maybe

It's a solid 8/10

It has secrets, decent amount of weapons (some of which are secrets), scary enemies, awesome boss fights, tense atmosphere, great graphics, good pacing.

Only bad stuff is the final boss fight and a lack of enemy variety, but for the small setting it's alright

>>388881307
7-8/10 game. It was better than anything they've shitted out these several years.

>>388881307
It was an 7/10 game, best Resident Evil they've made since 4 over a decade ago.

It was a fantastic RE game and that's very close to being on par with the classic REs.
Theirs a few things keeping it back from perfection and I hope they can fix these in the next one.

Pre rendered backgrounds will always be superior to a freely moveable camera in these sorts of the games because it allows the developers to set the tone for every specific part of the game and they can design the horror around the limitations of a player's sights.

As for linearity, yes, every RE game has a sequence of events that need to be done in a specific order to beat the game but take REmake for example. The middle section concerns you getting four Death Masks and you can get the items surrounding the masks, do the puzzles and get the masks themselves in any order you want to. RE7 gives you a few choices but the exploration of the first game was far better as the middle section spanned the entire mansion, go to any guide for REmake and they will most likely have different orders for the Death Masks as there are 24 unique ways to collect them.

short game.

Stupid "choice" that makes no sense.

Is SO afraid of being labeled "an action game" by faggot nostalgia fags that your weapons are literally useless.

But despite giving you useless weapons, the game gives you tons of boss fights where you're supposed to shoot and injure things. But your pea shooters never show any real damage so it feels like you waste ammo.

Literally ZERO replay ability.

Say whatever you will about 4, 5, and 6. But I could replay those games over and over and over and over again. They were extremely fun video games. So what if they werent scary or had a ton of back tracking and full of running away from everything?


What went wrong? It listened to the "fans" who wanted the "original" style of Resident Evil. But instead of AT LEAST pleasing them, they tried to go to the middle ground for 4-6 fans. Pleasing literally no one.

Why does everyone forget Madhouse?
Playing Madhouse and normal feel so diffrint it was great.

>>388881307

Too linear and cinematic. The first hours being basicly amnesia/outlast,.due to performance issues i could not complete it, still for very step in the right direction there were one in the wrong.

I wish there were more interesting areas like the haunted house.

>>388883903
>The first hours being basicly amnesia/outlast
I still don't get this compression.
You stealth like two times in the whole game and they last like 5 minutes.

>>388882997
>So?
First person limits what the game can do. You can't push things unless a button prompt comes up, any cinematic moments have to stop the game to happen, unlike in the classics, and it's clearly done in an attempt to drag in nu-horror fans no matter how you look at. A first person RE coincidentally after a bunch of first person horror games.
>So?
Pre-rendered backgrounds look better than the popin trash VII has
>Like most REs?
In the later ones sure, but RE1-3 were certainly not linear. You can get keys and items in different orders making different routes, unlike VII which makes you get the keys in a specific order.
There's also the fact that all the areas in the game are tiny in comparison to previous RE games, leading to a more linear game.
>What is Madhouse
That's the Hard mode, not a second campaign. Arrange mode in RE1 and 2 wasn't an extra campaign. Chris and Jill were different campaigns, as were the AB scenarios and Hunk/Tofu scenarios. VII also lacks extra modes like Mercs, which has been a series staple since RE1 on the Saturn (but it was called Battle Mode back then)
>I liked the birthday
Poorly conveyed puzzle, and the second time around it's just 10 seconds of running back and forth.

>what is DLC

>pretty good length
Horribly short in comparison to prior RE games, and in comparison to the first 3, there is no contest. There's also a lot of poor content, such as the Old House (scripted segment the level), Lucas house (one long hallway), the boat (play through the same area twice for no real reason), and the caves (straight line with a few enemies).
The only slightly good areas it had were ripped from RE1 though and shorter in comparison, those areas being the main house and the guardhouse.

It didn't limit anything your just being over dramatic.

>>388884845

They arent completely wrong. there were spinoffs on the ps1 for example but i absolutely agree, 2 or remake are not to be compared to VII. I think the correct comparisonwould be dead aim

>>388885009
>you hit the same beats everytime.
The order in which you do said beats is not set in stone, I'll once again go back to the Death Masks of REmake which gives you 24 possible ways to get all four of them. The classic RE games have some similarities with Metroidvania progression, not saying they have a lot in common but exploration was still a big part of the games.

>>388884978
Awful opinions on women.

>>388884302
>Poorly conveyed puzzle, and the second time around it's just 10 seconds of running back and forth.
I still liked it.

It was good DLC but I agree it should of been in the main game.
>3, the one with the thing on its arm isn't much different. It's like saying Brad in RE2 was a different enemy type because he was stronger
Ehh I guess, game could of used more monsters but the ones their are effective.

Remember: Resident Evil 3 was the last good Resident Evil.

Everything else has gotten the Call of Duty treatment and is kill fest. Nothing scary or puzzling about the modern Resident Evil games...this thread is just more proof of that.

>>388885009
>the perspective was for VR and it works
For the 1% of people who actually own a PS4 and the VR set as well as have an interest in RE. I'm not spending $500 to replay a game I didn't enjoy again.
Also, it did limit things, as I listed. Cinematic moments like when the dogs jump through the windows can't happen in VII, it'd have to be scripted. If you want to know where I'm getting that, play the Guest House area again and see how scripted that mess was.
>I never had pop in get a better PC.
Why are you talking about VR then? Also, own a PS4, didn't fall for the PC meme because a) the fanbase were cunts and b)why would I buy games I already own for other systems?
>Their really not I love RE2 the most out of the classics and its linear as fuck you hit the same beats everytime.
That's because you develop a strategy unknowingly every time you play it. If you were to play RE1 as Jill, you could go through the mansion in a completely different order to majority of players. In REVII, you're forced to go to the save area, you're forced to go to the garage, you're forced to go to the east second floor. In RE1 as Jill, you can go wherever you want after that first zombie. In RE2 as Leon, you could choose which wing you wanted to go after talking to Marvin.
>Its really not that diffrint then Arranged mode man.
Which is why I said Arrange Mode wasn't a different campaign. Chris and Jill were different campaigns, as were the AB scenarios, the HUNK/Tofu scenarios, Separate Ways, Lost in Nightmares (before you say DLC, it comes packaged with every copy now), and RE6 had 4 different campaigns, and 2 of them were actually pretty good.

>>388885295
>I think the correct comparison would be Dead Aim
Except Dead Aim was thirdperson mixed with first person. It was also good unlike VII

>>388881307
Everything after Margurite

Game was great, intro tone was amazingly spooky.

The choice it gives you near the end was fucking stupid. Go with the objectively superior choice and the game punishes you for it.

Also the way you reencounter a select few character in the end was a bit out there, even for resident evil. They could have handled that closure a little better.

But yeah, solid 8/10, worth a go through.

>>388885673
>the ones their are effective
They do the job, but they feel like placeholder enemies. RE1 had a bunch of enemies, zombies, cerberus, spiders, hunters, tics, the black things in the labs, and the zombies would have different appearances.

>>388885684
You think RE7 is like Call of Duty?

>>388885824

I must be mistaken. Im sure i was thinking of the ps1 first peson resi games. Still, saying 7 is bad is overreacting. It has its moments but is definetly not compareable to 2

>>388885684
>Resident Evil 3 was the last good Resident Evil
I wouldn't say that. I feel it was the last Perfect RE, but some of the ones that followed were good, whether it be for lore, story or gameplay.

REmake came out after RE3, which is not only a perfect RE game it's a perfect game.

>>388885684
2 and 3 were absolute killfests as well. The only game where they don't throw enough supplies at you to kill everything with ease was 1.

>>388886412
>REmake
>perfect RE
Nah. Unpopular opinion, but I find it to be very dull in comparison to RE1. Not even nostalgia talking, I played RE1 for the first time around 5 years ago. The design of REmake is generic gothic horror, and some of the puzzles were weaker (like the portrait puzzle). Its Guardhouse and Return to Mansion areas also feel slightly downgraded

>>388886451
Re0 as well

>>388881963

It wasn't as good as the classics, especially once you realize all the shit areas in the game are only shit because they weren't ripped from the first RE. Every area is smaler than the areas in the classics, and quite a few of them are bad. Lucas House and the Caves are one straight line, the Guest House is a scripted segment played out for an entire area, and the Boat is just dull design wise and boring to play through as you're forced to go through twice.
The main house is just the mansion from RE1 but a lot smaller and more linear. The guardhouse is just the guardhouse from RE1 but less memorable and with less content. They also stole the Caves from RE1 but not the lab for some reason

>>388887156

Oh shit you're right, had the names mixed up. Fuck mia.

What always got me is the people who still, after the game was over, felt like choosing Mia was the right choice. Ignoring everything you learned, you've still got someone who's pretty much the reason you're in that hell hole, and is still lying to your face, versus the innocent that has been nothing but helpful and has watched her whole world go to shit.

And people still chose Mia. Fuck that noise.

>>388881307
A first person shooter that claims it is a mainline Resident Evil sequel, even though it has near zero ties to the universe. That is what went wrong.

One day I'll make an 1 hour long video on YouTube where I release all the truths about this game because I don't even know where to start when people ask me about this game. I'd end up spending the night typing out endless paragraphs that would go to waste since all the 15 year olds here have no attention span. I've done it before. Well thought out posts that maybe get one or two replies. Why? Because I'm right and people would rather call me autistic and ignore my post than actually present an argument.

The same copy/pasted blob enemy throughout the game and not even different variants of one enemy type, they all look the same, while zombies were actually more individual and therefore more atmosphetic, realistic and creepier.

I kind of felt that boss should of been the final boss.
It was the hardest and most cool one.

Too bogged down by having to be VR compatible. And just plain laziness.

>First person view
>Only 3 real enemy types
>Way too many scripted/quick time event loaded sequences
>Gets way too linear after the first house
>Save system holds your hand except on hard which you have to unlock by beating it once
>Boss fights are average at best and mostly shit.
>VHS tapes are just walking simulators.

Thank god it undersold. Capcom will probably throw a tantrum and cancel the remake for 2 as one last fuck you to the true fans.

Aside from the ship level being quite boring, not much. The part with Marguerite was one of the most legitimately distressing and disturbing moments I've ever experienced in a horror game.

unrelated, but source on that pic?

It undersold Capcom's absurd initial sales target. It hit their long-term sales target and sold faster than most games in the series.

4 million by the end of the fiscal year wouldn't have been that absurd if the game was good. Add crappy DLC and week 1 DLC to the list of it's problems.

Fuck off and stop advertising your thread all over the board.

spending hours of your life recording and editing a video just to tell others why they aren't allowed to enjoy a game sounds pretty fucking pathetic dude.

i don't even think re7 was all that great and i might agree with a lot of what you might say, but don't waste your time. you just sound incredibly sad doing shit like this.

Evil Within is better, that's how bad RE7 is.

>>388903243
Not really. My first playthrough on RE7 with VR / no HUD was several times more a stunning experience than TEW was.

>my first playthrough of a game with several hundred dollars worth of peripherals and fiddling in the options was better than one game

>>388885874
i stopped playing at margurite.

not a bad game at all though.

>>388904223
Yeah, it was.

Enemy variety is pretty much the game's one massive standout flaw.

With better enemies the last segments would be significantly improved as well.

I want to start a happy family with Evelyn!

>>388881307
It wasn't like 5 or 6.

NOT A HERO WHEN?

Ethan.. eeeethannn

>>388881307
Not much, it was a solid 7/10. Massive improvement over 5 and 6. It's a step in the right direction and I hope the series continues to improve

You done did it now boy.
