XxEvil AshxX Posted April 19, 2021 Share Posted April 19, 2021 At this point I think I'm just ready to wait for the game. I think the reason the demo has such stupid restrictions on it is that they don't want to spoil stuff, which the previews probably will. Half the fun of a RE is not knowing what's in the next room/area. I'd rather discover it for myself. I'm kind of already a little bummed that they've shown so much of the Lady and the other vampire chicks. RE is at its best when its mysterious. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There isn't much to spoil in regards to the demo no matter how long you play it, the demo has an ending point which makes the 30 minute restriction silly.

Was reading some impressions on it earlier and a lot of people seemed to be of the opinion that the lighting and hit reactions on the enemies were really off. Some comments like 'the enemies looked like stickers placed in the game world'. Apparently gunplay is also pretty much RE7 levels of poop despite a much bigger focus on Action. I am, or was, very excited for the game but I'm not sure after reading demo reactions that this is really what I was expecting based on earlier gameplay footage and all. With the amount of action involved, I was expecting it to veer more towards RE4 in terms of gunplay or at least be improved drastically from RE7. What little action there was in RE7 was the worst part of it to me. Trying to hit some hyperactive bobbleheaded bullet sponge with those controls sounds obnoxious.

Very floaty, like there's no weight to anything. I've felt that way ever since RE7. I can see how people might feel the enemies are detached from the gameworld.

I don’t think it would have jumped out to me, except the NPCs you interact with immediately after the fight sequence look like they belong just fine. I also didn’t feel this way about any of the baddies in RE VII. 32 minutes ago, Bloodporne said: Was reading some impressions on it earlier and a lot of people seemed to be of the opinion that the lighting and hit reactions on the enemies were really off.

The combat felt pretty “bad” too, but I assume that some of that is due to this part of the game being early / funneling you to the story beat. I hope so, anyway. I don’t mind feeling “weak” in RE games, necessarily, especially early on until you get better at it. The first time through the village in RE4 was a struggle, by the time you know the system Leon just mercs everyone. We’ll see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XxEvil AshxX Posted April 19, 2021 Share Posted April 19, 2021 There are apparently weapon upgrades and shit too, so the combat might be "bad" on purpose until you upgrade. But this is just a guess on my part. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't play it but from what I saw turning off aiming and movement acceleration improved the controls a lot. This game is possibly a good candidate for M&KB controls. That being said I couldn't aim worth a lick on the two REmakes (2&3) unless I used M&KB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xbob42 Posted April 20, 2021 Share Posted April 20, 2021 I recommend giving it a second chance on PS4 Pro/PS5/whatever'll play it at 60! The regular pistol definitely takes more shots than previous RE titles (not quite as tanky as RE2 remake's enemies, which I personally enjoyed) but you get some good guns as usual and it's fun to just blast the shit out of enemies. I also like that there's a few minor defensive and offensive techs you can learn (like cancelling a heal with a block) that add just a bit of extra depth.

XxEvil AshxX Posted April 20, 2021 Share Posted April 20, 2021 RE8 was supposed to be a truly next gen title, but 200 million PS4/XBO users tend to change a company's mind. Especially when getting a new console is like winning a lottery. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
