Resident Evil Requiem: Review Thread

calistan said:
That's ridiculously nitpicky. A old supercar is still highly desirable because it's a classic, whereas an old graphics card is next to useless.

It's like saying the Amiga 500 is a high-end home computer in 2026. Hup hup!

The 5060 is NOT a high end card because it beats the GTX780.
What the stack is/was is how that card will be described.

The RTX 3070 was rivalling and/or beating the RTX 2080Ti.......no one called the RTX 3070 an enthusiast or high end card, because thats NOT where it was in the stack

Sounds too long and fanservicey. Should've just focused on Grace and make a followup to RE7 that doesn't fall off a cliff in the second half. But no, gotta appeal to the action tourists and everyone else too. Bleh.

Let it go man, RE has been trying to accommodate "survival horror" and action together since 2005, there is no going back from that
 
Perhaps this has already been announced... but is there going to be a PSVR2 version coming? That would then mean PS5 is my preferred platform. Otherwise, I'll buy it for PC for my RTX3080, then on sale someday for the Switch 2.

There is a bigger problem with this game.
Grace plays like re7, but with toned down weapons (2 pistols and 1 unlockable smg lol). Leon on the other hand has it all.
So grace more reluctant, leon more zombie molester.

That baffles me that even a PS5 Pro can't do Path Tracing. I mean really? Atempt failed imo.
I just hope PS6 will be different and more powerful.

Is it really baffling?. I saw a benchmark vid earlier and the 5090 was averaging 30fps with path tracing. The 5080 was like 20fps. I mean sure that was at native 4k with max setings but still.
Devs are not magicians when it comes to console power.

PT is extremely heavy in this game (like other games) and literally halves the frame rate on a 5090 compared to RT, despite being optimized for Nvidia. There is no chance of it hitting even 30 fps on the pro at 1080p internal res, so it's just not viable for the incremental benefit over RT. With RDNA 5 advancements, which should bring AMD on par (or slightly exceed) 50 series in terms of RT performance, I fully expect a game like this to pull off PT with PSSR at 60 fps on PS6. Or at least 48 fps with VRR

Ah well it will run perfectly with necessary features above 60, but I want to play with UNESSASARY features like PATH TRACING which would melt ps5 pro.

I know, it already melts these overpriced cheap cards like yours, like you already said.

I am just offering a way out. Come join us console peasants.
 
I'm not going to lie, i am a bit worried about the length of the game. I mean i know the early RE games were short, but 4 and 5 were decent length, and i already felt 7 and Village felt a little short.

I just find it hard to justify full price on short games these days. Maybe its just me.

I personally rather have survival horror that more short than goes too long.

SH2R was good but it's goes little too long.

Just like most RE games, I'm playing this game multiple times.

It is a midranger in the stack so it is a mid range card.
The 1080Ti is slower than alot cards today, that doesnt suddenly make it a low end card.
It was and always will be a high end card because thats where it sat on the stack



The 1080 was a high end card just cuz new generations come out doesnt suddenly change history.
Itll always be listed as a high end card even if its slower than many modern cards.
Just like Supercars of yore are still called Supercars even if a modern Hot Hatch would absolutely wreck them.

The 5060 is a low end card.

Damn. I have a high end GPU.

Here is the thing both Pragmata and MHStories 3 had demo which I played and absolutely fell in love with them.

Meanwhile most people in GAF are stupid hype for GTAVI and we haven't seen a single gameplay from that game.

Maybe because we know rockstar and the quality of their games, the hype is not stupid just because you don't share it.

I doubt you would need any gameplay to be hyped for the next fromsoft or capcom game even if they do a 10 sec teaser without gameplay...

This is just wrong.

GTA VI Trailer 2 (May 2025) was explicitly "captured entirely in-game on PS5, comprised of equal parts gameplay and cutscenes."

There is gameplay in it, movement, interactions, world detail, all running in-engine

The entire planet is hyped for GTA VI. It's not some forum echo chamber, it's the follow-up to GTA V (one of the best-selling entertainment products ever) and RDR2

Rockstar has a literal perfect track record for this series

It's not only the path tracing. I played RE4 Remake (which has no path tracing) on both PS5 and PC maxed and the difference is HUGE.

I'm not talking about if it's captured in-game or not….I'm talking moment to moment gameplay, shooting and mission structure.

Are we just talking about graphics or actual gameplay here? Because have they haven't properly delivered on actual gameplay.

With Capcom and FROM they actual released games that delivers on gameplay and good combat…..can you really say the same with R*?
