I'm particularly torn about the level design aspect. On the one hand, I think the actual "Village" hub area level design is supreme and compelling, there's a ton of hidden nooks & crannies and exploring it all was one of the most rewarding aspects of the game.Yeah, to be fair to RE7 I really wasn't able to engage it how it needed to be engaged. I just don't like the style of game it is. Meanwhile, Village cuts the stuff I don't like and plops in a bunch of shit I do like. I will say there is definitely a quality difference in exploration between the village itself and each individual branch, but I think the gameplay and thematic style shifts between everything so substantially and so fluidly that it doesn't hurt my opinion of any part as much. An entire game of village-like areas would have been fantastic, but probably wouldn't have been able to work with what some of the areas intended to accomplish. I'm sure the significantly cohesive experience of RE7 is preferable to many, especially with it's intent to accomplish horror at almost all times. But I love the changes Village made and wouldn't want them to have changed much, beyond maybe making the swamp more engaging. --- http://i.imgur.com/l7xxLh1.jpg PSN/Steam - RoboQuote ; NNID - TazzyMan ...
