Resident Evil 7 Weapons, Story Details Confirmed by ESRB Rating

Honestly, no matter which direction Capcom went at this point, there would be a certain group of RE fans bitching and disappointed. At least there's the RE2 remake to look forward to and RER for fans who prefer something similar to the classic style RE.

There are fanbases out there who don't have those kinds of options or their favorite game series is no more, period. Just some food for thought. Who knows, this might turn out to be excellent, sure it's different but that doesn't automatically equate to bad. We need to play the final product before ultimately making up our minds, I think that's only fair.

For those who have an aversion to FPP games e.g. motion sickness, dislike that perspective etc. I'm genuinely sorry. it's a long shot but you never know, there could be a 3rd person camera option. If not at release, possibly via a patch. This, of course, depends on the engines capabilities and if Capcom is willing and able to implement TPP camera mode.

Am i one of the only people that grew up with the original that is happy the are doing first person? At first I would of never wanted it, but the more I thought about it they would of gotten flack if they did what we all wanted in 3rd person. Yes people would of like it but im sure a lot would of also said the opposite. People dont understand that those kind of game mechanics wouldn't nearly have the same effect it did in 96. The game needed a fresh facelift and this is it. Besides we have the re2 remake for are oldschool fix!

Wow, a lot of negativity here. . Yeah the demo and recent trailer didn't help me get hyped for 7 either. However I'm willing to wait and try the final product.

the problem with this is that there is so many like it out there nowadays

I don't like this change to FPS , this game is not Resident evil , I know they fucked the latest versions of this game but that doesn't mean this can't work , as a fan of RE I don't think horror FPS is something I was waiting for . besides horror FPS is all over the market why would I want another one and why it's going to be any good .

A lot of angry people on here. There's more to life kids than getting worked up over video games.

Capcom doesn't even understand what Resident Evil is and they created it... I swear this has become the most bastardized franchise that they own, and it makes me sick as its one of my favorite franchises ever created.

I was already pissed off with 4, 5 and 6 and they're total garbage as RE games, and then they're like "we're going back to Resident Evil's roots!".. Really? Did you really think that when people said they wanted RE to return to its roots that they simply meant a Survival Horror game?

No, they wanted the game to fundamentally return to what Resident Evil started as and ended with at Resident Evil: Zer. A legacy modeled RE game that's modern looking with strong jump scares, fixed cameras, great puzzles, a decent enough story to tie it all together with familiar characters, and tie ins to the older games so it all actually makes sense.

What you're creating with RE7 is just some random survival horror game with Resident Evil slapped in the name, and it may be a survival horror, but that doesn't make it Resident Evil... That's the problem with 4, 5, & 6, all admittedly decent games, and 4 may even be considered a masterpiece, however, THEY SUCK AS RESIDENT EVIL GAMES and should have just spun off as a new IP...

Capcom, you are so ignorantly clueless and all you had to do was just hold a dialog with the community, all of this shit could have been avoided... Again...

The developement of Resident Evil 7 started before Kojima even showed us for the first time P.T and RE7 was know at that time as "Kitchen" a PSVR demo way back when PSVR was previously called Morpheus!

I am still trying to figure out what the dummy finger does ?

Sure give us machine gun in survival horror... Nemesis last good one you made.

that's the same shot from P.T. Rip off much?

Where the **** is the actual gameplay? I don't want to see some corny white horror movie. WhiteBitch: Like OMG I have to hide! Get the **** outta here with that shit. Show the fucking gameplay. Shoot something for **** sake.

I'm so jacked for this game. So little has been shown of it and people are hating on it so hard because it's first person. I played the HD remake just recently and the fixed cameras just do not hold up the controls suck, although it didn't stop me from getting all the achievements for it. Resident Evil 4 was phenomenal, Resident Evil 5 was alright but it's pretty hard to be a horror game during daylight. There's nothing frightening about the originals but I could just be desensitized now. I really think this will give Resident Evil the boost it needs to become a top quality franchise again. Again not much has been shown so people assuming zombies are gone or not the same is just speculation. From what I've seen and what people in the demos/videos have said it feels more like a family got hit with some form of the T-Virus and are now forcing it into people they find. That's just me making a guess from the woman in the most recent video saying why don't you want this gift (gist of what she says not direct quote). This game is my most looked forward to game that came from E3 this year.

I guess Resident Evil is never going to go back to the shambling Romero-style zombies, which was always the series' main appeal to me and many others.

I'm really looking forward to January, I don't care what anybody says, this game will be awesome!

Please! Please! Please, make it be good like RE2! You got the atmosphere down, we're not doubting that in ANY way, but please for the love of all that is holy, bring us back to the T-virus days.

Lol all they need is Leon and Jill as main character and the game gonna sell like hotcakes

Even with this new information I'm still trying to figure out why this has the Resident Evil name attached to it aside from the hopeful sales increase based off the name. This sounds nothing like a RE game so far aside from the weapons you get to use.

WTF is 'a sorted past'?

I've heard of the phrase 'a sordid past', but the former isn't an expression.

Good job, Gamespot.

A+ journalism.

Well that's a relief... I was afraid that RE7 was going to follow in the footsteps of more modern horror games like Amnesia/Outlast, and while those are great games, I don't want Resident Evil to copy them.

If anything, Resident Evil needs to get back to its roots.

let's just hope the game comes out fully completed. with a story mode.

I am actually really looking forward to this

I guess through out the game you will find camcorder tapes his wife left behind and you will have to play through them for backstory purposes during the main campaign.

I dont care what anybody says about it being fps because I never asked for them to go the action route either but they did so im just happy with them bringing back some horror.
