So the first section of 7 was just a modern day first person RE1 mansion. The first section here is straight up RE4 complete with being saved by the bell.

Came across a normal seeming villager and her papa. Ethan didn't mention to her that I'm a recent widower. Might only have been a couple of hours ago, but someone's gotta help me raise my baby when I get her back.

Wow a whole little community of survivors. I feel like they're about to offer me sidequests or something. Very weird for a RE game.

Nevermind. That didn't last long. Just me and my new wife now moving forward. She can be my Ashley.

Nevermind.

The fuck is this guy with the hat? Magneto?

What the fuck IS this game? This is so damn out there for a Resident Evil. A whole community of freaks with super powers. Also I knew that big woman was big, but dayum!

Made it to the (what a) mansion. Met the Duke whooooo is also a monster man? Perspective is weird here, especially in VR, but he appears to be ridiculously huge and not just super fat. He actually said "What are ya buyin'?" and said he got that from an old friend, so Merchant lore finally unlocked I guess.

Got captured by Lady D's daughters. Ethan is the most durable man ever with all the abuse he's taken. Lost a chunk of his hand and some digits, got meat hooks in both of his legs, sliced through his hands.

Some cool shit I discovered in VR and have no clue if it's in the base game. For one, you can throw the knife and break stuff. It's surprisingly fun. You can also throw knives at rapid fire. I've yet to test it out in combat. You can also straight up do CQC. Got the knife in one hand, the gun in the other. Fucking sick. And you can just dual wield in general. Was able to hold my shotty and my handgun at the same time. IDK how effective that's going to be unless I get two pistols or TMPs, but pretty awesome that it's doable.

Stopping for the night. Didn't get too far, but very good first day. Combat and controls are still overwhelming me, but it has made for some good and tense escapes with me just running for my life. Game looks great and it's a noticeable improvement with the faces and animations after just replaying 7. I don't know about the whole setting and story though. I absolutely loved the simpleness and return to the franchise roots of 7. This is a super RE4 style of game. Got straight up wolfmen and giants living in castles and shit. It's all cool, but was all this really caused by some biohazard? I accepted Las Plagas obviously, but this is a lot. Very curious to find out more and see where this crazy ass story goes.
