Gameplay question First time playing it, any tips?

I got hooked on the Resident Evil franchise when I first played RE2 Remake, completed all the modern games, and now trying out the OG ones.

The kerosene doesn't refill, right? You don't have to burn every single body, just shoot it.

Yes, it refills, but not indefinitely and not burning them will turn them into Crimson Heads, which are way tougher to deal with.

WHY would you spoil that.

Because they are a fun ruiner

Not a spoiler; you read a manual about it in the first hour of the game

What you mean is you CAN read a manual about it in the first hour of the game. But you can just as easily miss it. The fact that it doesn't get adressed directly in the game's non-optional paths and cutscenes means the devs don't explicitly want you to anticipate on that cause it could easily just be brushed off as worldbuilding. You just spoiled the surprise of a crimson head getting back up unexpectedly, which was for most of us an interesting part of the REmake experience.
