Scary stuff

So I have been play this for while.

Totally love the game, one of the best Resident Evils I have played. The graphics and SFX set a very tense atmosphere. The graphics in particular are very crisp and it almost looks real. This is true for Baker family and other Humans you meet.

Monsters less look realistic in comparison. Though do give great jump scare. Not sure on their official name but I call the "Venomites", The tall tendrily creatures that the Bakers seem to have are creepy as hell.

The puzzles are you standard Resident Evil fare, which is good and really enjoyable for fans of the older entries in particular.

The boss fights are something else, So far I fought Ma & Pa Baker. These were tough to beat. Using a lot of different attacks to keep you guessing. No QTEs, just good old wits, skill and hoping your ammo does not run out.

I particularly like the story, keeps you guessing and wondering if and how this fits into the rest of Resident Evil universe.

I recommend this to anyone who loves a good scary game. Just maybe don't play before bed.

Kudos

Phoenix's performance is what holds the movie up, it feels realistic, desperate and sad. (2 more)

The cinematography is amazing and Gotham has never been seedier.

The third act of the film is really enjoyable and tense because of how low the stakes are and how well defined the characters are.

It straight up rips off both Taxi Driver and King of Comedy. (2 more)

It spells out the story even though I thought it was pretty obvious what was happening anyway.

Subtlety is absent from the film.

Joker is very original if you're a fan of superhero movies, but a rehash if you've seen the essential scorcesse flicks.

It would have been interesting if they took the story in a different direction and steered away from the King of Comedy Route. They should never have told you that some of the stuff that happens are hallucinations. The flashbacks were not needed at all to spell it out, I found them kinda annoying. To be honest, I don't know how I feel about the Joker's first kills being out of self defense. I like that this joker is quite different to previous interpretations, but what I love about the character is how he defies any sort of morals or logic.
