    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Great horror and Resident Evil game overall. It takes you back straight up to the survival horror roots of the Resident Evil series, but with a more modern focus in terms of gameplay and without taking most or none of the elements that make an OG style Resident Evil game an actual OG Resident Evil game.

    The only part or section of the game that i didn't like too much, was the one on the boat, but because it was so short, i don't think it takes away anything out of the experiencie

    10/10, period.    … Expand

    You pick up the saw and the beautiful game slips from your hands, replaced by sheer disappointment. A very good first half continues with a sad second half. You can stop the game halfway and try to imagine the last scene...

I wasResident Evil 7 (8/10 Terrifying Wife Finding Adventure): Resident Evil 7 (RE7) is a terrifying trek through a decrepit Louisiana property hounded by the psychotic Baker family. The game nails atmosphere and dread as the player slowly advances through the sprawling Baker mansion. I was surprised at how creepy and unsettling multiple sections throughout the game had me feeling. I was constantly checking corners and looking behind to make sure I was alone and safe. The game is full of interesting puzzles and worthwhile exploration. I enjoyed nabbing new guns and discovering hidden secrets. Later sections in the game do slow down the pacing, but I did appreciate the variety in setting. The game's story is interesting and worth experiencing. The Baker family’s descent into madness is well explained and the antagonists are all compelling and interesting. Staples of Resident Evil games such as crafting and limited resources make a return here. Both do an excellent job of allowing the player freedom in ammo choice and amplifying the need for resource conservation and exploration. The worst aspect of RE7 has to be the actual gunplay. Aiming feels unresponsive and clunky. This can largely be explained by the fact that RE7 was made for VR. The VR aiming and shooting is actually extremely precise. The boss battles are hit or miss with some being extremely fun and cinematic and others being cinematic but not very engaging. My most memorable moment has to be using a car to run down a boss in a climactic battle. Overall, RE7 succeeds in everything important and left me excited for the future of the franchise.… Expand

    I love the idea of the mould infecting everything - It's a bit more creative than a regular virus and enhances the world building of this nasty setting.

    At one point you have to make a moral choice, that actually impacts the games outcome. Sadly this detail is rendered meaningless as soon as you play Resi 8.    … Expand

    Excellent level design and atmosphere. Great combat. Enemy design is noticeably lacking and the story has noticeable flaws. The game however is just so good regardless of these flaws.

    It starts out absolutely amazing, so scary and the atmosphere is fantastic, gameplay is fun, puzzles are fun. Then about 3 quarters into the game the game decides to be super mid. If you’ve played the game you know what I’m talking about. 10/10 first 3 quarters and 3/10 last quarter. Capcom had some serious potential here but they just messed up the last part of the game.

    As a horror, the game is very good. The story though has its bumps (I hate the cliché creepy kid characters). Not quite the Resident Evil experience I was expecting (there weren't some locations specific to the game series). But as a standalone horror game, it's one of the best.

    4. Графика. Игра выглядит очень солидно и по сей день, а оптимизация шикарна.
    Минусы:
    1. Оружие. Существуют буквально бесполезные виды оружия, по типу огнемета и гранатомета, которые кроме определенных мест не выгодны в использовании.
    2. Хоррор. Эта игра НЕ хоррор, и именно поэтому я ставлю не 9, а 8 баллов. Игра окончательно ушла в экшн, хотя позиционирует себя как ужасы, но с этим не справляется.

    Вердикт - игра обязательна к покупке, но если вы олдфаг серии или хотите хоррора - вам не сюда.    … Expand

    I was scared for 3 weeks after that :) In the end the too much weapon made me calm and i wasnt scared that much. With a fewer enemy and weapon this game could be the best horror game.

    The game is good. The first sections are really scary and atmospheric and did not play it on release because of it lol. I love it until the last sections of the game its like 2/3 of the game is really good and the 1/3 is like meh.. but overall its a great experience and I still remember every detail of it. Really good follow up after the disaster called re6 ;)

    I don't think any TV show, movie or video game will scare you as much as Resident Evil 7 Biohazard. The game teaches you what ultimate fear is.

    Survival seems to be much more of the focus this time (as opposed to action or horror), and that's fine with me. Gunplay is solid, exploration is interesting, and the story is alright.

    Unfortunately, this game is not scary and the environments were mostly dull. The only two that interested me were the ship and the birthday shed. The enemies were well designed and creepy, however.    Survival seems to be much more of the focus this time (as opposed to action or horror), and that's fine with me.

And yeah I’m getting this out of the way I actually screamed during my play through but I enjoyed every last second of it. I have minor nitpicks like Ethan is so dumb and his actor does not sell he is horrified about seeing a cop get his head cut in half with a shovel or having his hand being cut off. Don’t worry I’m only mentioning stuff in the beginning hour of the game. But just like every other Resident Evil game item management is key during a boss if you run out of bullets your really screwed specially when the fight is against the mother. There is little ammo and health to go by so you have to make them it it’s a refreshing difference because I just got done playing Uncharted 4 where you can punch and run and gun but with this you have only 10 shots in your pistol waste it and you have to use a pocket knife which is not useful. The puzzles are not hard but not too easy one in particular is very unique if you didn’t watch a play through before like I did you would be confused but I loved it. The bosses are nothing to ride home about either there all easy even the final boss because by then you have a gun with a lot of ammo. But that doesn’t matter when this is the best FPS Horror game I have ever played. It’s available now on all modern platforms for about 20 bucks it’s short but fun.… Expand

    This is probably the scariest game of all time if you play it in VR. The opening hours of the game are horrifying, the whole atmosphere is fantastic. The reduction of a point is due to the fact that some of the monsters are a bit generic later on. But other than that this is my favourite Resident Evil game.

    WHAT have they done with the Resident Evil franchise? This is so tragic that I can't believe it. I finished the game 100%, went platinum and soon (hopefully) will finish these poor DLCs. The fact that I play it does not change anything. This is not Resident Evil! It hurts!

    Pretty good but still does not compare to the classics. The same is still a good game of terror but it does not end up being a good Resident Evil for me.

    Whether played in VR or not, Resident Evil 7: biohazard is a thrilling game and it shouldn’t be missed. If you have the option to play the game with a PSVR, you should by all means do so. Regardless of how you play Resident Evil 7: biohazard, just be sure that you do because it is one of 2017’s finest releases and the constant stream of DLC keeps the nightmare alive.
