How do you play a Resident Evil Game?

I also like to just stand in certain areas for long periods of time and soak in the music...especially the save room music ( unless I'm playing RE5 ) and try to piece together the storyline in my head so that my brain will except that this new game is a new chapter of the original story I loved so much...no matter how far apart it has become lol.

I shed a tear! So beautiful and true. I do the same thing. ;-; Oh, Save Room music... I love you so.

Hmm, so... First playthrough, I take my time. Explore every nook and cranny, read files and documents twice, etc. I definitely do not rush. Once I'm finished, I go through the game again, still taking my time but not to the same extent as my first playthrough. After that, I usually start aiming for speed-runs, either to earn an epic ranking or unlock the bonus weapons or whatever. Once that's done, I just sit back and enjoy playing through the game as much as I like, to my leisure and to my pace. Occasionally, I challenge myself for personal goals on speed-runs and such.

Take my time first playthru, that means a LOT OF TIME to watch the files, and connections with other games of the series. Then I go for a good Rank to get all the unlockables...

Except Code: Veronica X. That game is just too damn hard for me. I get hurt a lot so eventually I use sprays. Shame on me.

Same as above, and I mean I TAKE MY TIME...those elevator doors you always seem to be waiting for during a boss fight move faster than me lol. I just like to stare at every little detail, from the pictures on the wall to other minor objects in the background. I also like to just stand in certain areas for long periods of time and soak in the music...especially the save room music ( unless I'm playing RE5 ) and try to piece together the storyline in my head so that my brain will except that this new game is a new chapter of the original story I loved so much...no matter how far apart it has become lol.

Likewise, I'll take my time the first playthrough and speedrun in subsequent playthroughs. However, if I wanna challenge myself, I'll hold off from playing for a long while then pick it up again to keep some semblance of horror in hopes that I forget a few things that pop up.

I play it slow and explore on the first time but after the first or second time I like to do speed runs.

Do you take your time and explore?

Beat it the fastest time possible to earn an A Rank or S Rank.

I beat the game first to learn the layout then always get an A rank afterwards when I first played RE2 however I got an A rank on my first playthrough never got a rank lower. I never use first Aid sprays in the following Games.

Resident Evil 1 (Even though theres no rank)
Resident Evil 2 (The Reason why I never like using sprays)
Resident Evil 3
Resident Evil 4 ( I Just sell them)
Resident Evil 5 ( I use them alot in Professional)
Resident Evil CVX
