    Cuando se suele hablar de la saga Resident Evil, se suele pensar en títulos emblemáticos como el 2 o el 4 que supieron dar un paso por delante de lo que se venia haciendo anteriormente, logrando así que la saga siguiera teniendo vigencia tanto en buenas criticas como en venta; entonces llega la entrega número 7 con un cambio muy importante como lo es pasar a jugar en primera persona,Cuando se suele hablar de la saga Resident Evil, se suele pensar en títulos emblemáticos como el 2 o el 4 que supieron dar un paso por delante de lo que se venia haciendo anteriormente, logrando así que la saga siguiera teniendo vigencia tanto en buenas criticas como en venta; entonces llega la entrega número 7 con un cambio muy importante como lo es pasar a jugar en primera persona, tratando, de manera afectiva, regresar a lo que fue en sus inicios un "Survival Horror".
    Creo, en mi humilde opinión, que lo han logrado. Tiene un gran inicio dejando estándares muy altos para el resto del juego que luego no logra mantener en su totalidad, no logran generar esa tensión en todo momento (No se mantiene el ritmo).
    La historia logra mantener al jugador a la expectativa de lo que va a pasar, ademas de integrar tomas de decisiones que alteran su curso final.
    Como conclusión final he de decir que Resident Evil 7 ha llegado en el mejor momento y que de ser este el rumbo a seguir en la saga, por lo menos por un par de títulos más y perfeccionando la técnica, solo nos queda esperar grandes títulos y quién sabe tal vez un nuevo integrante a la lista de los mejores resident ´s.

    I love this game and every thing it does to improve the resident evil formula. The only downside is that the main character Ethan is not that great of a character. But I’m aright that that’s the only downside of the game

But this game, it's special, why? because it's the first time they've focused on the first person (leaving aside the failure of RE: Survivor) it should be clarified that they also did not focus on the "typical zombies" that we always see, but decided to focus everything on the Baker family (so as not to produce a spoiler, it's better for you to play it). The story is gripping, interesting and intriguing. The characters, some are memorable, others are not and, in my opinion, I loved their designs, the gameplay can sometimes be a bit rough and the puzzles are mostly easy so it's not a challenge. To finish, I want to turn my attention to the boss fights, of which I found them excellent and terrifying. In conclusion, Capcom did an excellent job on this new installment and also to bring new news that I hope to see in its games to futures Expand

    I did not play this in VR which would probably have raised it's score. The first half of this game is as close to perfect as you can get in my opinion. Then, the 2nd half completely falls off a cliff and you can tell they were rushing to finish this project. Still, the first half of this game is so good that it got my Game of The Year for 2017.

    It’s the most memorable RE game after CODE: VERONICA. And I believe after it every RE games will be just normal games and it will not have this moody style again and that’s sad to think about, because I’ve seen VILLAGE and what they plan to do in the future games ):

    I think RE7's graceful return to form is something worthy of the praise this titles received since its release in 2017, but while its changes are definitely something to be appreciated, especially after RE5 AND RE6 simply followed the grain of what was popular at the time, most of them fall flat in my opinion.

    I think RE7's graceful return to form is something worthy of the praise this titles received since its release in 2017, but while its changes are definitely something to be appreciated, especially after RE5 AND RE6 simply followed the grain of what was popular at the time, most of them fall flat in my opinion.

    Resident Evil 7 is the 800th entry in the long running Resident Evil franchise, and it's the first mainline game since the PlayStation 1 to focus solely on the horror, ever since Resident Evil 4 on the GameCube and PS2, the series has been going further and further into action, culminating in a visually loud yet shallow Resident Evil 6 back in 2012. The poor reception to which, made Capcom took a break from the series for 5 years getting their collective sh*t together for the next mainline entry, and they succeeded in bringing the series back to what made it standout in the first place.

    RE7 follow all around good guy, Ethan Winters, in a Blair Witch inspired first person Louisiana house looking for his wife Mia, in his search he meets such friendly faces as Jack Baker, the crazed, seemingly unkillable patriarch of the family, who is as funny in his dialogue as he is absolutely terrifying in gameplay. Marguerite Baker, the weird bug lady person who's dedicated section had my skin crawling with all the creepy buzzing sounds and bugs, Lucas Baker, who's just kind of insane, Grandma, who is Grandma, and Zoe Baker, your only friend and kind of hot partner in the Baker house... Look I'm not saying Ethan should've saved her over Mia I'm just saying I'd have liked to without getting the bad ending. This lovely Texas Chainsaw Massacre inspired family will be your main adversaries in the game and the only ones worth mentioning because the Molded honestly kinda suck.

    While I love the game, I can't help but think I'd have liked it more if it wasn't in first person, it's not terrible but considering the REmakes we got around the same time with RE2 and RE3 which were third person, I can't help but want that for these games too. Capcom not helping matters with their weird adamant refusal to show Ethan's face so we can "project ourselves onto him" well he has a wife so already I can't do that, and besides, I don't want to project myself onto Ethan I want Ethan to be his own character, the reason Chris, Leon, Jill and Claire are so beloved is because they're all their own larger than life characters, screw Ethan's relatability, Chris is a special forces officer, turned anti Bio Organic Weapon soldier WHO PUNCHES BOULDERS AND HAS A HOT SISTER, that's what I want in my main character, not to feel like ME, I don't like ME, I like CHRIS REDFIELD.

    All that being said, Resident Evil 7 is a great game and though Capcom fell short of following it up in the recent Resident Evil 8, I hope RE9 goes back to a primarily horror focus and we can all bond over our mutual love of pissing ourselves terrified.

After having enjoyed that game and reading good reviews, I decided to go back and give RE7 a chance. I'm so glad I did. I've played horror games before, but this game absolutely terrified me in a way no other medium ever could. No book, no movie even came close. The plot starts out chaotic at first with vibes of Texas Chainsaw Massacre and a family of insane rednecks, but you soon realize the rabbit hole goes much deeper. I loved the idea of using mold instead of a virus or parasite. Black mold is horrifying enough already as it is, and it makes for some chilling location and monster designs. The various locations are all themed differently, with the intro being about abduction, the second location paying homage to classic backwater horror movies, the basement being all about mold and monsters, one location about insects and another putting you through a series of Saw like traps while a maniac toys with you. The final levels are then more combat oriented. This is one of the weaker points of the game, though luckily the plot begins to make sense by then, and the final revelations are actually quite tragic. The only real letdown is the final boss fight. By then we feel some sympathy for the main villain, and a more story driven conclusion may have been more impactful instead of a cliché special effects driven fight. Or maybe one more confrontation with the family, or a character one disappoints in a pivotal scene. But this is a small nitpick. The only other thing I didn't like was inventory management. I felt this was handled much more efficiently in the remakes. But overall the game is fantastic and unlike any horror game out there. Even in 2020 this game is still great. Expand

    - Level Design is excellent in the first part of the adventure (House, barn, the wood house in the swamp)
    - The atmosphere is very good ; the sound, the colorimetry, the luminosity and the differents environment make it all really creepy
    - a fairly pleasant feeling of progres(new weapons, the keys, new abilitys like reloading faster...)
    - Some bossfights are very cool...
    - the FPS view is very well brought in this opus.

    ------------

    - The Level design at the second parts of the adventure is really less inspiring
    - the bestiary is poor and not very original and striking for a Resident Evil
    - Some bossfights less memorable

    Capcom brought Resident Evil back in its lineage of survival horror. A seventh opus that we will not forget before the release of Resident Evil (8) Village.

    Excelente juego de terror, aunque creo que no tiene nada que ver con los Resident Evil anteriores, forzadamente nombrado y conectado a la saga de zombies y armas bio orgánicas. Este juego pudo haber brillado con luces propias sin utilizar el nombre de la franquicia.

    Resident Evil 7: biohazard is a triumphant return to the survival horror genre for Capcom, bringing forth a new gameplay perspective while maintaining the dread-infused atmosphere of the first three games.

    The game takes place in the Baker's Estate and with that comes a fresh environment of grimy architecture and the terrifying presence of the Baker family, a family of chemically altered psychopaths in the vein of the Texas Chainsaw Massacre. Another new enemy coming along with this game is the Molded, a group of faceless monster coming in all shapes and sizes to keep the player on edge at all times (for as long as possible). The score is fantastic and atmospheric, the gameplay is suitably challenging for each play style and the inventory brings a sense of required organisation and panic when in enemy encounters/boss battles. The story also brings a certain new flavour to the series, taking you out of the biohazard prevention, militaristic world and more into the eyes of an every man, just trying to survive the night.

    My gripes for the game come in the form of the repetitive nature of the Molded encounters, they really lose their fear factor after a short period of time as you will constantly be appearing and after the player has discovered their weaknesses, they become close to not a challenge at all. But in short, this is a good game, like really good, and is such a well realised breath of fresh air for the RE franchise and makes me more pumped than ever for the future of the series.

    This is really the direction all future RE games should follow. The atmosphere is tense, the characters are minimal but memorable. A very good game for those who are fond of the horror genre. My only complaint is that the game is rather short (I've finished it in about 7-8 hours) and there doesn't seem to be a real incentive to play it again.

    Great story, great ambientation, great horror elements and the extra contente os excepcional!
    If I had one negative critique it would be the lack of construction to the main carachter, but hey, we got Mia (that is extremely well constructed).
    I want to play this game over and over, it never gets old.

I liked this game enough to buy all the DLC and also to Platinum the main game. The Mad House mode is one of the most difficult runs I've ever done in any game which made completing it and popping the Platinum all the sweeter. This is my second favorite RE game next to RE2 Remake.

    The final chapters of the game aren't quite as good as the early game and the story leaves a lot up in the air that seems like it may be answered in RE8 based on the trailers for that game. Many of the DLC modes are entertaining as well though some modes are insanely difficult.

    It’s like Texas Chainsaw Massacre meets Silent Hill 2. To be honest, I wasn’t expecting this game to be what it is. I grew up with the original RE games, complete with their cumbersome tank controls. RE7 relies less on jump scares and more on atmosphere to drill in a constant fear. RE7 is more reminiscent of Silent Hill 2 in how it executes this. I had my doubts about a FPS RE game but this may be my favorite game in the series. Highly recommended.

The inventory management is just as great as ever nothing really bad about this game I can say at all, except for the enemy variation is very lackluster only a couple different enemy types and they all look exactly the same got tired of the molten very fast, but the main characters are what held the game together and drew me in. Deffinetly pick this game up, is very cheap nowadays, and is vr compatable on ps4 and makes the game even scarier, my favorite psvr game to date this game was made for vr. Check it out Expand

    Absolute masterpiece. I played it once and found it too scary and felt I wasn't making progression. Coupled with me dipping my feet in RE5 (hated it), I just chalked the RE series as something not for me. On a whim, I played RE2 remake (twice!) and I finally understand what the series had to offer. Deliberate and tight level design and gameplay. I fell in love with RE2 but the story wasAbsolute masterpiece. I played it once and found it too scary and felt I wasn't making progression. Coupled with me dipping my feet in RE5 (hated it), I just chalked the RE series as something not for me. On a whim, I played RE2 remake (twice!) and I finally understand what the series had to offer. Deliberate and tight level design and gameplay. I fell in love with RE2 but the story was kind of simplistic and felt like a B movie. RE2 is easier to get into as the third person perspective is less scary than first person. Then I played RE3 and hated it.

    So I found myself giving RE7 another go, and although it's a scary game, it never felt like there were cheap scares for the sake of cheap scares. The gameplay works really well in first person. The level design is tight, with most rooms having so much personality. The shooting is good, although you feel more underpowered than RE2. The story shines through here, with so many elements coming together in the end in a very satisfying way. Graphics, just wow, best lighting I've ever seen. Sound design is on another level. Each boss has such amazing thematic atmosphere built around it.

    Negatives: I prefer a shorter and tighter experience, and the final area felt a bit unncessary. The moulded generally have a lot less personality than than zombies, but the boss fights in RE7 are an absolute highlight so it makes up for it. Felt a lot scarier in the beginning so will put off people who don't persevere. I hate the 'boss who roams' around mechanic, it adds atmosphere but from a gameplay perspective is a pain.

    If this is your first RE7, I'd recommend playing the RE2 remake as it'll help a lot of the concepts make sense if you're new to the survival horror genre, while being less intimidating.

    من الآخر:

    1- اللعبة رجعت لطابع الرعب عكس الأكشن في الأجزاء السابقة بالأخص أن طريقة اللعب تغيرت وصارت منطور أول واللي يساعد بشكل كبير في هذا الشي.
    2- العبة فيها أكثر من نهاية وبشكل عام قدمت طريقة لعب فريدة باستخدام البليستيشن في آر.
    3- بيئة اللعبة جميلة وتعيش اللاعب أجواء الرعب في الأرياف الأمريكية.

    Admittedly, I was put off by the news of a change to a first-person style. I had grown accustomed to RE being third-person for two decades, and as this was the latest addition in the core RE series, I was concerned. I am happy to say that this game is brilliant.

    Once again in a Resident Evil game, the story is not good but it's not an important part of the game either, no need to analyze it.
    Same goes for the characters, although the Baker family are very creepy and interesting antagonists, particularly Jack Baker, one of the most threatening yet fun antagonists in the entire series with some of the best moments in the game.
    The gameplay is okay; everything works well, the shooting mechanics are satisfying and the survival horror elements are there, however, the movement is very slow and it gets annoying when facing the Molded; the main enemy type of the game and the only enemy type of the game, unfortunately.
    The atmosphere and the setting though, are probably my favorite parts of the game; they're haunting, terrifying and disgusting, which are backed up by very good graphics and audio design.
    As for the pacing, it's mostly consistent up until the last third of the game, where it feels dragged out, but the final boss is kinda cool.

    Pros:
    + Memorable antagonists
    + Decent gameplay
    + Compelling atmosphere + Wonderful setting
    + Beautiful visuals

    - Poor enemy variety
    - Boring enemy types
