I guess the following is a hot take but I just don't see it. This game is incredibly polished and beams with love for the original. It's brisk but even on repeat plays I never felt rushed. It's the perfect length (the same as the original roughly). I strongly think that the game presented to us is awesome. A lot of people were just expecting more I guess?

I agree but I think an option minus the multiplayer should have been offered maybe a bit cheaper.

That being said I enjoyed both the original and this one. I just really hope they do merc dlc :jihad:

I can’t believe I’ve only just noticed that the current RE logo is the original (and all sequel PAL region covers) logo from the first game recoloured and squished slightly.

It's about time for my once per decade ban for being a consistently terrible poster.

If that's real I'd assume they are teasing that Chris either dies or is the antagonist.

Does anyone have a screencap of the relyon horror one? Website is dead for me? Need to check if its the same thing a reddit user posted that might be fake with real leaks mixed in.

Edit: got in, its not the reddit fake. This one looks legit.

The alternative is that the Weskers used new Umbrella as a means to get Chris DNA, and this is the Alien Resurrection of the Resident Evil series. It'll appear as if it's hallucinations, but then nope, clones by Wesker. The game ends with Ethan punching a boulder to cause an avalanche, after which he falls unconscious until the snow melts. That's when Ethan looks into the puddle to reveal that he's in fact RE5 roided out Chris, but with Wesker's face and hair. Then he picks up the sunglasses. Roll credits.

Finished my first Nightmare run with an A rank (apparently the requirements for S get more stringent the further up you go in difficulty). Really difficult but I had fun. Some of the changes were hilarious - the gamma that jumps out at you after you climb down the ladder in the fuse maze just about ruined my attempt.

How hard or annoying is REmake on Steam? I know that Jill is the better character, you get 30 saves total on Normal, zombies revive if not burned, and some fucker shows up in New Game + wearing a suicide-vest.

Don't you tell me my business again.
So game arrived today and is great about 90 minutes in. Gonna be bummed when the exploration element goes away like everyone is saying but it's nice to have the exploding barrels and effective head shots back. Keep forgetting I can dodge so working on that. I think I'm gonna dig it.

If it's like the PS4 version, the first time you play you have 3 vague choices that determine game difficulty. It goes Very Easy, Easy and Normal.
Don't be me and pick the middle thinking it's normal, its not.

RE7 spoilers incoming

So uh I beat the game and the Bakers don't make a ton of sense. Why exactly are they doing what they're doing? We were led to believe that the Bakers were creating monsters, but we find out they're just shroom people made by Eveline.

I know she's controlling them and they're her "family", but the actions of the Bakers don't make sense to me now. Is she making them eat entrails? what's with the "Testing Chamber" and "Dissection Room"?


Maybe I'm overthinking it. I haven't played the DLC yet. I really enjoyed RE7 but the last third? Half? is kinda lame compared to the first part.

The DLC makes the game make even less sense.

RE7 is just a badly written game even by Resident Evil standards.

It's pretty baroque and the DLC makes it make less sense, but it's something like Mia and her partner are transporting Eveline under the radar by boat. Eveline breaks containment, infects Mia, kills her partner, and escapes into the bayou, where Jack Baker finds them.

Eveline was bred to be a bioweapon and has a fixation on creating a family for herself, so she infects the Bakers and uses them as ersatz "parents." Zoe never comes fully under her control, however, and Lucas--the "bad seed"--is approached by Eveline's handlers to quietly keep tabs on her. Meanwhile, Eveline is using Jack to abduct people from throughout the area to try to add to the "family," but most of them just end up as Molded.

The slightly odd thing about re: resistance is that it's actually not that hard to get your crates.

The real grind is leveling up your individual favorite survivor/mastermind which is where the rp boosters come in play. Usually it's harder to get crates and get the equipment you want, but you'll be swimming in credits and basically unlock all equipment chests.

You don't want to hammer it. The boss has intentional bits where it delays just long enough to wreck your day if you're mashing.

Yeah, this is why my Nightmare run ended in such misery, it took me a LONG time to learn his patterns and rude little delays.

Just finished this on a 100% collectible, no item box, no healing run. Pretty fun, but I was disappointed at how little you interact with Nemesis other than the boss fights. I feel like Mr. X chased you way more.

I enjoyed the last boss because it genuinely felt like the only boss really designed around the dodge mechanic which made you feel like a complete badass if you mastered it.

I liked all the boss fights! I can see them getting more annoying on harder difficulties, but they pretty much felt right on Hardcore. I was a little annoyed by the third fight, but a lot of that was due to me not realizing I had to shoot the lights on the canister Nemesis is on to stun him. The zombies coming in were also annoying, but they had basically no health so they weren't THAT bad
