>It's been said countless times before but the police station being weird and elaborately designed with puzzles just because the police chief was "eccentric" feels lazy.
Yeah, same shit with Leon driving into work already wearing his uniform. It's a relic from the 1.5 days where they obviously didn't have much time and had to quickly cobble something together, regardless of whether it made sense or not. The zapping system is massively underutilized (especially considering how much it was advertised) and the G-Virus flashback FMV plays from Ada's perspective because they didn't have time to finish her model. I love RE2 and I think it's amazing what they were able to achieve in the limited time they had, but I also think it should have had another few months of development time. Compared to RE2, RE1 feels like a game that achieves everything it sets out to do.
