I only found the 3 medallions to exit the cop shop yesterday. What percentage of the game have I completed roughly? It's huge

Maybe 20%. Some of the rest might go a bit quicker as you'd be more familiar with the layout of the RPD now, and you do return here for another while (to open new doors/areas). And there's not as much backtracking in some of the later areas you have yet to reach. But yeah, you're still early in the game so far. After a few plays and knowing where to go to get required items, most people can get to the point you're at now in about 15 minutes

Took me about 5 hours

The first bit is definitely the longest, especially on first playthrough. A lot of people's first runs were 6-8 hours. I know on my first playthrough I spent ages in the RPD but when it came to the later areas, I bombed through them quick enough. You become more atuned at not trying to collect everything and knowing when to avoid danger rather than trying to work your way around it.

So long as you're still enjoying it, take as long as you need.

Just finished the game

eh i dunno

Finally completed it as Leon. Is it worth playing as Claire or trying the other game modes or just trade in now while it has decent value

I'd try the other scenario as Clare. It's well worth a go.

Retr0gamer

Finished the second scenario. Still disappointed with the NEST section as felt it was more substantial than the original.

Overall I loved the game, really great remake although there's a slight tinge of disappointment. I'd still highly recommend it but it's now where near the dizzying fun and craziness of Acec Combat 7 which will take an amazing game to knock off my current favourite game of the year list.

Also was really delighted to see the extra modes open up after I finished. Some really substantial extra content there that would normally be DLC in lesser games. Capcom really are great at the moment.

Finished 4th Survivor which was fun to figure out, tried Tofu... noped out of it. I'll play through the other scenarios.

The nest section was actually expanded more with all the bigger plant locations and extra rooms

If you play the original again it’s not as big as you may remember

I watched the review and heard in some forums that if you go through the game for 3-5 times on the high complexity of the available, new and new endings will open. There are those who pass on the speed and can confirm this?

That doesn't sound right. I'd say that you'd be better off looking on Youtube to be honest even if they do exist.

No. I've seen speedrunners get the same endings as everyone else. Leon A, Leon B, Claire A and Claire B, regardless of rank or difficulty.

Retr0gamer

I think this is along the lines of playing as Goro in Mortal Kombat.

Azza

Beating scenario A unlocks the scenario B story-line.

Finishing scenario B with either character has whats referred to as the true ending after a 5th boss battle that does not occur in scenario A.

Completing both scenario A and B once with either or both characters unlocks the 4th Survivor mode which is canon from a main story-line perspective.

Completing the 4th Survivor unlocks the Tofu Survivor a non canon more difficult version of the 4th Survivor, beating Tofu Survivor unlocks 2 more Tofu characters with different weapon load outs to use in the same mode and beating Tofu Survivor with either of those additional characters unlocks 2 more Tofu characters.

The Ghost Survivors mode is 4 small non canon story-lines. The only unlocks in this are 15 cosmetic items and 1 item that rewards infinite ammo when equipped in the Ghost Survivors mode.

Here is a list of unlockables for the main story-line

Mr.Fantastic

Just finished Leon A , first try in 6 hoursish enjoyed it.

Didn't expect it to be so short.

On to Claire B now to get the real ending, memory like a goldfish trying to remember where things are.

mj2017

I'm going to play this again, planning to get S+ Rank on both Leon and Claire.

Greyfox

Playing this again now, definitely my game of the year. This remake is definitely the scariest piece of entertainment in the last decade. Mr x's loud footsteps were actually in the dream I had last night, he's one scary fooker and I don't have enough ammo to waste on slowing him down

I was hiding from him in the clock tower and all I could hear was his footsteps and the sound of doors opening and closing. It filled me with terror knowing he was looking for me and eventually finding me.

JimBurnley

Mr X is one scary ####er. Literally made the hairs stand up on the back of my neck. I read there's some PC mod where they have inserted the IT clown in for Mr X, no way I'm gonna open that video

Think the clock tower is a safe space from him....doesn't make it any less scary when you hear him mooching around outside!

Greyfox

Back in the PlayStation days of RE2 and RE3 nemises I could handle the constant stalker as I had plenty of ammo and I'd cleared rooms of enemies. Running from Mr x just now I ran into the storage room where you get the large cog and forgot there where 2 zombies in there that I didn't think I needed to kill and walking quietly past the lickers is so tense with Mr x close behind

Rob2D

I still think it was a big mistake to put Mr. X in the A senarios. Makes an already short police station even more rushed.

Just started into this tonight. Very impressed so far but only a couple of hours in. Never finished a RE game so hopefully this will be my first.

Do the lickers attack Mr X? Or if zombies get in his way does he take care of them?

Eh, I think he just stomps past them but it's been a while since I've played

I'm near certain he doesn't kill the lickers

Penn

I think I've seen him knock zombies out of the way alright, but don't think he hits lickers.

skerry

Haven't had the pleasure of meeting Mr X yet, I'm hoping he didn't ship with my copy of the game and he's some form of optional DLC

Worst I've came across so far is a Licker which I crept around like a geriatric, presume your only supposed to engage these things if you have to. Great game so far though, just finished the Goddess Statue puzzle.

skerry

Just finished this with Leon. Fantastic game, really enjoyed it. Without spoiling anything, is there much difference in doing a second play through with Claire?
