Resident Evil Requiem: Review Thread

GOTY level score? WTF!? So score determines for you if the game is GOTY or not?

I'm starting really hate obsessed score generation of gamers.

Stop being so fragile. Most years my personal game of the year doesn't reach 90+ scores. But for general consensus? For The Game Awards and other recognition? It's almost always going to be games that reach that 90+ average.


That's all I'm saying. None of this really matters.
 
Without spoiling who it is, can anyone tell me if any legacy characters show up (besides Leon and Sherry)?
This game is not a reunion. It's a new game, mainly contained story with some nostalgia here and there. Don't expect Chris, Jill or whatever in here.

VGA are just popularity contest, nothing more.
 
Performance seems good on pc. My 5070 ti will feast this at 1440p.



To be expected with the RE games, if only they could've done as good of a job with Monster Hunter and Dragons Dogma 2 <_<.
Same engine afaik but the devs for those game suck at optimization.

Altho I do wish he'd also check with low to mid range cards.

Sounds more like 70/25/5.

You know what I'm talking about.
Yeah, but I wanted to give them hope lol.

There are kinda "legacy characters" but from the opposite side lol.



Sphere Hunter is a longtime RE fan and loved it. Generally a reliable source when it comes to all things RE.

Fuck that moron. Sucks crapcoms balls like a vacuum for the demakes but shits on SH2 Remake, just because it's Konami.

Certified Capcom shills are not really a trust worthy source.

I personally dont care for reviews and I was already sold on this game when they first mentioned its going have 3rd person option.

I'm hyped!

I dont care what anyone says Capcom is killing it this year.
 
I personally really like it that there is a Horror Segment (Grace Ashcroft) and a Action Segment (Leon S. Kennedy) in Resident Evil: Requiem.

i hope so, cause last couple years they killed too, but the performance of their games.

The 5060 is a low range card?
 
I have a PS5 and Switch 2. Hoping its not too different on Switch 2 since I prefer the portability (thanks to the switch 2 I am making my way through games at work).


"Nintendo Switch 2 has improved graphical specs, so we wondered if Requiem could run on it – and it did, with ease. When we, the development team, first saw it in our hands, we were sceptical too, so we had to do a triple take. We thought to ourselves 'Oh, this is really running on Nintendo Switch 2?. It all worked so smoothly that we just decided to go ahead with the game as-is and make it for the console. With specs like these in handheld mode, it looks great.

"With Nintendo Switch 2, you also have GameChat. That's perfect for horror games. Even players who think they can't play alone can have fun together just by inviting friends to watch. So I feel like GameChat was made just for Resident Evil."
 
I'm not a fan of horror but I do want to support Capcom for giving this day 1 on Switch 2... RE4 didn't have scary stuff for me, is it like that?
 
Based on the switch up review, this runs on switch 2 60fps/4k with raytracing/screen space reflection (both?) Where its most stable expect some parts like that fire area.

Lets ee how accurate it is
