The Past/Present/Future puzzle in the Clock Tower and the vaccination synthesis puzzle in the Hospital can go die in a fire.
The hospital puzzle was and is the hard one for me. It still takes me a long time.

I could never solve it someone else had to do it every time and the solution IIRC always seemed to change from one playthrough to the next.
Oh man that is rough. I know I have been though puzzles like that before. But that was an even longer time ago. Must be that some puzzle will always be easy for some and hard for others. At least the puzzles in RE 3 are not pazaak from Knights of the Old Republic games. The computer cheats.

They kept the RE3 credits theme... but reworked with a guitar and softer. It's so nice! I have serious chills, was NOT expecting that!

I've never had an issue with the water treatment puzzle. It's just math.

The clock and ball puzzle in the clock tower, however...

I've never really been bothered by the water treatment puzzle. I think pound for pound RE0 had some of the most irritating puzzles.

The push block, water level puzzle with the rotating thing in the middle is the devil.

Or, if you put the wrong chemical in Rebecca's mixing set, you have to back track to a room in the facility you've probably never been to to get the chemical that has nothing in it of value.

Not knowing how long you'll need the hookshot for and not knowing when to put it down (which is after Billy us taken).

^ Those are just a few of RE0's many bad design choices. The game is one big pile of "just because you could, doesn't mean you should".

I never saw why people hate the water puzzle. I always found it quite cute with those beeps





Why is the Aquacure woman a stripper in RE3MAKE?

Yet again they've ruined one of my fav characters in the series

Once you get an idea of how it works and how you can figure it out the water sample puzzle is adorable and rather fun.

I find it odd that RE3make doesn't have a difficulty mode with randomized pickups.

So, towards the end of Daymare 1998 another very visually striking room makes an appearance. It's the HADES office. Just to give you a hint. The final boss is so obnoxious though. If it was anything like something they wanted for their RE2 remake project I'm a glad that bit at least never got to fruition.
