Lady Dimitrescu and Safe Rooms
When Mr. X couldn’t enter safe rooms in the Resident Evil 2 remake, it was kind of funny (dumb, but funny). Seeing this occur in Lady Dimitrescu’s case feels weird and not just because Capcom hasn’t found a creative way to circumvent this. First off, it’s her castle and she, along with her daughters, have full authority to go as they please. Second, one of the safe rooms is also The Duke’s room. Yes, he and Dimitrescu were doing business so it makes some sense that he’d have a station there. But why would that stop her from entering the room and just killing Ethan? Gameplay-wise, it’s all well and good but from a horror perspective, it will always be weird to see such hulking, nigh-unstoppable figures stomping outside of a safe room.
