Finished the game. Hated the last third of the game, starting from the factory tbh.

I managed to get a few upgrades in anyway, and that was more than enough on normal difficulty.

Finished this up yesterday. Overall I'd say it's a better GAME than 7, but stylistically I prefer that one. It's a perfect mix of Texas Chainsaw and Evil Dead and the house is fucking creepy, but the enemy variety and last third lets it down hard. Re8 is a pretty consistent 8/10 throughout where 7 can hit anywhere between 4 and 10/10

I just got to the part in the Castle where

spoiler (click to show/hide)
Ethan takes his severed hand and puts it back on and it works

Ummm, WHAT roflll

Is Ethan a mutant or something?

Also is my memory of RE7 hazy or I thought he lost a hand by the end of that game already?
[close]


Otherwise I'm having fun and it looks great. Basically feels like an FPS. Too many scripted sequences and some bs stuff with enemies popping up right in your face and grabbing you though.

Also are there melee moves? I'm assuming there aren't, but it feels weird being RE4 style RE but you can't melee kick people away.

Ok, yeah figured that must be it.

The game is WAY more hilarious though without that. Like this dude just keeps getting the shit beat out of him and then is all videogame-y fine. I've been laughing my ass off at a bunch already. I kinda like it because it balances the creepy horror tone.

Lots of people have been saying they hated the factory and like... I thought it was fine? Probably the least interesting location but also not like, distractingly bad or whatever.

The house the 2nd boss is in was my favorite part of the game, because it was the fucking creepiest shit.

Finished it earlier today.

Spend 2 hours running around until I realized I broke the game.

spoiler (click to show/hide)
In the factory after finding the Heisenberg recording the propeller dude chased me a second time. I went to the Duke in the Elevator, but instead of going to B2 (to progress), I went back down to B4. After arriving at B4 I jumped down to the area with all the smoke and the mechanical pump things you have to disable. Surely I found all the treasure I was after but after doing so I couldn't return back to the duke because the elevator dude breaks down the door to the B3 elevator switch and the path to the B4 elevator is impossible to get back to after rerouting the power.

Eveline/Eva sort of being reborn as Rose, had a lot of parallels with Alessa/Cheryl being reborn as Heather for me.  The darker, more tortured past version getting a redo in a new body. They set it up like Rose is going to be a future protagonist too, just as Heather was.

Finished the story

spoiler (click to show/hide)
The Heisenberg Terminator factory was quite a trip. The sequence where you play as Chris mowing down lycans was a cool end game to finally get some pay back on these assholes.

Miranda knew Umbrella's Spencer?
Rose has the same 'immortality' as Ethan, the mold lives on through her?

Driving a tank in a Resident Evil game  :lol

That anti-vaxx storybook at the end  :lol
[close]

Overall solid 8/10 would play Capcom nonsense again, hopefully some DLC or a sequel in the near future :rejoice

One thing that irks me a bit is how everything is contained in areas.
In Mercenaries you get some factory and castle enemies in the village too, would've been cool if that happened in the main game and it would've made the village feel more connected.

That was a difficult fight. I killed them all.

I'm not sure what you're supposed to do but in some rooms you can indeed decide to cut and run instead of killing everything.

I think the only times you're SUPPOSED to just try to avoid/run away from enemies are the big lycan attack at the beginning of the game and

spoiler (click to show/hide)
as you're heading towards Miranda right before the final battle and wights or whatever are falling everywhere. Well, also at the beginning-ish where you're captured and the four lords/Miranda have a meeting. And I guess from Sturm a couple times. OK THERE'S MORE RUNNING THAN I THOUGHT.

But yeah, I think you're just supposed to fight the stronghold enemies off in waves as they spawn, try to use exploding barrels/mines/pipe bombs to take out multiple enemies at once to make it easier, etc.

Yeah, I thought you were supposed to kill everything during the Stronghold part. Besides, you do get drops from pretty much every kill.

Anyway, I finished it and I felt a pretty much extreme sense of "meh". It was ok. I really just don't like First Person RE. I couldn't help but think all the time how much better the combat would be if it was third person. The game wants to be more action-focused and have a lot more spatial awareness like RE4. But you move pretty slow even with the quick turn, so it just becomes press the block button a lot. So it doesn't really feel all the tense. Gunplay felt ok and the different areas were all pretty solid.

The story was shit even for RE standards. I never finished RE7 because it was in first person, but it seemed like such a radical departure from previous RE games and well pretty well written....In a sense that dialogue felt more natural and it seemed knowingly tongue and cheek. Here it's just lame. The premise is stupid. The characters are stupid. It tries to be serious at the end, but Ethan is a nothing character. it feels like it's trying to appease fans like me who weren't interested in RE7, but tow the line with what RE7 did. Doesn't surprise me that RE* bombed in Japan, the series feels like b level American crap now.

I don't know, I rather play RE3 Remake.
