My guess is that you won't get to do any fighting in the flashback/videotape segments, only in the present. The Playstation Blog entry claims this trailer is a videotape segment, although I don't know how that makes sense because you can see both of the character's hands on-screen at one point.

Is she wearing a GoPro?

I haven't watched many ghost hunter shows but they do tend to have body mounted cameras because tacticool reasons.

Maybe it's like that VHS segment with the zombies though.

I'm really starting to believe this is the result of some executive reading a memo saying "Resident Evil fans want to see a bit more focus on horror", googling "modern horror games" and telling the dev team to make a Slenderman game set in the resident evil universe that Pewdiepie, Markiplier and all the other youtube screamers can yell at and advertise for.

Do we know anything about it other than the teaser, the demo that supposedly has nothing to do with the game, and that there will be combat? Seems pretty early to call the game our as being garbage.

I mean goons did the same thing with Until Dawn and that got pretty highly praised. And there was Evil Within where a large number of people were convinced it had an unlikable enemy following you through the entire game because that enemy appeared in a stream.

I was with them alright on the first demo, but this doesn't look very good. What's supposed to be tense just comes off as trying too hard, and the scenario is kind of hard to believe. The lady clearly saw her, why is she just walking away? The tension is like, non-existent.

tbh what can anyone expect from a game called Resident Evil at this point in 2016. luckily capcom realized this too so they're remaking RE2 for everyone unable to grasp how much the series has changed in the last decade

Resident Evil 7 should have really been a game about a day in the life of Hunnigan.

You have to balance the stress of being the go between of a large government operation and Leon's insanity:


"You'll have to repeat that Leon, I can't hear you. All this interference sounds like a chainsaw or something . I'm going to tell the tech boys to sort their poo poo out."


"Good news Leon, the BSAA got caught doping again. We're certain to win next weeks inter-agency baseball tournament!"


"What's that Leon, another helicopter? What happened to the last one? .... *sigh* Fine, I'll start filling out the requisition forms."


Green herbs are still in the game but you smoke them in the parking lot just to get through the day.

well

I just got to the castle, the last boss (big dude who turns mutant-y) was the most tense I've been in the game so far. I climbed up the ladder and finally understood why it has tank controls, if I could back peddle away from him it'd be a lot easier but watching him lurch towards you and having to spin around yelling "gently caress god drat leon move" was pretty sweet.

I also heard the game was a lot easier with a mouse and keyboard which for the first hour I didn't believe. Then I got a scoped rifle and realized what they meant because holy moly I'm sniping mad fools

neat game so far, my friend wants me to co op 5 with him afterwards

e: also i finally understand that mega64 skit from a decade ago

giving me major clock tower vibes

Speaking of, how well do the Clock Tower games hold up as enjoyable? I always wanted to play those and never really got a chance to, so figure I might give it a go now.

I mean naturally they'll be dated as gently caress, but I'm asking from a perspective where I've gone back in the last few years and played a lot of PS games. Basically the resident evil series/dino-crisis/silent hill/parasite eve all ended up holding up amazingly and were just as much fun to play as ever. Nostalgia probably smoothed some of the rough edges there, but I also went though the Fear Effect games again and walked away hating them, so who knows.

Only the very first, SNES one is good, ironically enough. That being said, it was legitimately creepy and atmospheric as gently caress. I'd say it holds up.

Don't bother with any of the others.

The first PSX one is good as well.

In any case, they are point and click games so they aren't too dated by the gameplay. Although I remember the PSX one taking forever to get started.

ASK ME ABOUT KISSING A GHOST
They should make a Resident Evil game where you play as a poor Umbrella shmuchk who wakes up one day and goes "Holy poo poo my employers are insane"

You then decide to hand in your two weeks notice just as the next outbreak hits whatever facility you're stationed at and have to make your way out.

Although I can't decide if it would be funnier if as an Umbrella employee he has a pass card that allows him to bypass the stupid puzzles or he has to go through the puzzles and complains the entire way.

Kay Kessler

Personally, I'd like the game to be more like Eternal Darkness. Exploring a house/plantation with no combat, solving puzzles and finding tapes. Playing the tapes is how you play levels, some that are stealth levels, some combat-heavy, and others more puzzle oriented.

Just tried out No Mercy Mercs in RE6 and WOW what a difference! It kinda sucks they didn't up the score requirements get S ranks so it's ridiculously easy but at the same time it's nice not having to play so super slow.

Is No Hope diffculty of the campaign even fun? I really hope it doesn't go the Professional mode of RE5 route where anything will put you into the down state.

I struggle with getting high scores in base Mercs in RE6, I end up wiping everything out before the next 'wave' of enemies can enter the playing field. Endlessly broken combo chains! No Mercy definitely makes it easier to keep a combo going but holy poo poo the crowds can get ridiculous on zombie stages (Urban Chaos in particular goes loving nuts by around 230 kills).

I've only played it in co-op, but I think it's a fun difficulty. Damage taken is indeed high enough to be punishing if you make mistakes, but it's not quite as bad as RE5's "armour is useless" mode.

Should be the character select option, with Easy mode being a supervisor who gets a high-security passcard while Hard mode is just some pleb low-level researcher who has to somehow solve all the Spencer Mansion puzzles backwards to escape.

I'm more intrigued by RE7 than I would've been if it was more over-the-shoulder mob shooting, which was great in 4 and alright in 5 and wearisome by RE6, which I only finished one of the campaigns on.

But I'm also not super excited by that footage so far, I like PT and the demo but I don't know how well that kind of scenario works stretched across hours. Agree with others that, while combat (especially if it's FPS) is pretty low on my priority list it also isn't clear if we'll be collecting weird keys and gems and puzzle stuff like the older games (I assume?) or if it's a pretty environment sneaking game.

Ideally it can recapture my early days with REmake where you are in a house with maybe 5 nasties and you only have 2 bullets and the nasties don't stay out of commission forever. About navigating across space repeatedly and carefully, but without making your family dudes into basically the alien from Isolation and require constant crouch-hiding.
