If there had been an item box, or even just two more inventory slots, many reviews of this game would have been much more positive.

READ: In what can only be interpreted as an internal competition between Capcom and other companies, Capcom has decided to start adding an invasive DRM to their old games (soon coming to the new ones too). The Enigma DRM's sole function is to prevent players from modding their games, but it also comes with other drawbacks, such as:
- Making performance worse, lowering FPS by between 10 and 15.
- Rendering games unplayable on the Steam Deck.
- Allowing games to randomly crash for no reason.
Capcom needs pushback on this; don't let them get away with it.

The game is superb BUT make sure that you download the item box mod in Nexus first. Otherwise, the game might not be as fun since your backtracking would charge you double the amount of hours, from all the dropping and returning of items, then dropping and returning some more. It's tedious. It's not worth trying to preserve the "authentic" feel of the game by sticking to what was originally designed. Trust me on this one.

All in all, I would highly recommend this to anyone who's trying to get into the franchise and experience the thrill of trying to survive this endless nightmare of cannibalistic zombies, megalomaniac scientists, and a deviously rapacious pharmaceutical.

P.S. Don't start on Hard mode on the first try.
