I can tell they don't like backing up what they're saying. I get that people don't like to type long posts like I perhaps do. But yeah, okay. Don't stress yourselves.
Half the time, they post plaintive comments like, "RE7 is like any other RE game" and they don't even say why that is. I fail to understand where their logic lays in that regard. Again, if you're gonna say something like that, cite a reason. Say why you think it's a RE game.
LOL, no. I'd argue home the point that RE7 is certainly not like any other RE game from 1996. 2002. 2005. 2012. 2015. I couldn't give a shit whatever the year is. It's just a horror game by Capcom, that has things from RE games of the past mentioned in it for the sake of there being a subtle link. But other than that, it's a different game entirely. Most people can tell that right off the bat. It's a separate storyline that continued in
Village, with the same dude who was seeking his wife, is now seeking his daughter. And well, his wife too, I suppose. I'm not sure if he knew about Mia still being alive, although I'm sure Chris did reveal to him that she was being held captive.
If you took out Chris and the references to Umbrella, it's barely a sequel. It's just a game that's called RE7, with the Japanese name of the franchise also cleverly included.
RE6 may not be everybody's top tier example of a RE game, but that's way more RE than RE7 will ever be.
