/vr/ - Retro Games

Parasite Eve 2 is a great game, and you have no idea how great it is if you haven't played the extra difficulty modes.

However calling it a "RE clone" is diminishing it. It's much more than that, it's a hybrid game, an action-adventure game with RPG mechanics and survival horror influence.

Saves are compatible with other emus.
Two solutions:

1) Download another emu, simplest one is pSXfin just to do the disc swap and save
2) Try an older verison of epsxe; disc swapping used to not work with some games in some versions but worked in previous ones

I love PE2.

I use to think that both PE1 and 2 were just as good but each for different reasons.

But last year I replayed PE2 4 times and a half in a row. Really learnt to play and appreciate the game, digged through all the difficulty modes and stuff... What a masterpiece! After that I couldn't even bring myself to replay PE1, it feels so weak and... old in comparison.

I love PE2 so much, last time I played it, I played it 4 times and a half in a row. I just couldn't stop, I played every mode and difficulty setting, and then played half another playthrough to fuck around with the Gunblade.

Let me tell you that if you've only played in normal difficulty, you haven't seen much of the game. The other difficulties are really worth it.
There is one that adds many tough enemies to the game, one which reduces your stats and makes enemies tougher, and one which does both at the same time.
Also there are fun weapons to fuck around with :

There are tank controls and a similar visual/camera system. A couple of puzzles. That's it. PE1 and 2 are not survival horror, PE1 has even less in common with RE.

If you like action games like PE2 on PS1, check out Dino Crisis 2, Vampire Hunter D (turn off autolock when you play that) and Soul Of Tdhe Samuraï. Maybe even Deep Freeze but that one is HARD AS BALLS and really not as good as the others.

>Anyway I'm enjoying Scavenger mod a lot; but except from some tough enemies here and there, which can kill me in 2 hits, it seems easier than Bounty in a way, so far.

Nevermind that.
