Current Events > Just beat RE Village for the first time. *spoilers?*

(+) Yeah! (+)

Ending was mindblowing, that's about the only part of the story that truly caught my attention. Seeing everything from 7 come together and even have it be the true origin of how the entire series started was pretty awesome.

On the gameplay side, it was really fun! I loved the Souls/Metroid-esque design of having an entirely interconnected world, being able to open up shortcuts and even be rewarded on exploration by finding significant secret areas. Though thinking about it that's kinda how the classic RE games were, except for the secret areas bit. The doll house was definitely a highlight for me outside of Lady D's castle.

Now I'm just curious what kind of DLC they might be developing, since they confirmed they would be. Maybe a sequel story following Chris and Rose? Then again they may use that for a future game entirely. It's possible they may just make more Mercenaries stuff too.

I will say it got a bit ridiculous with hiding Ethan's face when it came to the end. His head was slumped so low it looked almost unnatural.

ethan having no face/identity was borderline comical at the end and dehumanized him.

and before anyone says "that was the point!", no that was not the point. literally the opposite, his drive and love for his daughter was meant to be extremely human.

I guess maybe they were trying to make Ethan be "you" by putting yourself in his shoes, but that kinda thing doesn't work for me when he's an established character with his own dialogue and choices.

Everything else about the game was great though.

I really liked RE8. Beat it a trio of times before putting it down, not because I didn't want to play again, but because I wanted to avoid burnout when I give it another go in the future.

Game really was great. I enjoyed my time with it a lot.
