Literally the only thing worse is the Knife isn’t indestructible.

Everything else has been amazing.

There was no topping the original merchant. The best you could hope for was just not fucking it up, and I'd say they at least did that.

I agree with that.

I think it was a balance mechanic. In OG RE4 you could knock someone over and knife them infinitely until death. This eliminates that. Plus you can repair it for cheap at the merchant.

Who is asking for these broken weapon mechanics in modern games? What a miserable mechanic.

Sweet. I'm glad you feel that way.
