RE7 scares the fucking shit out of me. I much prefer the prior RE's. RE7 is just an overdose to the senses you can barely play with the sound on. Its just that good.
Too good.

I likened it to being "Found Footage: The Game"
There were genuinely times i dint want to walk down hallways or enter certain rooms.

Yea, Resident Evil 1 was the same. They actually harkened back to the original when developing 7, attempting to recapture the survival horror roots it came from.
Resident Evil 5 and 6 were both awful games.
I will never forget hearing the clicking footsteps of a Hunter coming down the hallway n my way back from the guardhouse. You dont know what that sound is when you first encounter one, but you usually found out after getting 1 shot decapitated by a hairless, green, ultra jacked rape gorilla claw dude thing. It was a sense of dread everytime you heard their claws clicking.

Finally managed to sit down after my rage induced failure of hardcore getting through the intro. Have three saved games and stopped when Leon sees Claire in the monitor at the police station. Keep going back to earlier saves once I figure out how to go through an area and save ammunition, lol.
Is this what the entire game is going to require?! Hah.

The knife can stunlock lickers to death if you want to save ammo. They also can't leave whatever room/hall they're in, so it's pretty easy to cheese them.
Apparently the PC version is easy mode if you uncap the framerate. Knife damage is definitely tied to fps like the old Dark Souls 2 durability bug, and I saw a couple people saying that it takes less ammo to kill everything too.
For Claire A, I felt like I almost had too much ammo. I finished the game with like 150 machine gun bullets, 5 flame rounds and like 10 acid rounds even after the final boss and I was executing everything in my path. With Leon A, I'm back in the police station and I have like single digit ammo constantly. Probably due to the fact the grenade launcher basically 1-shots everything no matter the round you use.

Basically my experience exactly.
The game would be so perfect had it had "lulls" in the terror. Shit example, but not really though its kind of atmospheric horror I guess-- but Diablo 2, where you had Act 1 then you take a break in Act 2, you still fight some bad guys but its "normalized" music and baddies. That feeling of relief from Act 1 to Act 2 is what I look for the most in survival/atmospheric horror. Take me high then take me low. Give me a rollercoaster.
Instead its just basically nonstop assrape of your senses until you tap out and a) lower volume to inaudible b) jack brightness to heavenly c) read ahead on the guide

Im ashamed to say, but I never got through 7.
In the original RE, there were many instances where the player was given a break. A lot of it was high tension, but the "safe" rooms where the chest and typewriter were, are great examples of life raft locations to get your shit together. Hunters are much more dangerous than Lickers IMO.

Does anyone else see the last decade of RE games and wonder 'WHY THE FUCK CAN WE NOT GET A SILENT HILL REMAKE LIKE THIS!?!?!?'
Jesus, it would be amazing.
Edit: Oh yea, forgot about the PT game that was so scary it made people just turn off their consoles. Cancelled by Konami. Fuck them so hard.

The early Silent Hills were amazing. The atmosphere and pace were excellent, as well as the puzzle's and overall gameplay elements, including itemization and effectiveness of some of the enemies.
Im not sure why Konami doesnt jump in with a remake. They could just basically copy the Evil within/ The Last of Us template as far as control scheme goes, and just recreate the morbid atmosphere of the original couple Silent Hills and they would have an instant winner.

Even reading ahead on the guide and viewing screenshots of what to expect doesn't help to be honest.

What an incredibly well done game!
The atmosphere was amazing; not as scary overall as 7, but I think that game gets a slight edge with the "lonely house in the middle of nowhere" feel. The way everything was reimagined from the original in terms of story and characters was great.
Difficulty-wise, I think the game falls into "difficult levels, easy bosses": William's mutations I found to be easier than facing lickers for the most part. Only boss fight i thought was "hard" was the battle with mutated Mr. X at the end: doesnt seem to be really any strategy and it became a slug fest where I was stocked up on plenty of health items so it didnt make that big a spike in difficulty.
Depsite my nitpicks, I seriously think we have a potential game of the year contender already, what a way to start the year.
