Tfw Capcapom has ruined the storytelling of RE7 with its last DLC
>Wife missing for years, sends message to come to bayou in middle of nowhere
>Family lead by Jack Baker are insane mutants who chase you for days
>Jack in Particular is an infinitely regenerating Nemesis type BOW
>Constantly chuckling with malicious glee as he follows you like some demonic hillbilly
>Later MC is being infected and pulled into the shared hivemind of the E series tyrant controlling them all
>Inside this mindscape he meets acks real persona and hes a polite, thoughtful and caring southern family man who doesnt care for revenge, or even getting away. His one dying wish as his conciousness winks out is "Ethan, please. Save my family"
>Finish game with a bittersweet note that he was just an innocent, loving father who one day found a girl in the bayou after the storm and took her into his home not knowing she was a BOW that lead to all this mess.
>Final DLC comes out
>Jacks brother shows up to see why the family has gone dark, finds Zoe in crystalis form and tracks down E series vaccine to save her but is constantly hounded by a more classical tyrant
>Gets to the end and pulls tyrants hood off
>Its jack baker
>With the mind control gone hes just a regular monster now killing people and spreading the E virus much father than the actual E series Bioweapon did
>In a canon piece of dlc they undo all goodwill for the character and turn him into a generic monster again.
What a fucking lame 180.
*also yes it IS Chris and Umbrella is now a PMC working for the BSAA to clean up their leftovers. Lucas was working for a new group called "The Collective" who have a connection to the story of fucking Umbrella Corps.

7 is actually a really good game. It does fps better than dead aim or revalatons and it goes back to the 'i need the snake key to solve this horseshit, obtus puzzle' stuff that made the series good.

How exactly does this ruin his character? By the end of RE, the Jack we've been fighting is a monster corrupted entirely by the E-series. If he were to survive, he probably wouldn't get a sudden change of heart. Not after his whole family was mutated and destroyed. What we see inside the collective or whatever is the psychic remnant of the man he used to be, pleading for MC to end his suffering.
Unless there's something in the DLC that shits over this interpretation?

RE7 is a game of 2 halves. The first half is a bad jump scare walking simulator. The second is classic RE with a new camera angle. An angle that works well considering how often you're being chased or trying to avoid someone who you have no way of seeing without turning towards them and slowing down.
It crates tension like RE1's camera did but differently.

yea but the FPS with limited resources shit doesn't really lend itself well to well resident evil. I liked all the games I saw 4 as a radical but good departure 5 took away the limited sandbox that the other games had(4 already started this but it worked out well in 4)
then the rest of the games came out
Played 6 for like 15 minutes at a friends house and didn't like it
Played through 7 and felt underwhelmed nothing really happened tbh I just chased around a bunch of goo monsters and had that endgame flashback scenario(which I thought was like a midgame thing but nope this is the end)
RE7 felt unfinished, I didn't like the FPS mechanics I thought they were shit(for example Condemned 1 did FPS survival horror better than this game honestly I think Condemned the fucking xbox 360 launch title is better and more memorable than RE7)

RE7 doesn't feel unfinished, it feels over extended. You have this twitch bait opening until you get to the main house.
Then you have a solid RE FPS where you start weak and running from everything to getting a shotgun and pissing on everything that tries to stop you.
We reach the RE second location part with the bug cunt woman's area and we get another spooky tape. It's one of the few times RE had effectively brought back horror once you've equipped to deal with the situation (shotgun for travel, grenade launcher for boss).
Lucas' arc starts here where you have a break from the action to solve some puzzles. A classic RE trend where they use a difficult puzzle to break up the action and let you lose a lot of tension ready for a ramp up in difficulty.
After that we end up in the escape section, which feels like the end of the game is coming.
OH SHIP!! Now we have another 2-3 hours of the game left when it was clearly wrapping up and we just fought a final boss tier monster. Ship isn't bad it's the lab replacement. It works story wise but gameplay wise you're wanting things to wrap up not to reset.
Then you have the mine which is a pure slog. The ship was already over extended by an hour or 2 when fatigue is setting in. Now you have a huge mine section that doesn't even wrap the story up as Lucas escapes.
If we then add the No Hero DLC to wrap up the Lucas story (I don't know if it does or not) it becomes even longer. At which point it's just ridiculous. There's nothing wrong with long games that suit it, RE7 doesn't suit being a long game. It feels like it was padded to be the same length as the original titles while having a very different feel that doesn't work for that length of time.
RE7 took the Nemesis concept and implemented it in a different way. Having a Nemesis you can't kill who taunts you the entire time he chases you is an interesting idea. Even more so when you take the camera into account which gives you much less vision than the fixed camera did. A fixed camera rarely hid anything, you know what was there or had time to react to it. RE7 doesn't give you this option. You have to run and yet your least visual feedback is given when running away. You can't hide behind a wall and know what is huninting you's actions.
6393eb No.13976780
>>13976755
Long games need to be approached adequately. If you absorb it all, fast and furious, you will end up bored midway through when nothing novel happens anymore. Like binging a game and its sequels (or several campaigns in a MMO): the latter seem samey and boring, because you just can't stand doing the same things anymore.
Simply put, the game was developed to be played over a longer period of time: to enable cooldown. Imagine, we've gotten to the point where we resent games for being too long: I blame the 360 generation.

The 360 was the era where this problem started to kick off because people started judging games based on length the way they did JRPGs in the PS1 era.
A games length has to be balanced with pacing. When a game has bad pacing then even a 6 hour game is going to feel tiring because of it.
RE7 is a good example for this because it has a false ending. All game you're working towards this cure and escape, you get it and this huge monster appears. It's trying to stop you escaping so you kill it and you're ready for the game to be over. Suddenly you're set back from 95% done to 75% done when the ship happens. You're denied the ending you have been getting this entire time.
RE2 drags slightly in the middle but then picks up again near the end so the lab doesn't feel firing. But by the end of the lab you're about ready for the game to be over. If instead of the ending playing when you beat the boss inside the train it took you to another facility with another couple of hours gameplay RE2 would have become a slog as well.
Games need pacing more than any other medium. You have to keep introducing new content people care about without giving them a false sense of their progression. The end of act 2 of a story shouldn't feel like the end of act 3 or people will end up fatigued from it. There is a difference between a plot twist and killing the main antagonist after he takes on a horrific giant form that dwarves everything else in the game right as you achieve your goal.

Nah its a problem caused by the attempted realism.
The molded are a product of a serialized bio weapon, so its logical that they are all looking the same. After all the people who made it want to sell it.

The DLC was pretty shitty in its delivery and I didn't like the fact that the DLC was just "guess who's back faggots?", but he was always going to just be a generic Type-T without Eveline controling him. The mold shit that Eveline spreads is basically cordyceps and destroys your brain.
