Mercury33 Posted January 28, 2020 Share Posted January 28, 2020 First person? I’m out. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CastlevaniaNut18 Posted January 28, 2020 Share Posted January 28, 2020 Yes, please! I was initially skeptical with first person in REVII, but it was a great game, so I'm all in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dodger Posted January 28, 2020 Share Posted January 28, 2020 I should get around to playing 7, maybe after I finish my RE2 run. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Posted January 28, 2020 Share Posted January 28, 2020 RE VIII will launch with the PSVR2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bloodporne Posted January 28, 2020 Share Posted January 28, 2020 I know we have the remakes and all but the first person shift is something I didn't get already in REVII. I hope this one actually has meat on its bones, the last one was paper thin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XxEvil AshxX Posted January 28, 2020 Share Posted January 28, 2020 I don't know why, but in a series that has had giant centipedes, snakes, zombie sharks, scorpions, sentient leeches, etc etc etc, werewolves just seem like a tad much. Also, i dont want another stalker enemy. With RE2 and RE3 remakes being so close together, i just feel like another stalker endmy in RE8 would be overkill 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xbob42 Posted January 28, 2020 Share Posted January 28, 2020 Excellent, more first-person! I had feared that with the success of the RE2 Remake they'd make all of the games like that. I enjoy the variety, and RE7 actually had far more in-depth combat than RE2 thanks to proper defensive options. Inject it directly into my SOUL.

Bacon Posted January 28, 2020 Share Posted January 28, 2020 Yeah, first person RE isn't what I want. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
morph89 Posted January 29, 2020 Share Posted January 29, 2020 I could go either way on the first person. I thoroughly enjoyed both REVII and RE2 Remake and their use of first and third person, respectively. Ultimately, it'll come down to how well it's executed.

Commissar SFLUFAN Posted January 29, 2020 Author Share Posted January 29, 2020 Some more details: Ethan will be returning as a playable character. Resident Evil 8 was tested last year. It will not be called Resident Evil 8, but will have a “clever title” (Resident EVIII, amirite?) The game will be in First-person like RE7. Gameplay starts in a village leading up to a castle. The environment will be rural, snowy, and mountainous; possibly Europe. Regular zombies will be appearing instead of the Molded from RE7. There is a persistent shadowy “female” enemy that will follow you but will dissipate if shot. There are also wolf-like creatures that will attack the player in certain areas. Chris Redfield will also be returning in some capacity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kal-El814 Posted January 29, 2020 Share Posted January 29, 2020 Give it to me now with VR support so I can discover how much of a coward I am. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paperclyp Posted January 29, 2020 Share Posted January 29, 2020 I prefer the third person games, but I also really, really enjoyed 2/3 of 7 (the last third is a stinker). And now that they're remaking the older ones in third person, I guess it's cool they're making the new ones in a new style. And as long as they get away from where 5 and 6 took the series, I'm happy.

Keyser_Soze Posted January 29, 2020 Share Posted January 29, 2020 I never played 7 so I have no opinion really. Still RE is 3rd person to me. Would have been nice for the first person to be a one off thing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The game comes out pretty soon, it’s probably cheaper to do this and then maybe they would do a public beta after. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I played RE7 the first time without VR since I didn't have the headset yet. So after playing it and knowing the scares, I tried it on VR and stopped playing when I walked into a dark room with a TV playing static. I knew enemies weren't going to show up for a little while and I still couldn't do it. I really want to try it again because RE7 is so fucking fun.
