[@NyxDiscordia33]

1. The best part about 3:30 is that even if you do escape the stunlock and jump down you're just gonna land right on a specifically-placed bear trap and instantly die 2. The one thing that really gets me about professional is just how FAST everyone is, like I pulled the lever in waste disposal, killed the iron maiden with the RPG and right as it died ashley got grabbed. By time I started heading her direction they had already carried her all the way to the exit. If Ashley got grabbed *at all* she was just gone, genuinely nothing to do about it. Not to mention that the ganados have aimbot on Professional. Any hatchet they throw, bolt they fire, rocket they launch; it WILL hit you. Even if you're moving around and trying to juke them they'll just throw it where you're *going* to be. I've had multiple instances where I'd get pinged by a random hatchet and the stun of that was enough to vacuum me right into another ganado's grab, a fire on the ground, or even a rogue stick of dynamite. Also because their aim is so good one thing that happened a lot is that I would go to blow them up with the RPG only for it to hit the thing they threw at me (even if it came from off screen) and explode right in my face. Even with an infinite rocket launcher that insta-killed pretty much every enemy and every boss I still had a hell of a time getting S with a time around 5-ish hours There's a part of me that really wants the cat ears, but at the same time... I could just upgrade the typewriter to be infinite and that's way less hassle

Yeah, armored Ashley could be taken away if you leave the location at the very moment when enemy didn't drop her yet. Overall, I think cat ears doesn't worth it ) Its relatevely easy to get all bonus weapons - infinite magnum and machine gun is already a win and thats it with Professional. I didn't struggle much with this difficulty itself, cos I started 1st playthrough on Hardcore and knew what to expect - but mobs reaction time is really a challange. Got many Dark Souls flashbacks )

[@neamraven]

Don't fucking compare this absolutely retarded combat system to something like Dark Souls. Dark Souls actually has good, fair, skill based combat with consistent rules and mechanics. RE4R is an abyss of bad decisions and incompetence.

[@CorryWith2rs]

Loving the content bro

[@raccoonofmotivation20]

Essentially it's like dark souls(yes I know the difficulty is overrated) you have to play methodically and pick off a few at a time becuase they designed enemies to gang up and stunlock you if you try and rush

[@SpadeDraco]

Yeah except you're encouraged to speedrun it for unlocks. And the fact that your guns are inadequate peashooters early on also encourages running past shit etc. It's not like Dark Souls. Dark Souls is fair. RE4make Professional is an exercise in reloading saves until RNG favors you.

[@BlueCollarZombie]

I was gonna say, if you’re not going for the unlocks then yeah you can play that way but you gotta speedrun it to get the good stuff.

Professional mode aka stunlock city

[@AstralReaver]

Man once you get the bottomless chicago it feels so good to stunlock the enemies back

[@klemen680]

Pretty much how I got S+, the first couple chapters are a pain, but if you can tough it out to chapter 7 or 8 and get that infinite chicago, it's so nice. Not to mention doing some of the new skips, like using the double door skip to get through the first garador fight, or skipping THE ENTIRE chapter 14 cept for Krauser and one measly camp.

[@capthavic]

Literally went through a perfect run (or as close to one I will ever get) zero saves and feeling really good...only to get fire stunlocked on run back to the boat and died. Couldn't even open inventory to try to heal or do anything. FML v.v

[@TheTrevorFox]

God, it's so true. I did manage S+ on Pro, but after the initial excitement, it just doesn't feel worth it to me. The mode is way too annoying and more of a pain to play than it is a fun challenge

[@user-mv3cg7hi7g]

its like nobody on the development team play tested professional mode new game. if they did they certainly should have thought "why am both taking control of the character so much, while also not making the character invulnerable". poor design. they did so much better in the original and RE5

I have said this many times after many deaths. the goal of pro mode is not to show how much of a badass you are. its to show how efficiently you can be a C O W A R D LMAO

[@Picheal43]

At first it wasn't that bad, and wouldn't really be bad at all if autosaves still occurred. I didn't really have problems until recently when I died to one of the two chainsaw ladies trying to get the crank handle, and had to restart from the merchant a few rooms away. (Mainly my fault for not realizing there was another typewriter but still the saves are too far apart for my liking .)

[@aklu5872]

One thing I found during my professional playthrough is that the SG (or the sentinel nine which is even better) and Blacktail are super broken maxed out with their exclusive upgrades if you play agressive and craft a bunch of stun grenades. along with the wolf tail you'll just be meleeing nonstop because of how much stunning you do to enemies. That and the ashley and striker charm help massively with using less healing and being able to escape from sketchy areas.

[@Gameman5252-e2r]

Does the rocket launcher still one shot bosses? because I'm wondering if it'd be worth it at the end to just sell your upgraded guns and buy the rocket launcher since you don't need them afterwards.

[@BlueCollarZombie]

Yeah the Rocket one shots but you can’t get the last of the unlockables that way. Handcannon requires a new game save on Professional without using *any bonus weapons* and the Cat Ears require an S+ Professional clear on a new save. Rocket’s only available in NG+ so it instantly takes those unlocks away

[@Jared0811Gaming]

If you mean the normal rocket launcher, you can buy one per chapter. Personally I buy two, one for Krauser and one for Saddler on professional if I'm not going the infinite Chicago route. Krauser's quite a bit harder since you can't parry unless it's a perfect parry. There's enough treasure in the game to buy them without having to sell all your weapons. If you're only talking about Saddler specifically, you'd have to save some guns as the launcher only gets you past the first phase of the fight.

[@Kobratero]

@@BlueCollarZombie you mean the infinite launcher, you can get the normal rocket launcher and use it just fine for S+ runs

Oh you'll hate unarmed enemies. Leon can block shovels, axes, scythes, a freaking chainsaw, but is defenseless against a grab. Forget crouching - that will never work as planned. And the amount of damage they do just by touching him...

[@Thencarmona64]

What makes it worse is complaining about it somewhere and everyone who beat it go something like “no you’re just bad” or “just git gud” Edit: I just got S+ on professional. This means that not only am I a better player than you, but I’m also just a better person than you. I am now obligated to degrade, disagree, and criticize your complaints in either a disgraceful manner or without a solution/actual means of help, therefore wasting not only your time, but my own time as well. As your average redditor would say, you are all unskilled organisms and I am simply the best in every single way possible.

[@VersionBest]

Yeah I hate that too. This game on Professional is legit BS. I think they're just boasting that they finally beat it and earned an S+ on Professional.

[@DeadFTP]

​@VersionBest i wish they didn't make leon so... weak. How is it this mfer can get stun locked and staggered so easily. I've had a grandma shove me and leon completely lost his balance and staggered for no reason. You can get stuck in a gang bang of ganados and you can't even shove them back. Just pray and hope you can either Parry or dodge. Also had an instance of getting stun lock by a stun rod ganado after parrying 3 times, tried getting out the way but by the time leon recovers from the stun after parrying, the ganado attacks right away causing me to yet again parry and died from something else Edit: yes it was perfect parrys but due to the stun rod, it can still stun leon after perfect parrying.

To be fair, barging in recklessly and letting yourself be surrounded will get you killed a lot, even in Standard... but I guess you have to do it if you want that S+ Rank... I did Pro S for the Chicago Sweeper, and that's about it for me. The special weapons (Chicago Sweeper, Handcannon and Infinite RL) are better than all the others anyway even with the Cat Ears, as you don't need to reload them.
