Unironically GOTY

Unironically GOTY.

Would basically have been perfect with better monsters.

Yeah would have preferred something different to mold monsters, the Bakers themselves were pretty on point.

I loved RE7 more then most games this year.
I loved the atmosphere and The Bakers are fucking legendary.

Capcom best not fuck this up by going back to action crap like 6 or 5.
They need to build of what made RE7 so great.

>tfw kids praise RE7 now just because 5-6 were so bad
this is how standards get dropped to rock-bottom levels, mates. RE7 was unbearable cringefest -bad. Shit story, shit cast, shit puzzles, shit bosses, shit map design, zero replay value, and a wave of paid DLC. The game's yet another linear, cinematic, set-piece driven AAA mess.

Was thinking of buying this in the sales, how does this compare with the older RE titles and is the DLC worth the extra cash?

>how does this compare with the older RE titles
it doesn't. It made RE5 seem like a good game to me.
>is the DLC worth it
no. Do not support devs that cannot release full games right off the bat.

I got it for 25 bucks day 1 via CD key store, and I wanted to refund it already less than 2 hours into it. But alas, I couldn't do that since I didn't buy it straight from Steam store, so I had to stick to it.

The only part that feels and plays anything like old RE games is towards the end of the game, when you are NOT in the fucking house any more. But ironically, RE7 shills seem to "hate" that section.

>this compare with the older RE titles
Fourth best RE after 1,2 and 4
>Is the DLC worth it
Yes, it gives the game some much needed meat on the bones.

It is good better then pretty much anything that came after 4.
Its scary fun and has some of the best atmosphere I've seen in years. Plus the stories pretty good and the villains are awesome.
If you can get gold go for it since End of Zoe is a must and Not a hero is free.

The rest of the DLC is fun but you don't really need it to get the full package.

>But ironically, RE7 shills seem to "hate" that section.

Because people are tired of fucking boats and your "set piece" meme is vastly overblown. After the intro it's used sparingly.

Thanks lads, guess I'll just wait for it to go down in price.

>He likes the boat.
Is a shitty open area that important to you?
Despite the fact that it lacks any horror atmosphere you have too many weapons and ammo.
That part is sadly the only bad part of the game and you liking it shows just show shit your taste is.

>this is how standards get dropped to rock-bottom levels, mates. RE7 was unbearable cringefest -bad. Shit story, shit cast, shit puzzles, shit bosses, shit map design, zero replay value, and a wave of paid DLC. The game's yet another linear, cinematic, set-piece driven AAA mess.

Wow look at this cool dude who is most certainly NOT an Actionfag yet despite this he's incredibly angry about RE7, even though he hasn't liked this franchise for over a decade!

>More buzzwords
Pretty much all untrue since RE7 has some of the best bosses and best characters and best stories in the series.
Jack Joe and Lucas are more fun and interesting then half the shitty anime cast of most RE games.
Plus every Jack boss was fucking awesome balancing a good mix of horror and fun action.
You can go suck one because as it stands RE7 is up their as one of the best in the series.

>people hate the boat
way to show that you fags never cared of TRUE RE gameplay.

>Is a shitty open area that important to you?
Yes. It is the root and origin of the fucking series: nonlinear setting that you map out on your own, and start unraveling slowly to gain access to new areas.

>Despite the fact that it lacks any horror atmosphere you have too many weapons and ammo.
What the fuck are you even talking about you dragon loli fag? The ship was THE first area that had any kind of horror atmosphere, with borderline Silent Hill-ish dark + shit gets rusty aesthetics, and them lurking Licker-style Molded patrolling the dark corridors. Not to mention you start off with NO items or weapons, and need to hunt them all down yourself. And when you finally get some gear, it starts to play more like RE2-3 again.

>That part is sadly the only bad part of the game and you liking it shows just show shit your taste is.
Sasuga RE7 nufags.
Everything before and after the ship was absolute shit. The ship is literally, unironically and seriously the ONLY RE-like part in the game, and only oldschool RE-style section in the whole SERIES since 2003.

RE7 faggots are as bad as MGS5 and nu-DOOM babbies. They all have managed nothing but dividing the fanbase more, totally derailing and ruining the series they now think they're fans of.

>Yes. It is the root and origin of the fucking series: nonlinear setting that you map out on your own, and start unraveling slowly to gain access to new areas.

Most of the "true" RE games in the series are quite linear, not that you would know though. Since all you played is probably REmake.

>RE7 faggots are as bad as MGS5 and nu-DOOM babbies. They all have managed nothing but dividing the fanbase more, totally derailing and ruining the series they now think they're fans of.

Yes because most old RE fans totally didn't think RE6 was a steaming pile of shit right?

Get the fuck out of here.

yeah sold like ass as well faggot

I love how you fags cry about how RE is all about being no linear when RE2s whole second half is pretty much just a straight line.
But you don't complain their do you? its ok when 2 does it because that's old.
The boat is boring its not scary or interesting it just a rusty dark shit hole while of the rest of the game had legit personality and atmosphere.
And the second you get a gun witch happens so quickly the game turns into a shooter theirs no worry about ammo or what to bring like earlier in the game.
Your dick sucking love for an open area despite it being shit is pathetic
Its sure as shit an't what made RE great.

>Over 5mil sold
>Sold like ass.

You keep dreaming cunt and no you won't get a game like 6 again

>Look at me! I hate the newer games in the franchise AM I COOL YET?

>Its yet another "Classic fags cry about none linearity, despite most of the old games being pretty damn linear themselves episode.

I'm a RE1-3 fag
I just played RE7 a few days ago and the main impressive gameplay feature of the game is the atmosphere.
It's not scary at all unless you try to take in the atmosphere and "be in" the game, imagining yourself there.
it is a great game, good direction for the RE series.
If RE2 remake was made 1:1 in first person like this, or even better, RE3 because of nemi, I would be an RE fan again.

I played in VR and found it scary as fuck.
I don't know maybe I scare easier.

>zero replayability
But I've played through it four times user.

Very good, DLC isn't worth it though, at least not in my opinion. Some of it was decent fun, some of it wasn't.

>this is how standards get dropped to rock-bottom levels, mates. RE7 was unbearable cringefest -bad. Shit story, shit cast, shit puzzles, shit bosses, shit map design, zero replay value, and a wave of paid DLC. The game's yet another linear, cinematic, set-piece driven AAA mess

Would have been good if it did'nt SUCK BALLS when you left the Baker house.

>best bosses
All generic tentacle monsters that look exactly like the others

Boat was shit but the mines were fine.

>first and second Jack boss fight
>Marguerite spider boss
>Lucas tyrant-like Molded
I don't see that many "generic tentacle monsters" around here, user.

This.
I felt the mines were just fine my only problem is the final boss being shit

c'mon little kid, this game can be beaten in an hour; unironically....you chode.

So can the classics your point?

>best bosses
Maybe the first two Jack bosses are good. Everything else ranges from mediocre to terrible. They just don't have the looks or ferocity of prior bosses.
In terms of looks, they fall to every t-Type monster and the Malformations of G.
In terms of ferocity, the mutated T-103, T-002, Nemesis and every malformation of G beat them.
>best characters
Objectively wrong. Jack doesn't have a character outside of the brief cutscene where he and Ethan talk, and the brief moments in Daughters, and even there, he's generic. Cause the writer's a hack.
Joe is DLC only and his only character trait is the same as one of Chris', that being 'Really cares about his family'. Honestly, he's the best character in the game, but I'd rather have Chris, Claire, Jill or even the massive bore that is Leon.
Lucas is actually interesting, but he only has a few files, barely does anything and dies too early. Should've gotten the Nicholai treatment and have him escape to possibly come back again.
>best stories
Wrong. The main story is generic as hell with little ghost girls ripped from FEAR, wife missing for 3 years, etc., etc.
The DLC doesn't help, most of it complicating the story, Daughters telling us nothing we didn't already know, Not a Hero fucking up the timeline royally with Blue Umbrella shit, and End of Zoe being the only DLC that doesn't fuck everything up or be completely pointless.
>Plus every Jack boss was fucking awesome balancing a good mix of horror and fun action.
That black blob eye boss is complete dogshit though.
>You can go suck one because as it stands RE7 is up their as one of the best in the series.
I'll say this. RE7 is probably the best modern horror game and best FPS horror. It is not one of the best RE games though. Classic RE just destroys it, RE1-3, CV, GS4 and REmake destroying it in all ways Gun Survivor 1 destroying it in the story department. It's better than GS2, 4, 6 the Chronicles games, and maybe 5.

Definitely. I don't even mind killing the boss flinging you around at the end and killing it with the Albert that's thrown to you, I just wanted more of a fight prior to that.

Having a trip immediately invalidates your shit opinion.

Part of me wishes they'd just go back to zombies. I dont mind RE7 and I don't see any reason to shit on it but it does feel like a huge step away from what RE is, be it good or bad. Feels like this game could've just as well have been an original IP.

No it can't, the introduction is too scripted to speedrun past.
NOOOO DELETE THIS NOOOOWWWWWWWWWWWW!

Being a massive faggot immediately invalidates yours

Having a trip means you can filter without enabling him, retard. Thanks a lot.

So you are a massive faggot, but what am I?

RE6 was better than RE7

>implying the fight against Marguerite in the greenhouse wasn't great
Only lackluster boss in the game was the final one. The rest were good.
>implying the Bakers weren't some of the best villains/antagonists next to Wesker
>implying the first story that wasn't laughable wasn't objectively the best
I love classic RE, from its level design, to its invincible and iconic characters, to its campy story, but RE7 did a lot of things very well.

So, anyone knows the reason why Ethan's face is hidden? I've seen it thanks to persistent people, and it's nothing special or in any kind recognizable.

>implying the fight against Marguerite in the greenhouse wasn't great
Not really. If you know what you're doing, she can be taken out relatively quickly and easily.
>Only lackluster boss in the game was the final one. The rest were good.
That final Jack boss in the main game was complete dogshit. Came out of nowhere and they never showed how his mutations got to that point.
>implying the Bakers weren't some of the best villains/antagonists next to Wesker
No, they weren't. They're meme villains on the level of Salazar. Wesker at least had motives and goals (and an actual job). I much prefer antagonists like Nicholai, Brian Irons and the Ashford twins.
>implying the first story that wasn't laughable wasn't objectively the best
It was laughable, because it was extremely generic for an RE story.
Also, we got over the laughable story bar around the time of RE2, where there were multiple human villains and detailed files on what happened, which evolved into RE3 where it shows that not everybody working at Umbrella is evil and that a lot of them are just trying to help people, while Nicholai is working for the BOW development part of Umbrella. RE3 also has a lot of good background story, like the USS soldiers last stand in the Dead Factory and all the story from that fight found in the Dead Factory's backgrounds.
The Outbreak and Gun Survivor games have some good story beats and successfully manage to not fuck up the timeline unlike 7.
Also, REmake makes the first game a lot more serious, and 0 tried to fix the idea that someone just dropped a vial of t-Virus due to overwork, and turned it into a revenge plotline.

I don't agree with anything you said the Marguerite boss fight was one of the scariest fights in the whole series.
Jacks final form was fun and felt like a classic big mutant boss fight I even liked how you could fight him from above or below.
The Bakers themselves are some of the most fun villains this series has had since Wesker and no one even cared about Nicholai or Brian Irons.
RE7s plot also had legit mystery and intrigue for once in a series that was in desperate need of something new Seeing the Bakers going from a normal family to a bunch of crazy monsters was both entertaining and scary and the whole mystery behind why this all happened kept me hooked till the end.

My GOTY as well. This game continues to be the best example of how VR should be utilized to improve games. I'm still impressed by what they were able to accomplish with it.

>the Marguerite boss fight was one of the scariest fights in the whole series.
No. It wasn't. At best, it's gross, the lowest form of horror. Just shoot the roof to knock her down, shoot her twice in the vagina and keep shooting till you have to repeat part 2.
On repeat playthroughs, it becomes easier thanks to the saw and (if you're a massive pussy) infinite ammo.
>Jacks final form was fun and felt like a classic big mutant boss fight I even liked how you could fight him from above or below.
Except it didn't feel deserved. It's like when Alexia turns into the concrete monster thing when fighting Wesker, it just happens.
G-Birkin, T-103 and Nemesis all mutated slowly and you saw each transition. Jack's big mutation comes out of nowhere, and I've seen some people think it was Lucas when he showed up.
The fight is also shit, took the worst thing in boss design, that being 'Shoot the eyes'
>The Bakers themselves are some of the most fun villains this series has had since Wesker
You want a fun villain? Try Sergei or RE4 if you want villains with no actual believable goals or motivations. Hell, the background story of RE4 is Wesker telling Krauser 'Hey, go make what Saddler wants to do possible'.
>no one even cared about Nicholai or Brian Irons.
Surprisingly, a lot of people do. Check out some Resident Evil forums like Project Umbrella, Morpheus, Nicholai, Irons, they're all great.
>RE7s plot also had legit mystery and intrigue for once in a series that was in desperate need of something new
Yeah, like 'Why is young Eveline showing up on a video tape when this tape clearly happened after she became old'.
There is no mystery really. Little girls with black hair spoil it all, only real thing that got uncovered was the fact that Mia worked for some organization, and I didn't care about any of that.
1/2

>Seeing the Bakers going from a normal family to a bunch of crazy monsters was both entertaining and scary
We never saw that happen though. You see normal Jack near the end of the game in the mind conversation and in the Daughters DLC, which came out long after I beat the game 3 times.
>the whole mystery behind why this all happened kept me hooked till the end.
Are you retarded? RE7 follows modern film tropes like an autistic child to a candy bar.
I saw Evelyn on the cover of the game. I thought 'So, there's a little girl with black hair. Clearly she's the main villain and the reason why everything happened'
And when I saw the photo the said E-001 with the old woman on it, and I saw the picture of Mia and Evelyn in the Old House, the dots just connected. Only thing I didn't figure out was that Mia was part of a secret organization or that Blue Umbrella existed, as that came out of nowhere and fucked up the timeline. I knew Umbrella still existed, thanks to the demo and Umbrella Corps, but the Blue Umbrella/Red Umbrella thing is retarded and something the Anderson films did

>Jack doesn't have a character outside of the brief cutscene where he and Ethan talk, and the brief moments in Daughters
The condition of the house and the old house, the notes lying around in it, and the location of the estate all add to the Baker family's character, the opening dinner scene, garage scene and chainsaw fight add to Jack, as well as the scene where he chops your leg off, and the fact that he persists in trying to get everyone back to the house. The existence of Joe also arguably adds a bit to his character and the things Joe says during the final brawl.

Those aren't his character. That's Mold Jack's character. Jack's actual character is found within Joe's dialogue and the cutscenes I mentioned.

The house and old house were already in that condition before Evelyn showed up, save for the butchery in the basement and the bizarre doors Lucas put together. For example, they already had the hole in the floor into the crawlspace connecting to the laundry room. The painting of the Arklay Mountains and their trip there, etc.

Also, the Molded form of the characters is arguably expressing their "shadow" personality, considering they all behave and manifest differently.

Friendly notice to the 6cuck to fuck off, nobody likes you.
