I want more of this.

I think the only criticism that I hear all over is in splitting the game into two bits, you could potentially feel like you didn't have enough time with either of them.

The Ringer-Verse

I think that's a bit of a valid argument.

The Ringer-Verse

One of the joys of a lot of Resident Evil games is really feeling like your character abilities are evolving and your weapons are upgrading and you're getting super confident in your build and the way you do things.

And you do get to that with each of these characters here, but not as extensively as in a game that has one sole protagonist, just naturally.

So I think that's the biggest criticism that I have and that I've heard around.

The Ringer-Verse

But I'll tell you one thing that I have no criticisms with is the way that this game looks and runs.

And I'm curious which platform you guys played on

The Ringer-Verse

I heard the Switch 2 port is incredible.

The Ringer-Verse

You played it on Switch 2.

How was it?

The Ringer-Verse
'Resident Evil Requiem' Reactions | Button Mash

I was shocked, to be honest.

There were a handful of times, there are a few certain specific settings that are particularly intensive in this game where I could feel the hardware chugging a little.

The Ringer-Verse

The frame rate probably dipped under 30 frames a second.

The Ringer-Verse
'Resident Evil Requiem' Reactions | Button Mash

But again, that's like less than a handful of times.

The Ringer-Verse
'Resident Evil Requiem' Reactions | Button Mash

And I had, you know, over a dozen moments where I was just like, oh, right, I'm not playing on a PS5.

The Ringer-Verse
'Resident Evil Requiem' Reactions | Button Mash

I forgot.

The Ringer-Verse
'Resident Evil Requiem' Reactions | Button Mash

And there are some moments where you're just like, how is this looking like this on a Switch 2?

The Ringer-Verse
'Resident Evil Requiem' Reactions | Button Mash

There's a little bit.

The Ringer-Verse

You'll notice some artifacting because of the upscaling that's going on.
