'we wanted someone that experiences horror from the same perspective as the player. she learns to overcome her fears throughout the course of the story...'
i'm all for this. one of the many things i loved about re vii...

If it's more horror and less action i might ended up playing in FPV most of the time. Here:

Because at this point Leon way too experienced which you can't make proper horror game which kinda turns in to action game rather that horror like what happened with RE6....heck even with RE4.

I love that the portal website was breaking immediately, lmao. This looks so good. I hope it's even better than 7 and Village.

The "Extended" interview is now up, just a couple of minutes longer. They show some scrapped MP game concepts.

Yup which is why I hate replaying Village cause of the monster baby part not because it's scary but it's annoying to replay it. Plus the intro of RE7 with unskippable cutscenes and no combat. Resident Evil should be more about a mix of combat and horror. I replayed Resident Evil 2 and Resident Evil 2 Remake the most out of every Resident Evil game cause it has enough action with enough horror mixed in. Sure the Sherry part was annoying but at least they are short compared to the Village baby house puzzle section and I also play Leon's side a lot more than Claires anyway.
Although I hope the pure horror as in no weapons and only hiding section is short in RE9 with most of the game being more like RE2/RE2 Remake for the perfect balance, not too horror and not too actiony.

I just genuinely don't get what's exciting about this game so far. There's no gameplay or even level design to see, it's just generic spooky slow walking. If this didn't say Resident Evil, you could tell me it's any of the post-Amnesia/Outlast era Steam horror games and I'd be like yea sure.
Not trying to get zingers in, I legit don't get this lol. I'm definitely curious to see what else they may have in store of course but as of right now, I'm like...okay...?

Don't hold your breath, it's the same director of RE7. I remember back in 2016 he did an interview saying that "gameplay doesn't matter in Resident Evil", it's all about the "immersion" or something.

Tbh RE7&8 was like that. The boat section in RE7 and some sections of RE8 aren't fun on replays.

I'm really disappointed that they are going the R7 route for this game!
I wanted a good mix of Re2 remake and Re4 remake blended in one!
Resident evil is my favorite series! Now I'm bummed...Re7,8 really don't feel like Re games...great games not great Re games and by the looks of it this one will be part them.

So true, I replayed Resident Evil 2 remake so many times and I find the original games very replayable. I can't imagine replaying Resident Evil VII in the same way at any degree of similar frequency.

well, if the raccoon city incident happened in 1998, then they are old, eh? 30 years later is only 2 years out from next year...

For real. The fans want Leon.

They name dropped him in the video that he can't be the main character in a game where someone has to be scared every now and then.
He's most definitely a secondary character ala Chris in RE Village. You don't just namedrop Leon out of thin air for no reason. They could have said any other character.

Yeah I think he's in the game in some form. They been careful with not giving too much about the game. And with name dropping him in the interview it basically gets people talking. Might of just been another troll job to talk about him not being a fit for horror and than he shows up when you least expect it.

Lmao does anybody here actually buy that Leon isn't in the game?
For one, they didn't actually ever confirm that he isn't playable. They just spoke around it and stated he doesn't work with horror. He does, however, work with the "overcoming your fears" part of their goals. IMO it makes sense that Grace will have the pure horror sections while Leon has the more action focused campaign. She'll introduce and escape threats, he'll actually end them. Otherwise, there was no reason to specifically mention Leon.
Second, they've already confirmed that there's a second playable legacy character who has an arsenal of weapons. That already flies in the face of any thought to the contrary. If anything, their "We wanted Leon as protag" comment basically confirms who that second character is, because it doesn't make sense to say you can't use Leon because he's too capable, and then feature Chris or Jill instead when they're functionally the same as the protagonist you actually want to use.
Third, they've shown they aren't above a bit of trolling and misdirection with comments with the way they handled the original reveal. IMO this is just that.

I wish capcom would just put the fries in the bag ie give us 3rd person camera Leon Kennedy resident evil back in raccoon city.
I don't want to play as a scared girl, I don't care that Leon won't be scared because I will be scared for him.
I'll play resident evil 9 but I already know it's not what I want.

Same here. Honestly, I don't give a fuck that Leon is experienced and somehow can't experience horror/be scared. It's not that hard to write around such a thing. I'm sure this new character is fine, but I really don't give a shit if she's scared on screen. The whole point is that the player is freaked out by what's being presented/hinted in the location.
Again, I'll play, and I'm sure the character is fine. But, I don't really need, nor care, to hear about how Leon is some superman character and can't be a focus as a result. If anything, you become more of a pussy as you age. I know I sure as fuck have. Put him in there and let 'er rip.

agreed. hey, we all loved the original trilogy, &, aside from jill's return, none of us had any pre-existing attachment to any of the characters. worked just fine...

I liked Leon as much as the next guy but we already played as him in RE2 Remake and RE4 remake, I personally glad we play someone else other than Leon.
