Coming from RE5, that co-op is significantly better because your companion, if AI-controlled, cannot die.

The gameplay/gunplay is actually really good and does some very interesting things in the 3rd person shooter genre.

Wesker wasn't too deep, but at least he had a ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ amount of aura, great voice acting, fun scenes and had a long-lasting feud with our protagonists.
Characters
Players who bring up Characters mostly praise it.
11 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
There’s so much variety in terms of playable characters, weapons, locations, and enemies that, despite its overwhelming length, the game stays fun.
