Set a few years after the horrifying events in the critically acclaimed Resident Evil 7 biohazard, the all-new storyline begins with Ethan Winters and his wife Mia living peacefully in a new location, free from their past nightmares. Just as they are building their new life together, tragedy befalls them once again. • First-Person Action – Players will assume the role of Ethan Winters and experience every up-close battle and terrifying pursuit through a first-person perspective. • Familiar Faces and New Foes – Chris Redfield has typically been a hero in the Resident Evil series, but his appearance in Resident Evil Village seemingly shrouds him in sinister motives. A host of new adversaries inhabiting the village will relentlessly hunt Ethan and hinder his every move as he attempts to make sense of the new nightmare he finds himself in.

The more important and relevant thing to point out is that RE7 got a 9/10. I liked that game (atleast until the awful ship section started).

I guess we won't be seeing CerebralTiger's detailed impressions then lol

A grand rogue's gallery stuck in a small world and a disappointingly familiar game design.
Disappointing game design follows wherever the game goes. Steelbooks ain't gonna change that.

Interlacing on PC =/= to consoles' upsampling technique.
It's inferior, literally just half the pixels when turned on.
Yep, interlacing is just half the pixels, but a decent way to get 4K on lower end PC's.

But the console implementation is proper reconstruction and both DF and NX agree it's pretty much the same as native 4K. Good work Capgods.

Interlacing method is "pretty much the same" as the checkerboarding in the same way that checkerboarding is "pretty much the same" as native 4K. If the selected resolution is 4K, both outputs resolve 4K pixels and both are literally rendering lesser pixels internally.

But the game has much bigger problems than this and switching platform isnt the solution.

I can understand where he's coming from tho, its a bad PC port. For PC only gamers it's not as good as it can be.

Have you started this yet CT ? How far are you, if you have.

Finished the castle section and I'm sure this has been brought up before, but...

Spoiler: show

...Lady Dimitrescu turning into a demogorgon and the whole boss fight against her was pretty damn cool!

But is that it for her? If so, I feel like she was written off way too early. She was clearly better than that (and Ethan lol).


Cautiously optimistic about the rest of the game. The castle section is easily a 9/10 for me. If the game can maintain the same pacing and over-the-top fun characters, I don't see that score changing.

Finally, some proper actual game related discussion!

Still don’t get why Chandoo feels shy of posting his impressions of the game though, it took me two minutes to post mine, lol.

    I dont think games have looked any better since 2019 onwards and they are performing worse and worse. Game developers have really dropped the ball.

    So while Playing Control, I found a journal which said that a bathroom is missing in Islamabad Beurue of Control. With Alan Wake and Control seems to be connected worlds. Even our city is in the universe as well. No wonder those Trail 5 and Trail 6 are haunted.
    did you know you can see @NaNoW credited in the game too ? :p

    What is peoples obsession with Battle Royale genre. 6 minutes to find a match, 3 minutes to setup a match, 2 minutes to land, 10 minutes for scavanging maybe 2 3 gunfigts and its over. Multiplayer landscape is looking absolute dogshit.
    I tried playing Apex Legends once. Couldn't find a gun for 5 minutes straight. If I found a gun, I couldn't find the right ammo for it. Got killed fighting with my fists. Uninstalled it the next day.

    I usually stay away from animes. Vinland saga changed the way i look at my life, and my experiences within. I recommend every breathing human being to watch this animated masterpiece at least once fromstart to finish.
    After I watched it, I never felt like i watched a show. It was a friggin journey. I got way too attached to Thorfinn and seeing him grow up and find himself and get rid of all the negativity inside of him was just pure bliss.

    With how great cod warzone has translated onto mobile. Mainstream Consoles have lost its value even further. Maybe console gaming was associated with TVs and how TV is not the primary source of media consumption anymore, consoles will lose its 200 million core audiences even further.
