    I want to note firstly that I mostly liked the game, so the rating is not low. But a certain list of negative points left their mark. Therefore, this rating is "minimally green".

Therefore, this rating is "minimally green".
    So what I liked here: Very good graphics. At almost the highest settings, there were no problems at all with stability. Well-chosen music and very well-done sounds. Good elaboration of faces and facial expressions of characters. I can't say it's perfect, but still it is a very good work... The game, in general, has an interesting story. Not a masterpiece, but for this series of games it is on a quite good level... Skillful dilution of the gameplay between action and horror(though not scary). Except the plant, the rest of the locations seemed interesting and goodly to me. The village was authentic :)
    ...
    And now what I didn't like here:
    (((Strongly))) Throughout the game, one thought did not leave my mind, "Just shut up your boorish mouth"... The developers have completely turned this moment upside down: On the one hand, the protagonist went through a real Hell in Louisiana and did not become a commando, but learned to survive and fight. And here he constantly giving out something like “I don’t understand”, “What is it?”, “It cannot be,” is lost on an ordinary illusion, because if you are not an idiot, you will elementarily understand that there is an illusion in front of you. Yes, the monsters in different closets may differ, but here the authors deliberately sucked emotions out of their fingers and made drama for the sake of drama. On the other hand, he should have understood the danger of monsters, but at the same time he is rude, swears, haughtily insults bosses, monsters, places in that Village. It is as if he was one of the bosses of this World. It just pisses me off. And the most idiotic of these moments for me was when he was given 10 seconds to run away from the chase, and he started when there was ONE SECOND LEFT! ...Some large monsters ignore the tactics necessary for them(a large werewolf flies back after a shotgun in a face during his swing/flight, but this only works in 50%.
    (((Average))) That wildly incomprehensible nonsense that you meet at the very beginning of the game (in the house, in the prologue) is then explained almost at the end. But the idiocy of the act itself does not justify this. Moreover, one of the soldiers is also talking about it on the walkie-talkie... Too much archaism, which in 2021 should already be wildly embarrassing to use. Even if once it was in all the old games: a key hanging in the air, you cannot climb three steps in a room, or go around the lawn because of the hard "invisible walls", the disappearance of the corpse of an ordinary human with his gun and bullets on the field with a scarecrow. It doesn't brake game-play, but already annoying a lot.
    (((Minor))) Inconvenient control of the inventory. These manipulations with the shift and mouse buttons - you get used to it later, but it looks stupid ... Some inadequate prices from the merchant. Not in terms of the prices themselves, but in terms of "a loaf of bread for a million shells", if you understand what I mean ...One of the soldiers at the end says that "5 bullets to the head means a lot", and this is ridiculous after the fact that in the game itself the weakest monster is killed with 4-5 hits to the head.
    ((())) This is not a criticism or a drawback for me, that's why this will be separate: the bosses were interesting, but I would like some more thoughtful design of such unique characters. All except the fish died at the first try. Even mini-bosses. The fish killed me the first time almost by accident. And I'm not the hard-player. This is bad... But I liked the fact that they are all, in fact, different. Really different.
    ...
    Although all these annoying things did not ruin the games, I really can't give it a high rating. On the other hand, I do not just recommend it, but highly recommend it. This is the case when not "try it, maybe you will like it", but when "be sure to play it, there will be a few stupid decisions, but it's worth it."    … Expand

    For the most part 'Resident Evil Village' never rises above mediocrity. Banal is the word I would use to describe the whole game. Hardly any thought went into this.

Hardly any thought went into this. Most of the game's money was thrown into graphics and it shows. The game looks stunning, Resident Evil has never looked better. That's the best thing I can say about this game. Yes there are some great moments sprinkled sparsely throughout Ethan's journey. Add all of those moments up and you might make an hour's worth of genuine fun.

    The thing that makes this game sink into the abyss is the developers contempt for their audience and their greed for money. The game is mind-numbingly dull. There are only a few moments where the game requires you to think on your feet. The first one being the tedious intro where you have to survive the onslaught of lycans in hopes of triggering the cut-scene that puts and end to it. The last boss is well done, it does provide a good challenge. The boss fight with the giant lycan that swings the hammer is also a bit fun. An honorable mention is the toad boss, for me it was a little difficult mostly because he is a bullet sponge. That's about where the fun starts and ends, with those boss fights. There is a boss fight in the game(if you can call it that) that requires you to walk around a small house and QTE the boss using only one button! They didn't even bother making it a QTE where you have to do a series of inputs, nope, just press one button and done.

    And that so called "boss" is the best part of that section of the game. You reach a house and upon going in you lose your weapons. It's time to play walking simulator for an hour plus. Really CAPCOM? Am I supposed to be scared or engaged knowing that until you give me back my weapons nothing in the game is going to kill me? How can that possibly create immersion? Oh right, because gamers think immersion equals gorgeous graphics. People are so gullible nowadays, look at the positive reviews. Pay attention when they talk about the haunted house part. These people can no longer think properly or think for themselves. After bumbling around for an hour examining things with absolutely no enemies, let alone being able to die you are chased by a giant baby caterpillar! At a snail's pace the caterpillar follows you around for a few lapses. It's not scary, it's not difficult, it's just boring.

    The game is one massive scripted event with hardly any freedom. Once in a while the game lets you off its chains and gives you some time to explore at your leisure. Not that there is a whole lot to explore but there is some. And when you can, it feels nice those are the few times where the game creates immersion. It's as Shigeru Miyamoto once said. "When I create games I make the player sit in the director's chair. It's his game and he decides how he wants to do things." Resident Evil Village suffers from the Western "bro" mentality that has been plaguing gaming for over a decade. Where immersive games are pseudo interactive movies that mostly play themselves. Village is just that, an interactive movie with the most mundane gameplay offered by AAA gaming. A mash up of everything that is popular to appeal to every brain dead consumer. Even R.L Stine's Goosebumps series offers more horror and entertainment than this attempt at Resident Evil.    … Expand

    Now then, let's talk about how this game compares to it's predecessor.
    By now you've heard Village has more action than RE7 and isn't as scary, this is true.
    Not to say it doesn't have frightening moments, it most certainly does.
    Though it may not rely on horror as much as RE7, it more than makes up for that short coming with just downright fun gameplay.
    In my opinion, Resident Evil titles have always been more of horror adjacent action games.
    With that, I honestly think Village near perfects the RE formula.

    Looking at the story side of things, everything was pretty straight forward if you played RE7 and read the documents throughout.
    The game does have quite a few twists and fakeouts with a very divisive ending.
    I personally wasn't too bothered by the conclusion, but I think it could've been done better going by the promotional material.

    Regardless though, Resident Evil Village was a very fun experience that I think most players will enjoy.    … Expand

What makes this game worthwhile are the unlockables, further bolstering its replayability and rewarding players to keep playing more. The level design is done well where players can find items easier than the previous installment, characters are written well enough for an enjoyable experience, immersing you into the world of what Resident Evil wants to show you.

    It's done similar to Resident Evil 4, a mysterious virus outbreak in a religious village, castles and technology everywhere, and the raid on the player. The graphics are impressive and the cutscenes can now be skipped, allowing players to come back for more action. But that's where the problem stems.

    Unlike Resident Evil 7, the characters introduced are more laid back, energetic, and just them showing off. While RE 7 had a cast that was able to induce a haunting aura to the player, creating tension and fear in them, which is what a horror game should do. This could lead to fans feel less immersed and don't get to have fun in a game that they adored dearly.

    Next, Village's enemies are more of a pushover than 7. In every scenario the player is pushed into, only the Lycans posed such a threat to the player in all stages of the game. Killing enemies in the castle, and the factory feels more of a chore than a real challenge. They don't feel dangerous, rather annoying to be dealt with in the first place. Which can lead to experiencing boredom. No matter what difficulty you set in the game, the enemies are too weak to be dealt with.

    Other than that, the early game weapons don't scale very well, often having other weapons taking the spotlight and only makes them obsolete. Even at their strongest, the weapons simply don't stand any chance against the big guns. The weapons lack some sort of advantage that can still make them valuable against the hands of some powerful weapons. Because of that, the number of weapons considered useful is limited and causes the player to imply the same tactic by the end of the day.

    Lastly, the difficulty of the game is bad, having only artificial values going up to satisfy the player, which for me isn't worth it. The higher it goes, the more necessary you need powerful weapons to push through the game, which is more tiring than enjoyable. Not only that, it becomes a necessity to upgrade your stats to simply live through the hardest difficulty, causing the game to be severely flawed in terms of difficulty.

    In conclusion, it's still a good game, but not a fun one. Because of its overreliance on stat upgrades, treasure collecting, and limited options for weapons, the game can only hope for the unlockables and the story to do well enough for the flaws to be overseen. In the end, I don't think it's that bad, but this flaw is what hinders me from considering this a masterpiece.    … Expand

    I prefer the old style Resident Evil games, rather than the new one's.
    But, over this personal preference, the plot of the game is just too nonsensical in many points.
    The gameplay is good and the graphic is nice, so I guess it is enough for the horror genre to work here, at least on these aspects.

    i wouldnt even shoot any enemies unless i knew for sure the game would allow me to damage them at the time, that how on rails this game feels.
    I like that RE became a FPS because it adds a whole new depth to the immersion, only thing cooler about the 3rd person ones was all the death animations, but they still havent nailed the gameplay, they gotta make these games more hardcore and let loose a little with the overwhelming cinematic **** which isnt what the franchise was ever about.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I am a longtime Resident Evil fan and left a bit disappointed. While i think it was graphically very impressive and the setting in a remote snowed in village with a gigantic castle fantastic, i missed being scared like in older titles. Especially the later chapters gave me so much ammunition and threw hordes of enemies at me, that it almost felt like a shooter. I love Resident Evil when it goes more into a horror direction.

    Also i never cared much for Ethan and his family, his over the top voice lines already bothered me in the other title.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. A very good game overall for this year 2021 and a nice follow-up to RE7. The antagonists Dimitrescu (it is clear that she alone sold the game a lot), lady Bonnaviento and Heiselberg gave Ethan a hard time and had a lot of relief. Lady Bonnaviento is the one I found the most frightening, and not unlike an episode of Saw, although her chapter is not long. As for Mordeau, I think he was more of a filler antogonist and Miranda was sorely lacking for the final boss of a game like this. I personally think they should have kept Heiselberg's father as the final boss. There's also the Duke who made interesting references to the merchant in RE4. Chris' intervention in the game was great too. It's true that you don't understand what's going on until about 80-90% of the way through the game, before that everything is confusing and inconsistent.… Expand

    Resident Evil ist a weird series for me. I've played every main entry, but I've never finished one of them. Most of the time I only played them for a few hours, and than they rotted away on my harddrive just to be deinstalled. It is weird because I never thought of them as bad. Or boring.

It is weird because I never thought of them as bad. Or boring. I found each one scary. I was always satisfied with the presentation. I loved the enemy design. The scenarios were interesting. The underlying mystery was enduring.

    And yet, to my shame, it's RE 6 that I played the longest, for a simple reason: It was the best port, even though everything else about it was decent at best. And here is another game with all the aforementioned qualities, missing one thing: A decent port. An optimized experience. A mouse that works flawlessly and keyboard controls that make you feel in control. "Village" is a chore to play, with hickups, stuttering, lagging audio, slowdowns and a framerate that goes from 60 to slide show in an instant for no discernible reason.

    Resident Evil 8 also commits the general sin of bad direction, taking control away from you whenever something interesting happens and suddenly giving it back to you, with questionable results for the flow and atmosphere. I watch myself doing incredible badass stuff in cutscenes and go back to lying helplessly on my back seconds later. I have to watch long minutes of story to find myself teleported to some other place that has nothing to do with what I just experienced.

    And of course there is the main weakness of this series, the premise. The premise has always been so f*ing ridiculous that it begs for explanations that come way too slow and most of the time are huge letdowns. Here I feel once again like missed half the movie when I entered the theatre, and having played the other games and knowing the characters actually makes it *more* confusing. Yet for long hours there isn't even a hint what's going on, and I neither know where I am nor how I got there, what I'm looking for and why. Maybe the game will explain later why the player character seems so completely clueless and emotionally disconnected, but he certainly doesn't help.

    More than in other entries I grew bored of the actual gameplay loop where 2 hours in felt like I've fought the same enemies and searched the same furniture for much longer, and the combat is a tiresome affair with lot of automatisms and quick time events that, once again, take away control and immersion and feel like work.

    While the design and atmosphere are great, and the story as confusing as intruiging, the bad port, design flaws and the weird refusal of the game to let me play it because it wants it's oh so cinematic moments made me stop playing this even faster than the other entries. A fan of the series might be delighted, but should play it on the consoles it was made for, and with a controler.    … Expand

    Oynanış ve tema olarak birbirlerinden farklılar. Bazıları aksiyon bazıları bulmaca ağırlıklı. Hatta bir bölüm boyunca ve sonundaki boss savaşında silah dahi kullanmıyoruz.
    Hikaye olarak fena değildi, baş düşmanın motivasyonu yerindeydi ama son bölüm hariç neredeyse hiç görmedik.
    Köy atmosferi güzeldi ama ben 2, 3 ve 7'deki sürekli peşimizden gelen boss'ların verdiği tedirginlik hissini daha çok seviyorum.
    Bunun yanında 7 ve 2'nin aksine oyunda cephane ve envanter alanı çoktu. Cephane sıkıntısı neredeyse hiç yaşamadım, ateş ederken mermi saymadım.
    Tabanca hariç diğer silahları kullanmak çok zevkliydi. Tabancadaki oturaklılık hissi 2'ye göre hiç yoktu. Düşmanların parçalanma efekti de kaldırılmış.
    İlk 4 boss ve bölüm arasında en sevdiğim fabrikalı olandı.
    İkincisi uzun kadınlı ama ondan değil güve sürüsüne dönüşen kızlarından dolayı. Oyunun her bölümünde bir ana boss bir kaç tane yan boss oluyor. Onlar da iyiydi hakikaten.
    Her bölüm bittikten sonra köye dönüp yeni yerlere erişip loot yapıyoruz. Alışveriş yaptığımız dük ilginçti.

    Resident Evil Village is a jewel that enters directly to the Top 5 of the saga.
    And yes, RE8 > RE7.

    *STORY*: Set a few years after the chilling events of the acclaimed Resident Evil 7, this brand new story opens with Ethan Winters and his wife Mia living peacefully in a new place, far from past nightmares. However, just as they are beginning their new life together, tragedy strikes again.

    Narratively well spun, modifying the origin of the saga and creating the future of the saga at the same time, it's a show where everything is millimetrically thought out.
    Why not 5 stars? Because of the lack of use of some characters that showed a lot of potential and, in the end, were left wanting more screen time.

    *GAMEPLAY*: Practically identical to its predecessor, but this time polished and expanded, it is simply perfect.

    *GRAPHICS*: While something more graphically impressive was expected, it's still a beast, and artistically it's the best of 2021 without a doubt.

    *SOUND*: This time the soundtrack takes a step aside to give more relevance to the sound effects... And how well it does it.
    The Spanish dubbing, again, very good.

    *INNOVATION: Resident Evil Village is not what we expected: it's something better.
    Clearly inspired by Resident Evil 4, one of its best installments, we are facing another of the pillars of the series that takes RE7 and simply takes it further.    … Expand

    Me declaro fan absoluto de la nueva dirección que ha cogido Capcom con la saga, tanto los remakes como el 7 y el 8, me ha parecido un juego super variado, con una mezcla perfecta entre supervivencia y acción, se parece por momentos al 4 y siendo este junto con el 7 mis resident preferidos, este no podía estar muy lejos del podio, un gran juego sin duda.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The game is a big disappointment after RE Biohazard.

    Pros.:
    - Characters of Duke, Lady D., her daughters.
    - Further development of Ethan's story, its closure.
    - Some connections to the original RE storyline.
    - Exploration and some small things to upgrade (weapons, food, etc.). That makes gameplay more interesting.
    - Village and Eastern Europe entourage.
    - The possibility to 'pause' the exploration of the main storyline and explore the surroundings.
    - The blend of RE4 and RE2 regarding explorations and gems.
    - The doll boss and the puzzle to 'escape the room' task. Direct reference to Clancy's 'Birthday' puzzle and Clancy's misfortune. Also, scary and disgusting moment.

    And now we go to cons. Many many cons.:
    - Too short with lady D. and daughters, too easy.
    - Need to have access to all the loot and animals locations regardless you left them or not.
    - Too much crafting. It's not the same waste Fallout 4 was exploiting but still. In the original you could find the ammo and stuff. Here the developers probably thought "wait a second, it's the village in the Eastern Europe, you can't find all that ammo. Let's do some crafting. Yeah, scrap metal everywhere". Well. Even with the original Racoon City it was odd to see all that loot. But that's RE. We love it for it.
    - Redesign of Chris's face again. It's just a facepalm. They just can't pay the same people who were in 2017 to use their features? Really? Why the hell do you need to change faces over and over again from game to game? It's idiocy. It's just retarded way of the development. Pay 200 shekels and use old Mia and Chris's faces. They didn't even pay to show Evelin's face, mimics. What a dumb cut scene when she was floating above the river talking to Ethan! The were so lazy to add any animation.
    - Another idiocy is going into blockbuster style. Again. We loved RE Biohazard because it was cameral isolated environment just like IN THE ORIGINAL RE, RE0 and RE2. We love franchise because of this. Not because of CoD style gameplay like in RE5, 6 or here in the second half of the game.
    - They used only ONE book and a bunch of photos to refer to the old Umbrella corp. and the issue of Spencer. Bravo. Just bravo. Nobody knew anything, Miranda didn't give a damn about Umbrella. It's just Spencer was inspired by her research. And never mentioned her. Anywhere. For the last seven+ games. It's idiocy. Do you even have scriptwriters who PLAYED the games? Why couldn't you connect the events of Las Plagas and Spencer and his company? It was easy: Umbrella and Spencer tried to hire the promising researcher he remembered from the previous years but she refused saying she was busy. Spencer did some research using his fellas (maybe even Wesker) and revealed Miranda works on mold that is a 'parasyte' organism. In a way similar to Las Plagas. Spencer rejects the idea of further development but Wesker takes it into account while creating Uroboros. Bingo!
    - The game takes too much from Prey. RE is actually System Shock style game (first SS was released before first RE, but SS is an FPS and RE was a 3d person survival adventure horror). So, coming to FPS especially when the main character is mold - direct reference to Prey and their mimics. In the Louisiana environment and mysterious events with the Baker family it was fine. But here with more action it looks too obvious.

    So, the game worth playing. But it's a step down from RE Biohazard. Story is much dumber, less promising, less touching, less interesting. And the ending is garbage. I would rather play a game entirely in the castle and with lady Dimitrescu as a main villain than this.    … Expand

    In terms of story, the game is at the highest possible level. Gameplay is enjoyable as always. Capcom did the job for a medal. The only drawback I encountered was the slow pace of the game, when it was below 30FPS, which made the dialogues start too quickly in relation to the game.

    My first resident evil game as well as my first review.
    There was a lot of hype surrounding this game and i decided that I might as well jump in and see if the series is worth my time. To answer this question; absolutely. The game looks fantastic and the sound design is top notch (but that is to be expected with most triple A game titles these days) and i didn't experience a single bug in    My first resident evil game as well as my first review.

The game looks fantastic and the sound design is top notch (but that is to be expected with most triple A game titles these days) and i didn't experience a single bug in the entire play through. This game does a great job at setting the stage and things can get really intense at times, especially in the early game. Late game you become kind of unstoppable so the fear kind of takes a sharp dive. Regardless, most enemies won't go down too easily and weapons have a decent feel and weight, as well as enemy reactions feeling nice and heavy for the most part. The characters are also all very intriguing and the story never really gets dull. I think that this is more of an action/adventure game than survival horror but it does and great job regardless. This game is also quite short; I explored extensively and it only took me around 10 hours to finish the game on normal difficulty. Overall this is a very good game and for me it was a nice introduction to the RE franchise. I will definitely be checking out RE7 due to my experience with this game. This earns an 8.3 for me because of the length of the game and the fact that it became a little too easy on normal difficulty. That being said, I still think it is well worth the purchase and is a great introduction to the series for myself.    … Expand

    - ¿Quieres un survival horror? Lo tendrás.
    - ¿Quieres acción? La tendrás.
    - ¿Quieres miedo? Lo tendrás.
    - ¿Tienes todas las armas rebosantes de munición para poder defenderte? Tranquilo, la vas a pasar mal igual.
    - ¿Quieres un buen juego? Bueno, juega y juzga.

    Es increíble lo bien cohesionada que está la historia de este juego con el lore de todo Resident Evil, considerando que los acontecimientos están situados en una localización tan aislada. Ovaciones para el director, el escritor, y el equipo supervisor.

    Para exprimir la experiencia narrativa de este juego recomiendo haber jugado previamente Resident Evil Remake, Resident Evil 4, Resident Evil 5, y bueno, dado que es secuela directa, mínimo Resident Evil 7 (Ojalá todos los numéricos). Lo agradecerás cuando notes las referencias. Si no es así no importa, te mearás encima igual.

    Un juego brillante, de esos poquitos que casi no hay, y para destacar aún más: Es un AAA, de esos que tienden a flaquear debido a las malas decisiones corporativas que involucran el manejo de la trama en la fase de diseño. --> Es como si para Capcom Resident Evil 6 nunca hubiera ocurrido (Es mi favorito en jugabilidad, pero es indiscutible que se les fue la olla con la puesta en escena de la trama).

    Me crié jugando todos los Resident Evil, y si este no es el mejor de todos, es el segundo mejor.
    ¿Deberías jugar Resident Evil Village? Hermano/a, buenas noticias, porque hoy es un buen día para estar vivo.
    Un juego hecho con amor incondicional.

    Pretty good game overall, definitely some parts that feel a little disjoined but I liked most of it. Definitely worth playing at least once though, even if you aren't a Resident Evil fan. I preferred RE7 to this game but its kind of like comparing Survival Horror to Action/Horror. It's more personal preference genre wise. Although Jack Baker > Lady D at least as far as character development.

    Ram: 16GB DDR4 2666
    RTX 2070 NON Max Q nonsense
    Windows 10 RT

    PC Features, RTX Reflections only, Higher Shadows Quality, Resolution Support, Ultrawide support etc.

    Performance: Max with RTX enabled, 35 to 45 with massive dips or mini freezes here mostly due to RE Engine over utilizing the V ram. RTX disabled Fps sits at 50 to 65 easy.

    RTX Thoughts, For whatever reason, the developers went with RTX reflections only and while they are good they are not impressive by any means. In my opinion it is best to disable RTX entirely on this game. In fact I'd be hard pressed to enable RTX in any enabled game right now as the results are just not that great or too intensive for what they are.

    Plot: Character: Ethan Winters 2nd time in Series
    What happens? Ethan's supposed wife Mia is shot and killed by Chris Redfield and Baby Rose Kidnapped and taken to a village to be given to a cult leader who wants to raise her dead daughter from within and use Roses body parts to form a connection.

    How long is it? If you go slow the game can last 12 to 13 hours, I took my time and completed it in 18 hours lol as also Died a few times of course.

    Thoughts? Honestly rather annoyed, Lady D haunted our screens for MONTHS, we all thought she was playing a MAJOR role in Village and she is at best in the game for 30 minutes if that. Her Daughters don't even get me started on those brats, they are in the game for 10 minutes at best. I was rather annoyed with this, Lady D haunted all of screens for months, trailers all pointed to her being a big baddie for us to run from and Nope. Now of course Youtubers of all sorts will make an hour video of them just running around being chased by her and Lady D repeating the same 5 lines over and over and over again as she just didn't record much. It's a shame really, the Developers, Trailers, Game play videos all made it sound like she was to be a Huge plot device but nope 30 minutes and... She Gone. Disappointing as all H.

    Price: 65$ NOT worth the price at all, If you enjoyed 7 you will maybe like this, I for one hated my time with it. Now there were a couple areas and people I enjoyed such as the doll area and the big guy salesman. I loved the Ethan winters story line in 7 but 8 is just horrible.    … Expand

What you miss out on is the intimate horror of Biohazard, but in return, you get a very intricately designed world with some truly grotesque enemies and bosses. It doesn’t completely shy away from horror (one part in particular terrified me), but it’s definitely not the focus.

    11/10 and here is why:
    I don't like residents in 1st person view, re7 - example, re7 is not bad, but re2re is much much better. But Re8 is an another story, Capcom understand that 1st person view is only for dynamic shooters, not for jsut slow walking + puzzling - re7. So in RE8 they did faster gameplay as a shooter + they saved atmospher from re7 and improved it + added some things from    11/10 and here is why:

So in RE8 they did faster gameplay as a shooter + they saved atmospher from re7 and improved it + added some things from re4 + puzzling much better designed for 1st view. RE8 it's a brilliant horror shooter with good story and characters + tiny of RPG. Graphics and Design are really at very high level, scripts are not so easy to recognize. In gameplay very less void zones, if enabling brain you will not get bored till the end. My favorite location is Castle ofcourse, i love vintage and castle visual disign are incredible + heisenberg's working gear wheels in the same game!. But i expected actually more from it (in gameplay parts i mean of the castle) And the game is big, much bigger than re3...). I actually though while played, so where the game's end??!? Residents never was open world like RDR2 or Days gone or even Horizon. But i replay RE8 5 times at different difficulties and want more (Btw i did speedruns and can tell that speedrun actually kill the game especially atmosphere). One of criteria of a really good game is replayability, when you wanting to replay game after you end it. Secret shop as usual for RE games changing style of playing/walkthrough.
    Im not RE super fan, but i love classic re2 and Nemesis/Veronica and played on CRT TV in them, so while playing RE8: i see puzzle or closed door and think.. damn.. to open it i will spend 2 hourse of my time like in all resindents, but no, solution is in 5-10 min depends of your accuracy - and this is very good for 1st person game.
    Some times i even read minds from developers while playing re8. I though they wanted to do doom eternal finishig moves on lycans but they do it on you ;). And after i end the game i had tones of exciting emotions and saw titles to the end, the last game did this to me was Horizon zero dawn.

    Want to add that Re2re and RE8 it's a very different games, Re8 it's a big step forward from Capcom in 1st person horror and in horror overall. And i can congratulate you Capcom finally you did your first brilliant 1st person horror as you always wanted to do, starting from PS1 games...)

    And now im waiting Code Veronica Remake in 3rd person..:)    … Expand

The game has more action than resident evil 7 (not a bad thing), it balances perfectly horror and action, creating a unique playability, in the entire game the atmosphere flows between the two of them, switching depending the areas and enemies. The bossfights were great, except one of them.
    The story is sophisticated, interesting and thrilling, the rhytm is a bit slow in some parts but not for too long, as you advance in the game you will fell like if you were in a fable. The characters and antagonists are pretty nice, the most charismatic one is Karl Heisenberg, on the other hand, Ethan becomes a more interesting character in this one playing the role of father.
    Something bad about the gameplay, the enemies moves by zones,what i mean with this is that if you walk away of an specific area were some enemies appear they will inmediatly turn and get away from there.
    Personally, i really enjoyed the game, there is people saying that the game is too short, the game lasts 10 hours and if we have in mind the replayability and the extra mode "the mercenaries" that is going to give us a lot more hours (like every resident evil game). I extremely recommend this game if you liked resident evil 7 or resident evil 4, for me was one of the best RE games on the saga, at least in the top 5.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Resident Evil Village is one of the best game in this long RE franchise.

    The characters are really unique and some have their backstory, Ethan Winters (the guy we played) really have developed from the events of RE 7 (the bakers incident), he freaks out sometimes but most of the time he talks **** and challanged the boss which i found quite funny, The bosses are also very unique in their own way and i'm glad their backstory was explained not from some cutscene, the best boss was probably Karl Heissenberg which was the last of the 4 lords, Lady D have the look but Heissenberg have the personality and charisma, Donnie and angie boss fight section was the scariest part of the game and i see this part is probably what Silent Hill could have been.

    The gun gameplay is nice and the puzzle rewards was very rewarding, The Duke merchant was also a nice thing to add.

    The Chris Redfield part was great and i get some of DOOM vibes while playing him, although i really wish capcom makes it longer.

    Pros:
    1.Great action/horror game
    2.Great gameplay
    3.NGL but grown up rose kinda pretty
    4.Perfect emotional scene

    Cons:
    1.Not much ammo tho, in my case, sometimes i have few ammo left after defeating boss or stronger enemies.

    Resident Evil really has built itself from the ground up. I gave the previous game a 7.5, but this game deserves a solid 8. It really has gone back to its old roots that has made it good and they kept the characters making it more of a series than normal. I loved the voice acting and gameplay, it was not as scary, but because I was able to fight more than 7, I enjoyed it more.

(there is an area in the game where I was REALLY scared the WHOLE time....and turned off the sound to manage to go through....), some relaxing moments where you craft ammunition or just look around when the bad guys are dead, Exploration etc. It has a huge replay value! Graphics, Sound, Story telling and controls are fantastic. You cant compare it to RE4 but I think both games are fantastic. RE 4 in my opinion a better protagonist, Leon is more interesting and this makes the game a bit better! But this is only personal taste.

The internal mechanics are inconsistent, with one enemy type (flies) being vulnerable to something when convienent, and invulnerable to it when inconvienent. Many aspects of the story fail under any level of scrutiny, such as where did all the people come from to be monsterized? They even go full magic at various times, and not just for bosses. It also suffers from cut-scene-itis, with far too many locking you from actually being able to play the game. The lycan slobbering on your face one is particularly annoying, and does not give any way to cut it short as it did back in RE:4. In fact I would not even call this a RE game, this is something else with a few of the trappings of the RE franchise.

    The silly part is that the devs want you to play this multiple times, yet did not build the game with nearly enough randomization to keep it interesting. So on subsequent playthroughs it gets old pretty fast. People keep claiming this is the spiritual successor to RE:4, but if so, it is the idiot cousin as RE:4 has far more engaging mechanics, and combat that is far more satisfying due to variety of combinations. In RE:Village, it just gets very bullet spongy.

    One noteworthy bug is that the "lycans" (which are allergic to flour apparently) animation does not play properly, so you have to start your block about 1 second early.    … Expand

A colleague of mine who's played every game found these two parts annoying and just flat in its delivery of what he enjoys from these games: puzzles, crazy zombies/bosses, and fear. And I cant disagree with him. How you beat Heisenberg almost felt as ridiculous as chris punching boulders all over again. and Being Chris with endless bullets and grenades that take everything down instantly is just... well boring.

    Great addition to the RE-series. This one is more action focused, which worked out well as the gunplay is good. Addresses some of the issues I had with the RE-games (the old ones they made remakes of), "tyrants" are now fun and interesting to face (they were just an annoyance in the old games). No more ridiculous difficulty levels where missing one bullet means the game needs to be restarted. No more "over-the-top" puzzles. Some might call this a bad thing, but I think the changes are for the good - the more interesting story and enjoyable fighting has replaced what was previously padded out with frustrating sections that was just hard for the sake of slowing down your progression.

    Gives you a bit of a taste of different horror genres and lots of interesting characters with a unique feel to them. Its really hard to find to something to complain about in this game. Perhaps I would have liked a bit more enemy variety and some cooler weapons to play with, its mostly rather traditional stuff. But what is there is pretty perfectly done.    … Expand

    It's anything but not Resident Evil.
    For me, this is a disappointment that started with Resident Evil 7

    White person village this time around... nobody cries. An actual story with the mindless combat this time around woot! Graphics... same as re7... Decent ride I am not sure in this day and age you should charge full price for 10 hours of content even if it is decent but this is a RE fanboy (Me) 9/10 Everyone else 7/10. Worth a play for everyone at half the price, a must have for RE fans.

    Resident Evil Village
    Adding greatness and taking it away
    I loved Resident Evil Village. While it didn’t take resident evil 7s place as my favorite resident evil game, it came pretty close. Resident evil village is a mix of the old and a mix of the new.. This is a first person survival horror game with more of an emphasis on weapons than purely sneaking and sriviving.. which works in    Resident Evil Village

    I loved Resident Evil Village.
    While it didn’t take resident evil 7s place as my favorite resident evil game, it came pretty close.
    Resident evil village is a mix of the old and a mix of the new.. This is a first person survival horror game with more of an emphasis on weapons than purely sneaking and sriviving.. which works in this setting, but I would’ve liked this to be more gradual.
    Here once again like in resident evil 7 you play as ethan winters, searching for his daughter rose after their home is ambushed and the both of you are kidnapped, you find yourself in a village full of vampire meets werewolf character, and its so refreshing to not deal with lame zombies or mold creatures.. these enemies are terrifying when you first run into them… but I woulve loved a gradual lead up to actually getting some weapons in hand muck like in resident evil 7.. sneaking around this village, sneaking through the castle trying not to get caught as you got the items you needed, until finally you get a weapon, blast your way out of the castle and destroy the enemies in the village.. instead I almosti mmediatly felt untouchable.. which really killed the scary aspect of village for me.. there were definitely erie moments here for me.. but I never felt terrified the way I did in past resident evil games.. but as a more action almost first person devil may cry feeling game… village is great.. and I absolutely love the attention to detail and variety here… resident evil village is constantly switching up the areas as you set out to take down multiple targets in a vastly different setting from eachother.. theres so much to collect, find and upgrade like the older resident evil games, with the map color indicator letting you know when you’ve grabbed everything, and these a shop that just pops up along your journey to upgrade your weapons, buy ammo, or sell these crystals you pick up off of enemies, really giving you incentive to be aggressive here.. trying to afford all of the upgrades you can for your weapons..
    Resident evil village does get a little lame and obring in its final stretch. .but they all do.. but not nearly as bad as 7 biohazard… if youre ready for resident evil to get back to the way it used to but don’t want to let go the creepiness first person adds to the series.. resident evil village is a perfect mix.. I do again just wish they tried to scare me a little bit more… much like in the maiden demo… more of that mixed into resident evil village, and this couldve reached masterpiece level..
    I give Resident Evil Village

    Boss fights are bad but enemies are better than Resident Evil 7. Characters are really good. Gameplay and action is good. This is not a horror game, horror part is very short (1 hours) and it was great. This is a good survival-action game. Resident Evil Village has variety of weapons and enemies. But the horror aspect is really weak in general.

    Resident Evil Village is a successful game, that takes the best of both worlds – scary and action. An atmospheric trip to the dubious village and the adjacent manor will leave you with a lot of scars, as well as on the hands of Ethan Winters. Maybe there might have been a little less action.

    Resident Evil Village brings its vision to PC as well, and it does so in an extraordinarily effective way.

    Village is a concoction of spectacular amusements framed by an insane storyline, and this grotesque circus is varied enough for you to stay for one playthrough.
