Anyone thinking of getting Dying Light 2? 4 player co-op, could be fun. Thinking of trying it out when it hits this week.
 
I loved the second game, when it came out almost 5 years ago. It was like an action packed Silent Hill game, and yet, few people really cared for it. In my opinion, it was the best real horror game of the 2010s, and something I long to see more of.

Some of the enemies do give you those vibes. In fact, one such enemy, the Keeper, has a bank safe for a head. But he's supposed to be a homage to Pyramid Head from Silent Hill 2. Why anybody thinks it's a bad game, I don't understand. It's better than even RE8.
 
is there a chance for third person view? I don't know why all the NEW videogames has to be always in first person, they are not trying anymore with animations.
I’m with you on the first person stuff, it’s a cop out and lazy way to portray a main character. Especially when they deliberately hide their face like Ethan and want you to feel like you are in the game… yourself lmao.

At least in games like Fallout 3 and on could change view. Gamers these days want more options on how to approach their games. Only 3rd person game to give me motion sickness though was ORC.. which was an impressive feat.
 
Screw motion blur and camera shaking in games. I only came across a few games were it couldn’t be turned off but still. Who in their right mind enjoys getting motion sick and disoriented?🤢

Agreed. Head bob and camera shake drive me crazy, especially when playing on KBM.
 
There's a State of Play event happening today, I believe. Can that mean something will be announced for Resident Evil fans? ;)

My mum is doing okay. I cannot say she is out of the woods yet, though.

Thank you for the continued support. :)
 
I am really bored these days. :p
I relate with this 100% Honestly I don't give a shit for a new RE game because since Umbrella Corps everything is ruined for me, Capcom polarized the fanbase too much that I can't even stand them. I'm not interested in new videogames and to the idea to play a new Cinematic progressive AAA Sony game, the idea makes me want to barf.
 
I always told myself if RE were to die or I would lose interest; I would quit gaming altogether. Especially around 2018 when all these AAA games were coming out like GoW reboot and RDR2; where people were raving about them being masterpieces. I couldn’t make it through any of them and realized that gaming was changing and I may have started to finally grow out of it.

Thankfully Horizon Zero Dawn and Forbidden West have won me back over, but my god can developers stop with the first person horror games? They are a dime a dozen on most platforms and are a cheap tactic to get a few jump scares out of people and nothing more. It’s essentially fast food gaming in my eyes.

If people wanna do first person make it VR only. I am a firm believer first person mainly belongs in the shooter genre, because that is where it shines the best and is also it’s very own foundation with Wolfenstein and Doom. Otherwise we get over saturated with walking simulator’s that feel like a waste of time.

Still looking forward to Callisto Protocol and Dead Space Remake. Also, I hope Project ILL becomes a thing, despite it being first person. I love body horror stuff.

This post isn't about RE for once. LOL. But I have toothache. Got a repair kit for a filling, but no clue what to do. I am not a dentist.

My check-up dental appointment isn't for another month. But with a check-up, you usually have to go back for any treatment. :p
