![]() The bad ending paths don’t change the final boss, and there might be minimal story changes at best. There’s no reason not to aim for it either. Considering the bad tank controls and horrible camera, I needed every conceivable advantage I could! And that’s only if you did things a certain way to get the good ending. If I had not eliminated all the enemies despite how tedious it was, I would not be able to get this beauty of a gun along with arguably the best armor in the game. This is only enhanced when you need to grind for money and experience points, as well as practice to get better adjusted to the game.Īnd yes, you will need all that money not just for buying more ammo for specific guns, but also in buying future weapons and armor near the end of the game. So in trying to rectify the mistake of the first game, they somehow managed to repeat the same damn mistake. And simply tanking hits defeats the purpose of a survival horror game. Now some enemies do require strategy, sure, but it’s not much. So rather than a survival horror game, it has turned into simply just tanking hits and you can still win. So how did I beat the game? Well, there’s an exploit that allows you gain all your MP with each upgrade, and since you can heal, this means you can horde a ton of healing items. And this is the better looking version of the fight. Good luck figuring out how to fight here. Let’s take the camera for example due to how it blatantly rips off Resident Evil. With all these tools, you think surviving would be easy, right? Oh hell no! And it’s not because of enemy designs or anything. The game does manage to keep handing you supply trunks to use though, so it isn’t annoying…unless you need to run back to a certain trunk, then yes, it is annoying. This made it harder and harder to know what to keep and use since your inventory is limited. Later in the game, you can even find attachments that can benefit Aya, such as better defense, stronger attack, and much more. ![]() So paying attention to your ammo count is important, though it is incredibly easy to refill later. And yes, you can screw yourself in a fight, because if you run out of ammo somehow and don’t have parasite energy left, you will have no other means of attacking. This includes equipping ammo and other weapons. Your armor also determines how many item you can take with you into a fight, upwards to a maximum of ten items. Like this assault rifle? Okay, how about we add in an electric shock attack for good measure! Not every gun is capable of this, but it’s a neat idea that I wish was expanded. Though I quickly found an exploit when I could upgrade and refill all my MP without using an item.Ĭustomization is one of the few fun moments of Parasite Eve 2, and less broken.Īnd you can customize your loadout, which makes things much better. Then you have Parasite Energy attacks, and the game goes another step further in trying to make you can survive against these tough odds. Choosing which guns to go with in battle did make a difference. It easily looks better than the first game, and guns behave more realistically too. For starters, the presentation mostly works. Let’s talk about some of the good this game does before diving into the bad. But you heard enough of my sob stories not relating to this, so let’s dive into the game itself! I’ll say it right now: Parasite Eve 2 is not a good game. I should note that there will be spoilers later on, and I will do my best to highlight them so you can avoid everything if you only want to know my opinion on the game itself. I have tried for weeks to finish it, but failed miserably. If you saw my tweets a long time ago, you will know that unfortunately the footage I gathered from the Vita TV for Parasite Eve 2 did not work on Adobe Premiere Pro. ![]() Hello and welcome to a text edition of the Smartest Moron. I really hope that sooner or later this masterpiece gets a modern remaster with improved combat.Genre: action role-playing, survival horror Watching them time after time is very frustrating, that's why the best decision is to play Parasite Eve on an emulator where you can save states. The most notable and annoying disadvantage of this game (if you play it on PS1 and not using an emulator) is the unskippable cutscenes. some enemy attacks are too unobvious in terms of dodging, so often it depends purely on your luck if you can evade them. As for the gameplay, I like its realization overall but there are a couple of flaws - e.g. The story is very intriguing, with interesting scientific background and that peculiar athmosphere that is common for games made in Japan. It's very rare to see a JRPG in a non-fantasy setting. The story is very One of the greatest JRPGs of all times and also a very unusual one. One of the greatest JRPGs of all times and also a very unusual one.
