Resident Evil Revelations 2 - Contemplation
Overview -
'Contemplation' is the second episode in Capcom’s 'Resident Evil Revelations 2'. Unlike most episodic games, the 'Resident Evil Revelations 2' episodes are being released only a week apart.
Video Review
'Revelations 2' looks much the same as it did in the first episode. There are a few new enemies with interesting models, like a giant drill-wielding monstrosity covered in eyeballs. The invisible enemies have a disorienting effect when they are approached, which when combined with Natalia’s urgent shouts, is effective at generating some dread.
Audio Review
The newly introduced supporting characters are voiced adequately, and Pedro is the comic relief. There is not much else to report in this area.
Final Thoughts
'Resident Evil Revelations 2' is making modest progress with 'Contemplation'. The ending in particular makes me feel like we’re getting somewhere. A lot of the persistent 'Resident Evil' issues are still hanging around, but as more of the game becomes visible, more of its merits are surfacing at the same time. So far, so good.
