Capcom set out to make RE8 less “scary” than RE7

Resident Evil’s producer says Village was balanced based on feedback that ‘RE7 was too scary’ | VGC

When we develop a new Resident Evil game, our goal is not always to make it scarier than the previous title, but find a balance to deliver a scary but fun experience for players,” he said.

“Some of the feedback we received regarding [RE7 was] that it was too scary to play,” Kanda added. “In one regard, that’s exactly what we were striving for, so it’s a huge compliment for us.

“But at the same time, it’s always our goal to create something that anybody can feel comfortable jumping in and playing, so we eased up on the tension curve [in RE Village] relative to Resident Evil 7: Biohazard, so that players aren’t in constant fear.”

While Resident Evil 7 put players in a series of confined spaces, “as if the walls of the Baker mansion were closing in on them”, Resident Evil Village’s relatively open environments aim to create tension differently.

“For Resident Evil Village, we took an entirely different approach with the openness of the village and players not knowing what might be lurking beyond the trees,” Kanda said.

“Something we also always have to pay attention to is the tension curve. We also find that people grow immune to fear if they’re consistently pitted up against a tense situation or environment.

“Those moments of solace act as a buffer to make sure that people aren’t completely desensitized to the horror. The save rooms that you often see in many ‘Resident Evil’ games is a great example of that, where players can take a deep breath and know that they are safe.”

Well, this whole thing is a lie after the little bit I saw.

Pretty much

House Benefiento is scarier than anything in RE7, but RE7 overall is way creepier than literally any other part of RE8

Heisenberg was cool but his boss battle was a little goofy

Game is WAY more fire than I expected. This is an instance where I’m glad I was wrong. It’s not as much action as they painted it to be as well.

So nobody is Gonna speak on the final boss moaning before you fight her

Feels like this is the type of game I’d rather watch than play

might cop when it’s cheap tho

 

[Nymbus]

This is easily the scariest RE I ever played. At first I thought it wasn't shyt compared to 7 but it is

Maybe I'm starting to get used to it but that mansion was cozy af to me
except for that basement part

 

[Methodical]

Is this game worth it?. Good as RE7 or better than RE7?. I wish this game include VR which is why I loved RE7 cause of VR.
