Resident Evil 7 spoiler thread!

Loved this game. Screamed out loud few times which made me giddy with excitement.

I know in the Derelict House tape you can use the lock pick to access a coin. Are there any interactions like that in other tapes??

Umbrella has been revived but it isn't the same Umbrella. It seems they've returned to the BIO4 background story. We don't know anything about Ethan, but his apparent lack of care is just because he is meant to represent the player, and having the character out-of-tune with the player's own emotional state is often not good for the kind of horror the game aims for (especially in VR).

I hope this gets expanded on in the free DLC Not a hero.

I loved this game, I think it's now tied in second place with RE 2 for all time favorites. I can't decided which is better, although I am leaning towards RE 2 being slightly better (mostly because of the music and monster variety).

Speaking of this game, I am a bit confused about the story. So, is Chris Redfield working for umbrella and is umbrella revived from the dead? I got the impression of that and that Ethan was working for them too and the whole game was just umbrella trying to dispose of one of it's own rogue bio weapons.

We haven't seen anything from the DLCs yet and I'm playing on a PC with the game installed on a SSD.

Could've been longer with more enemy variety

It suffers from the jarring loading of REV1 and REV2 as well. You can be walking along and suddenly get a massive FPS drop because the game is loading something in, whether it be a random encounter or something else.

Solid 8/10 for me and it's a completely different beast from those games. Could've been longer with more enemy variety but that's my only real complaint.

News Bot, I've been waiting years to ask you what your personal rating is for this game (out of ten) and how it compares to the 'action trilogy' as a whole.

H.C.F.

Fucking H.C.F. is mentioned finally.

I caught on that too. I don't know if the translation is different but what are your thoughts on the whole ending Hunk/Chris stuff with the Umbrella Corps helicopter at the end? The only thing I am eerie about is the fact this was made by the director of Revelations 1 and the initial trailer showed Hunk and a Clone/Double Ganger Chris Redfield tied up.
Probably my last post onto this as I tend to post on Neogaf and wanting my details gone from here so will give a read from time to time initially
