I agree. Resident Evil 7 looks like it takes something from RE1 and RE4 Beta and then upgrades it to modern standards. I really love the idea of 1st person view, I think it makes for a more dramatic experience. It surely worked well for Amnesia and Outlast and I hope RE will keep this direction.

Honestly don't even care about the mains series anymore, I just want Revelations continued since that's aimed more at us longtime fans. Revelations 2 was the best one since Code Veronica.

Crystal might not have changed the 3rd person view but Capcom did change the genre of the game in RE4 already

And if RE7 looks nothing like Resident Evil then Tomb Raider 2013 looks nothing like Tomb Raider lol, there are no tombs, just a game with a character named Lara Croft

So yeah, it's basically the same thing

Hypocrite...

Name 1 similarity you see?
This video just proves that there is no need to go first person to have horror. Capcom just wanted to be like the other cool kids so they decided to rape their best IP.

For the first time I am not interested an a main RE title

There's probably more to it than we think. The Playstation VR is going to be released very soon and it needs content to justify its creation, so Sony might have asked for this too. Resident Evil is a good opportunity for that.

I see some potential by going to first person. It limits our perspective and visibility, so the scare can be more intense. I'm not ready to be mad yet, I'd rather wait the outcome first.

I would much rather have the option to switch at least, from first to third person view and vice versa. All in all, it would add to the replay value of the game.

Strictly FP turns me off. I was never a fan of FP games, nor do I bond with the characters that way.

Ah, that little thing reminds me of another horror-ish game that does exactly that!
It's kinda psychological though, less on the zombies and more Silent Hill-ish.

I think the name was "The Suffering".

Are we forgetting that Resident Evil was suppose to be first person to begin with? So they're just going back to their original idea lol.
