No Spoilers Official Resident Evil: Requiem Disc **FRIDAY

[Dizzy]

Better than the sum of all the live action adaptations.

 

[GtehMVP]

That's how you do it!

 

[My Spot]

Live action cutscenes?

Live action cutscenes?

It's only for a promotion. There won't be any in the game itself. Kind of glad though, it would be immersion breaking.

Somewhat off-topic, and not yet worth making its own thread until officially announced -



I've said since RE3R was released a CV remake has the most potential to be an epic reimagining of the original, not just putting it in 3rd person and call it ready for release.

I haven't played RE8 and probably won't play Requiem until it's cheap, so those who have would be better to make a list of the huge improvements they could easily copy & paste into a CV remake.

So Grace is getting 5 costumes and preorder comes with one called Apocalypse.

Dimitrescu redux is another and looks good, IMO.

Bought this and Nioh 3 together and no where near done with Nioh. Hoping to get to a good spot this weekend to give it a good break. Love me some Resident Evil. Put an ungodly amount of time into the RE4Remake.

Isn't Grace's default camera in 1st person? Feels like Capcom designed the game for her to be played that way and 3rd person for Leon. Kind of why I decided to go with the standard edition because I don't think I'll see much of her unless I do a second playthrough.

I actually ended up using that ten dollars to preorder the deluxe edition of Pragmata instead. I think the costumes fit in better with that world and the camera angle is perfect for seeing both characters at all times.

Dude has literally never skipped leg day, lol. Would not want to get into an argument with.

Agree with you on camera. I'm used to 1P from Village so will have to experiment. One thing I want is camera distance slider to free up my FOV. Nioh 3 (Team Ninja) does this and it's becoming more norm now. Hope Capcom on top of that.

Gentlemen, just preordered. Very excited. Let’s get bloody.

Who’s got their preorder in? Zaz?

Yeah I preordered a few weeks back. People online say never to preorder but I buy what I know I'll enjoy and reviews don't mean much to me. I also have Pragmata, Saros, and Marvel Tokon preordered already. Marathon could get a purchase if I like the beta. A lot to look forward to. I just hope I can avoid spoilers since Capcom is already warning people that they are out in the open.

Yeah, preorder for me is graded.

If the studio has long done right by me, it’s not a concern and rather show of support + practicality of having it queued and auto-downloaded because I can’t remember all these release dates.

If I’ve been burned by studio, day-2 buy or later, game state depending. Show me the game and I’ll show you the money, basically.

Requiem and Marathon are good examples for me. Very interested in Marathon but not giving a cent until I see launch state and changes. Capcom has been on absolute Derrick Lewis-grade fire last couple years and am coming off the time of my life in Village so they got my money.

Discussion tag updated for launch week and beyond: NO SPOILERS, dawgs.

Yes: Celebrate, criticise, talk very early-game weapons, gameplay – all good.

No: Bosses. Plot twists. Mid- or late-game story points including chars, weapons, and their acquisition. Secrets. Puzzle and/or trap solutions.

Use our spoiler container for longer-form thoughts and paragraphs or our inline spoiler to blur simpler stuff. Easy.

Looks like this: Just died to Colonel Mustard by fireplace poker in the library!

Look for Zoro masque in ribbon above message field:



Thanks, survivors.

I love the Resident Evil games, but Capcom loves their claustrophobic/nauseating FOV's. Iirc it's always intentional to make things more "tense/frightening", but thankfully there's a usually a mod for the best ones. Jill's ass should be visible at all times in Revelations lol.

There was no fix for Revelations 2, Resi 5, and RE4 when I played them at first. They were all unplayable for me, gave me motion sickness, but OG Re4 got that fan overhaul which gave you full FOV control. The RE4 remake was better, same for RE2 natively at least

I can't remember 7, but 8 had several solutions for an FPS FOV fix when I played it, but you lost HDR as a result.

Hopefully they give us sliders, especially for 1st person.

Metacritic prediction? 10 AM ET review embargo lifts tomorrow. Going to go with 91. Just slightly below 2 and 4 remake but considered the best of the newer games.

The night is dark and full of spoilers. I want to be spoiled but don't read the comments section on any Twitter or YT review.

Indeed. The only thing I'll be scanning for is performance, but I have little doubt it will run great like all their games have since RE7, one of the best engines ever!
