New RE3 news, the city is open-worldish with fast travel and Nemesis can break into safe rooms. The game sounds vaguely Dosnpourish but good.

Makes sense, the original was basically an open world game, too.

RightClickSaveAs posted:Shamelessly double posting, found a good variety of reviews from different sources (spoilers at the end of them obviously) that seem to confirm the game has really gross undertones Hmm let’s see some users comments quote:Have a little kindness. Recall that of all the characters in the story, Leonard is about 3 times more likely to kill himself than any of the others, statistically speaking. Lmao, lots of discussion about age of consent and how “it may be imoral but not illegal!!”

That's not bad but I was hoping for something else although not sure what. Like how I didn't see coming all those years ago that they'd make Soma. But then again; how much do we know about the setting this time around?

Kinda just want frictional to make a web series. The promise of those old Soma videos far exceeded that of the real game.

al-azad posted:Nemesis can break into safe rooms gently caress that poo poo, an integral part of the rhythm of Resident Evil is frantically making a bee line for those rooms and then being allowed to decompress in them while you contemplate how hosed you are. Its the contrast between the comfiness of the safe rooms and the relentless pressure outside of them that makes a resident evil game, for me. It'll really suck if they just become another location like all the other ones. One of my favourite locations in any game is Zoe's trailer in Resi 7.

Yeah I'm a little worried about that. I was super hyped since RE2 was the only old-school game I tried in the series, so this one was gonna be pretty much a complete unknown following off a great reimagining. But I don't want to deal with monsters sneaking into my safe areas e: Night10194 posted:They already said the safe rooms thing was a misunderstanding and Nemmy will be keeping out of the actual safe/save areas.

He’ll stay out of safe rooms but the second you open the door there’s a rocket headed right towards you.

You'll technically be safe, but he'll sneak in and swap your main file for the one where you were at 10% health with 3 bullets left

You're gonna walk in an he'll be in there but his pants will be down and he'll be all 'no no don't come in I don't have pants on oh no'

The demo where you play as a cameraman in a haunted mansion was specifically timed to release within a month of Outlast 2’s demo to ride its popularity.

Well, in that case, I suppose I can see where people would get the impression from. It's still kind of stupid, though. I mean, has there ever been a Resident Evil game that didn't have combat. Would be rather strange for them to start now.

There had never been a first-person mainline title before either

Al-azad made a big effor post awhile back about why you could slam pick some bad judgment al-azad posted:The first demo was the first VHS tape you get in the game, completely on rails with little interaction. The second demo has the axe and empty gun. The third demo, released a full 5 months later, features combat with a single monster. It's still ridiculous to assume Resident Evil which off the top of my head has had combat in literally every game mainline and spinoff would ditch it entirely but at it's a good post

An addendum to that is Outlast’s demo was playable at PAX in April and was publicly released before E3. This convo comes up quarterly so my tldr: Capcom was extremely cautious and tight lipped because it was so different and RE6 was considered a commercial failure despite selling 10 million copies. Was it reasonable to assume it would have no combat? Not really. Was it reasonable to assume the game was following the trends of contemporary horror games? Absolutely. If it wasn’t for the molded RE7 would have as much action as Alien and even that game feels like someone made the executive decision to add androids because they were afraid audiences would get bored of an invincible omnipresent monster which is how I feel about the Bakers -> molded.

al-azad posted:Frictional just announced Amnesia sequel. I'm a little disappointed at the prospect. I liked how SOMA made the fear of walking through corridors with a dodgy flashlight secondary to the existential crisis, I'm not looking forward to a return to "gently caress, nearly out of tinder boxes." Then again, Frictional doesn't seem like the type to go back to the same well, and it might be a sequel in the same manner Machine for Pugs was one.

Frictional has enough money and clout at this point that they don't have to milk their IPs to stay afloat. I trust that if they're going back to Amnesia, its because they want to do something new with it. They've also admitted to a lot of the tricks and deception they did with The Dark Descent, so it probably wouldn't be as effective a second time around.

DreadOut 2 is cool and good. I ran into a game breaking bug about 3 hours in and complained to the dev on Twitter and it was patched within a couple days. Everyone should go check it out. It's kinda jank, but generally enjoyable. The little "urban myths" side missions are awesome and teach you about Indonesian ghost lore.
