Absolutely loved the game, it’s right up there with RE4 and RE2+3 (which I personally consider a single game with multiple campaigns).
That said, the ending was a bit underwhelming IMO. I tried to avoid spoilers but still got hints here and there which raised my expectations and then I felt like something was missing at the end. When I think of it in a critical way it was all about Leon really, with Grace seemingly being an afterthought to increase tension. The dynamics weren’t as good as Leon and Claire in RE2, for example, but still loved the performances anyway.
Now it’s time to replay 7 and Village before doing a 2nd run of Requiem.
I just finished my first playthrough of the game and I loved every second. I thought it was perfectly paced. Playing as Grace really brought out the classic RE feel, while playing as Leon felt peak RE4. Honestly, this might be an all-timer for me; it is just that good.
I’ve read people on other sites saying that it doesn’t make sense to put Grace in danger when they supposedly need her. But it kind does? A bit?
The bad guys think she’s a successful T-Virus based experiment, and a verifiable constant in the franchise is the fact that extreme stress and trauma causes mutation.
Chances are they fully expect her to either mutate or unlock her latent Spencer-persona through trauma; and if she’s the perfect version of the clones then logically she should be basically impossible to kill by normal methods much like the failed clones or a Wesker-type.
So, her immediate safety was probably not much a concern for Dr Gideon/the other guy.
