    Return to Horror

    I was a little skeptical when they first showed footage for this game and then after playing the demo thinking that they were just trying to capitalize on the overblown craze that was P.T. What we got instead was a very well designed return to the horror roots of he Resident Evil franchise. To me it wasn't overly scary, the tension however was very high and it made the game for me. Upfront it almost comes off a shooter but then you quickly realize it certainly doesn't play like one. With light puzzle elements and scarce resources, so it's best to limit your encounters with the various enemies. Most of the time you can sneak past or run around enemies without attacking. By the end of the game I had amassed an arsenal of weapons and ammo because I limited my use throughout the game. I really enjoyed the story and atmosphere. The game wasn't overly difficult and didn't overstay it's welcome. I would recommend this to any horror game fan.

      I have been a fan of Resident Evil since the first release, but unfortunately I have waned off the series since Resident Evil 5 came out, just because every release felt more and more action oriented and less about the horror. They took the action right back out with this release, and turned the horror up to the maximum. From the start this game feels beautiful to play, from the graphics being INSANE for a console game (I played the PS4 Pro version), to the sheer dread of going down every hallwa...
