Resident Evil: Code Veronica (2000)
Best: Improved Creepy Visuals: The jump to the Dreamcast let the developers do more than just pre-rendered backgrounds and also allowed them to add even more detail to character models and levels. The end result is a gorgeous game. Even better, Code Veronica changes up the look of the series, ditching the American streets and houses of the past games for European-inspired Gothic architecture.
Worst: Managing Items And The Difficulty: Code Veronica is probably the hardest game in the series, featuring tough enemies and lots of backtracking for important items. And making this worse is the item management which can really screw you over in this game if you leave something vitally necessary behind and have to go all the way back to get it, assuming you can. It doesn’t make RE:CV unplayable, but it will likely be a roadblock for new players coming to the game in 2023.
