The dual shock version is the one with the shitty OST
>Director's Cut is fine. The dual shock version is the one with the shitty OST
This, avoid the dual shock version of re 1.
moron
It makes you feel like you are disoriented from a car crash but forced to figure out your faculties, enforcing the vibe that you will never be safe from the get-go. It's quite genius and fitting for the game, really.
I'd bite her arse too
i still wonder if resident evil's surplus of porn/coomer mods and it starting to bleed into street fighter are the reason why capcom is so against modding now.
the amount of them on the nexus rivals almost any bethesda RPG.
Low quality OP
That was exactly my case back in 2003. I couldn't even figure out how to aim and shoot, got eaten and went to play Star Wars: Jedi Power Battles instead.
Tank controls can eat my ass.
i played silent hill as a child before i touched re2 so i was already accustomed to the learnign curve, i could not imagine re2 being someones first tank control game lol. even to this day i struggle to run away without getting bit once
>i could not imagine re2 being someones first tank control game lol
Millions of people managed it with little difficulty. It's not a hard game by any stretch of the imagination.
People complain about the tank controls so much but if you play the Gamecube version it works quite well with an analogue stick
