VGChartz's Evan Norris: "So, the two questions on everyone's mind: how is it, and does it play like Resident Evil? Short answer: it's scary as hell and plays nothing like Resident Evil, past or present. With its first person perspective and heavy sense of dread, RE VII plays similarly to horror games like Amnesia, Outlast, and the Silent Hills teaser demo P.T. There's no combat at all in the demo. There is some light puzzle-solving, but it's rather straightforward and easy."
Who says a dud game can't have a video game comeback?
Cyberpunk and No Man's Sky have to be up there. We're lucky and cursed, equally, to have games that can be updated now. For folks old enough to remember the Sega/SNES into PS1 and even 2 eras, if a game came out that was half baked (*cough*Angel of Darkness*cough*) that was it, no redemption. At the same time, having the option for updates shouldn't be an excuse for half assing games.
There are some great VR games but when it comes to iconic series, we think Resident Evil is VR's most powerful IP.
The greatest Resident Evil games (and Resistance) have joined the GeForce NOW library as part of this week's GFN Thursday.
