    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Easily the best Resident Evil to date. Followed by the Resident Evil 2 remaster in my opinion.

    Pros:

    The story is insanely smooth. From the minor side characters such as Clancy to the 'villains', the family and Eveline to Ethan. Each of the characters are well put together.

    - The atmosphere in the game is hugely eerie in the best way. the setting of an old abandoned out of the eye house, the basement, the swamp, the caves, the garage, the barn house, the ship and the Incinerator area. Every area is memorable.

    - The family has depth. They aren't just conventional 'evil' characters. They are victims as much as the protagonist.

    - The graphical advancement from the previous games (barring revelations 2, which is also a great game) is a huge positive.

    Cons:

    - I do feel like of all the characters, Ethan is the weakest character which is a shame because he's the protagonist. Despite this he's still a fine main character in perspective of a horror game.

    - Although there is story reason and some variation, the basic enemies lack diversity.    … Expand

    Resident Evil 7: Biohazard is a masterpiece. It's a course correction for the series after the action heavy RE 6. Featuring a first-person perspective, it blends elements from the original RE with modern day horror game trends. Cinematically, the game borrows from The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, The Blair Witch Project and Saw.

Cinematically, the game borrows from The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, The Blair Witch Project and Saw. The developer's decision to break away from the main RE mythology and tell a stand alone tale is a great one.

    At 10 hours long, Resident Evil 7 isn't a lengthy experience, but it is a very absorbing one. Sadly, the shoddy framerate, lower-res graphics and weaker audio on base Xbox One, brings it down a notch. I'd rate it with an 8.7 out of 10.    … Expand

    BRAVO!! as a day one fan this game is what we wanted after 1,2,3 & CV before it drifted away with 4,5 &6 and became a non horror game which were CoD like with no real survival. 7 brought the series back on it's feet!!

    the formula is finally once again: low ammo, survival, some riddles (could be more and more difficult) and maybe the best setting ever. THAT is what RE should look like.

Fabulosa reivindicación de la saga RE, cuenta con entornos tétricos muy inmersivos, un sistema de creacion de recursos muy intuitivo y funcional, armas perfectamente balanceadas y gráficos que al inicio me dejaron perplejo por su realismo, solamente carece de un protagonista interesante y de una amplia variedad de enemigos, tambien sufre de poca rejugabilidad pues una vez sabes como resolver todos los puzzles, el logro que requiere completar el juego en menos de 7 horas deja de parecer una locura.… Expand

    Прыгнули мы с Ксюнечкой так порядочно с шедевральной второй части издания 2019 года конечно же на семерку. Прежде всего сделано это было с осознанием минимальных потерь контекста, ибо истории этих частей хоть и объединяет одна вывеска, по факту же и места событий, и главные герои совершенно отличные и никоим образом не пересекаются, скажу даже больше в седьмой части по сути зомби-то и нетПрыгнули мы с Ксюнечкой так порядочно с шедевральной второй части издания 2019 года конечно же на семерку. Прежде всего сделано это было с осознанием минимальных потерь контекста, ибо истории этих частей хоть и объединяет одна вывеска, по факту же и места событий, и главные герои совершенно отличные и никоим образом не пересекаются, скажу даже больше в седьмой части по сути зомби-то и нет вовсе в классическом их воплощении. В семерке основными противостоящими нам мобами выступают зараженные инфекцией уродливые черные чудовища, ничем не напоминающие людозомбей из второй части, разве что количеством конечностей и то в случае с обитателями Biohazard конечности эти случаются и в виде огромных клешней. А помните навязчивые душещипательные нарастающие звуки шагов Тирана в Resident Evil 2, расшатывающие нервную систему с легкостью парящего перышка? Помнится, как-то в процессе прохождения второго Резидента известнейший неубиваемый бугай застыл в проеме сэйв-комнаты, еще бы шаг и все жизненные ценности и устои наши с женой бы рухнули. Он его к счастью не сделал, но напугал нас так нехило. Так вот к чему я про Тирана вспомнил, он тогда был единственным бессмертным персонажем, бороться с которым можно было только хорошей легкоатлетической подготовкой. В Resident Evil 7 же у нас теперь будет таких целых два подарка судьбы — Джек и Маргарет Бэйкеры главы семейки людоедов, но благо, каждый из них привязан к своему дому. Проходим мы каждую из обителей человеческих страданий по очереди, поэтому «счастья» сваливать сразу от двоих бессмертных на одной локации нам не перепадет. В финалах же прохождения каждого из домов у нас происходят с этими недолюдьми боссфайты, в результате которых их бесконечную жизненную позицию мы низвергаем в пыль, правда, спойлеры, батьку пришлось успокаивать дважды. Раз уж зашел разговор за сражения с антогонистами седьмого Резика, то как по мне, все они, если не считать самого последнего, исполнены весьма эффектно, атмосферно, врезаются в память бесповоротно и самое главное не похожи друг на друга. Финальную Эвелину почему-то не дотянули, притом так достаточно сильно. Такой потрясающий заход на развязку, действительно классный и такой никакой завершающий махач, жаль немного. Впрочем, на общее впечатление от игры это сильно не сказалось, ну разве совсем чуть-чуть. А знаете что я обо всем этом думаю? Capcom действительно крутые ребята! Надо было начать наверное с этого, но Resident Evil он настолько хорош, что эмоции волей неволей выходят на поверхность.… Expand

La ambientación, tanto visual como sonora, hace que estés en continua tensión y en guardia para lo que pueda pasar: enemigos que te asaltan sin que lo esperes, ruidos extraños e inesperados, trampas ocultas... Así mismo, la exploración es un pilar muy importante en este juego para poder avanzar y conseguir todo tipo de recursos para sobrevivir. Aún siendo un gran juego de terror, tiene también sus "peros": el almacenamiento disponible en el inventario es muy limitado, aún consiguiendo mochilas, y en varias ocasiones necesitarás volver a un punto de guardado para reorganizar tus objetos antes de avanzar. Y en el caso de la versión de XBOX One, gráficamente es inferior respecto a otras versiones (lo tengo también en PS4, y se ve bastante mejor aquí), aunque no por ello es menos disfrutable o da menos terror. ¡Lo recomiendo aunque lo pase fatal con el miedo!

    Nobody would have guessed that Capcom would be able to spice things up so much after a bunch of mediocre games that started around twenty years ago, slightly after RE2 on the old PlayStation. Things went dramatically downhill around RE5 and RE6, and the boys in Japan realized a change was needed.

Things went dramatically downhill around RE5 and RE6, and the boys in Japan realized a change was needed.

    RE7 Biohazard has given us a brand new first person perspective, a throw back to the old days when atmosphere was king and a very tense gameplay. By and large they have succeeded and the game was a blast to play with a protagonist called Ethan Winters.

    Pros-
    Best atmosphere and game world ever!
    Brilliant surround-sound audio through the headphones
    Fantastic game engine- with epic shadow and lighting
    Baker house had awesome level of detail
    Open door animation
    Limited ammo at start made for tense gameplay
    Crazy storyline for the most part

    Cons-
    Very linear game
    Enemies lacked variety and had basic design
    Lip-sync bug whenever I played cassette tapes
    Final boss battle was a let-down
    Who was that person impersonating Chris?
    Little reason to replay the game

    I loved this game very much, thanks to: The first person who makes it scarier because you see it in the eyes of the character. The DLCs that are entertaining. The nightmare mode that is a real nightmare. The lack of weapons makes it something more Survivar horror, so that they don't give you an RPG-7. I loved the terror in the game.

    Cela dit, le jeu est assez beau (bien que terne) et tourne à 60 im/s (c’est bien agréable) et en plus, on a même droit à un doublage français de qualité ! depuis le temps, c’est finalement arrivé… alleluia !

Lack of resources leads the player to despair and contributes to the uncertainty of the story, but that also knows to frustrate. You're always missing something. The game is fluid. The puzzles are too easy, and the enemies are generically the same. The music could have been better.

    Even though Resident Evil 7 Biohazard ditches the third person point of view to a first person and a more intimate story, it does an amazing job of bringing back its roots which made the series so successful. The extraordinary work that was done in the different game departments such as story telling, audio, gameplay and graphics will keep me from sleeping at night and remembering it as a great experience.

    Resident Evil 7 seems to us an indispensable game if you like the adventures with action and puzzles, but with a great inconvenience: IT IS SO SCARY. Keeps you heartbroken for hours and that is everything that we wanted from this title. Stay away from the prejudices you had about this game of the Resident Evil saga, because you will love it without a doubt.
