I always like perusing the main RE subreddit after something like this releases to see the Redditoid hogs line up at the trough for some more slop. Every time I try to consume content regarding modern AAA gaming, I'm reminded of just how dead it is yet it continues to make money hand over fist.
I'm fucking pissed they didn't release a demo. I wanted to play it early, even if there's not that much.
The Leon segments look like improved RE4 gameplay.
The fact that remains of even a single building in Raccoon are intact is also really stupid. The whole city is clearly wiped off the map in 3 but capcom's lack of creativity drags us back there. The latest pics of the crater also make no sense. You'd think the japs of all people would know what a city hit by a missile looks like.
It at least lives on in newer indie titles and fan patched versions of the classics' PC ports (despite capcom's efforts). The sudden deluge of titles in the past couple of years leads credence to the idea that people still want those types of games.
even if we say it was a Nuke, its not a fucking world destroyer, yal have a wild idea of how much one nuke would do.
Indie is dogshit and falls into the plagiarism trap and limited inventory difficulty trap with piss poor balancing. Name one game that actually holds a candle to old titles that isn't Signalis and you'll run out very fast.
Having looked at some official screens it's now obvious capcom is going with the raccoon city from the remakes, which is modeled after Montreal. I always thought it was dumb they made the city so much larger when it's supposed to be some small midwestern town. It's not like you got to see a lot more of the city either.
To each their own. Your choices now are either overpriced triple A garbage or indie games. The latter at least has gameplay that doesn't bore me to tears and is reasonably priced. I finished Signalis and Conscript awhile back and while I like their mechanics I felt they just don't quite nail the atmosphere as well as stuff I've played recently like Echoes of the Living and Ground Zero. Phase Zero is another one but the demo for that was fairly short so I dunno how well it will turn out yet. Hollow Body is another one I need to get back to along with Heartworm.
I've never played Haunting Ground but RE4 is definitely not survival horror. 4 is certainly one of the best action games ever made but 0 was the last classic game to be in that genre until 7. If they'd actually tried harder with 7 it could have been great but it was too half-assed.
Plot twist: You're not returning to Racoon City, you're going back to Tall Oaks.Having looked at some official screens it's now obvious capcom is going with the raccoon city from the remakes, which is modeled after Montreal.

So yeah, they're basically ignoring canon so they can have multiple cities in one game (going right back into RE6 territory).
You can turn off qtes? Even for the tit monster in the plane in 6?
Um ackshually, those are Lugers.
White Supremacist Ada &/or Sheva. Will sell like hotcakes amongst the urban ABG crowd & countrysides.
I will give credit where it's due, the Requiem Revolver & the outfits look cool as fuck.
Obligatory
its size as "Small" has always been suspect.
Not really. Until capcom started drastically changing things with the remakes, Raccoon was basically Springfield, Missouri.
Angry Pat? Guy used to have a taste for survival horror but now he's just a pathetic capcom shill.
But The Sphere Hunter is almost always very positive when it comes to RE games.
Buddy I live in a small town, Racoon City, just with Re 2 and 3 has the trappings of a big city in a small package, which makes sense, Umbrella made it big.
Although hasn't he said it's the only game this year that's probably going to be good?
He said the same thing about RE4 remake and look how that turned out.
