I agree, but I'm confident it'll sell better than RE7 anyway... Just a hunch.Maybe i just haven't been paying attention, but I don't remember a major Resident Evil game releasing with so little hype and excitement.
How's the game?
Am I only one of the only few playing this game. Funny as I barely bothered about this game until the game launched (as I avoid horror games, & movies for that matter).
Mid game review:
I play super slow, (I am the type that will backtrack to save point after killing some mobs or done key actions which add to the time). I play on default difficulty which is okayish. Ammo is pretty generous for a RE game, & upgrades are affordable as long as you are selective & explode every area reasonably.
I like the map system (first used in RE2 remake) where it shows if you have complete search the area (blue -complete, pink-incomplete) as well as highly which doors, structures you have to interact with but cannot access & in many cases, which key to use when applicable. This made exploration so much better. WHy didn't more game uses this system is beyond me.
The puzzles are the better ones, not just as RE games, but in general. What makes it good, is many are quite logical. It is also Metriodmania vile with areas unlocked over time with more tools/items, similar to some other RE games.
Considering it took place in one location, there is a great level of diversity & you do not ever feel overly copy pasta like many times.
I avoided RE7 because the demo made me uncomfortable with its grotesque sense of horror. But I've been watching reviews and playthrough vids of this one and its been described as theme park horror, spooky but not overly gross like the last game. And now because of that description I'm interested in this game. I'll probably wait for it to go on sale though since I'm not a big fan of horror games even if its only mildly scary.
I'm confused. What load times are we talking about because I haven't experienced any.I have heard from others that Returnal is scarier than RE8 because of the tension of losing all your progress when you die.
Been reading that the load times on the PS5 are kind of insane... can anyone confirm?
In like for like, the Ps5 loaded in 1 second while XSX loaded in 4. In another, it took 2 seconds for the PS5 to load, and for the same scene it took the XSX 8-9 seconds?

The loading times in general.
I guess I haven't really noticed it.
John talks about it in his analysis at 16:50
Now, 8-9 sec loading is too long.......I have heard from others that Returnal is scarier than RE8 because of the tension of losing all your progress when you die.

RDR2 took minutes on my PS4. Things have progressed greatly.
On PC, the only noticeable loading is initial loading on continue/new game, which like 4.5 sec or so. It was too shot to notice.
I have a condition called Pediophobia/Automatonophobia which is fear of dolls/mannequins, & one level is very uncomfortable for me. Thankfully it was pretty short, & I reduce the phobia by having youtube on another screen.Wish I wasn’t such a chicken but I just don’t like horrors. Looks great though. Enjoy all you lot brave enough.
