#1 Resident Evil Requiem
4.5

Resource balance was praised for forcing tactical decisions about injectors, ammo, and room-clearing.

Pros: pacing, combat system

Cons: originality

#2 Street Fighter 6
4.5

The Drive Gauge's resource design was praised as a balanced risk-reward system with meaningful consequences.

Pros: accessibility options, combat system

Cons: narrative quality, frame rate stability

#3 Monster Hunter Wilds
4.3

Resource balance was praised in at least one case for quality-of-life touches like reclaiming traps and saving materials.

Pros: combat system, narrative quality

Cons: difficulty balance, endgame content

#4 Dragon’s Dogma 2: Dark Arisen
4.0

Plentiful Rift Crystals, repeatable tokens, and targeted drop boosts help support appraisal and experimentation. Cold protection and cosmetic changes are generally affordable rather than a constant resource burden.

Pros: overall quality, DLC value

Cons: difficulty balance, pacing

#5 Mega Man X: Command Mission
3.2

Weapon Energy creates meaningful choices between immediate attacks and stronger specials. Shared Sub Tanks divide opinion: some like the system, while others find healing too scarce and dependent on Cinnamon.

Pros: combat system, overall quality

Cons: fun factor, narrative quality

#6 Pragmata
3.0

Resource balance has mixed evidence, with currencies and consumables creating strategic tension but sometimes feeling overengineered or grindy.

Pros: combat system, emotional impact

Cons: map and navigation design, platforming precision

#7 Onimusha: Way of the Sword
1.5

The material economy is a weak point for some reviewers: common upgrade resources can be oddly expensive or grindy, and their relationship to the broader progression loop feels less refined...

Pros: combat system, fun factor

Cons: pacing, open-world design
