The Daily Grind grinds|Resident Evil: Requiem no go

Been busy with the daily grind stuff trying to make a paycheck. February was not a good month for me sales wise, which is why I took a vacation, but still ... I'm used to making a certain amount, it didn't happen, and now it's time to grind.

Resident Evil: Requiem. I'm happy people are enjoying this installment of the franchise. I liked Village and Biohazard, but this latest game was a experience in frustration for me. I'm a casual gamer at best. With CTS, my hands don't work the way they should, especially over extended periods of time. I LOVED the recent remakes of the earlier games, but this new game is just not working for me.

Who the FUCK just so happens to have a chainsaw in a hospital? Not the maintenance shed behind the hospital. In the actual hospital. Infected patients just so happen to have a chainsaw where ... in their pocket???? And then you have to shoot the infected welding the chainsaw, then shoot the chainsaw, then some other infected can grab the chainsaw and attack you. And ... and ... if the chainsaw manages to get rammed through the ribcage of one of the infected, they can put Leon in a bearhug and kill him with the chainsaw sticking out of their chest.

I get it that we're already dealing with unrealistic infected attacks in a post-apocalyptic setting, but come on!

It's plain to see I won't be playing Resident Evil: Requiem again. Like I said, glad others are enjoying it, it's not for me.

peace&love
