Set a few years after the horrifying events in the critically acclaimed Resident Evil 7 biohazard, the all-new storyline begins with Ethan Winters and his wife Mia living peacefully in a new location, free from their past nightmares. Just as they are building their new life together, tragedy befalls them once again. • First-Person Action – Players will assume the role of Ethan Winters and experience every up-close battle and terrifying pursuit through a first-person perspective. • Familiar Faces and New Foes – Chris Redfield has typically been a hero in the Resident Evil series, but his appearance in Resident Evil Village seemingly shrouds him in sinister motives. A host of new adversaries inhabiting the village will relentlessly hunt Ethan and hinder his every move as he attempts to make sense of the new nightmare he finds himself in.

Played a bit past the first boss fight. Probably the safest Resident Evil game in recent memory. Lady Big Booba was such a waste of a character. I found her gameplay to be an absolute chore. Nowhere near as threatening as the Baker couple. Or even Mr. X for that matter.

The castle section is easily a 9/10 for me.

Just the castle section for its pacing, mansion layout, and of course, lady Dimitrescu. Please wait for my final verdict once I get time to finish the game 😄

I mean, the game isn't gonna introduce jumping is it? The fact that you'd rate "what you've played so far" anyway, a 9/10 despite saying the franchise isn't a "pinnacle of gameplay"... is just another example of double standards 🤷‍♂️ :ROFLMAO:

The 9/10 was more for the pacing and level layout. My overall verdict will account for the lack of mobility in combat. The game doesn't even have a dodge mechanic 🤷‍♂️

If the game can maintain the same pacing and over-the-top fun characters, I don't see that score changing.

So pacing + over-the-top fun characters > gameplay. Got it :ROFLMAO:

And just like that, right after the game gets cracked, Capcom miraculously drops a patch to address DRM related issues that have been present since release. Maybe we should blame a different company for Capcom's behavior and stop buying/pre-ordering their games on PC.


In other updates, FSR has been implemented. Better than interlacing (same as checkerboarded on consoles) in some cases, but not in others.

Hotdamn Capcom's own upscaling providing better texture resolve, performance than FSR.. And the PC version still lagging behind the console versions in terms of AA.

I tested with ray tracing enabled on a Radeon RX 6800XT, so maybe RT adds some kind of fixed cost that diminishes the FSR win, but ultimately I found that while FSR can resolve some elements of image quality better than the existing checkerboarding mode, in-surface detail is blurrier and on my settings at least, there is no tangible performance win.

In my own experience with the game so far, interlacing/checkerboard is pretty bad for image quality mainly due to artifacts which look even worse in motion than in screenshots, compared to native quality.






FSR Ultra Quality at 4K seems better suited for higher-end rigs to achieve close to 100fps performance + VRR at all times if native is too demanding.
Interlacing/checkerboard is good for low-to-mid range system that are struggling to reach 60fps.

Though I gave up on the game after the Doll house. Just started to feel like a chore. Will probably return to it later if I'm in the mood for it.

The game turns into an fps after that. Doll house is about as high as it gets!

People are complaining about graphics seriously ? village looks so good, the atmosphere, castle details and what not. well I liked the game overall, finished on Base PS4 and it was quite playable.

My ratings for the game 9/10

    Started Dead Island 2, and i find it pretty lame. The story is shit. The characters are either cringe or bland (all 6 of them), The gameplay isn't fun. Even the goddamn zombies don't behave like proper zombies. They're all fast & intelligent unlike how zombies are supposed to be like. Any fan of "zombie" genre cannot possibly like this shitfest of a game. Dying Light 2 was million times better than this shit.

    tbh gaming industry as a whole is failing much like tech industry. They have buckled down too much to Corporate suites then relying on passionate and innovative people. A corporate only believes in financial growth and shareholders.
