Playing Code Veronica For The First Time And Quit
I've been playing the older RE games these past few days. I was currently playing Code Veronica, and I was having a decent time for the most part. I got soft locked at the start and restarted and it was fine.
Until I got soft locked again near the end playing as Chris. I have no healing items, Chris is in critical state and I HAVE to go past 2 red Hunters. There's literally nothing I can do, I have enough ammo to kill them, but I'm 1 hit away from death. The hunters are too fast for me to kill them both without getting hit a single time.
I had plenty of healing items, but that God forsaken moth corridor made me use them all up. One of the most hellish areas in the series. Who had the idea of having such a tight corridor with THREE poisonous flying enemies that are hard to hit and can just grab me automatically as I try to run past them and stick a weird slug on my back? And that right in the middle of the area where I have to go back and forth constantly? Terrible design choice.
I also locked myself out of the AK 47, the Magnum AND the Lighter. Why the hell can't I grab the lighter from the dude's dead body? Why does he have to give it to me directly? Makes no sense.
I quit the game, uninstalled it and deleted the save. I can't be bothered with it. The level design and story aren't that good to make it worth starting from 0 and trying to not lock myself again, so I just quit.
Hopefully the probable future Remake will not have these issues.
