Resident Evil Requiem

RE4 remake on PC is really good. Plays and looks amazing, and don't think it is missing anything. Granted not played the original since I had it on the wii which was really fun as it played like a RE duck hunt

It’s on my list, 4 is in my top 5 all time favorite games, I will definitely get to it

As someone who hasn't played RE since 4, is this first person view new to the series? It's so weird seeing a first person RE game. From what I watched on Twitch it does seem to be pretty cool.

First person had been a thing since 7. Village was also 1st person but they patched in the ability to toggle to 3rd post launch iirc.

Spoilers for the game, but I got a lol out of the PTSD Henya was feeling for this part

The story for this game requires a surprising amount of lore knowledge to make sense, I'm surprised.

If you've not played or at least read about most of the prior games including side games like Revelations, you miss out on a ton of lore reveals and info dumps.

Game has a vibe of Evil Within for the long Grace segment in the medical center with all the creepy freaky mutants and zombies, but the action parts are reminiscent of the recent remakes especially RE4 Remake since it's Leon.

I liked this game's story better than the RE7/RE8 stories about the mold, but they're all pretty high quality games in any case.

It felt like a love letter to the franchise honestly.

So Im enjoying this one. I got it on Switch because my only free time with twins is when I go to take a shit and it runs pretty good all things considered. The game plays super different depending on if you're playing as Leon or Grace. I like how you can somewhat choose how you play via the crafting system.

Bringing back the zombie disposal mechanic from the original re1 remake was a nice touch too. Overall I think they did a great job
