It looks more open world?

It looks more open world?

Based on how RE is, its always been pretty open.

Having those door animations in the first titles didn't take away from its format being very open and back tracking etc. So with the new RE titles, you simply have those types of worlds, simply without the door animation, so I wouldn't be surprised if its more open, like some rural America type setting as they are saying a small town.

I'm sure areas will be locked away and you need to unlock something to get to a new area or get a item to allow you to go to area or something.

Open world in a sense the level design isn't made of interconnected rooms and corridors but actual large areas. The leak mentions a forest; but will it be an actual large forest area or a group of forest-themed corridors/rooms?

If it's true I can't wait for the "meet the family!" Scene. Again.

Not sure I believe it tbh.

 

[Sub_Level]

Hopefully FPS again. One more time to keep the trilogy motif going!

 

[Werewolf Jones]

Sounds like fan fiction crafted by an /x/ poster.

Likely forest themed corridors / rooms.

They can just make it like how RE8 was done tbh and just have areas separated by some puzzle or boss or item needed or something.

 

[K' Dash]

Yeah, bought.

 

[ZoukGalaxy]

I hope it is first person and supports VR.

This.

 

[lh032]

first person or no deal.

 

[Arachnid]

Oh boy. A 4chan leak. :/

No point even entertaining the idea, as good as that idea sounds. I hope the next RE is third person.

 

[Ailynn]

This sounds fantastic! I hope it has 1st and 3rd person view choices.

 

[Airbus Jr]

Open world?

 

[spookyfish]

This sounds fantastic! I hope it has 1st and 3rd person view choices.

I've gotten to where I enjoy 1st person in these newer games, but I agree—no reason both shouldn't be offered.

 

[Airbus Jr]

Resident Evil 9 bring him back

 

[Moses85]

Sounds good

Still too scared to finish RE7

 

[Spaceman292]

I thought there was a rule against posting random 4chan 'leaks'

 

[I'm nobody]

I smell bullshit! The mimic thing is just stupid in a action game like Resident Evil, I can't see how that would be done.

Always wanted a game that sound like the thing

 

[AV]

Has nobody pointed out that it'd be called the same thing as the second shitty movie? Yeah, they aren't doing that.

 

[niilokin]

the female antagonist with ornaments sounds alot like RE8 main baddy, but forest and small town roaming with mutant goatmen sounds fucking amazing.

 

[GymWolf]

'Hills Have Eyes' angle?

I'm down. Throw in an Emilie de Ravin looking hottie too from the remake.

How so? Hills doesn't have any mimic.

 

[GymWolf]

Yeah, it's the Ethan Winters trilogy.

Oh yeah, ethan "charisma black hole" winters.

Thankg god we have his daughters to control now...

Please be third person and fixed camera, Please be third person and fixed camera,Please be third person and fixed camera, Please be third person and fixed camera,

 

[SnapShot]

This better be First-person to go alongside 7 and 8 for a full First-person Trilogy

 

[Kokoloko85]

Sounds good. Either 1st or 3rd person mode Im
Down.

Just make it more horror based Resident Evil like 7,8 compared to 4,5 and 6's more action style

 

[H4ze]

Sounds not that bad, but I too wish for a third person game, never really got into the 7 and 8, the fpp just doesn't feel that good to me in those games

 

[chromhound]

Sound like a third person game

 

[tommib]

Sounds good

Try it in VR. It's not as scary and much more feasible and manageable.

 

[DavidGzz]

I guess make everyone happy by having both perspectives. If they had to choose one though, gimme 3rd.

 

[duck_sauce]

Sounds like wishful thinking.

I think what people mean by open world these days are tropical beaches and horse/contraption/vehicle riding through endless vegetation. Which hopefully we'll never see on a main RE game.

 

[Connificent]

Sounds good

 

[intheinbetween]

Sound like a third person game

Sound like a first person game, to me.

The interaction between enemies and NPCs seems really cool, I was wondering if any other game already took this approach before

 

[p_xavier]

The Wendigo in Kona was one of the creepiest designs there is. Hoping to see even worse in a RE.

Is that game worth a look? It's part of the + Premium subscription.

 

[fart town usa]

I never had any issue with the camera perspective. Puzzles, inventory management, and scares were always more important to me.

I think Capcom knows third-person is important though. Look at the third-person option that will be in RE8. Capcom clearly wants to get as wide an audience as possible in preparation for the 4make release.

I think it depends too if we play as Ethan in RE9. The Rose DLC is third-person. Capcom more or less said that first-person was incorporated due to Ethan being an avatar of sorts for the player to connect with.

Have faith, we've lived through Capcom floundering (360/ps3/Wii). They're back to firing on all cylinders as far as I'm concerned.

Yeah it got good to average reviews. It's French Canadian culture in a bottle so if you understand French I would play in that language as the English version is not the original.

 

[DeepEnigma]

How so? Hills doesn't have any mimic.

When I first read it, it seemed they're going with an after a nuclear fallout scenario that caused their own take on mutations.

But now that I read it again, it seems more forest Rocky Mountain like rather than Nevada desert.

 

[rabbity-thing]

Please be third person and fixed camera, Please be third person and fixed camera,Please be third person and fixed camera, Please be third person and fixed camera,

Third person fixed camera? Look, I like OG Resident Evil as much as the next guy, but fixed camera angles were a choice born from necessity. And while they might have looked neat and helped build atmosphere, the transitions were always jarring and clunky. They are a relic of the past and should stay there.

That said, if it's fixed 3rd, I'll still buy it. after a string of great Resident Evil games I legit don't care what Capcom does. I will take a chance on just about anything they want to push out. They've earned it.

 

[SJRB]

Sounds sick honestly. I really love the new age RE games.

 

[consoul]

I ain't buyin' what anon is sellin', stranger.

 

[Astral Dog]

it sounds interesting, but i can't believe it yet, no mention of perspective or main character(if its new or old)

 

[TheGecko]

I'll buy it if it's 3rd person or 2.5D.

 

[Ge Os]

I liked RE7 for what it was, but felt so outside of the RE lore that I it really looked like a different game got the RE title slapped to the cover. RE8 did a better work on tying the story of both games to the rest of the lore, and made Ethan a much relatable character.

The FPS aspect didn't bothered me that much, it gave the game a creepier atmosphere IMO. Even though I suck at aiming in FPS games, I really enjoyed both.

As for the "leak", I'm really curious about many of the things it talks about, and I can see them being real.
If true, count me in.

 

[AeonGaidenRaiden]

Can't believe after 5 years people are still complaining about FPV. Both 7 and 8 are immersive and creepy as first person and they work great. As for my wishlist, Id say enough with the unkillable protagonists. RE7 ran with it and it was intense, RE8 already felt like a copy paste and not even close as scary regarding Lady D.

 

[Marchizmo]

Real or not I'm a slave to this series. Sounds pretty cool. I also really wish if they're going with FPS to bring back zombies as a common enemy type.

 

[Samrf89]

art and originality are dead. and we just accept this. fuck this shit.

 

[EverydayBeast]

Good series capcom is doing for the horror fans vr is ok re5-6 was a bad stretch but that didn't last. RE7 and 8 were huge moments in gaming history.
