The review embargo is over Resident evil village, and critics shared their opinion – unfortunately, an ultimatum Resident evil Did not work out.
Journalists note that the eighth part has moved away from the horror of its predecessor, becoming more cinematic and varied – this is far from an action game, and the tense atmosphere remains, but also a slow horror style Resident evil 7 there is no need to search here. More like a thriller.
However, fans of RE7 (and RE4) should definitely not pass by – the novelty is diligently trying to please fans of the genre. And most of the time she succeeds.
But what they scold mercilessly is the story – it turned out to be both weak and illogical. Ethan, who was heavily relied on during the promotion, was basically left a faceless character.
They praise RE8 for the variety of the world and opponents, location design, sound, level structure, graphics and general gameplay – here the developers clearly took into account the shortcomings of the seventh part, which got it for boring locations, identical monsters and the like.
Now Resident Evil Village has about 84-85 points on aggregators – this is below the seventh part (86) and the second remake (92). Last year’s Resident Evil 3 remake, however, has even less (79).
