Shit was great until you got on the ship, then it got boring. Also, it would've been better without the supernatural shit.

What supernatural shit? Also welcome to resident evil since you clearly never played one before.

The little girl with black hair was the stupidest idea ever, what they were thinking. The entire game was like a VR spookhouse.

>supernatural shit
>Resident Evil

I'm sorry, were you expecting hillbilly rape?

The ship was the part where the game FINALLY both started to get spooky AND felt like a RE game. Still a totally shit game, aimed at Twitch-staring normies.

It wasn't supernatural, she induces hypnosis and other mind states

Yes

Yeah, and what about molded and Jack's mutations?

I agree with this thread :
Fuck the VR, and fuck "la generic little girl"

>Fuck the VR

Why? did you even play it in VR because if you did you wouldn't be talking shit about it.

>The entire game was like a VR spookhouse.

it was like made a jumpscare simulator and then slapped the RE name on it to make it sell

How did it get more spooky on the boat? There was nothing you haven't seen before, just the same two kinds of molded which didn't bother me back in the house but they got repetetive pretty quickly. Also if you get spooked by a possesed, creepy little girl trope then you gotta be a fucking twelve year old.

I really loved the vibe of the first house though. When I got through the gate to the main hall I was loving every single bit of it. The bizarre fusion of redneck and high culture was just great. The doors and keys, it was great. I only wish that part was longer.

They could've gone all True Detective with it. If you'd get out of the house and you'd get to weird fucked up place like Carcossa. Yeah, wet dream.

>How did it get more spooky on the boat?
No weapons, claustrophobic, dark and messy corridors, and 2-hit licker wannabe molded. After you get a weapon, it's like playing an oldschool RE game again.

The whole hype around the family and the house is ridiculous. Then again, so is the hype around this game in general.

>jumpscare simulator

When theirs only 5 to 8 jump scares in the whole game.
Yeah fuck off mate.

>When theirs only 5 to 8 jump scares in the whole game.

I saw a full let's play. There's more than 8, you memer

How is that any different then the rest of the game?
Your still in a dark creepy shit hole with monsters trying to kill you with limited ammo throughout most of the game.
So what makes the boat so special?

I thought the boat was super lame because it was where I noticed the monsters die instantly when you close a door in their face.

Can you point them all out?

>aimed at Twitch-staring normies.

Explain this sentence.

There was no supernatural you nigger.

Also, the ship part was awesome and the swamp/salt mine was still thematically great, albeit short.

What sucked was the return to the guest house in my opinion. Like The Maw with its underwhelming end fight, but shorter and far more pointless.

>Can you point them all out?

too many to count.

face cameras for "epic" reactions

linear, scripted, "cinematic" bullshit, like so many AAA games nowadays are. Made to be pretty to LOOK at, not so great to play. Zero replay value.

The game has face cameras? Where do you get them?

So... a classic Resident Evil then.

>So what makes the boat so special?
Actual "normal" enemies and relatively high risk of facing them, especially since you do not have your heavy arsenal at hand anymore.

Good thing Resident Evil 1 through 3 weren't scripted and cinematic. Oh wait...

I'll give you that you were hyped for a new Resident Evil game but you got something a whole different. I haven't played any RE before this and I don't even want to but from what I've read and seen I came to a conclusion that this really isn't a Resident Evil kind of game.

If we both stop thinking about it as a Resident Evil game and just take it as a stand alone then you can't tell me the family part was shit. The boat was just a generic fucking gameplay. There wasn't anything special about it whereas back in the house there were things I never have seen in a videogame. It felt fresh, it wasn't perfect but it was something new.

I didn't even feel any tension when I was prying around the boat.

>I saw a full let's play.
And you think your opinion is fucking relevant.

>face cameras for "epic" reactions
What does that even mean?
Most games get facecams now and even then how does this affect the game?

>I haven't played any RE before this
>this really isn't a Resident Evil kind of game

The second I got the machine gun and bombs it felt more like the action side of RE then classic RE I didn't mind it but the boat part didn't feel the closest to classic RE to me.

>The game has face cameras? Where do you get them?

Twitch streamers using face cams.

>And you think your opinion is fucking relevant.
I wasn't going to play this trash. Especially after how shit 6 was.

>Most games get facecams now and even then how does this affect the game?
because this game is basically Five Nights as Freddies with a Resident Evil coat of paint.

So you don't like the game because other people played it and streamed it. How is that the game's fault?

>I haven't played any RE before this
you have no idea how many times I've seen this same exact sentence with so many different new games in the past few years, and how much it infuriates me.

>If we both stop thinking about it as a Resident Evil game
I won't, because it is a RE game. Period.

>you can't tell me the family part was shit.
it was, because it was so fucking predictable, generic, and again ripping off tons of different sources.

>There wasn't anything special about it whereas back in the house there were things I never have seen in a videogame.
Play more games. Seriously mate.

>I didn't even feel any tension when I was prying around the boat.
you got problems.

Because he's a total faggot who thinks he's better then Lets Players.

>The second I got the machine gun and bombs it felt more like the action side of RE then classic RE
It didn't. You people clearly haven't played RE4 and up if this shit counts as the "more action sided" part of the series.

It was literally return to RE2-3 style survival horror; actually killable enemies, that you had to deal with, with limited supplies. Running and evading was still an option, and sometimes recommended even, but you could easily fuck up by getting too cocky.

This game was fucking stupid I was so hyped to get it. Beat it once and and haven't played since. The main selling point of them following u around was a whole 30 min of the whole game if ur not a fuckkng autist and could figure out the simple puzzles. They didn't even fill in plot holes and just decieded to give u dlc u have to wait 3 get months later to actually beat the whole game. And the the cages were stupid as fuck u didn't even need to use the coins at all and the weapon variety was literally 2 useless pistols 2 shotguns a useless flamethrower a grenade launcher and a rifle u get at the end of the fuckkng game

It looks like utter crap, even without twitch streamers

>I wasn't going to play this trash.
I repeat, and you think your opinion is fucking relevant.

>because this game is basically Five Nights as Freddies with a Resident Evil coat of paint
LOL you fucking retard.

You sound like a fucking retard.

Ok, so don't post.

this games just shit and needs the typical montly dlc to try to make it good

You don't know what you're on about. Maybe if you didn't have a massive stick up your ass and you actually played the game and were willing to try out the VR instead of be a butthurt poorfag about the device, you would have seen how awesome the game is.

Is it flawed? Yes. Are you a faggot? Yes.

it's just funny, and a bit uncanny, how ALL current-gen consolikids and shills of their favorite yet terribly mediocre, flawed games ALWAYS end up using the same ""arguments"" in the end:
>You've not played teh gaem!!
>YOU are just a moron!!!

Though I must admit, that pretended rich-fag elitism is a pretty neat new trick.

>t-the game is sooo much better in VR! I swear!
I fail to see how VR would magically make the game's puzzles actually good, bossfights even decent, pacing better, or add any replay value.

What a faggot, if you haven't played any other RE shut the fuck up, finally they made something different after like 2884 RE and faggots like you keeps complaining about a new one

>old woman appears
>try to shoot her
>can't shoot her
>old woman appears later
>try to shoot her
>can't shoot her
>give up and play the game
>BY THE WAY IT WAS THE OLD LADY THE WHOLE TIME
Still mad

You don't see how the VR improves the game probably because you don't care about immersion.

VR improves sense of presence in the game by a lot. 3D objects actually feel 3D in VR, not just renderings on a flat screen in front of you. The ability to physically look around and see the walls, floor, and ceiling around you, tricks your brain into sensing the physical distance of objects in 3D space, and thus makes suspension of disbelief so much greater.

And once your disbelief is suspended, you realize how much creativity and effort was put into the brilliant set pieces and environments, world design, enemy design, etc. Even the molded, which may not look like much, are creepy in VR, and seeing their detailed jaws and weird animations and eclipsing height in VR makes their encounters intimidating. And if you take off all HUD elements, it's even more immersive, and enemies are harder to fight, making the whole game way more fun.

But despite the VR, the game is still fun. The main house, old house, and the ship have a decent amount of exploration. The Jack and Marguerite boss fights are good. And how is the pacing bad?

>replay value
This one is an issue, although I've never really played games in order to REPLAY them... so it doesn't matter to me.

they literally just gave us this game to try and satisfy us until re8 comes out. game sucked dick

RE7 was a bad game that was only made to try and sell VR headsets by making a VR gimmick for a big name name

Nice meme response, you shitter.

not same user but this game was shit and was definitely not a re game

>You don't see how the VR improves the game probably because you don't care about immersion.
Sonny, I'm one of the most easily immersed people on this planet. I literally go into my own zone, get sucked into the game or film I'm enjoying, to the point that people have been calling my name and I've not even realized it.

I'm an old-fag survival horror fan, who played and enjoyed the OG RE and SH games back in the days, and still replay them once in a while.

Easiest way to judge the game's engagement qualities is to rip away its fancy outer shell and gimmicks, such as play with lower settings and in this case without VR. If the game does not hold up and keep you interested & immersed, then it literally only relies on its superficial elements and gimmicks, which RE7 clearly is guilty of.

Assuming you're still the same user as above, the fag who has not played the past games and clearly not too many titles in the horror genre in the first place, you really should widen your horizons and actually try to up your standards. RE7 is such a static, heavily staged fucking game-wannabe, that it might just as well be a on-rails VR movie.

>Assuming you're still the same user as above, the fag who has not played the past games and clearly not too many titles in the horror genre in the first place
I'm not that user. I've played every other RE game including most spinoffs and started the series with Director's Cut, played SH1-3, Alone in the Dark TNN, System Shock 1-2, Dino Crisis, Nosferatu Wrath of Malachi, FEAR 1, Condemned 1-2, Haunting Ground, The Thing, Alien: Isolation, Dead Space 1-3, The Evil Within, several others... there are a lot of horror games I haven't played but I think I've played a good amount.

>Easiest way to judge the game's engagement qualities is to rip away its fancy outer shell and gimmicks, such as play with lower settings and in this case without VR
That is a weird as hell method of seeing if a game holds up. To me, you're taking away things from the game in order to evaluate it. You're barely evaluating the actual game at that point. You have to play at the highest of everything, and even further, play with someone in cases where the game offers multiplayer, if you want to judge what the ultimate (i.e. truest to me) experience is like.

>it might just as well be a on-rails VR movie
I didn't feel this way about it during the main house, old house or ship parts, which makes up roughly 50% of the game altogether.

>bought this with a season pass
what the fuck was I thinking. Shouldve ordered sushi instead

>The average Scottish family

Picture very related.

You sound like a jaded cunt. Ill admit ive naver played the classic re games at release and have only played them recently and i love those games now. But damn was re7 a breath of fresh air in comparison to 5 and 6. Not saying re7 is the fucking best but it certainly had more thought but into it than 5-6 and its appreciating for the classic 3 doesnt feel artifical. But whatever its obvious your too much of a jaded shithead to see that

You're just mad because your first "resident evil" is literally Texas chainsaw massacre ripoff, Soooo spoop, reaction bait for attention whoring youtubers.

Enjoy hearing that stupid Irish guy yelling about shitting potato goo all over his tighty wighties.

Standard Resident Evil monsters. Is this the first one you've played?

Not my first RE at all. See I'm not saying RE7 is flawless or even the best RE. But I still had a great time with the VR.

this game is $30 off should I get it ? I've watched and spoiled alot of the game for myself but I still want to play it. does it have any replayability ?

It has an unockable hard mode with limited saves and arrrange mode style. There are also unlockableable items.

> fun = shill a twitch game
the state of neo RE fans

>"RE7. I need at least 85 on Metacritic."
>"B-but Leon, the game is sh-"
>"Do it NOW! My remake needs money!"

What are you even saying?

Its a great game and I've replayed it three times the second playthrough was on madhouse difficulty that gets unlocked after the first playthrough. and the third playthrough was just getting all the secrets and playing with the infinite ammo and secret chainsaw.
I know a lot of Sup Forums feel RE7 has no replay value but I've honestly replayed this game more then most games that have come out this year.

RE4 is not an RE game.

>played recently the og resident games
>defending re7

>VARIED TASTE? IMPOSSIBLE!
Fuck off.

RE7 is not an RE game.

>Especially after how shit 6 was.
Do it, 7 will make you apologize 6 or something

RE Vendetta is not an RE movie.

Fuck off, Rebecca. You won't be winning the Leon-bowl anytime soon.

>its a bunch of retards using the same debunked buzzwords to shit on RE7 episode

RE7 shitposters are funny as hell...they are too dumb

They both have Resident Evil as their titles and are officially regarded as part of the series. Cry more.

>an resident evil game

What did you mean by this?

And dont give me that bullshit of "reading out" the letters. The letters are supposed to be code, you don't read RE as "are ee" you read it as Resident Evil.

This. I'm a sucker for all RE games/movies. Hell, i like the novels too.

The live action movies can suck my dick though

I think all RE fans can agree that the movies can go suck a fat one.

The first one was okay.

How is this a bad game?

I agree with OP that the ship part was the nadir. Why did we have to go through it twice? Why give us a setting where all the floors look the same when the Baker houses were much more detailed and unique?

Definitely the first half of the game is superior, but overall it was still pretty good.

And the first half felt very similar to REmake, especially the room designs.

I don't get why some of Sup Forums hates this game either.
Frankly after the shit feasts that where RE5 to 6 I'm glad that RE is back to horror again despite its flaws.

It's mostly just a small group of people on here who are overly sensitive to Youtube pop culture and have an issue with anything that feels like it caters to that.

Yeah, it's not AMAZING like some people pout, and it's not my favorite RE, but the haters clearly didn't even give it a chance. There are plenty of parts to this game that got my imagination going just like RE1-3 did. I really liked some of the set designs, how areas looked, the audio design and VA, etc. Even if it was really short and narrow and basically a shooting gallery, I still enjoyed the salt mine for this reason, because I thought some of the rooms were pretty eerie and atmospheric to be in.

Game would've been better if they focused on Clancy trying to escape. Instead, we get Ethan who barely reacts when his hand gets chainsawed.

How to identify a retarded RE7 shill
Defends the game while using one or more of the following buzzwords
>immersive
>atmospheric
>lightning
>VR
>suspension of disbelief
>environments

Liking things I don't like makes that person a shill: the post

>tfw ive never used any of these to defend the game.

But RE7 is the best RE game since RE4.

>suspension of disbelief
wat

Are you asking because you don't know what that is or because you've never seen that used to defend RE7?

Don't all RE game require a suspension of disbelief?
Fuck that. don't ALL games require a suspension of disbelief?
So who is saying that because I have never heard that for almost any game.

They require it, doesn't mean they all do it well, and some people are more sensitive to certain things than others.

You KEK!
