Scary YES
RE Feel (in terms of originals) NO

Feels like PT to me more so than anything.

Just finished. Terrifying. Doesn't feel like Resident Evil, but it's scary as hell.

This is so nice to hear. Oh how I wish I could try this... I kind of like hearing it's not like RE. I was feeling the series needed a restart seeing where it was going... : /

Looks awesome but not a resi style game to me. I love the old resi games but I'm terrified of games like pt. I wouldn't be if I would turn the light on but if your going to do it, do it right for the immersion. I would pee my pants doing it with VR. Not what I was expecting at all.



IMHO it would be much smarter to present this game as a Resident Evil spin-off instead of the official successor of RE6.

If it is a spin-off, people tend to be more open for changes in the gameplay and perspective. Could have saved them from shitstorms of the fans of "Resident Evil (please insert number)", who want the same experience as they favorite game of the series.



game is SCARY! I'm a chicken when it comes to suspense...i pretty much played with my head down whole time.

I'm really getting annoyed at people calling this a "PT rip off" or claiming that it's not Resident Evil. Resident Evil has constantly evolved over the years. Especially the numbered titles which have always been rather experimental. The Revelation games play it save appeal to the fans, mixing the old with the new. The Resident Evil 2 remake will appeal to the classic fans. Umbrella corps will appeal to the fans that likes mercs and the multiplayer aspects of the game. Capcom is offering something for everyone, expanding the horizons of the series. I've been saying it for years. Resident Evil 7 would be a reimagine of the Resident Evil brand and do for the series what RE4 did. Looks like I was right.

Resident Evil VII is indeed a new take, and it IS Resident Evil. It brought back some old memories and I'm having a blast. For those who don't know me. I'm an incredibly hardcore Resident Evil fan and I am more than pleased with what I played.


For the record. The game was in development since 2012. The game likely under went through multiple builds. It was playable as "Project Kitchen" last year at E3, and the game lines up with rumors that game out from a Japanese media firm in 2014. Resident EVII is anything BUT a PT rip off. It's simply a coincidence that both Capcom and Konami had the same idea. Nothing more, and nothing less.
