In the police station, for example, you could be pillaging around on the first floor of the building and the Tyrant could be on the third floor, but you'll still feel reverberations and hear loud stomping as he walks about. As the monster stalks you, you will hear its footsteps echo all throughout the current environment you're inhabiting. Sound design plays a large role in why Resident Evil 2's scary moments are as good as they are, but this aspect is also predominantly why the Tyrant instills so much fear. The modern cinematic-style presentation is one of the main reasons behind this added sense of character weight, but the performances I also found to be quite good. You really feel empathy for a variety of different personalities that you come across in the game, which is something I didn't expect as someone who already knows the tale this game is telling front-to-back. One of the things that took me back as I played through this remake was just how well done many of the character moments were. While that silliness is mostly done away with in Resident Evil 2, I think it is for the better.

From dumb quotes like 'Jill Sandwich' and 'Master of Unlocking,' old school RE has always been synonymous with campiness just as much as it has been with jump scares. The old Resident Evil games while beloved, have always been somewhat hokey in their presentation. The story in Resident Evil 2 is, for the most part, identical to what it has always been, but for this remake, Capcom opted to add a few more scenes and locations to the narrative to further enhance it.
