And I am still bummed out that it looks no different from all the "First Person/No-Combat" Amnesia clones that flooded the internet.

This game looks like its trying to hard to get noticed by Pewds and Markiplier :p

I hope that these style levels are flashbacks/tapes found by the main character who can actually do shit, kind of like the Ashley missions from RE4. It's early days but the main monster being a creepy woman with a lamp is not exactly horror inducing either.

The level design looks ok I suppose.

I preferred the demo for some reason. Did you know there is already a petition by, i'm guessing, fans to get capcom to change the camera to 3rd person? Hehehahaahaa. Oh wait, where are my laughing owls?...

It...doesn't really seem like a Resident Evil game. I mean, yes, I didn't join the series until 4, where it had basically switched to action horror instead of survival horror, but even in the first few games, at least you had weapons to defend yourself with. Here you're just running and hiding it seems.

I mean, I'm still interested in this game, but it doesn't seem very Resident Evil to me.

I like that idea.

Well, it certainly seems like they were listening to everyone's complaints after the release of RE6. They may have taken them to heart a little too much though.

Oh wow, scary woman in our face jump scare... Gee, how totally NOT like P.T.

I can't wait to play this and spend 90% of my time running and hiding from the scary person.

Resident Evil is dead. Capcom gave up after a decade of failure and slapped the Resident Evil name on a generic first-person walking and hiding game. Switching to first-person isn't progress.

Why do devs keep using chromatic aberration? They're always trying to make you think there's a screen between you and the world instead of immersing you as if you were there with your own eyes. Stop trying to make shitty movies.
to be honest. it might be only RE game that will be actually horror that they market it yet end up action game. and only one which may doesnot have bad camera control.

I wonder how you'd feel if Remedy decided to do their own Max Payne 3 but in first person.
Well Rockstar already ruined Max payne 3. so remedy first person one cant be worse.

The scary woman is pretty much public domain ever since Ring.

The whole 'creepy, scary woman face right up in your face' jump scare is definately a P.T. thing though. Capcom is not even trying to hide it.

I feel like it's worth pointing out that there's a weapon in the demo and the producer has confirmed the presence of combat in the full game.

So yeah, it won't just be running and hiding though it seems like large amounts of the game will come down to that.

I've been generally excited for the game but this video did nothing for me.

I highly doubt RE needs pewds or Markiplier to get noticed.

It looks fine. It's not as good looking as the first three games, but it's head and shoulder above the abortions that were RE 5 and 6. People have been clamoring for a survival horror game for a while. They should be happy.

This doesn't look too bad actually. I'm getting flashbacks of Lisa Trevor watching this.

Looks like they took the "make it a survival horror again" thing too serious. Now they just have another Outlast/Amnesia. Though I'm not all too excited by hiding in dark corners, I'm keen to see how the weapon handling plays out in this game. RE of late has been really big on guns, and I'm one of the rare few who actually enjoy those games for what they are. I hope the end product has something to do with the RE lore and franchise though, looking like a total reboot so far.

I'm getting a Condemned vibe more than anything else.
Condemned was more chaotic. Yeah there was a bit of stealth and creeping around in the dark, but it was more anticipation of when to turn and split someone's head open, or block an incoming golf club, rather than simply when to run or crouch and hide. Though I, too am getting the vibe of the old "condemned" buildings and lighting with insane people lingering around, if that's what you were getting at.

Except that this looks like the umpteenth first-person indie horror, just with the Resident Evil name plastered on it. Instead of trying to come up with something fresh to reinvigorate this franchise Capcom simply looked at what was popular at the moment and said 'Okay, let's take that and make into the next Resi.'

They did the same with RE6, they did the same with Revelations 2, and they're doing the same with RE7.
