guns run out of ammo (who would have imagined?) so having a variety of guns is recommended. Also, if the enemy has high evasion or your accuracy is low, choosing a weapon with a higher rate of fire may be more advantageous than having a gun with higher attack. When you attack you can choose to unload on enemy or take a shot at a few enemies to spread the damage.

Also when you’re reloading the clip is leaves you open to attack. Even if your bullet capacity is 5, you can only shoot as many bullets in one turn as your rate of fire. There are a few new elements that you must be aware of, rate of fire and bullet capacity are very important. Usually we would probably choose the weapon with the highest attack but in Parasite Eve that isn’t always the case. There are different elements to consider when choosing a weapon. I thought that using guns would get boring in a Role-Playing-Game but… I was wrong. “Gotta catch them all!” Every other enchantment is worth stacking.

If your gun has Heat or Ice and an enemy is immune, your attack can be 999 but your attacks will still do 1 damage. You may think that giving your weapon with EVERY enhancement (the icons in the rectangles) is a good idea but… I would avoid Random and Heat/Ice. As you chase down Melissa for answers, memories emerge and strange powers are gained as New York is slowly being burned to the ground and monsters run rampant. Melissa, who is mysteriously familiar with who you are, mentions that Aya’s mitochondria need more time to develop. Everyone begins to spontaneously combust.Aya, mysteriously immune to the epidemic, charges the stage, gun drawn, ready to extrapolate some answers, by force if necessary. Everything is going smoothly until the lovely actress, “Melissa Pearce”, showcases her lovely voice. Aya Brea, our lovely protagonist and NYPD rookie, (not as enthusiastic to be on her date as one would think) walks into Carnegie Hall to enjoy the opera. Our story begins in New York City on December, 24, 1997. I’m seriously tearing up right now just reminiscing about the game, so let’s get started! Synopsis 5 minutes into the game and I already knew that it would be one of the best games I would ever play in my life. Oh man… the late 90’s, when the greatest of the great games were released and Parasite Eve is no exception. Genre: Action Role-Playing, Survival Horror
