Gameplay: Resident Evil 2 (1998)

Hey everyone, it’s Kernook here. The Demented Ferrets are finally coming to you today with gameplay of Resident Evil 2. This is a long play run-through of the Clair A/Leon B story.

Resident Evil 2 takes place about two months after the events at the mansion. The surviving S.T.A.R.S. members have done all they can, but the city can’t be saved. It’s come down with a bit of an infestation, and these buggers mean business. No exterminators are going to get rid of this viral mess.

Zombies have overtaken the city. Most of the residents are doomed to die in this hell, but if you’re lucky you’ll survive. You get to play as one of two characters.

The first is Leon Kennedy, a rookie police officer suffering his first day on the job. Today is just not a good day for him at all. The Second is Claire Redfield, a young woman in search of her older brother, Chris Redfield of the first game. To see the full game, you’ll have to play both of them.

Resident Evil 2 (1998): Clair A/Leon B Story.

I’ve done a proper review of the game, so if you want an in depth review, you should really check that out.

As a cursory overview though, if you’ve played a Resident Evil game before, then you know exactly what you’ll find here. There’s puzzle solving and item management galore. You’ll want to conserve ammo since the good bullets and weaponry will always be in short supply.

Zombies run rampant, along with several other monster types. Let’s not forget about our good old friend from hell, “Mr. X” himself.

Honestly, I absolutely love the original Resident Evil 2. It’s not just the horror, it’s the heart. To me that defining factor makes this version of the game the definitive Resident Evil 2 experience. If you call yourself a fan of this series at all, you should play this version at least once.

This has been Kernook of The Demented Ferrets, where stupidity is at its finest and level grinds are par for the course. I’ll see you next time.
