I can't keep up with all of these games! This one seems really interesting, but I'll be picking it up later in the year because Saros is my next day 1.

 

[Neolombax]

...damn it. Another game to add to the list of April. Still going to wait for Saros to decide which game to purchase this month. This game reminds me a lot of Binary Domain, which is a very very good thing. Capcom is really on a roll.

I was already Day 1 from the Demo but this seals the deal!

 

[Stafford]

Really enjoyed that demo. Definitely buying this one at some point, this year. Great to see it's well received. Expecting that for Onimusha too.

 

[Nankatsu]

Was planing on buying this day 1 but then came a game called Crimson Desert.

I'm pushing this one back.

 

[Bojji]

Nice.

 

[SilentSpecter]

Done, lets goo

Loaded?

 

[ShadyAcshuns]

 

[Bartski]

the demo was awesome and it breaks my heart I won't have time to pick it up on release.

 

[Giallo Corsa]

Took a quick look through some reviews and many mention the same things :

- The characters and their chemistry is great (for those that feared that Diana would get annoying)

- Story is surprisingly good

- Great game/combat loop (that doesn't get tiring like many feared)

- Level design is great (I've actually seen the term "Metroidvania-esque" quoted/mentioned, can go back to previous areas

- Great exploration/many findable goodies across them

- Esthetics/art direction are praised

- One of the best looking RE engine games with near flawless performance

- One of the "best modern Capcom games"

I'm so fucking in !

a lot of heavy moments, if you're a dad, you're going to get hit with the fucking feels playing this"

Eneba

 

[The Cockatrice]

Seems like its a really short game. I dont have time for it since CD and Rogue Trader are ocuppying my time for at least another month, but someday when its super cheap, I'll prolly bite.

Funny, I pushed back CD because of all the other great games coming over the next few months. Figured I'd give it the time needed to finish polishing their issues.

Capcom is a day1 dev, and practically has been since the 90s!

> Brand new AAA IP that takes legitimate risks.
> Innovative new mechanics that help the game differentiate itself from the rest.
> $60 instead of the 70-80 bucks asked nowadays.
> No open-world bloat.

Can we have more of these?

 

[touchfuzzy]

Glad it turned out, and sounds like Capcom did super solid work on the Switch 2 version (and it's releasing day one, not way later or mysteriously delayed for some reason). Not sure why other devs seem to be having issues with this. I'm interested in checking it out but don't think I'll be day one, a shorter action game like this I'll probably wait for a sale.

 

[mckmas8808]

BRO SERIOUSLY! I didn't actually expect this game to be this good. I expected high 70s.

[mckmas8808]

wow...Capcom is on a roll this year.
See when you stick to your guns and keep releasing good single player games?

 

[Northeastmonk]

10-15 hours, 8-10 if rushed. Expect 15-20 for 100%. That's what AI summary told me.

 

[Fbh]

Better than I expected.
The demo was pretty fun but I wasn't sure how well it would scale up to a full game experience, but it sounds like they nailed it.

It's definitely going on the wishlist.

 

[Gonzito]

10-15 hours, 8-10 if rushed. Expect 15-20 for 100%. That's what AI summary told me.

Perfect length tbh. After Crimson Desert having a smaller game its going to help

 

[Nocty]

someone on twitter said 7 hours LMAO

jesus christ capcom!!

 

[ssringo]

I preordered it after the demo dropped. Glad to see it reviewing well and I hope it pays off in good sales. Going in blind otherwise.

I'll grab it when it's heavily discounted then

 

[LavitzSlambert]

Didn't expect much from this, but glad to see it's reviewing well. Seemed kind of like Vanquish, with a dash of Astral Chain. I won't be there at launch but perhaps one day down the line. I hope it succeeds regardless.

 

[TRL88]

Have the game pre-ordered on Steam because the demo was already fantastic, great to see that Capcom delivered yet another hit. Friday can't come soon enough!

The demo also has a couple shortcuts if you go back to it. I caught the Resident Evil loop of level design they hinted at when I found them.

 

[Nocty]

the game is £50 on steam man, for 7-10 fucking hours... seriously, I hate how things are nowadays.

Absolutely wild to me that so many indie games below £20 at launch that have 100, 200 and sometimes more gameplay time. SUCKS cause I really like the look of this, just cant justify that cost per hour. Will grab on deep sale

 

[Moondoggy]

someone on twitter said 7 hours LMAO

jesus christ capcom!!

"someone on twitter" seems like a great way to judge the game, just like the guy that said Requiem was 8 hours long.

 

[Hudo]

Better than I expected but I am buying it regardless. Demo was really fucking good. Got all the drawings.

 

[Luipadre]

someone on twitter said 7 hours LMAO

jesus christ capcom!!

Said the same about RE9, took me almost 16 hours so...

 

[HRK69]

Take out the Requiem cut scenes and it's amazingly short

yeah in case it wasn't obvious I was being sarcastic lol.

But still, seems the game is short.

 

[Luipadre]

But cutscenes are part of the game and nobody skipping those on the first playthrough. Why would you want to cut out the playtime of those?

 

[analog_future]

I loved the demo but wanted to wait to see how this reviewed.


Sounds like they nailed it. Just preordered. Can't wait!

[Moondoggy]

It's not though, most Resident Evil games are around the same length as Requiem.

 

[KaiserBecks]

Yes! Preordered weeks ago already. Great to hear the game will be as polished as the demo. Well done Capcom!

 

[Hero_Select]

Take out the Requiem cut scenes and it's amazingly short

I mean.. cuscenes are a part of the experience? Take out the cutscenes from MGS4 (or all MGS games) and you have like 3-4 hrs of actual gameplay lol

 

[Ribi]

Meh

 

[xrnzaaas]

The reviews are a positive surprise and I'm also satisfied with the projected length. It would probably be 15-20 hours with my usual playstyle, just like in RE9.

Crimson Desert is taking my free time right now, so I'll just wait a few months and get it on sale.

 

[Thebonehead]

This game looks cool but I cant shake the feeling that the girl will be annoying in the long run

First time I have ever seen this game.

5 seconds of the trailer and hearing that voice was enough to tell me it would be unpalatable to play for me

 

[Roni]

I already have it pre-ordered on marketing alone. I've been mulling over trying the demo or just waiting for the full game.

I read somewhere the demo might not represent the final game as there could've been changes.

Is the segment shown in the demo part of the full game or is it a purpose built demo like RE7?

 

[Draugoth]

Game looks great, but I will wait for a discount, I didn't like the enemy robots.

 

[HRK69]

It's not though, most Resident Evil games are around the same length as Requiem.

I was just pointing out that depending on how you engage with the game, those 'it's only 8 hours' claims don't come out of nowhere. I've seen streamers finish it in 6 hours.

But cutscenes are part of the game and nobody skipping those on the first playthrough. Why would you want to cut out the playtime of those?

I mean.. cuscenes are a part of the experience? Take out the cutscenes from MGS4 (or all MGS games) and you have like 3-4 hrs of actual gameplay lol

I wasn't saying anything deep here, just talking about actual gameplay time versus total runtime. Relax.

 

[Hero_Select]

It's a weird distinction to make

"If you take out cutscenes from a game, its shorter"

Duh?

 

[paolo11]

This year is fire for gaming (except high cost consoles). I'm getting this game
