Survival Horror isn't my thing, so I'll leave it. I'll check in a month if no one

"You have successfully added 1 item to your GOG account. You can access
all your games in your Owned games section." Thanks. Do I have to play
the first game to understand the second game's story?

Congrats! And naw, watch or read a summary on youtube. I forget if EW2
includes a recap, it might. It took me a little bit to get into the combat,
but stick with it. Quite a good game.

Awww, too slow (I don't own this one? I could have sworn I've played
this...but it isn't showing up on Steam or GOG. Maybe I played it on
console?). But alas, "The code is currently being redeemed by
someone." Well, maybe next time. Have fun with the game, someone! ;-)

And thanks for the offer of the freebie, rms. I'm sure our lurker
would thank you too, if it wasn't for their crippling case of
lurkitis.
