I'm not a horror fan, I'm like the furthest thing from a horror fan. It takes a special type of game to hook me in on a genre I'm not a fan of. Resident Evil 2 is one of those games, it isn't really about the jumpscares, even though they are there. Resident Evil's definition of horror is the atmosphere, the fear of the unknown, the worry of not having enough bullets to get through the next enemy. You are very limited, and you have to pick and choose your battles carefully, but it doesn't feel annoying, it feels satisfying when you do get to go wild, when you get through a section that makes your hair stand on end. Not to mention, the soundtrack is amazing, the extra content is great, the costumes are a nice addition, and Leon S Kennedy is hot as hell, even to a lesbian such as me.

This is honestly one of my new favorite games, and if a horror game can do that for me, then it's definitely worth a play.

Honestly, I avoided Life is Strange for the longest time, i knew the big choice at the end, because that's like public knowledge, I never really cared for high school stories, and I also had some friends who had some particularly choice words about it. But when I played it with my best friend earlier this year, everything just sort of clicked. Is it perfect? No, but it has amazing emotional beats, likable characters that you truly care about, an intense mystery to unravel, a genius mechanic in rewinding time, and insanely hard choices to make that will truly question whether you are actually making the right choices or not.

If you were on the fence of playing this game, at least try out the first episode, it's free. If you enjoyed it, go ahead and give the full game a shot, it's worth it, in my opinion.
