There’s a rare kind of magic in Dragon’s Dogma 2’s blend of old-fashioned roleplaying and peak Capcom combat

I wish I could actually play these PS1-style demakes of the latest Resident Evil games
—
by
Rustic Games BR is one of those YouTube channels with a delightfully simple niche: what would X modern game (usually a Resident Evil) look like on the PS1? Their collection of delightful little anachronisms scratches this itch in the dumb nostalgic lizard part of my brain, with their latest creation, a PS1 demake of the…
