    This game is so boring, all you do is walk around and manage inventory. The only thing "Resident Evil" about this game is the title. Everything else is a total departure from the franchise including the fact that its a FPS. Hard pass, No buy!

    Game is one of the worst I've ever played. I felt like I was playing one of the most generic horror games ever made, the Resident Evil title was slapped on to sell copies. It has nothing to do with the previous 6 games or spinoffs. There's also no enemy variety, you're fighting the same blob-looking creatures over and over, and the bosses are uninspired. The ending also makes no sense.Game is one of the worst I've ever played.

    A great revamp of the series. Every so often a game series goes through an identity crisis, and thus change is needed. Yes the first person element is new, but It works really well. This game is real survival horror, and while it didnt scare me towards the end of the game, the atmosphere is presents had me putting my controller down for a bit

    I don't recommend this game. Heres my review done by parts.

    No replay value -> This game doesn't offer you a replay value cause is just the main campaign and nothing else to do. It doesn't have other modes for you to play online with your friends. There's no Mercs mode, no raid mode, nothing. Just the Story. The game is really short -> This game can be finished in less the 4 hours

    The game is really short
    -> This game can be finished in less the 4 hours if you already know where the stuff that you need are. The first time you play this game you'll probably take longer, maybe 6 hours.

    Boring story
    -> From the trailer of this game you notice that is all about a man trying to save the girl, it doesn't get any more interest than that.

    Dizziness effect
    -> There were plenty of times that I felt dizzy and like throwing up while playing this game.

    Forced first person
    -> this game doesn't offer you a third person option.

    Disconnected from the RE series
    -> without getting into any spoilers, this game feels like a standalone experience. It doesn't have anything to do with past games.

    Final thoughts about this game
    -> I wouldn't recommend to anyone to buy this at full price of $60. It's not worth it. Wait until the price drops. I feel like for what this game is and have, its price should be around either $10 or $20.

    Resident Evil 7 is an atrocious abomination of a once-great franchise. The game has no story or plot relevant to the rest of the Resident Evil universe.

    As a huge fan of the Resident Evil franchise I was eager to get my hands on this but the more I played the less I enjoyed it.

    The best hour of the game is the first hour you spend with it but this quickly wears off once you start to notice the same old pattern as you play. The game is not as open as the old school games, normally anything you find would have to kept until later on in

    The best hour of the game is the first hour you spend with it but this quickly wears off once you start to notice the same old pattern as you play. The game is not as open as the old school games, normally anything you find would have to kept until later on in the game, this means it forces you to make dangerous trips back and forth while managing your items carefully however in RE7 anything you find will most likely be used in the area you're in. I've noticed the Baker family events are scripted aswell and unlike Nemesis in RE3 is not random at all.

    At the end of the day this is a poor mans Resident Evil and being first person does not help. I'm more shocked over the "high" reviews praising the game but it's obvious Resident Evil 6 lowered expectations so much that anything after would be better.

    Yes it is a horror game and you would think it's "back to its roots" but the problem is the game is a jump scare horror game and not a survival horror game. Imagine the dog window scene in the first game stretched out over the entire game, imagine if the first game relied on those moments alone while the survival stuff was sprinkled in, that's how to describe RE7. Herbs, weapons, some enemies and the like are just added to make it seem it's a return to form when really it's not

    I'm more sad that people seem to be buying into this. Guys it's an alright game but not Resident Evil...we've just been thrown bad RE game after bad RE game that now we'll take anything we can get.

    This is not Resident Evil...this is a new IP which is chasing after the P.T crowd. Save your money and buy Yakuza 0 or wait for Horizon Zero Dawn. We can not let Capcom turn Resident Evil into something it's not. This would effect the Resident Evil 2 Remake and do you really want that?

    Haters gone Hate, O jogo está incrível, com excelente ambientação. Gráficos muito bons e otimizados, rodando a 60 fps em 1080p em todas as plataformas. O jogo tem elementos clássicos e ao mesmo tempo renova o jogo trazendo para o século 21. Não vão atrás dos HATERS e dos "pseudo fãs" saudosistas. RE7 é o retorno ao Survival horror! RE is Back.

    If I wanted to solve puzzles to unlock doors I would play Portal 2. This game is a walking simulator with tedious inventory management. This is not survival horror because when you die, you just respawn back to where you left off.

The game itself doesn't use jump scares often rather, the morbid atmosphere and sounds are what make up the tension of the game. I had to pause the game at times just to take in on what just happened! or even just the atmosphere was too much.

    There are a few mechanics which absolutely astounded me, I won't spoil but it was a random event in which an attack from an enemy caused Ethan's leg to be cut off. You're then in a state of last stand where you have to pick up the leg and use herbs to reattach it. I tried to make it happen again but alas, it was random. Its the small details like that which immersed me fully.

    All in all, I'd highly recommend this game for any horror/resident evil fan.

Los personajes son calcos a los fanáticos de "La Matanza de Texas", por lo que la originalidad se va al 0% en este caso, los enemigos son escasísimos en variedad, los sustos predecibles y las localizaciones muy inferiores a lo visto en títulos anteriores.

    Una de las cosas que más choca es el viraje extremo de la visión en tercera persona de siempre a la visión en primera persona, a la que muchos no estamos 100% acostumbrados y que elimina de un plumazo algo que distinguía a todas las entregas de la saga: poder ver a tu personaje y observar su comportamiento, su estado físico, etc. Eso se ha perdido por completo y ahora estamos ante uno más de esa incesante oleada de títulos first person que nos ahogan desde hace años.

    Gráficamente es normalito, no estamos ante ninguna maravilla tecnológica, puesto que hay que tener en cuenta que se ha debido limitar gráficamente para adaptarlo al uso del Playstation VR.

    El sonido es algo de lo más normalito en este tipo de juegos, centrado en ofrecer ambientación, tensión y susto fácil para los que caigan en eso.

    Una cosa buena que tiene es el regreso de los puzzles desafiantes, algo que se echaba de menos en entregas anteriores centradas más en la acción (para desgracia de muchos), pero no es lo suficientemente importante para aportar luz a este desastre.

    Es un juego para jugar como curiosidad, medianamente disfrutable, pero que es superado ampliamente por los originales a los que copia. Alien Isolation, por ejemplo, juego del que coge muchísimos elementos ambientales, te hace sentir muchísima más angustia que este título.

    Fail en toda regla para lo que podía haber sido el regreso triunfal de la saga, una oportunidad perdida por parte de Capcom que fulmina la saga con un título que no tiene nada que ver con los anteriores salvo por pequeños retazos y que dejan entrever que la compañía nipona está más por el dinero fácil que por el contentar a los seguidores de esta prolífica saga.

Another thing that I wish they added to the game is DIY weapons, like you find parts here and there and then you have to make them into working weapon. Last complain is the VR really messed with your brain, make you extremely dizzy after an hour or two. Best played on a TV screen. I hope this success won't make Capcom lazy for the next installment, and rather become even more enthusiastic to create even better survival horror. 8.5/10 should be the right score for this game.

    The atmosphere doesn't fit with Resident Evil at all, I'm not saying is bad for a horror game, but in a Resident Evil game doesn't fit at all, in the older games you were on mansions, castles, police stations... all those places have kind of rich and decadent look, the location on this one however is just a redneck house full of rubbish.

    The mechanics are kinda mix of Alien Isolation meets Clock Tower, which is not bad, but again is not Resident Evil roots, and as I said before, all the other elements like, limited resources or puzzles are in almost every survival horror game, so it doesn't make it more Resident Evil.

    The Bakers are just lame, I remember when in RE2 you were chased by MrX or in RE3 you were chased by Nemesis, those two were intimidating, you knew you wouldn't survive a fight against them, on this game however you get a redneck family that wear shovels... they're pathetic.

    The camera is a point were everyone should agree, I don't like it but is not the first camera change on the franchise they already did in games like RE Survivor for the PS1 or in RE4 onwards (though it wasn't a first person point of view), anyway the camera change in this case is to make it more similar to modern/generic horror games and to sell more VR, in other words just a gimmick to get more people buy the game and the VR.

    Also... Were are the characters? The older Resident Evil games were full of characters aside from the antagonist, you had partners, maybe they weren't well writted at all (somebody wants a Jill sandwich?), but to be fair that was part of the essence, Resident Evil was like a B movie all along full of memorable characters. On this one you have your generic faceless protagonist (thank god at least he has a name), the rednecks (aka Leatherface family), your possesed girlfriend and the black guy (who like in all horror movies dies first) and that's all...

    The story is a mess, it isn't related to the franchise in any way, is a mix between Texas Chainsaw Massacre and Evil Death, the paranormal stuff is completely out of place, I don't care they try to give it an explanation, they just put that garbage that doesn't fit in a Resident Evil game and tried to get out with it with some lame excuse.

    I can't say everything about this game is wrong, but I can't put a grade higher than 4 because it isn't a Resident Evil, because Capcom lied to all Resident Evil fans (once again) and to be fair is just another generic horror game... By all the means disappointing. If they wanted to create a new IP they should have done it, instead of doing a DMC all over again.

    It has been quite some time since I've looked forward to a new Resident Evil game. But there was something about 7 which had caught my eye. Perhaps it was the sudden shift in tone and viewpoint, or maybe the quirkiness of its villains. But one thing that I had definitely noticed was a comeback to the world of survival horror.

    Resident Evil 7, in my honest opinion, is a much needed breath of fresh air for the franchise, after having living in the shadow of it's fourth installment. Gone are bombastic action sequences which would potentially make Michael Bay envious. Gone are the quick time events which had become so prevalent in the series. Instead, we are provided with the filthy horrors which lurk within the Baker Plantation.

    The shift in view point has proven to be quite divisive amongst fans of the franchise. Some scoff at it with pure hatred, and others praise it for bringing something new to the table. I have to say I'm in the middle of the spectrum. I am interested as to what Capcom has planned for the next main installment, and hope they refine the first person controls (if they continue on with it.).

    Gameplay is ripped straight out of classic Resident Evil titles, with numerous puzzles and some enemy encounters which will make one quite tense. Ammo is scarce, and you have to pick your battles wisely, or wind up some creatures next meal. Save rooms return, as do item boxes and an upgrade system. These provide a moment to catch your breath and decide what your next move should be.

    Replayability is an issue I see sprouting up frequently. The game has three difficulty modes one can go through, with the third being unlockable. Trophies are there for whoever wants them. Hidden figurines populate the plantation, which beckon to be destroyed. There are bonuses for beating the game under certain requirements, such as new weaponry and infinite ammo. However, all you'll be getting is the story mode, with extra game modes and story episodes as dlc in the nearby future.

    The story for the game doesn't bring anything new to the table. Rather, it chooses to play it simple snd safe. After Resident Evil 5 & 6, this was a great pallet cleanser. The story isn't bogged down by lore set by its predecessors, making 7 an excellent entry point for new comers. However, that isn't to say there aren't certain things sprinkled in to cater to veteran fans of the series.

    All in all, Resident Evil 7 is a gem of a game. Fans of old school Resident Evil will feel right at home, and newer players will be able to jump right in. It is not without its faults, such as questionable sound design for some circumstances, and lack of extra modes. However, there is plenty to enjoy in the molding corridors of the Baker Estate.

    This game has everything that made RE1 and RE2 fantastic games, and more. It's genuinely a terrifying game--even half an hour after pausing it and setting it aside, I'm still freaked out. The FP POV makes it that much more immersive, frightening and, at times, frantic. You will not be disappointed.

    So far, the puzzles are pretty fun and though some may seem simple, make the player feel smart.

    The atmosphere is incredibly well-done, and returning fans will be glad to see that the horror feeling of the original games has been reestablished quite nicely here. Although there are a few jump scares, it feels like they are done in the same vein as the original games, where due to fixed perspective, you may not see an enemy that's near you try to lunge or grab at you. This isn't necessarily a bad thing in my eyes, seeing as how that's how the games have always been, however, besides this there's another thing that manages to keep you on your toes.

    The enemy encounters are really well-done, you could be expedient and take them out with a few headshots, or you could hack at their limbs to slow them and make a quick escape. You're basically stressed out the entire time because the game makes you quickly aware of how dangerous getting hit by one of these various monstrosities could be, it's a good feeling though, not a frustrating one that makes the game feel unfair.

    The only parts that aren't too well done seem to be the bosses, some of them (won't mention which) have that classic campy/cheesy RE feel, but they are few and far between among the fun exploring and puzzle solving so it doesn't weigh down on the experience as much as one would expect.

    I definitely recommend this game, to new fans and old ones as well.
