RE7 was so frustrating. Terrific early game atmosphere and bosses, but the most repetitive, one-note combat against boring-looking enemies for the rest of the game.

I just want them to add a RE3/Revelations-style dodge. Combat felt so fucking plodding I tried to replay 7 and bounced off almost immediately. Games can be scary even if your character is allowed to move faster than a glacier. A dodge makes more sense than a block anyway given your character is fighting giant fucking monsters.

It's a mainline RE title, so of course it's going to do very well. No reason to expect otherwise
No, I don't mean sales-wise. And it's not just PR talk. Generally, when devs feel less confident about their game, they don't show that much. REV has been constantly shown, and always demonstrating their vision. It shows confidence.

God damn. I loved RE7 but one disappointment, or me, were the basic enemies being so non frightening. Even at a first playthrough the molded weren't shit. The enemies we're seeing for RE8 look fucking awesome in comparison, really scary.

I really hope it's a better game then RE7, where the empty house and silly chase sections (+ not readable bosses) made quite a mediocre mix. Maybe it will be more in line with RE2 Remake in terms of quality, too bad that it won't be available on PSVR :/

I hope is good. RE7 was my GOTY in 2017. I am not 100 percent convinced with this new direction. This looks like another game with RE8 slapped on top of it.

I wish I could be more excited for this, but for me the last great RE game was 4. RE2 remake was fine but I strongly prefer the original.

Oh well. Hope you guys enjoy it.

It's a bit off topic, and I'm really not trying to concern troll, but did we ever get a update from Dusk Golem on PS5 development in general for RE8?

It seemed like Capcom was having issues, according to Dusk. Then again, none of the differences between multiplats came to fruition, contrary to what Dusk was saying, the PS5 is currently performing slightly better and all multiplats are basically identical.

Have those issues been resolved at Capcom, Dusk? I really want this game to run well in general.

I also hope they don't compromise too much, now that they're trying to get the game to run on last gen consoles as well...

I'm surprised as how Re7 was divisive (going through the comments here, at least), as I have loved that game - and I also guess I'm not alone, as they are repeating Ethan as the main character

I'm fucking hyped. I dig folk horror and gothic horror so much in my old age and doing a RE in that setting is so fucking good.

Edit: Jesus Christ, I guess I'll be staying out of these threads. Another "Logan is ripping off Last of Us" vibe. I guess Bloodborne started gothic/folk/cosmic horror.
