Just got knives out

S*** was surprisingly fun, but damn it took a while to knife some of the final bosses, especially knifing the mutated guy during the chris redfield section

cleared the game in 2hr 30min so it ended up being dashing dad run too lmao

can you use the laser to kill mutated urias or no you had to just use knife, also can you just do it on casual?

nah you can’t use the laser, knife only and it takes like 8 minutes lol you can only stab his right leg. Yes I recommend casual for knives out

sounds like a challenge ima try later this week, im guessing you used the knife from the bonus shop

One of the best engines in gaming

I was too shook to try it with Chris’ knife I had to grind mercs to get the saber

I thought about doing it but getting SS on everything sounds way harder, however I suck at mercs

It really wasn’t that bad if you just copy peoples runs on YouTube

yea I did

just finished this, super good. i think i liked 7 more tho

my ranking for mainline RE games are:

7
4
8
2 (OG, haven’t played the remake)
5
1
6

haven’t played 3

that s*** was the creepiest part of the game for me

i think it was the director who said they were shocked most americans found that so creepy lol, they didn’t realize how a lot of us were freaked out by dolls and s***

Donna kinda bad tho

Ethan be like

lame ahh

"you're the one that's cursed"

With 7, the remake of 2, and the remake of 3 (to an extent), Capcom has been doing really good with modern RE. I was a bit skeptical when the leaks for RE8 were talking about werewolves, and vampires and all, but the end product worked out extremely well. The setting is very well done, capturing the mystery and haunting aura that RE4’s village had. And just like RE4, this game is zany as s*** lol.

The game’s overall structure felt like a revised and more straightforward version of 7’s. Going through the 4 lords feels somewhat similar to going through each member of the Baker family. I will say though, the Bakers were just better man. They have much more depth and character then any of the lords.

Lady D has the most going for her, but all of her stuff was in the trailers, so if you been following the game, you really didn’t see anything new with her unfortunately. Which also sucks even more because the Castle is the best area in the game and the first area. That is less of an RE8 problem though, as that’s more of a RE problem in general.

Beneviento gets a lot of praise for how terrifying that section is (which it is pretty spooky), but I have one major gripe with it. Once you go through it the first time, the charm and the magic is gone, so on replay, playing through that section is more so a chore. I’m not dissing the presentation of the section at all, just from a gameplay perspective, there isn’t much. It’s like the video tapes in RE7.
Moreau’s section is also kind of a gimmick area, but even worse because he doesn’t really add anything to the plot unlike the other 3 lords. Heisenberg is so interesting, but you don’t get enough of him. It felt like there was much more planned for him, but it got cut or something. His area was good though and his boss fight was FIRE. Need to have a DLC with Heisenberg forreal.

Not gonna get into spoilers but all imma say is, yeah the plot is kind of nonsense. But it’s Resident Evil. The plot has always been kinda nonsense lol. Ethan is fine, don’t see where the hate really comes from at all. Chris? Kind of an a****** tbh

I had a great time with this game, and it was worth the wait. Very interested on how Capcom is going to approach the RE4 remake now, considering they just put this out.

If I had to rank:

REmake 2
RE4
REmake
RE8
RE5
RE7
REmake 3
RE0
RE6

House benevietto is mad annoying to play through each run

I wanna get this but need that sale to come around

Just played RE2 remake for the first time and beat Claire’s story

S*** was incredible wish I had spent more time backtracking, I think I missed a lot stuff at the police station

Super excited to jump into the Leon one

The doll’s house in RE8 is literally as scary as RE7 holy f*** my heart is pounding

I think it’s one of the best parts of the game even tho it’s really easy

right. that part was crazy

i think it was the director of the game who said he was shocked at how many americans found that part scary

he said he didn’t realize we were scared of dolls lol

my ranks

RE4
RE2 (remake)
RE7
RE8
RE1 (remake)
RE5
RE6

haven’t played 3 or 0 yet. but i have the 3 remake downloaded

Lmao that’s hilarious it’s so interesting how Japanese and American audiences react differently to Resident Evil. Like the demons and zombies are probably really scary to Japanese players because of their culture but to us it’s not because it has no cultural significance to us.
