Was actually looking forward to this game, until I found out that it will be a lame-ass RPG shooter where if you don't level up, it can take over 20 headshots to kill an enemy.
@asnakeneverdies: I don't consider playing as Claire a multiple playthrough. For me, that's part of the main game since you will have entirely new encounters and meet new characters. I'll also have a go as Hunk. Unless you need an A or S ranking to unlock. Then obviously I'll be skipping it.
@asnakeneverdies: Okay. Just as I figured, you play the same game multiple times. I used to do that years ago, but now I just play a game once, and then move onto another game. Although I did play the last DOOM twice in a row, being that it's one of the best shooters of all time.
And since when is Dead Space not a survival horror game? Dead Space 1 & 2 is pretty much Resident Evil in space.
@asnakeneverdies: The more enemies you dispose of in Resident Evil games, the more ammo you will find. This also applies to the Dead Space games. And who says that the fundamental challenge of a Resident Evil game is Time Trial? You're the first person I've ever heard say that. You must be one of those guys that plays the same game over and over again, looking for a new challenge each time. First time playing, I somehow doubt you are rushing through the game. You're taking your time and exploring all the rooms.
@asnakeneverdies: I don't like the lack of ammo, but always mange none-the-less. I'll also be doing a hardcore run. Unless Hardcore mode only unlocks after you finish the game. If that's the case, then I won't be doing it, because I rarely play games twice. One thing I do notice in more recent survival horrors, is the more ammo you use, the more likely your dead enemies will drop ammo. Which is definitely a good thing. I played all the Resident Evil games, and each time, always killed everything.
***EDIT*** Have not played the last Resident Evil game, so not sure if I would be able to kill all the enemies, like I had on the previous titles.
@halikhan: I never play games with cheat codes. I always play on the hardest difficulty because I like a good challenge. Although I don't really find a lack of ammo challenging, as more annoying. But unlimited ammo would make the game ridiculously easy.
