By now a classic horror!

Dead Space 2 is weird. There's a lot more items, but it doesn't have the weapon filtering system of the remake so there are a lot of junk ammo drops that are just sold for cash, so in practice you don't have as much as you think. There are way more enemies so you need a lot more drops. Dismemberment is more of an afterthought in that game - your lethality and enemy lethality and speed was rammed up to 11, so the single most important factor is getting a stagger on an enemy by any means necessary to stop them from blitzing you, then using dismemberment to finish them off. Or you could just use one of the half a dozen weapons that can kill a necro with a single bodyshot even on zealot.

DS1/DSR are survival horror games, DS2 is an action-horror game. It's almost 2 completely different genres. DSR enemies are designed more to unnerve you and get you to panic and make bad choices wasting resources, but they usually pop out from half a room away so you have time to make a strategic decision. Dead Space 2 enemies either pop out right on top of you or come out from half a room away but sprint towards you like a crackhead, so it's about twitch reflexes. There's a reason why stasis recharges in that game on top of having stasis packs - you are expected to use stasis, frequently multiples times in nearly every 'real' combat encounter (not just random necromorph attempting to jump scare you). Whereas DSR stasis is (at least intended) to be a resource, so you have to weigh whether or not it's worth using one of your charges. In DSR stasis lasts so long it's a 'get out of necromorph free' card, in DS2 it's a 'get the hell off me' button that doesn't usually last long enough to kill a brute/enhanced.

Graphics and gameplay aged great, but DS2 is definitely an early 2000s game with it's use of QTE events frequently and scripted events like the fall from the solar panels.
