It’s early and a Friday. Some of us shmoes are at work, pretending to do our jobs, while thinking about RE4.
Seriously, I bought it before leaving for work this morning and now I'm just migrating a to a new switch in the server room before I bounce. That front door is CALLING me!

4/10 schedules are so cool unless you're IT on your extra day off.

It’s an excellent PC version. I’ve got everything maxxed at 4K and it’s barely ever dropped below 70FPS, usually hangs in the low 90s during most gameplay. Seems to even run better than the demo.

And mouse+keyboard = extra fun nailing those head shots left and right. This is such a great remake, updated where it should be while retaining the feel of the original. Also it started dumping snow this morning so I’ll just take this occasion to stay home all cozy next to my space heater PC killing zombies today

In Chapter 3 right now, it's an absolute banger so far. I may not be able to go back to the Original if this level of quality continues.

Considering RE4 original port was garbage, RE5 wasn't as good as RE4, RE6 was hated by everybody, RE7 was a huge tone shift, RE8 was dependent on the success of RE7 success, RE2 is the only competition, and RE3 had a lot of cut content... Not surprising.
