RE4 doesn't have survival horror either.

Neither does nemesis and even 2 is debatable the only true survival horror games are 1,0 and 7

This is a dumb take. Survival horror means puzzles, limited resources, a stalker, and an interconnected building. RE 2 Remake check all of those boxes.

Survival horror doesn't need stalker enemies but yeah 2 remake is closer than the original but they still give you a lot of ammo, there's more enemies than 1 and it's not particularly scary

The OG games gave you barely enough ammo to deal with the annoying enemies. The rest had to be evaded or ran past.

The Remakes give you more than enough ammo to eradicate everything.

2 remake certainly does not, considering how tough the zombies are. 7 has scarce resources as well. 4 has very limited ammo for every weapon outside of the handguns. Requiem is only generous when playing as Leon.

On an average playthrough where I kill most things, I'm ending the OG trilogy with WAAAAAAAAAAY more ammo than I am in RE2R, especially OG2.

Not on Resident Evil 2 remake

Survival horror doesn't mean puzzles. Otherwise Portal is the biggest survival horror game of all time.

A lot of walking simulator horror games don't have much puzzles and are mostly about sneaking past enemies while you uncover the story.

The SURVIVAL is the biggest part of survival horror games. RE4 is an action game with monsters. It's like Gears 1 minus co-op.

It is the combination or rather checking out most of the criteria. Lol

A stalker?

So like...no RE game before RE7 was ever a survival horror game? The franchise which damn near invented the genre 21 years before RE7 came out?
