You actually can continue, go find the item box in the save room on the first floor. Then deposit some items and be on your way.

edit: or put the shield back, yea haha.

edit2: just realized you're the guy running a pirated copy who asked for melee help, lol.

^ wrong. He needs the arrow and key to get to the box.

Put the shield (emblem) back where you found it. You won't need that for a long time. The gem is also pretty useless right now, but you can't store it yet.

This is all cleverly designed to teach you to manage your inventory and what you pick up.

He doesn't have the arrow or key yet, so he can't access the boxes. He just needs to return the emblem and pick up the arrow, problem solved.

Forget about games like, cod, ac, the new RE games etc. This game is nothing like those, I bet kids are whining about how hard this game is.
But like harry said, just put that emblem back and free up a slot.

You can't get to those rooms / areas without the key yet, that's why. ;)

He doesn't have the arrow key nor he doesn't even own the game.

The last sentence is absurd as hell. I'm playing this game first time and how the hell should I know that I don't need to pick up the diamond. Maybe I need it in the next room. How should someone who play for the first time know about that? Ridiculous and unfriendly design

Agree , it's a bit weird. I don't mind backtracking as much as not being to able to pick up items i need to enter a room where i can just dump it. Playing for first time as well.

You're not supposed to know, that's the point. But you quickly learned that picking up everything filled your inventory and prevented progress. The intro is designed so that there are 8 items to pick up, but only 6-8 inventory slots, to teach you about inventory management.

It's impossible to get stuck. You just need to put the emblem back on the wall to make space for the arrow. That arrow will lead to a key to get to a storage box.

Once you find a storage box, you can store everything you find while exploring and it isn't an issue. There's nothing wrong with picking up the gem either, you'll just store it for later.

It surprises me whenever I hear that first time players grab the blue gem before getting the sword key. I feel like the blue gem is the one puzzle item where the camera angle gets in the way, and even then I wouldn't expect most people to think to push the statue off the ledge right away.

That being said, I am someone that grabbed the blue gem right away. I carried it around for a good chunk of time before finally putting it away on my first run. Now I don't bother with it until I have the armor key.

I do think the blue gem and wooden shield teach you a valuable lesson. I couldn't pick up the arrow because my inventory was full. For most players, I think the decision winds up being to eat an herb. Either way, you learn very quickly that it's better to leave easily accessible items where they are until you need them. Even if you store the gem, you don't actually get it any closer to the key socket than when it was a 5 second walk away from the socket it's meant for to begin with.

The beginning of the game is the roughest. You're still learning the mansion, and you keep finding different pieces of different puzzles, but once you find the sword key, you're just going through the motions. It's why I like RE2 so much more than 2: the police station is bigger and maintains complexity up until you leave.
Y flaco? ya pudiste pasarlo me imagino no?
