      Who TF is that shitbag at the beginning where you say, "except for this guy. Fuck this guy." And then you show him standing next to a very passively angry Geoff Keeley (@VGX), acting like a total asshole. Who is he and what does he have to do with RE7? Is he a voice actor?
      I mean I've seen his face before obviously, he looks extremely familiar, but I can't put my finger on what I know him from...
      and VGX, I don't really know what that is either, isn't it like PAX only in England or something?

      ​@@rapidrabbit11485 Everything after the ship clearly reveals it for what it was, a VR game. Not that earlier bits shouldn't have tipped you off. But it's obvious they quickly reshaped it into a full priced normal game to cash in on the early preview (the Kitchen) hype.
      I'm not even convinced it's a Resi' game at its core. You get a sense of the Resi' world, happening outside the game. But not in the game. It relies too heavily on other film and game tropes. The "bosses" are absolutely awful and feel like they're from 10 years ago. Not nearly enough enemy types. Not enough locations.
      It should have been a Resi' spin off title at a reduced price. I would praise it more then, but compare it to just any other AAA titles (or even some AA titles) it's MASSIVELY underwhelming. People only praise it because the franchise and that Capcom had finally done something half decent with it.

    Correction for the message bit: the “stay away” message is not the one Ethan got that brought him to Dulvey. Rather, that was the last message he had received from Mia prior to her disappearance. The message he actually got was a simple “I’m in Dulvey, find me” email. For some reason this is not communicated well at all and the email can be easily missed.

      After having played through the game like 5 times on normal with friends, I had gotten used to the scares and I knew exactly what to do in each situation. The game was just that to me- a game. Playing on madhouse immediately brought back the tension. Things are switched up enough to make sure you don’t quite know what’s going on, and the way jack just teleports around the house to fuck with you totally caught me off guard. I had just beat him in the garage, and “knew” that he wouldn’t be around until I drained the bath, but then, as I ran up to the upstairs door, I heard heavy footsteps that could only be Jack’s. Needless to say, I immediately ran back to the safe room and got up to go make food

    I fell in love with the fucked up world Ethan entered. It did everything Resident Evil was meant to be but in a first person perspective. It feels like several types of horror movies, one for each character. I hope RE8 does what this game did.

      @@Rabaikal agree. I would say RE7 might be the only full AAA title that fully utilized it though. There are so many amazing "experiences" on pc, and modded old games, but built from the ground up for vr.. they are few and far between. I really hope the companies finally embrace the tech. Its here and works. It's not a gimmick that's going away. I understand fully why they haven't because of the install base, but I'm ready. This shit is great.

    "I love Joe; Joe is amazing; Joe is the best. ...I wonder if he thinks about ME too...?" LOL. Love that you're going back and doing this review for fun. I really enjoyed the game and DLC.

    RE7 was my top game of 2017. It was probably the most immersed I've ever felt in a video game period. I would almost secretly dread progressing in it because I loved being in that environment so much. Not that I wanna be in a Louisiana trash house but I just loved exploring that game so much. I remember my heart racing right before I had to go down in the basement and slowly rounding corners. I think I've played it 3 times since then and every time I wish I could experience it again for the first time again. I hope to god they follow a similar formula for RE8 with a slow first person ACTUAL horror game. Thanks for the video!

    Ethan never actually got the video message from Mia, it was on the boat computer that Ethan never found due to getting captured by Eveline.
    Also, I wanna see a full playthrough!!

    That ‘End of Zoe’ section tried to make me die laughing. I had to rewatch it three times before moving on; only to discover there were still party hats awaiting me. 🤣

    I have this on PSVR, can't get through the first 30 minutes without having a full blown panic attack. Claustrophobia is next level in VR
