Resident Evil Requiem Gamescom Previews are starting to roll in

Jesus, third person makes the game lose 75% of its atmosphere, first person It is

I don't care for the main character of this game for some reason, and I can't put my finger on why.

Nothing in the previews wowed me yet, but RE usually builds as you go on in the game, so it's probably not a big deal.
 
So far what they've been showing is VERY early in the game. Like first 30 minutes early. They want to try something different this time by giving us a protagonist, that's actually legitimately terrified, going as far as to show that she suffers from panic attacks.

RE7&8 had about 20 of gameplay before you started to get your weapons, so I expect it'll be the same for this.
 
Classic RE games could have both horror and guns, but today it's either helpless crawling with flashlight or going full Rambo on enemies. Somehow with realism, the original design fell apart. But I think it's doable, perhaps new RE devs aren't as good. At first glance I hope it's not just empty/bleak corridors for the majority of game, path traced or not.
 
Man I don't want to slowly walk around conserving ammo anymore. I'm so done with it. Give me another action game.

Maybe the release schedule means RE9 is going to be sandwiched between RE4 Remake and RE5 Remake, the two most action-oriented titles in the series so Capcom thought this one needs to be more atmospheric and less combat-centric?

(I know that leaker guy reckons we're getting Resident Evil Zero remake next but I cant see that myself, especially with the tease for RE5 at the end of of RE4 Remake).
 
The light from the flashlight looks really weird reflecting on her hair in 3rd person.

And while this footage works better than the mom trailer, it's still not anything special.
 
I hope this is just a "cinematic" intro to the game.
I want to shoot zombies and other monsters in RE. If a big part of the game is this Outlast style experience about running, hiding and sneaking past monsters than it's an easy pass.
 
okay i serious hope this girl will get more combat training and decent weapon in full game, would hate to play someone that keep moaning and whinning and force to runaway from every shit a whole game, i mean some place with chaser it's good to change the pace but a whole game build base on that mechanic
 
i want to love these games, but theres too many fucking puzzles. all of them are littered with "door is locked, find a way in" bullshit boring game design.
 
3rd person it is! Her character model is so well done to not see during gameplay...

This generation is finally picking up. People need to calm down about there not being any action. Either she is going to turn into a commando or Leon is gonna show up. RE gonna RE.

Are any of these without someone talking over it?

The very first gamespot video after the intro bit is all pure game capture.

Hoping they announce another PSVR2 version, if so I'm double dipping with PC


I also retract some of my frustrations expressed during the 'gameplay' they showed yesterday. It doesn't make any sense to show larger more action heavy sections of the game only to have all hands on previews about it being stuck in the hospital.

would like to she her as protag rather than leon, if leon become protag or even co-protag in the game, ada will hanging around for sure, the leon, ada story was cool when i was teenage, but as i am getting older and so they are, and they still doing same shit like 1998, it's getting cringe

Seems to me that the story would be centered around Grace with Leon being a supporting character/ co-protag. And their flavor of camp/cringe has changed since RE6. I doubt we are getting much of those dynamics anymore.
