Is "RE2" mainstream?

>> No.7999038

>>7999021
There isn't a single RE outside of Gaiden that's not "mainstream"

>> No.7999543

It sold almost 6 million copies on PS1 alone, 23 years ago when the market was a fraction of what it is now.
It's the very definition of mainstream.

RE4 > 3 > 1 > 2

RE2 is less popular than RE1.

yes, which is part of why the game was dumbed down so much. to appeal to an audience which was catching on to the surprise hit that came before it

Not memeing I prefer the PS1 RE games over 4, the tank controls doesn't bother me much since the level design is so good, RE2 reminds me going through a giant Zelda dungeon with limited resources I was kinda disappointed how linear RE4 was and how much of an action game it is

No, the number is inflated by 9% because the post number skips repeating digits aside from 00.

I always thought it was weird that autoaim is disabled by default in 2. I remember reading somewhere a long time ago that they intended you to use your character's head turning to locate offscreen enemies and aim that way, but I don't know how true that is.

I've been referring to the game's popularity. RE2 is not as popular as 3 or 4

>> No.8002923

>>8002858
RE2 is literally the most popular and highest selling RE game you fucking idiot.

>> No.8003239

>>8002268
Probably because the game is pretty easy even without auto aim.
