Resident Evil Village Releases on May 7th, 2021 (Cross-gen, PS4/PS5/XB1/Series/PC)

just about 4 and a half hours, 2 took me about 8, and it had the advantage of 2 characters and all the extra stuff capcom added,
if re3 had been a 30 dollar dlc I'd have been like, heh it's fine ,
plus the original re3 had the fantastic mercenaries mode, that being absent really stung,

Do you read all the lore and collect everything on first run? I'm beginning to think I left it unpaused for 3 hours or something lol it makes no sense I took that long, I didn't die a lot or anything, I think I died twice in the whole game and once was because I had to suicide on the clocktower battle because I ran out of ammo, somehow, never happened again after that.

yeah I read everything and got all but 1 upgrade, so maybe you left it unpaused,

Yea, the RE3 Remake is an awesome game but it definitely lacked a lot of elements. Way too streamlined and the Nemesis encounters aren't anywhere near as good as the original game. The thought of Nemesis as a Mr X type stalker seemed so cool, weird that Capcom made the encounters the way they did. I'm not upset over it because I can always just go and play the OG game but considering how good Remake 2 is, Nemesis deserved the same treatment.

yeah, basically at the same point, did a lot right and the right parts are great, if Jill had an actual clocktower area and we got to play as Carlos in the time after jill goes till he finds her would have probably have made the game full enough
 
Dimitrescu and her three daughters all harken back to what you might expect from vampire lore. We're not saying that's what they are, but there's certainly something that feels supernatural about what's going on.

We don't want to spoil too much of the story but what I can say is that the creatures all fit
within the context of Resident Evil's world. We can assure you that Resident Evil Village takes into account the overall world and history of the series.
Concepting and planning was something going through our developers' minds since towards the end of Resident Evil VII: Biohazard. The team grew quite attached to Ethan as a character so we knew we wanted to continue his story arc. We wanted to continue to have players experience the game through the eyes of protagonist Ethan Winters. This is a continuation of Resident Evil VII: Biohazard after all.

This really helped to keep our vision on target. And since we are constantly sharing information across Resident Evil teams, that really helped inform us in making what we consider the best survival horror game to date.
You'll notice we took a lot of inspiration from Resident Evil 4. The team has put a ton of effort into creating a truly authentic feel. There are plenty of surprises to keep you on your toes; players will find a balance of combat, exploration, and puzzle solving.

More reasons to anticipate this game even more.
 

Is it not the opposite?

Chris shot Mia but kill Rose... take Ethan and Mia to the Village... Ethan wake up when Chris is putting bandages on Mia.
Unless the Mia at Ethan's home is not the real Mia... if that is true then I can believe Chris didn't kill Rose.

BTW that sequence is kind of showed in trailler already.

They basically point out the obvious. Good on them, but I like the voice of Capcom to be heard louder than the influencer. I say that because I got into Capcom games since the early 90's and it wasn't from someone preaching to me about it. Is it bad that the whole "before you preorder thing" rubs me the wrong way? I preordered before watching another person talk about it because the trailer showed enough and it's Capcom we are talking about. I get it, it's a hype video, but good Lord you'd think they wrote the damn thing.
 
I found the demo pretty underwhelming, tbh. PS4 graphics and walking sim gameplay. Hopefully Village is better.
does not look like PS4 graphic to me, and it runs above 30fps (and i played re7), some lets play channel, the first thing they praise is the visuals the moment they step in the demo. And the lighting effect is amazing as well.

I dunno, is RE8 really that hyped? I feel like it's still a relatively niche audience even though it's big as shit. Weird dynamic. Maybe I'm just talking out of my ass.

Gameplay wise I'm expecting it to be solid. I just hope the story is engaging, as much as I love RE, Capcom can't seem to get a handle on the plot in modern RE titles, shit is all over the place. (Not counting RE2/3 remake)
 
I've got my collectors edition coming in 5 weeks and I still haven't been able to snag a next gen console. It's getting ridiculous.

Crazy. This is the first time I snagged one upon release. It was easy for me to completely forget about everyone who hasn't gotten a console.
I think you'll get one in time. 100% bullshit prediction, but I have been known to have e.s.p.

Thanks! I've got less than a month so I'm banking on your e.s.p. LOL

The park and cemetery are also a big miss in the game, one my favorite moment in RE3 was in cemetery when zombies comes from undergrounds, that's quite shocking they cut a moment like that in the game.

Imo the Demo is actually the best part of the game and the most "respectful to the original and feels like RE3" part of the entire game.

The worst part is the first 30 minutes "hold stick up/ qte" city. I love the fact that you start in Jill's home tho.
 
Capcom has 2 REEngine games this generation to wow us. This is the first one. One more after this until the generation is over. *fingers crossed*
 
so... the demo unlocks earlier on a US psn account.
if anyone else is here from EU.
download it with a US account if you want to play early.
atleast that is what the timer says.

Looks like they are. Addressing what I thought was 7s biggest weekends with the lack of enemy variety
 
Is that all the enemies in the game? Spoiler warning if it is. Lol jeezus although the monster sure look a whole lot better (like 100% better) than RE7
 
Unlikely all of them. It's just the ones shown in the official trailers and screenshots.
Yeah. I watched it. I was really hoping to wait, but I wanted to see what they showed. Just a bit paranoid. Awesome looking enemies. I do wonder how annoying those enemies who are jumping, climbing, and running are going to be. Be prepared for CQC. 🙂 That demo should be up soon.

The village demo is out for the ps5 today, is anyone going to try it to see what the fps and Ray tracing is like?

I will try the ps4 Pro version when it unlocks in England that is.

Its the 30 minutes demo for the village.
 
That looks rooooough
The 4k trailer looks waaaay better. You can actually see a bunch of differences from the one below. Better textures, and even different moment to moment animations. Everything also looks smoother. I think that other trailer is made with last gen whereas this one is the XSX and PS5 or PC.

Yes the GI footage seems in line with the PS4 Pro IGN footage.
I don't think it's next gen stuff.
 
Tried the demo, TURN OFF ACCELERATION before playing it. Looking around felt so delayed with it on.
