"Zwei" New survival horror gamer from Shinji Mikami

[yurieu]

Super Dr. Salvador scared the crap out of me on my first try. Was not expecting him. Everything RE5 and onwards with a chainsaw, was medicore.

the main problem is, they always said they were deviating from the RE style during re4 development. for me, a carbon copy of leather face was the cheapest departure they could take.

Do not forget Super Dr. Salvador!!!

That chainsaw enemy blows away every iteration Capcom came up with.

I just love how the first comment of that video has someone complaining about the controls. Yes, a cover system and perfect aiming will make this game the BEST survival horror game ever. They even used The Last Of Us as an example of what perfect controls should be like in a survival horror game. Some people just don't understand the survival horror genre at all....

PS: Good job Mikami. That chainsaw enemy blows away every iteration Capcom came up with.

It's like a mix between remake, RE4 and silent hill. It looks really good from what I can see. More promising than any recent resident evil.

Heres some more from the game.

I see a pretty big combination of RE4, the REmake, as well as Silent Hill here.But its still hard to tell whats going on and what the monsters are, which is actually cool and things are nicely disturbing here as well. Much more so than any RE game in the last decade.

Personally I enjoyed the most recent trailer over the original. I'm looking forward to the game, but I'm not particularly excited. It's too early for that. I'm really interested in seeing how the competition between Mikami's personal feelings toward Capcom and his old passion will influence the game. Its reception will influence RE7 and maybe Capcom can carve out the best RE in over a decade. This needed to happen a long time ago if you ask me.

Hate to say it while you do have a point, its not really a point that holds much weight when other publishers and game directors do the same stuff.

But we cant really judge a game on a few chunks of images and clips.Usually by the 6 months before release date mark kick in theres enough out there to have an idea on what to expect.

Dude...do you realize what you're saying?

Every game and its sequel(s) does stuff like this. Hell, lots of producers reuse concepts and ideas for other series they work on.

Koijima reused stealth elements from from Metal Gear into Boktai.

Miyamoto has reused a lot of ideas for a variety of series.

Keiji Inafune is reusing a lot of his Megaman ideas for Mighty no.9(Which is a spiritual successor to Megaman).

You can't just cherry pick and say its bad because Mikami is doing it. If he does it badly, then thats a different argument. Its also hard to judge a new game when we've only seen little bits and pieces of it. Give it a little more time before you start shitting on it

You asked a question concerning why someone would view his design choices in a negative light regarding RE4 elements, and I offered you an explanation. I'm sorry it doesn't agree with your opinion. It wasn't presented as a fact, and the validity of the statement will differ between people because we don't all experience a game the same way.

[Wrathborne]

Here ya go.

this is for your argument.

[yurieu]

reusing is not a problem, reusing RE4 its the problem

...The guy who made RE4 is the one who made this game. How can it be a rip off if the same person is in charge of development for two different franchises. -.O

If someone feels that he is having to repeat very specific pieces from his previous successes then it doesn't say much for his creativity, inspiration, and originality for his future ideas and designs.

[Wrathborne]

Pretty much this, made even worse with the shown gameplay looking like a direct RE4 rip.

makes me sick all this "from s. mikami"... "father of survival horror"... dont want to flame about this but they should focus on the game, not on an uncertain reputation.

although, there is some leaked prologue gameplay on youtube featuring this trailer theme.
