Una vez mas nos damos cuenta que la prensa no termina los juegos o simplemente no los juega . Resident evil 8 es de los mejores juegos de resident evil , con virtudes y defectos . Aclare algunos puntos sin spoilers del juego y de lo que me parecio :
    Es falso decir que resident evil 8 es solo accion , tiene momentos realmente asombroso y un momento en particular que da mas miedo que todo resident evil 7 , sin embargo es cierto que tiene mucha mas accion que re7 , cuestion que no tiene porque ser necesariamente criticable , ya que capcom domina muy bien los tiempos .
    Jugabilidad excelente , mejoro mucho respecto a la jugabilidad del 7 , haciendolo mas rapido ,agil , no tan tosca como lo era su predecesor .
    Tecnicamente es excelente , animaciones muy conseguidas , fisicas muy bien (lamentablemente no se puede romper mucho el entorno ), una direccion artistica que es lo mejor del juego al igual que el diseño de escenarios .
    Armas increibles , mucha variedad .
    Sistema de inventario igual al de resident evil 4 , que personalmente me gusta mucho , el mercader funciona muy bien y divertido .
    y lo mejor del juego el sonido , impresionante lo que logro capcom haciendolo uno de los juegos mas inmersivos que he jugado nunca de 10 este apartado
    Por cierto uso del dualsense muy logrado , sobre todo con las armas INCREIBLE
    Tiempo de juego , es un poco mas largo que el 7 pero tampoco es de soprenderse resident evil nunca ha sido una saga de juegos largos por lo que no puedo ponerlo como un defecto
    Y por ultimo hablare de los puzles , historia , boss fights
    Los puzles son simples , me parece que capcom tiene que seguir mejorando en este sentido , aunque en este juego mejoro respecto a entregas anteriores le falta todavia . Hay puzles que llegan a ser ingeniosos y otros que son muy basicos .
    La historia es buena pero podia haber sido mucho mejor , Capcom tiene que mejorar la narrativa y esto no es solo algo particular de este juego sino de muchas de sus franquicias incluyendo a resient evil . haciendote sentir que no entiendes nada , que todo es especulacion , es complicado de explicarlo , personajes como chris redfield que tenia mucha espectacion acabaron siendo desaprovechado , apareciendo muy pocas veces en el juego y aun no entiendo del porque ocupa la portada del juego
    Las boss fight estan bien , un poquito mejores del estandar de esta saga
    En el unico apartado donde este juego es peor que el 7 es en el dieño de nivel .
    En conclusion estamos ante uno de los mejores resident evil top 4 por lo menos .
    Lo mejor : Ambientacion , jugabilidad , diversion , apartado sonoro, tecnicamente excelente , artisticamente de escandalo , armas , variedad de situaciones , dualsense (ps5)
    Lo peor: Historia , Fisicas mejorables respecto a la destruccion de escenarios , diseño de nivel .
    NOTA: 9 DE 10 SOBRESALIENTE Y GOTY HASTA EL MOMENTO A MI PARECER .
    Aprovecho de decir mi top 3 del año _

I was surprised with how varied and plentiful the areas were. The lighting effects of this game are so perfect throughout the game. Even on PS5, the raytracing looks great with a steady frame rate. Gameplay is amazing. The shooting feels good and is well balanced for a survival horror game. The enemies are varied and so well designed. The combat itself is very good. Plenty of weapons. The merchant is great. Speaking of which.. the cast in the game is what makes it great. The characters are amazing. Both on the good and bad side. The boss fights are amazing setpieces. Story is very interesting. It does miss some deliveries in some scenes as is the usual with RE games honestly. But this game has a lot really cool stuff to add to the RE lore and story going forward which I loved. The extra content is also plentiful and encouraging to go through.

    All in all. This RE has a plentiful of all the good stuff I and fans of the series probably want in an RE game. Great Horror, exploration, item management, Gunplay, treasure hunts, boss fights, story, shocking and epic moments.

    My actual score of this game is 9/10
    But I give it 10 here cuz metacritic sucks and it's either 0 or 10. They probably should just change it to thumbs up/down lol    … Expand

    Alright, the game was great. The story is far better then the Resident Evil 7's story, the gameplay as always is awesome. However I have an issue with the game itself and I hope we'll see some improvement in the future. The length of the game. Resident evil games aren't long to finish the main story which is a shame.

However I have an issue with the game itself and I hope we'll see some improvement in the future. The length of the game. Resident evil games aren't long to finish the main story which is a shame. You pay a game for 60/70 bucks to play it for 10 hours and then be done with it. Which is what most people who bought the game will do. There are some challenges you can do in order to play longer, but in my opinion, the main story should be longer. I personally would enjoy Resident Evil 9 a lot more if the main story was roughly 20 hours long instead of 9 or 10.

    I wouldn't want them to stretch out the story, forcefully make it longer therefore boring, I'd want them to try and make a longer story while keeping the fun of it. Or at least make it cheaper because it's a little too expensive in my taste. Solo games nowadays should last between 20 to 40 hours in my opinion. Other than the game length, I don't have any issue with the game, everything was explained, I like the new mechanic introduced (or should I say IntroDuked). All in all, it's a great game, I wouldn't say it's worth the 70 euros if you're planning on playing for a while but if you're in it for the story, then maybe.    … Expand

    Magnificent!!! Hands down one of the best Resident Evil games in years! it's got everything from the survival horror genre, mixed well with action & adventure elements. Fun bosses, awesome story with a mind-blowing twist and it's decently long for a RE game. Oh and it looks incredible! This is a 10/10 MUST BUY game, it's just a great experience and value! Well done to the developers. :)

    I really liked this game and if you liked RE7 you will love this one aswell. I think the gameplay is RE8 is better, but the story in RE7 is better. They are both must play titles for fans of the horror genre.

    What a great game! The levels are fun, the boss fights are great, the horror is pretty well done and unexpected, there is this one part scared the crap out of me, and the story is interesting. Overall, there are still minor flaws, but it's still a very good game to play.

    Este juego me parece una maravilla, esta muy bien hecho y eso se nota. Hacia tiempo que no me sentia tan cómodo jugando a un Resident Evil, en pocos momentos se hace pesado y tiene una historia muy buena con unos jefes muy entretenios. Mi nota es un 9, me parece una nota justa.

    Secondly, what in the seven hells is this actual **** of a writing, who the **** wrote this **** ? Ethan literally put back his hand out of nowhere with some piss out of a bottle. How do you want me to be afraid    Absolutely average game,

    Bad writing, bad level design except castle part, bad texture work, nonsense character interactions except Heisenberg and Duke, bad gameplay resembling nothing about resident evil but it is a wannabe fps and bad `puzzle` game.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. With one foul swoop Capcom has ruined the resident evil legacy and lore. The revolation that Ethen is a molded creature and thus can't die and has been dead since the beginning of 7 takes away all rlthe stakes of these games. that his daughter rose who is a reincarnation of evalyn who is able to control molded creatures the same mold that the t-virus is made of basically makes her a god who is able to control army's of the undead in resident evil a series well known for happy living people. All this being cannon and tied to the series as a whole has lasting ramifications and basically **** on the series as a whole. By introducing imortal molded beings all you need is some mystic magic mumbo jumbo and boom you can create your loved ones who are dead from mold that can't die. Way to go Capcom you made resident evil six look good with this one. The voice actors apart from two are awful the narrative is insulting the puzzles can't really be called that and could be solved by a five year old it's rediculiously easy even on the hardest mode it never truly feels terrifying apart from that monster baby bit. It may have good atmosphere but you will find yourself lolling into a state of ease with not much challenging you. It's a shame really I think that there is a good game underneath all the **** bug you have to dig really hard to find it. Re:8 ruined 7 games not counting the spinoff so that puts the score to one and I give it a point for that god damn monster baby scaring me stupid so a Two! And I gave re:6 a three so yeah **** this game thanks for destroying the lore of one of my favourite game series I'm done with this series it's dead now… Expand

    The new Resident Evil continues the adventures of Ethan in Romania and it is a lot of fun. It draws inspirations from RE4 and more action and Resident Evil true than 7 not being that scary. A game that is a lot of fun, this is what it is important in video games to not forget to be fun.

    Resident Evil Village has just become my favourite RE game so far. It’s a truly incredible game that feels like a tribute to the most iconic RE games so far, borrowing a bit from every game.
    The story is truly amazing, as a fan of RE who has played all of them I never thought RE would wake on me all the feelings it woke a the end.

    In artistic and sound concept it has its 10, what bothers me is that the feeling of suspense or terror is lost, since lady dimitrescu chases you through a mansion is nothing new, nor does it give the sensation that something is chasing you, different to what happened in resident evil 2, 3 and 7, that if it left you so to speak badly.

The issue of the enemies is well achieved, but the difficulty is a topic to talk about, it costs you more to kill the lycanthropes than the daughters of the lady, the fight of the lady reminds me of the fight of Christ against the fly giant of resident evil 5, if it weren't for the characters, I wouldn't know that it is from the resident evil saga, I see it as just any horror game and the ending, well, each one with their own taste Finally to pass the time is a good game but it does not become a resident evil like its predecessors.… Expand

    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.
