Resident Evil 2 Remake PC Patch Disappoints: Capcom's Ports Simply Aren't Good Enough

Published on

Capcom's new patches for Resident Evil 2 Remake, its sequel and Resident Evil 7 received generally favourable reviews from the DF staff in their console iterations. However, Capcom's approach to PC is lacklustre and disappointing. Alex takes a look at the most demanding of the three games - Resident Evil 2 Remake - and comes away shocked and disappointed by the patch. Why is Capcom treating PC gamers like second-class citizens? If you're not using RT or your GPU doesn't support RT - ie the situation for most users - this is actually a big downgrade.
