Resident Evil 3 remake is not bad, it's just not as good as the other remakes and a little short.

The gameplay is very similar to 2 but you get a dodge button. The pacing is decent but the Nemesis encounters are a little disappointing and the game could use another area or an expanded city section.

Jill is the highlight, Carlos is much more interesting than in the original and the story and voice acting is pretty good.

This is one of the best games I've ever played.

It has fun and satisfying combat that can be hard but it gives you all the tools you need and rewards good play. The graphics and sound are fantastic and enhance the survival horror sections.

It has action sequences and bosses and cutscenes that are very well directed with cinematic camera movement and angles.
The story and side characters are much improved compared to the original too, especially Ashley or even the Merchant!

All the different things you do blend very well together and create a super cool experience as you go from a normal shooting section to an action sequence to an Alien Isolation section to Metal Gear Solid boss fight and it all works and makes sense.

Absolutely fantastic remake!

It's a very fun and beautiful action rpg, it strays far from the classic AC games.

-It looks very good. Vibrant colors, islands, temples, mountains, tombs, mythological creatures and areas, there's soooo much to see and do.
-The game is huge which means there are a lot of copy pasted places but there is still a huge amount of detail in many of them. Athens is fantastic as are many other cities and temples.
-Sailing in the sea, going from island to island, singing, fighting pirates and finding treasure was by far my favorite thing in this game. The naval combat is very fun and the closest thing we have to Black Flag. It's more arcade-y but works well enough.
-The mastery system is one of the best mechanics in Odyssey and it allows for insane amounts of customization and min-maxing every stat that exists in the game to make unique builds. There's also many fun to use abilities that move away completely from the more grounded abilities in the old games.
-The cultist mechanic is the closest thing to the Assassin's Creed name and it works well as you find clues to uncover targets to assassinate.
-There are way too many side quests that are uninteresting and way too much useless low quality loot and ? on the map to clear.
-The story is ok with a few epic moments. You also meet many historical figures and debate Socrates.

It has very high highs and not many lows.

-The atmosphere is fantastic. The cities, the pyramids, the temples, the music while walking in the desert or seeing a sandstorm form or encountering a mirage or finding an oasis are all awesome.
-Bayek is a great character. The story build up well initially and has a lot of cool moments later but it's very rushed towards the end leaving you a little unsatisfied.
-Alexandria is my favorite city out of the RPG Assassin's Creed trilogy. The combination of Greek and Egyptian architecture and the recreation of monuments like the Lighthouse is very well done.
-Exploration in this game is fun in general with many other cool cities to visit like Memphis and other Egyptian and Greek cities or Cyrene(with Roman architecture) and of course other things like climbing to the top of the Pyramids or finding the secret entrance inside the Sphinx.
-Combat is fine. It's slow but satisfying. Bayek has a decent amount of tools to help with ranged combat and stealth too. I had fun with it for the most part.
-There are a lot of boring side quests and many ? to clear. The level requirements for some areas are a little off so you have to grind a lot.
-There is a little bit of naval combat but it's mostly forgettable. There is also a decent variety of other side content.

By far the best pirate game.

-The highlight of this game is the naval navigation and combat. It looks great and has a lot of strategic depth. All the different weapons and tools you have are very satisfying to use and you often end up in the middle of epic battles with multiple sides fighting each other.
-What makes the above even better are some of the best weather effects I've seen in a game with massive storms, waterspouts forming and huge waves coming towards you that will create many many memorable moments.
-In the more calm moments you are sailing and singing and visiting various islands for treasure and collectibles. The graphics still hold up with some beautiful areas.
-The story, characters, writing and voice acting are all fantastic, probably the best out of all the AC games. The cities are ok with Havana being the most interesting. The parkour is worse than the previous games but not too bad.
-The worst thing about Black Flag is that there are many missions that follow the eavesdrop/tail/assassinate with the walk --> cutscene --> walk --> cutscene formula like in the previous AC games and they are frustrating and repetitive.

Some good changes, some bad. Overall it's worse than Origins and Odyssey but still enjoyable if you liked those.

-The environments look good but because of the time period the English cities and the Viking settlements are not very impressive to look at or fun to run around or do parkour in.
-The Settlement management is ok, you see it grow over time with many buildings and upgrade it, do some quests and learn about the people.
-The world events are quick sidequests in a specific area that are usually fun and help with immersion. No fetch quests and no filling your quest log with tons of them.
-The game is slow and requires patience to fully enjoy. The story has its moments but it's more like a collection of short stories with many forgettable characters and events and it's too long.
-There's a variety of side content from raids to fishing to mini games and decent variety of enemy types and attack patterns.
-The skill tree is terrible. You can't see it all at once so you waste time looking around to remember where things were, you will also waste a lot of points on stats you don't care about and you can't plan ahead. Basically it's harder to make a specific build and optimize it.
-The loot is also very disappointing. There aren't many weapons or gear to find. Most chests have useless materials and there are literally hundreds of locked door mini-puzzles that are there to waste your time. It took me 50 hours to find a dagger.

This game is one of the best survival horror games. The graphics, lighting, atmosphere and sound design are incredible. Hearing enemies in the distance or Mr. X walking towards you adds to the tension while you run around trying to solve puzzles and progress.

The change to 3rd person camera instead of fixed angles works very well because of the above and really makes you immersed in the game's world.

Leon and Claire's design are awesome in this one and overall the story, characters and voice acting are also improved a lot compared to the original.
