Anyone else a little disappointed in the implementation of The Girl in RE9?

To start off, I love the RE9 and consider it one of my favorite RE games. However with how prevalent The Girl was in the Grace focused trailers and marketing it really felt like she’d have bigger importance both story wise and gameplay wise. When you’re done with the intro section in the Rhodes care center you don’t see her in gameplay until you get to the basement. With all the light switches and Zombies that can turn off lights it felt like she was supposed to in Rhodes Care Center more prominently but they changed their minds for whatever reason. The basement section with her also felt a little too easy to avoid her although that could just be a me problem (I haven’t played insanity yet so I don’t know if it’s better in that mode). She also had little impact on the story besides her connection to Emily. Just felt like the trailers made it seem like she’d be more important.
