Having played RE0 and 7 back to back for my first time (0 on hard and 7 on normal because you have to unlock Madhouse first), I am absolutely shocked 7 is as loved as it is, when 0 was a much better paced game and just overall more inventive with some actually difficult puzzles (though I really don't understand the logic behind the animal lighter one). RE7 is literally and unironically for people too pussy to play Outlast 1 and 2.

Jack disappears way too soon and didn't really act like a stalker on my playthrough because I was too busy solving puzzles avoiding him, then you get that embarrassing "YOU WANNA PLAY A GAME???" SAW shit. Margie was my favorite boss (but not segment because the shack and bugs were boring), but only because she was a clear rip from [REC], one of my favorite horror movies.

>Save Zoe because I figure she can make more of the cure to help Mia
>Zoe completely disappears from the narrative and Mia is still super important

???

Why did this retarded game even ask me to make a choice?

Also the ammo is way, way, WAY overtuned on Normal. (You can't play Madhouse until you unlock it which I'm not going to because the game sucks) By the end of the game I had over 70 shotgun shells and over 500+ MG rounds. Was the game made for retarded Japanese people who don't play FPS games generally? (Even though the game is pretty American feeling with the constant use of BITCH and the ugly female characters Mia and Zoe)

I can't believe such a mid, runs out of steam piece of shit, "saved da franchise", though I'm not surprised considering what killed the franchise in the first place (RE4)

Shit thread

Shit thread, but you're right.

>what killed the franchise in the first place (RE4)
RE4 saved the franchise after 0 was complete shit. 7 is also bad though.

>>713143581
RE4 didn't even sell well until it was ported to PS2 (Which, RE1 remake and RE0 didn't get the benefit of)

But beyond that, RE4 put the series on a death spiral of trying to please actionfags. 5 not only bootyclaps 4 in sales, but it and 6 are actually competent action games unlike 4

>B-b-but

You can't switch weapons on the fly in RE4. End of.

No one liked RE7 though, it was just a flavour of the week Twitchceleb game.

>I am absolutely shocked 7 is as loved as it is,
Zoomers love it. People who actually like video games hate it. Hide and seek and jumpscares don't make something a good game, even if the genre has the word horror in the title. There's really nothing good about 7.

>>713143989
>Hide and seek and jumpscares don't make something a good game

But they do though. Alien Isolation and Outlast are good.

7 just isn't any good, is 6-8 hours long and doesn't even have a mercenaries mode unless you pay for DLC.

Meanwhile, I could've played a 30 hour version of Alien Isolation because I'd trust the devs to be able to deliver, unlike Crapcom.

>>713143581
FUCK OFF YOU TOOL!

>>713143307 (OP)
RE7 scared the hell out of me and Jack kind of looked like my dad when he was getting chemotherapy, therefore I feel connected a little.

It got a lot of praise before the remakes of the actually good RE games came out and blew it away. 7 is forgotten now.

>>713144128

But they don't.

*Midmakes

Reminder that the only good content in Demake 2 is ghost survivors and most Demake 2 loving zoomers didn't even play it.

RE7 appeals to faggots who enjoy 2000s horror movie remakes. The chainsaw fight is the most Reddit shit imaginable.

I don't like the demakes either but I'd play them over nu-trash like RE7.

They'll always say the atmosphere (even though it sucked) and playing hide and seek with Jack. I've also heard people talk up going into the basement which I genuinely don't get because it felt like every other part of the game. There are tight hallways, it's dark, a few enemies spawn in close quarters. It was the same as everything else.

>>713143307 (OP)
>Save Zoe because I figure she can make more of the cure to help Mia
You're a retard. The game was telling you to make a choice, and you chose wrong.

>>713144836
Fair enough, though Demake 3 is like 7 for not having a mercenaries mode at launch.

>>713144961
Western devs know how to make FPS games, Japanese devs don't. RE6 is without question the longest RE game and it's saved by having quality action, which 7 doesn't and isn't an effective horror game like Isolation, Outlast 1 or 2.

Was RE7 a psyop? Do people have shorter memories? Have they forgotten horror first person games like Outlast and Alien Isolation?

>>713145195
SEGA asked for slop and they got slop, and I wouldn't doubt a lot of the good people that made Isolation have left.

Btw I'd like to see those incompetent crapcom devs try to put RE7 on ancient hardware like the Isolation devs did.

RE7 is the worst Resident Evil game and people who claim to like it are complete retards imo. Also factually. You didn't explain it very well but mechanically RE7 has nothing; it's a game designed for girl gamers who are less interested in the mechanics than the perception

Additionally, giving Ethan mold limb regenerating powers is a terrible narrative cop out. You can submit him to any kind of body horror, and it's fine after he splashes some serum on the gore. Fucking stupid.

>>713145426
It's an FPS game with weighty feeling character and a guard button (which you really don't have to use until the boathouse boss). It wants to be horror but does everything in its power to veer into being action shlock, which I wouldn't mind if you were a faster paced character.

>>713145141
Admit it, you made a baseless assumption about how the game's story would play out, you were wrong, and now you're mad about it, so you made a thread to bitch about it like that's not a super embarrassing thing to do.

>>713145824
There is no justification for Zoe disappearing from the narrative.

>Muh DLC

That's even more egregious, retard.

RE7 was great. Bitter, old=good, contrarian, nitpicky anons shall cope.

>>713145993
>Recency bias

>>713145930
>There is no justification for Zoe disappearing from the narrative.
Yeah there is, she turned into a statue. Weren't you paying attention?

>>713146115
RE7 came out eight years ago.

>>713145993
>RE7 was great.
OP is a nutjob, but RE7 was absolute trash and barely a video game. It does everything wrong. Someone grabbing Ethan and moving the camera around for an ebin jump scare in the dark doesn't make it atmospheric or compelling. It's a moviegame in the truest sense of the word.

>>713143307 (OP)
>its this thread again, how many times are u going to bait with your contrarian hatred for re7? ive played all the way theough re6 on professional and its OKAY its a decent lil action flick with fun dumb re bullshit story and characters but its too retarded to pretend its at all better than re7. At best you can say its massive scope is more admirable and impressive than re7 (despite the actual execution of said concept being a bit of a mixed bag obvs) but thats it.

>>713146362
That's called being written off due to a rushed and shitty game (The lack of mercenaries makes that apparent)

Now justify Mia magically teleporting her way onto the boat

lol now he's doing 2 pastas per thread
