Um, I just kill them. A couple of shotgun blasts or one grenade round is enough to put them away.

Jill is recommended for all the backtracking you'd have to do as Chris, due to only 6 inventory slots. I don't think that's a fun way to experience the game for the first time. Challenge is a good thing. That's why most people also recommend to play on normal and do the old controls.
So Chris is double bad. Easier and less inventory spots. Also no Barret.
Kill 'em.
Though once you are more familiar with the mansion and where to go any given time, you can actually avoid most of them entirely. The only ones that are really really pain in the ass for me are the ones in east wing stairway.

Yeah, I still prefer playing as Chris though, but it helps that I've played the game way back when it came out.

That's where I got killed both times. Sometimes I can stunlock them with the shotgun, but if it doesn't knock them down I know I'm going to get hit.
If I'm playing a normal game I just use the magnum on them, on knife only game running up those stairs was a pain in the ass. Usually when I come back to the mansion I head to the room with the sliding walls trap first and the stairs are the shortest route, but taking the longer route might be safer overall.
still learning Speedruning in Remake. Its quite hard to run 1:30 in one try. so many things can go wrong. my god.
anyway i was cutting a small doding video. Thats the way to make a Speedrun

wait so Nintendo and their fucking gamecube is the reason Resident Evil went off the rails and became a mindless grind house action series?

REmake is a fantastic game but let's not try to pretend it's any more mentally taxing than RE4 or 5.

its a more sophisticated game than either RE 4 or 5

Only in terms of environmental navigation (including having to plan your route out, which is where pretty much all of REmake's depth is) and, to a lesser extent, resource management (which only really matters on hard). The combat is so shallow and basic compared to RE4 and 5 that it's insane to say REmake is more complex all across the board.

Finished my first Chris playthrough then to find out it was on easy -_- and its still took me 13hours. Urgh.
Is there anything else to do except play as Jill or increase the difficulty? Like a Chris B story?

Yeah but that's why many of us prefer Remake and the other pre RE4 games. I don't care that the combat is shallow as that's not why I play them. The balance changing in 4 was a big loss to some of us as there are way more other options if you want a game to give you good gunplay then there are those that do what Resi did in terms of level design.
My biggest bugbear in modern gaming now is how complex level design has taken a backseat to other priorities.

I'm not knocking you for liking the old style more at all. I can get behind that. I just think it's irritating when people act as though RE4 and 5 are somehow less sophisticated than the previous games in the series.
Asian copy. I was just surprised to see it, and that price too.
Oh, so it's a JP import in Britain? That's still random, unless I'm getting my currency identifiers mixed up.
The Chinese version I believe, unless the Japanese version has English cover + back.
Yeah it is British, works out at $54. They had like 4-5 copies on display.
just finished the no ammo , no save and no health item

save all shotgun ammo and do not use it at all, ever, until
you return to the mansion and you should be perfect for the hunters. Chris is kinda exempt from this since he gets extra shotgun ammo because he doesn't get the grenade launcher and going up against George Trevor with a pistol is stupid.
don't go all over the place, take care of the first hunter when you return, and the two by the stairway and you shouldn't have to deal with any others in the mansion unless you choose to go to certain rooms. AND acid rounds can make short work of them.
when Hunter's jump for their one hit kill you can shoot them out of the air.
You still have to do a bit more.
You need to fill up the fuel canister and return power to the elevator. After a boss fight there's a button you need to press to release an electronic lock in the same room as said boss fight. After that you can go get her.

Alright what gives.
Playing this last night windowed and I had Twitch on my 2nd screen and the game ran like shit. Ok, so I closed Twitch. I'm getting gchat messages and everytime I do it makes the game slow down.
How is the game this bad? Can you only play the game and have nothing else open??

The soundtrack lists "Sigh of Relief" as "music box version," which implies the change was deliberate. I have no idea about the guardhouse theme.
It's entirely possible they just didn't feel like fixing the tracks and pretended they were new versions. Either way, I doubt they'll ever alter them.
Are you sure this is the right thread? AF is mostly irrelevant for a game like this

After playing through Jill for the first time since GameCube, Chris's playthrough is a refreshing harder step up. The completionist in me is chanting 'git gud' too in terms of now knowing the map and puzzles so well.
Like others have said, it really does feel arcade-y multiple runs through, love this game so much.
Even the regular zombies are perfect in this.

Never played the REmake before now. Only the original Director's Cut on PS1.
I must say this is a master piece. Holds up incredibly well over a decade since its original release. Took me a good 10 hours to finish Jill's story. Admittedly a large portion was trying to figure out where next to go and solving puzzles, but never one point where I got tired of it.
RE2 being one of my all time top 5 I really hope Capcom do a remake.
Any sales figures released for this yet?

Capcom reported that this was their "fastest selling" digital title across North America and Europe, which sounds good but without concrete numbers, who knows. I don't want to get my hopes up for REmake 2, but it doesn't seem out of the realm of possibility anymore.
I wrapped up the Invisible Enemies playthrough last week, and I'm just one trophy away from the platinum. Ink is for Squids! I'll probably do that run next weekend in the RE3 Jill costume

I wouldn't be surprised if this ended up selling a similar amount to RE: Revelations 2.
Which from all accounts is a decent game itself.

How funny, I just did exactly that yesterday with Chris on my first time through with him. After reading up on the variability of events concerning Richard and Rebecca, I'll reiterate how much I love this game and how dearly did I miss it.

yeah, at some points I was thinking it looked better than Evil Within. Of course, the inconsistent parts of the game because it has crazy good looking moments too.

I don't have the PC version, but this sounds like what RE4 UHD did to me. Try reducing your settings or go to 30 fps. The game slows down if it drops below 60 fps.
The game have to run on stable 60fps or 30fps. If you set it to 60fps mode but the game, for some reason, can't maintain 60fps, it starts running in slow-mo since all animations and in-game logic are tied to frames per second.

Original B controls are the best imo, can't recommend alternate controls at all.
You'll always take damage when grabbed but you can shake stuff off by wiggling/pressing the analog/dpad quickly.
