This basically just Outlast?
Was on a run, just finished RE2 and 3 Remake, first time ever finishing RE games.
Liked them well enough, so I thought I'd keep it going, but so far, this one seems nothing like these games, feels like more like Outlast than anything, a game I really don't care for to begin with.

This getting any better?

Coming from a person that was born in the early 80's. yes, this is great! How about you play the old school RE2 and RE3 on playstation 1 and 2. Sorry you are spoiled in this day in age for graphics in gaming.I feel like RE7 is a game changer like Silent Hill in Horror on old school Playstation.

Friendo, I was born in 84, and I didn't play the originals because I didn't care for them even back when there were released. The awkward fixed camera alone was something I had no patience for.

Had to wait until the remakes came around and made something decent of them finally enjoy these games. Shame they didn't do the same for RE1.

You call it being spoiled, I call it having standards.

Also, hate to break it to you, but I really couldn't care less that you somehow feel offended that someone doesn't like a game that you love, nor about your pathetic attempt to insult me as if the opinion of someone who clearly isn't capable of a rational thought (like for instance, a textbook fanboy) even means anything to me.

Heeeh, I wrote this post but anticipated that I wasn't gonna get a decent answer from the cesspool that is the Steam forums, especially this long after release, when all you can find on a forum are the hardcore fanboys (and thanks for proving me right), so I just checked out a walkthtough to see if it got less 'Outlast-y' past the point I reached, and clearly yes, it's basically just that, running and hiding from a hillbilly family that experiments on folks.

*Sometimes* they throw a regular monster to shoot at for good measures, but that's clearly not the game I wanted to play.

Guess I'll just check out if I can play the "Not a Hero" DLC without having to finish the main campaign and uninstall if not.

the action picks up more and more the further you get. Most people like the beginning better than the end. DLC should all be available, when bought.

Outlast is one of the best horror games, but RE7 is even better, and it's Capcom's best game.:steamthumbsup::steamthumbsup::steamthumbsup:
The first part is like Outlast I guess, as well as certain moments in the game, but here's the difference, you have weapons to defend yourself!

I dont think so? Since the first few hours are only there for the newer generations who hasnt experienced the older, inventory management and survival horror games of the boomer ages. However, it is pretty much easier in every aspect compared to those classics like Silent Hill(s) and RE 2-3. I did find it weird, how the developers expect and encourages you to replay the game with more and better equipment though, both sounds like something from those boomer ages, and for the current landscape of running/walking simulators like you have mentioned. :p

No, this game doesn`t have much in common with Outlast. In fact, this game seems to have a lot more in common with Resident Evil.

In Outlast you spend the whole game hiding and running away from enemies, whereas here you pretty much fight non-stop. Aside from the first person perspective and similar atmosphere, it is not very much like Outlast at all. If I had to compare it to other games, I'd say it's more like Condemned or the more action-y parts of Alien Isolation.

definitely not anything like outlast whatsoever

Not at all.

The atmosphere is creepy, the horror seems real, it's pure survival with few ammo and crafting, and the story is great (when you take the time to read the clues you find along the way). So who cares if it's similar to Outlast in terms of settings.

Another OP who posts some inane ♥♥♥♥, people disagree with them, suddenly they feel the need to type out their life story and calls everyone stupid for not agreeing with their inane ♥♥♥♥. It's like poetry.

It's like Outlast in the sense that it's horror, first person, has a camcorder like view, and... that's basically it. I can only imagine you made up your mind and didn't even make it to the first combat.

You get guns, have inventory management, solve puzzles, get keys, has Mr. X/Nemesis type roamers, etc. so it has quite a bit in common with the old RE games and remakes and little to do with Outlast. Judging by your comments though you just don't want to understand and are just digging in your heels defending your initial flawed conclusion you drew based solely on a casual glance at the game and saw video camera and first person horror.
