Lisa is a beast if you aren't careful. That fight over the cliff is awful bit of one wrong move RIP run.

The only things I need to do to complete my trophy collection for REmake on steam are real survivor and invisible enemies. I might attempt real survivor but I am very hesitant about invisibles. Any tips?

Real Survivor is just a tedious affair so be ready to sink some decent time into it and for the love of god don't forget what item is in which box!! Other than that it's easy if you're willing to backtrack all the time and juggle items between storage areas constantly.

Invisible Enemy sounds scarier than it actually is; learn the enemy placements in the standard game and you'll have a huge headstart. Enemies also give their positions away with dust from footsteps and reflective surfaces too. Just save often and it'll be a breeze, especially if playing on Easy.

Are you sure you weren't actually dreaming of playing Dino Crisis? That sounds more like a Dino Crisis dream.

What am I missing with melee attacks in Revelations 1? I've tried at every point that looks like the enemy is staggered but I never get a prompt, is there no prompt, do I just have to guess when I can do one?

stunning enemies in revelations 1 sucked, although i also couldnt use the little circle nub on the 3ds for poo poo. a lot of monsters get staggered by shooting them in the arm too which isnt super intuitive imo

Yeah, for the main enemies you can only melee them when their... tongue thing is hanging out. You do that by shooting both their hands. You can also charge up your melee attacks for extra damage.

So, uh, are all the bosses in Revelations 1 ridiculous bullet sponges you have to fight while constantly getting attacked by 20 other enemies or just the first one?

E: gah I missed the rifle that might have made it easier...

I think that’s the only boss like that. You’ll fight the same type of enemy again later but you’ll have much better weapons/mods by then.

The first one is the sawblade guy in the big promenade, who is a ridiculous bullet sponge because you still have poo poo weapons and comes along with infinite reinforcements of regular enemies who can also be minor bullet sponges because you still have poo poo weapons.

For as kinda bullshit as that fight is, the constant call of "Mayday" before that is probably one of the creepier moments in the game.

The big armoured thing you have to dodge and shoot from behind was kind of eh but only really because I got there with zero green herbs and there's only two in the boss arena.

I'll be honest, as long as they're not just big bullet sponges I'll put up with a fair bit from Resident Evil boss fights.

People are supposed to get hurt by things. It's fucked up to not. It's not good for you.
The first and last bosses are easily the two shittiest parts of Revelations so I wouldn't worry much if you struggled with it, it's universally a pain in the rear end.

Biggest problem with the Rev subseries is enemies not dropping items.

Rev 2 is also abhorrent poo poo that is somehow redeemed by Barry's closing lines at the end of his fourth Chapter.

I stopped playing Rev 2 because of the horrifically bad mouse aiming, which is just emulating controller aiming, and poorly at that. I only got to the part where Barry is in the woods, and I just...I just couldn't do it any more. I should just break down and buy a controller for my PC. The last one I bought was a Nyko Airflow controller...

50 thousand people used to live here. Now, it's the Mushroom Kingdom.
I stopped playing REvelations 2 because for some reason the normal difficulty felt too easy while the Hard Mode felt... too hard. It was really weird when you've played RE4-6 to death on the hardest difficulty mode (and the Evil Within on 1-hit death mode)

It really felt like they didn't quiiite balance the ammo to enemy ratio as well as those games.

Just bite the bullet and buy an Xbox One controller. It's relatively cheap, and it's plug and play, or plug and a little config with so many games that it's definitely worth it.

Edit: /\/\that's what I'm planning. I would like to pick up the PC version of DMC 4 and Bayonetta, and no way would I try that with KB+M

On PC, rather than make actual mouse support, they emulate controller stick aiming instead. When aiming, the screen jitters around like mad and has this bizarre acceleration to it I just haven't been able to get used to. It's the biggest problem people seem to have with the PC port.
