Resident Evil Requiem

I have mixed feelings about this game. But first of all, I want to give Kudos to Capcom for their excellent use of the RE Engine in terms of optimising the game. This game, like all other previous RE titles runs like a dream without any performance issues or hitches whatsoever and its a testament to how the developers love and care can truly make running games a breeze, a thing which is sadly lacking in most AAA or even some AA games nowadays. Okay now to the game itself. I felt that the game was too familiar to the style of the RE games I have been playing recently. Basically, the game fluctuates between the story of 2 protagonists, Grace Ashcroft and Leon Kennedy. Grace's gameplay is focused more on the survival horror and inventory management and Leon's gameplay on more action and gunfights. While playing Grace's section I felt that I was playing a mix of RE 2 remake and RE 7 all over again, which were really great games in their own way, because RE 2 was a punishing game and RE 7 tried something different with the franchise which I appreciated. To have a mix of these 2 games in Grace's section did heighten the tension and created some intense encounters, however the sense of familiarity really felt flat and repetitive to me after a few hours. Its not bad by any means and I actually preferred Grace's sections more than Leon's, but it felt that I have already been there and done that before. Now, Leon's sections were clearly inspired by the RE 4 remake and fans of that game will actually love his gameplay the most. But then again, while I love the original RE 4 and the remake as well, I wanted a different style of gameplay with Leon. If I want to play a game similar in style to RE 4, I'll just play RE 4. There were some sections which I expected to encounter more like the open style area of Raccoon City which I found was quite new in terms of an RE action game but sadly, that was just once. But I did like the length of that section and I hope they make more sections like these in future RE games. In terms of story, its not great by any means, but I liked the characters of Grace and our man Leon and how their stories intertwined narratively. I also liked how the game's story connected with the first game which gets quite overlooked and also loved the hidden easter eggs scattered all around the game for hardcore RE fans to find. So overall, I would't recommend this game at full price considering the gameplay is too familiar with previous titles but its still a good entry into this franchise. I give it 7 Hip Pouches out of 10.

Мой первый RE от первого лица и вторая пройденная часть (после оригинала с ремейком RE4) делает то, что и обязана крупнокалиберная, дорогая игра — развлекает, причём с хорошей развесовкой между буйством кортизола и вбросами тестика. Но в (успешной) погоне за кинематографичностью, мне кажется, почти полностью утерян дизайн-код: не хочу устраивать охоту на ведьм как crowbat, но причесать и залить pathtracing-ом бородатые ассеты однотонных коридоров с коробками и двумя источниками света — это уровень Unreal Paris, а не магистральной части серии; но я, конечно, и сравниваю с панк-роковской RE4 из памяти, при знании остальных частей лишь из видеоэссе. Пройдя процентов..60, полагаю, моё мнение вряд ли изменится: механически всё здорово и заставляет через кирпичи идти вперёд, уж при обилии ресурсов-то (цена расширения аудитории) – даром, что именно секции за Грейс играются живее и интереснее, хотя в FPV[spoiler]мирного неба всем[/spoiler]-хоррор с фирменными нотками заново-родившихся резиков я не верил до последнего. Дядя Леон здесь на сдачу - и именно его наличие ярко подсвечивает не самый удачный брак жанров, который едва сшили за 7 лет разработки (адовой, судя по инсайдам). Не жалею.

Overall good game and good RE title. I was surprised how similar it is to... RE6, sections when Leon is saving Grace at the church location reminded me a lot about the Cathedral with Helena and Leon, motorbike section made me felt like I was playing RE6 remake or something haha, coming back to RPD in it's current state was... a very nostalgic experience. Luckily there is not much QTE unlike in RE6 xD I have some complaints though, character movements feel a bit clunky and just odd to me. Leon stance/idle is like he's 68 not 48. Story like almost always in RE is full of absurd, why the hell would Grace suddenly basically follow her enemies just for Leon to save her again... I get that she is a blondie but come on! Combat sections are good, at least when playing as Leon, Grace sections were a bit hard to get by to me tbh, her movement is super slow and she can't even do melee combat like those badass women of RE6 were able lol But I mostly liked the stealth and horror like sections, nice change of almost constant combat sections which again felt like déjà vu from RE4/5/6 to me haha, I don't complain as I like combat in those games, but sometimes it was a bit too much. Oh another thing that made me think about RE6 was that some zombies were using... guns.. XD They can even aim sometimes! This is too weird to me, but also very funny. Sounds and music is good, graphics is great, controls are okay, no crashes for me so technical side is very good. Overall 8/10.

oyunu almamla bitirmem nerdeyse aynı anda oldu, o kadar sardıki başından kalkamadım capcom yine yapmış. oyun iki karakter ekseninde gidip gelen bir hikayeye sahip grace bölümlerinde korkuyu biz hissediyoruz leon bölümlerinde ise zombiler korkuyu hissediyor.. eleştiricegim en önemli nokta oyunun hem bana göre biraz kısa olması hemde ilk 4 saatden sonra biraz hikaye tarafında düşüşe geçmesi leonla oynadıgımız racoon city bölümleri gerçekten biraz tekrara düştü. ama bunlar kücük seyler oyun her türlü ortalamanın bi hayli üstünde sonuçta capcom yapıyor kötü olma şansı çok çok düşük :D onun dışında oyunun lore u gerçekten muhteşem şekilde resident evil serisinin ana lore una bağlanıyor. özellikle eski oyunlara yapılan göndermeler çok hoşuma gitti...

I'm going to keep plowing through this game but I will never enjoy a game that just makes me constantly stumble when I run. It's so cliche, and literally nobody does it. Also, running "like a girl" (yes, she's a girl, but "running like a girl") from the big bad monsters is absolutely eye-rollingly dumb. Also, the FBI is recruiting girls like Grace? Come on. Leon is great, Grace is awful. This game sucks. It's almost like they wrote it to fail. Sigh....the RE series has been going so long, I guess it's just inevitable. No original ideas at Capcom anymore. Enjoy stumbling? Game is 10/10 Enjoy weak useless protagonist women? Game is 10/10 Everyone else is going to play this game and go "What the actual F were they thinking". Slop.

Очередной прекрасный резик, что еще сказать. 10/10.

La verdad es que me ha encantado. Resident Evil Requiem tiene una ambientación increíble, momentos que dan bastante mal rollo y una historia que te engancha desde el principio. Además, mezcla muy bien el terror con la acción y hace que quieras seguir jugando todo el rato. Para Grace todo esto es un infierno, pero para Leon es un tutorial básico se la pela todo 8/10 Juegazo

incredible story and characters. the acting is so good that it makes it feels almost all too real at times. environment and ambiance is perfect, and the game looks absolutely beautiful. this game is like capcom took all the best parts of each previous resident evil game and rolled it into one new unique game.

Absolute class. My Game of the Year.
