    Later a few months I decided to play Re 8, I was not excited to play it. I like Re 8. It’s a good game, but it shouldn’t call Resident Evil it should have another name. The graphics are awesome. The story isn’t so good, but ok. I don’t like the some bosses, they are strange and so big it isn't Resident Evil in my opinion.

    Just finally platinumed RE Village.
    Game is great. Had no issues or bugs during all my 3-4 playthroughs on the PS5. Loading times are literally instant. I've only seen how the loadscreen looks like by watching people speedrunning it on PC.

    I'm not giving it a 10 because of mercenaries and more specifically that in order to get the trophy you need to grind, and when you say grind that's not good. It would've been perfect if they made the trophy such that you need to finish every map once if they wanted you to go through everything.
    Anyway since most of the players will likely just play the story mode most of the time, that part is excellent. I would've liked a more tense atmosphere to be honest, like the Baker house, but what we got is definitely not bad. Definitely recommend this game and I'm glad I've got it.    … Expand

    For me I would give this game 90. without a doubt. It's definitely better than 7. I like Resi 7. But Village has the better epic Boss fights. More enemies.The locations are better and scarier.

If Capcom release Resi9 in the future.... they should not do this mistake again. But you should buy this game.The graphics are outstanding.Maybe the best of every Resident Evil game. It's definitely a masterpiece. As I said, if you like Resi 4..you will love this one. The game has great epic moments and the atmosphere is fantastic. Every location is special. It gets never boring. I think this direction is avery good way. A new chapter. Capcom did more than a great job with this one. The game has very insane moments. but I will not spoil them. Resident evil Village is definitely for me a Game of the year contender. If you've played the demo, than expect fantastic things in the full game.    … Expand

    Being a fan of the original RE games I’m always apprehensive about new RE titles as I’ve always felt it’s lost it’s way but 8 is a very pleasant surprise. It’s scary, creepy, atmospheric and implemented fantastically well so credit where credit is due, Capcom have done brilliantly

    It's a solid game. Though you can really tell that they turned down the horror and scary elements in this game to appeal to a larger group of people. I don't play many horror games ( cause honestly I scare easily in games, but i like it! ) but in re8 i was rarely as scared as I thought I would be. Even so some parts were pretty scary and overall it is a great game to play.

    This is a Must Play. One of the best Resident Evil in the franchise. Shares the podium with RE4 and RE7 and the top 5 with RE2 Remake and RE3 Remake also. Of course RE1, RE2 and RE3 are among the best but they did not aged well, RE4 did.

    I love the RE Franchise but sometimes I found that the games were lacking for my personal liking. With RE:Village I wanted to dig back in at it and give it a try. The game does things very different but often for the better. It has a good variety between action and horror in my opinion and the set of enemies and weapons gets you going pretty well.

Overall this game is to me a 8.5 moving up to the 9 because of personal tendency.

    I ve been playing the game on my PS5 with no issues so far. I didnt feel any fps drops (playing with RT off). The games looks beautiful although some textures lack a bit of detail. Generally the engine provides a very atmospheric result in both outdoor and indoor parts for action and horror bothways which is quite impressing. Starting with RE2:Remake the sound design improved drastically and I feel this continued with RE:Village. If you can use headphones or a decent surround system this game is absolutely amazing with the depths it can provide.

    The game mechanics itself are well known. I feel the inventory and save system went for the better. Overall the weapon and upgrade system seem fair and provide good content over time. I find the game lacks a bit when it comes to boss fights. They feel very innovative yet they are very dull and bullet spongey. There is not much skill applied most of the time and feels a bit grindy. Yet the boss designs are fantastic with great variety which I honestly enjoyed a lot although it might feel a bit drifting away from the RE main core.

    With all difficulties, weapons, mercenary mode and challenge the game provides at least 8-12 hours of straight story gameplay and probably around 20 to 35hrs for completionist which justifies the launch price for fans otherwise I suggest to wait for a discount of 10-20% for a better deal. I definitely do recommend the game it feels very different if you actually play it instead of watching videos or streamers. It is really enjoyable and for a surprising touch the story isnt too bad either.    … Expand

    Just one more good game in RE Universe. If you played RE2/RE3 remake or RE7 you know what it's all about - there are no big changes. Two minor but important changes: more humor and more action. As for me I'd better give more time for Dimitrescu castle as it's probably the best part of the game but diversity is good as well.

    Only reason this isnt a 10 for me is because some of the gun play was a little clunky.

    Other than that, I loved every minute of this game. The part of the game that kind of feels like P.T. (if you know, you know) was one of the most (fun?) terrifying moments of game play that ive seen in years, and it takes a lot for me to audibly yell, "OHHHH NOOOO IM OUT!"

    Resident Evil Village is a perfect successor to Biohazard in every possible way. From the beginning you’re thrown into a wonderfully haunted environment with inspirations of classic horror stories like Dracula and Frankenstein, which is a much more charming approach than a rotted house in the south. Rather than gross mold monsters, you’re faced with lycans and vampires amongst otherResident Evil Village is a perfect successor to Biohazard in every possible way. From the beginning you’re thrown into a wonderfully haunted environment with inspirations of classic horror stories like Dracula and Frankenstein, which is a much more charming approach than a rotted house in the south. Rather than gross mold monsters, you’re faced with lycans and vampires amongst other classic horror enemies as you explore a much more open area that is the village and its surrounding areas. The greatest stride this game made over the previous was characterization. Not only is more depth added for Ethan and the cast of good guys, but all the villains feel much more meaningful than the Baker family. You find yourself remembering their names, wanting to know their backstories, and always getting excited to see what happens when you find them. Right from the start of the game the plot explodes and you’re completely sucked in to the beautifully designed castle and the villains who wander it, but once you leave the castle the game makes you feel like only then did the game truly begin, and that’s an incredible feeling.
    Every second spent exploring this game is a feeling of curiosity and intrigue, keeping your guard up for any new enemies that may be around a corner they were not in before. While I wish it was possible to backtrack at certain points, I loved always having new places to go and things to do. Even the collectibles are fun to find. The story certainly carries this by giving you new and interesting characters along the way, leading to a conclusion that’s immensely satisfying and makes me excited for what comes next. Simply put this game is a work of art, from wonderfully written plot and dialogue to beautiful imagery and environments, and a level of masterful and suspenseful storytelling that always made me come back excited to play more. Without a doubt this game is a work of near perfection and surpasses its predecessor by giving you a longer, more expansive, and overall more enjoyable journey every step of the way.    … Expand

    Truly a great game. The story is really good and the gameplay is my favorite from those games I've played in the series. There is a big map to explore with many hidden things to discover and the combat is really smooth. However, it's slightly less interesting in the second part by my opinion but the first one is fantastic. Highly recommend this game.

    Capcom did an excellent work with this game! Creppy village, amazing characters, visuals, sounds. Freaky stories leaking out of the screen, depressing notes, and the story overall kept me playing this game over and over again. I finished it 3 times with different difficulties.

    The Good Parties
    This game has advanced the Resident Evil series about the universe and story, as Capcom says.
    The story
    I don't know how to tell the game without telling the scenes from the game in general, but in Re7 they connected the story very well, but in this game they connected it 10 times better than the level of that game for a long time.
    it was the best game I have experienced in general, I had a lot of hesitation about the progress of the story, no thicc vampire sister werewolves with advertisements. finished game definitely play this game.
    ⭕Play
    The gameplay is almost perfect in every aspect, the feeling of the hit, the variety of weapons, the variety of bosses and the high number of them, I have cut more than 20 bosses that do not affect the big and small story in general in the game and this gives the right to have that much weapon variety.
    ⭕Graphics and Performance
    I played the game on PlayStation 4 and I passed the fps drop in performance, I even experienced an increase in the 45 fps constant running game went up to 50 fps and this shows that it is an extremely good optimization As someone who likes the story of cyberpunk 2077, the optimization disaster came like a drug because it is a game. And I played extremely comfortably. The graphics push the boundaries compared to the old generation.    … Expand

Developers always say there’s no compromise, but come on… how dumb do they think we are? At the end of the day they want to sell as many copies as possible. Again and again they’ll say new generations of hardware will open up countless new possibilities! Bigger, better worlds, etc. etc. Which one is it? No compromise, or you need the new hardware to reach new heights beyond the same game with better rendering?

    I think the game is far too short. Why are games either too long, or too short? It’s one of those big unsolved mysteries. This was my first experience with adaptive triggers on the PS5, and it really makes a difference! I was pleasantly surprised to find it’s not gimmicky in the slightest. I like how they toned things down slightly since Biohazard- that game had a gross, Texas Chainsaw Massacre kind of vibe that almost made me delete it. If that game really gave you pleasure, please go see a psychologist- you are not well, amigo. There’s being scary, and then there’s being grotesque. A game needs to be fun, not a grueling, painful chore that leaves you feeling like
    you need to take a shower.

    I loved all the characters in The Village, but Ethan Winters is sort of a rube- his voice and some of the things he says are kind of cheesy, like how he calls the sisters a “bunch of crazy witches”. Did they mean to make Ethan like one of their geekiest players or something? Come on, our protagonist must have some balls to go through this rather than curl up and hide in a hole somewhere. I love the zones, and their variety, despite being a little on the small side (like Ethan’s balls). The castle probably looks the best out of them all, which also might be the largest and harkens back to classic RE games. This review is getting too long…

    Overall, this was a good game and is definitely worth playing. It’s just not a 9 or 10.    … Expand

    Beginning & first area 10/10, second area 9/10, rest of the game 8/10. Yeah they probably did a few extra steps for the big tiddie vampire dominatrix lady, but its a very solid game nonetheless. Very recommended and 4K 60fps with raytracing on PS5 is nice as well.

    I did not play the 7th part, as I was disappointed with the transition to the 1st person view. But I decided to try the 8th part. I liked the game.
    Pros: The game has a beautiful design and style. Nice graphics. Interesting to explore the world. Interesting trade. Good plot and characters.
    Cons: No 3rd person view. It gets boring towards the end.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. After 9 hours and 30 minutes and 420 gamerscore, I was done with the latest Resident Evil offshoot. Folks, great for me, I had so much fun with it and even started the game all over again. To classify: so far I have played Resi 2 (8/10) and 3 Remake (7/10) as well as Resi 7 (9/10). For me, Resi 8 has sat on the throne of this series.

    story
    The game is still quite fresh, so I won't write much about the story (including some spoilers), except that I liked the whole process around Ethan Winters, I was very happy with the twists and turns and was sometimes surprised. This cabinet of horror curiosities that you face, the fantasy setting brought a change for me that I found terrific.

    The individual characters do their part, especially Lady Dimetrescu has been shown excellently.

    I just felt it was a shame that it was over a bit quickly with the good lady and her daughters, they were just used for the beginning and I always ran right intuitively, which is why I got through relatively easily. The facial expressions, gestures and dialogues of these vampire ladies were wonderful and I wanted to see more of them.
    But the other members of this gang also had their moments.

    graphic

    The game looked really great. The setting fits me perfectly and it ran smoothly on the Series X. I actually had no noticeable frame rate drops, although sometimes a lot can happen on the screen. The selected landscape, the various facets of the individual areas, create a coherent and well-designed overall picture for me. Every now and then I stopped for the photo mode (unfortunately it wasn't that great, somehow the pictures sometimes looked strange) and marveled at the landscapes or just the inner workings of the houses, the castle, etc.

    There is a lot of love for detail here and one or the other Easter egg can also be found.

    Atmospherically, it was also successful for me, because the horror parts also exude real horror for me, but perhaps could have been a little more.

    Gameplay

    So first of all I have to say that Resident Evil is incredibly varied (horror, Mr. X gameplay, puzzle passages and skill passages, pure action). But I can understand if some e.g. the horror aspect was neglected. To be honest, that was enough for me and after this very specific part of the game I was exhausted.

    That breathed pure horror.

    The start of the game is as crazy as it is ingenious, I just sat with my mouth open in front of the PC and couldn't believe what I was seeing: Werewolf people who ride horses and shoot with a bow and arrow.

    The first half of the game is also very different from the second half and I personally found the gameplay change to be quite successful. Especially after the turn mentioned, the game briefly takes on completely different forms. It is precisely this point that will probably split people's minds (if not a little earlier in the factory).

    Each of the individual opponents gets their moment and all of them are consistently interesting. Just the introduction of all of these was phenomenal.

    We also have the classic Resi weapon game play, which is a bit sluggish, but also wants to be that way. I got along with it, but I probably wouldn't have made it higher than normal. The ammunition in particular is pretty precisely measured towards the end. The inventory was incredibly pleasant and was a significant step up from Resident Evil 7. The dealer was also a lot of fun and the upgrade system was very motivating (I love the revolver, unfortunately I never really had a lot of ammunition for it). The weapons themselves are very well chosen, I have actually tried everything and did not find any weapon to be useless. I also used mines, bombs, firing flour to distract, and so on.

    So the action turned out very well for me and got even better later. In addition, the game offers some intermediate bosses, where you really have to use all means to combat.

    There are also puzzles and smaller mini-games, but they were all pretty easy, I have to admit, and could have been a bit more challenging. The classic texts for reading should of course not be missing and I tried to absorb everything.

    If you play the game through then you have the opportunity to unlock some things for further rounds of the game. There is a mercenary mode in which you simply have to eliminate opponents in a certain amount of time. Not particularly exciting but the bonuses that can be unlocked are worthwhile: There's a damn lightsaber available as a double blade 5/5.

    I only have to criticize the level of difficulty, which was actually suitable for me on normal (also had problems) but the lock was way too easy. Also, some boss fights were a bit boring because they just endured a lot.

    Conclusion

    I have so little to criticize here because I just had too much fun with Resident Evil Village. I can certainly understand when certain decisions by the developers are not considered to be good, but I always had fun. For me 10/10 Mushrooms    … Expand

    Great setting and visuals. The gunplay fells nice, and it's definitely more action oriented than RE7, with ammo being plentiful, making aiming and headshots feeling less essential (on standard difficulty).

    The story is classic Resident Evil, and great if you are into it. The game does suffer a bit of a classic RE issue, where the game does progressively less scary as it goes along, and    Great setting and visuals.

    The story is classic Resident Evil, and great if you are into it. The game does suffer a bit of a classic RE issue, where the game does progressively less scary as it goes along, and you learn the premise of the story, and how challenging each enemy is. Meaning that the game really isn't that scary after the first hour or two (with an exception a section mid game, that i won't spoil).

    One of the greatest achievements of the game is the pacing IMO. You get constant feeling of progression, and are moving from one area to the next with a great pace. You could even say that you aren't getting enough time in each of the great locations, which is a credit to how well each section is crafted. The game never overstays it welcome, which was the case at certain points of RE7.

    Overall a great game, and the best storydriven AAA game of the year so far, and seemingly until the fall.    … Expand

The bosses are challenging and all have their own unique traits to fighting them(with the exception of Heisenberg,; cool character, crappy boss fight). The Mother Miranda fight is really cool, too.

    So yeah, I had a good time. It's like Capcom combined RE4 & RE7 together. I hope they bring back more horror elements to the next few game. RE7 was close to perfect and Survival Horror should be at the root of every game in the franchise.    … Expand

O desafio de um desenvolvedor é lançar algo novo em um universo de mais de 20 anos, e ao meu ver, as escolhas feitas foram precisas. Jogo Resident Evil desde seus primórdios, e admito que a série cometeu erros ao longo do tempo, tentando encontrar o seu tom com o mercado de games mudando o tempo todo. E acredito que o equilíbrio entre seus sucessos foi bem executado com Village. Gráficos incríveis, apesar de ainda não utilizarem do potencial da nova geração, resolvem bem a atmosfera do jogo, sombria e misteriosa. Trilha sonora continua marcante, e duração satisfatória no tempo do jogo, o que era uma crítica constante nos jogos anteriores.  Se você curte a série, e se mantém aberto a mudanças sem apego a deralhes como câmeras fixas e cidades abarrotadas de zumbis, dê uma chance para Ethan, Chris e toda a aventura que Resident Evil Village pode proporcionar.… Expand

    My review: Capcom did it once again! ----------
    Concept: 10/10
    Resident Evil 8: Village is a first person survival horror game, and the follow-up to the stellar 2017 Resident Evil 7: Biohazard, now with more action elements that it's prequel. Having played hours on my PS5 I think of it as an homage to the 25 years since the birth of the franchise, since it's clearly got influences from    My review: Capcom did it once again! ----------

Having played hours on my PS5 I think of it as an homage to the 25 years since the birth of the franchise, since it's clearly got influences from many games in the series, especially RE7 and RE4. ----------
    Location and world: 10/10
    A Romanian village is your main hub that connects all the areas of the semi open world and it really shines. As a person that lives in the Balkans, it really looks not only beautiful, but also veeery truthful to the location it's set in. Now, there are many locations spreading outwards from the villages, such as the Castle and the Factory, each one with its own antagonists and with a very different tone overall. This, along with the loads of enemy types (compared to the RE7's much less enemies) makes the game much more interesting to play. I've heard that many people would probably buy it just for Lady Alcina Dimitrescu which only appears in a fraction of the whole game. Admittedly, when I first heard I was kinda disappointed, but, trust me, you will not get bored and you will see much more! ----------
    Gameplay: 9/10
    Gameplay wise, RE8 uses a first person camera which I prefer to the third person view of RE2 just because it definitely increases the immersion. It is more action packed at some points, with guns and ammo, requiring nice utilisation and more horror packed with less guns and more scares at some other points. -----------
    Story: 9/10
    The story is interesting once again with Ethan being the protagonist. Nothing extraordinary, yet likeable enough for you to get into the game and immerse yourself. I am not going to get into it, not to spoil that much for you, but I will tell you, it has its nice plot points and set of characters. It's simple like that of RE7, compared to RE6 which I think it was a bit crowded and too much was happening. The main story lasts 9-13 hours depending on your gameplay type, which is just a bit more than that of RE7, but it's replayability is even better, thanks to the many unlockables and the classic Mercenaries mode which is fun and action-packed. I could see myself playing 40+ hours before starting to feel bored of the game, which is very nice. ----------
    Graphics: 10+/10
    I could easily give it more than 10 points if I could, just because it looks absolutely stunning. Definitely one of the best looking games I've ever played! You can clearly see the care the developers have put into making it as photorealistic as possible, even on old-gen consoles, probably thanks to the best use of RE Engine to date. You can see simple details other games don't even bother have, like tile textures etc. I am really impressed by Capcom on this achievement! ----------
    My verdict: 9.6/10---->10/10
    Did you like RE7? You will probably like most of this one too. Did you like RE4? You will probably love this too. Are you a Resident Evil fan? This is a must have! This game is a very nice blend of Action and Survival Horror, which, in my opinion, even with its minor pacing issues is still a nice addition to your collection, especially with the Next Gen consoles having very few titles.
    P. S. Since RE8 is a sequel to RE7, make sure you have played the latter first!    … Expand

    Tanto Alcina Dimitrescu, sus hijas y madre Miranda personajes con mucha carisma.
    El palacio és espectacular y la casa Beneviento igual a parte de que es una de las mejores secciones del juego.

    Similarly to Resident Evil 4 back in the day, Village will attract a new generation of players and redefine the franchise for the modern age. I guess it’s time to stop looking back and counting on the series to return to its roots. Capcom is well aware of those roots and willingly draws from them to create something new but still infused with Resident Evil’s spirit. Village is not perfect, but neither was RE4, and once again it’s easy to turn a blind eye to the flaws, because overall it’s an amazing game. [07/2021, p.56]

    Resident Evil Village feels like such a culmination. Bringing together elements from the franchise all the way up to now and crafting what looks to be the next step of survival horror, it embraces every aspect of the franchise. While the insidious dread of Resident Evil VII is missing, there are still plenty of scares. The monster designs are fantastic, from the generations undead, the fury of the Lupine beasts, to the towering monstrosities. It's well worth delving into the concept art and 3D models to enjoy them fully. The story is just the right amount of silly with the terrifying, and the odd dash of the surreal. The combat is smooth and fluid, best evidenced in the addictive Mercenaries mode. All of these elements added together make quite possibly the best Resident Evil to date, and a foundation for a fresh new generation of terror.

    RE: Village is a mixture of almost all previous Resident Evil elements, making the most of both survival horror and puzzle intensity, but with the primary stage being left for the more action-like nature of Resident Evil 4. It has some great story moments, sprinkled with a few lacklustre characters that are still overshadowed by its most notable characteristic – most detailed environment to date.
