SANTAN Posted January 22, 2021 Share Posted January 22, 2021 I am very excited for this one. I started on Resi 4 then didn't play again til number 7 but they are some seriously enjoyable games. I loved the feel of 7 and this one seems to be a lot like that in terms of being more cinematic and spooky as opposed to being zombie run and gun. The demo for Village has been released, I'm playing it now and literally screamed like a girl for the first time in years. Anyone else excited for this one or got any thoughts on Resident Evil in general? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SANTAN Posted January 22, 2021 Author Share Posted January 22, 2021 I'm getting too old for this. Just completed the demo and probably took 5 years of my life. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Venti Posted January 23, 2021 Share Posted January 23, 2021 Resi4 is easily in my top 5 games of all time. That bit where the church bell saves you... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 23, 2021 Share Posted January 23, 2021 Most people prefer RE2 & 3 but RE1 is my favourite by far, not played alot of the modern ones. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
accies1874 Posted January 23, 2021 Share Posted January 23, 2021 As good as the first one is, I kind of never want to play it again (although probably will when the new one comes out). The second game's* probably scarier in every traditional sense, but the original's controls, save system and fixed camera made it filled with dread and tension as well as making me feel completely helpless. The seventh is great in so many ways but I got a bit fed up once I reached the boat. *the remake of it 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No idea what made that so effective but it absolutely was. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's the version on PS4 I'm guessing? If I struggled with the better controls, god only knows what it was like originally. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone else excited for this one or got any thoughts on Resident Evil in general? You haven't much missed much in between. Resi 6 is very bad and 5 might be the most racist AAA game ever created. Still want to know who thought the optics of being a white guy shooting feral African villagers was acceptable. If that game came out 5 years later it could've buried the franchise. Village (VIIIage????) looks class though. Not going to make any comments on the big vampire lady for fear of the horny patrol. You can add this to a list of other scary games that I'll be intrigued by and never get further than 45 minutes in like Alien Isolation and Resi 2 Remake. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Homer Thompson Posted January 23, 2021 Share Posted January 23, 2021 (edited) That looks absolutely amazing .... and terrifying at the same time! ETA - the remake of 1 is only £3.99 on Steam Edited January 23, 2021 by Mr X 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ocular Patdown Required Posted April 18, 2021 Share Posted April 18, 2021 Village section demo is out for PS4/PS5 later today I think? Other platforms seem to be getting it later over the 1st-2nd of May 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#Gary Posted April 18, 2021 Share Posted April 18, 2021 I've only ever played one RE and it was 7 and I played it entirely in PSVR. It was a hell of an experience. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ludo*1 Posted April 18, 2021 Share Posted April 18, 2021 RE1-3, it's Remake and CV are the best RE games. RE4 is an amazing action game and brought a new audience, but was the beginning of them going off in a totally different direction. RE5 is probably one of the best co-op games out there, but very dull in solo. RE6 is pish. RE7 was good for the novelty factor but is already aging poorly IMO. RE8 I'm feeling very meh about. Not a massive fan of FP style games tbh. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SANTAN Posted April 23, 2021 Author Share Posted April 23, 2021 I think there is a new demo for this, I'm unsure if you need to have it pre ordered to play or not, I think it might just be early access to the demo if you have it pre ordered, that sounds about right? Considering the game looks a lot closer to 7 than the others I'm not sure I want another demo it would just be spoilers at this point. Pretty sure the game is out in less than a month anyway. Deffo going to get it when it's out. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sonsism Posted May 7, 2021 Share Posted May 7, 2021 I got into the series from 7 and Re2 remake so a fairly new fan - though have went back and played all the mainline titles and a few of the spin offs. Loving Village so far. I’ve just finished the first Lord and it’s already improved on most of the (small) issues I had with 7 - enemy variety and Ethan being a bit boring being the main ones. Tried to avoid spoilers but saw a few reviews that suggest it runs out of steam a little towards the end but you could say that for pretty much any RE game. The ship was the weakest part of 7 but still enjoyable enough for me so I’m staying positive. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
