With Resident Evil 7, the survival horror series hit the reset button. As it sought to reinvent itself and go back to its horror roots, not only did it take a back to the basics approach, it also started from scratch in many ways- and as such, it was a pretty focused, zoomed in experience.
Now that the series has a steady foundation in place though, it’s looking to escalate things with Resident Evil Village, which is RE’s next step forward in the first person horror space. Many things separate the two games, with the upcoming sequel making several changes and improvements over its predecessor, and here, we’re going to talk about a few of them.

New channel name, ResidentEvilBolt. Also why the hell does Chris always look so damn different?
GamingBolt: BIG Differences You Need To Know
Me: Let me see…
GaminBolt: 'drumroll' PHOTO MODE!
Me: REALLY?
I'm sorry it's to much hype and push for this game before actual release. I'm not going to preorder it. If it was in 3rd person I would have been preorder it doh
I'd say that they have injected some Nintendo into their product. Looking forward to playing this game.
Just hoping this game doesn’t stray from the horror. So far it seems more action focused
Spoiler alert!
Chris doesn’t kills the actually Mia. Although it could be a subject to change so take it with a grain of salt.
I have a feeling that Chris is playing as a double agent to gain the trust of Mother Miranda and The Four Horseman. Blue Umbrella must of leaked information to Chris about strange phenomenons in that village and have been keeping tabs on it ever since.
Ethan being a boring character was deliberate, it helps you fill the shoes of the character.
Chris is a werewolf that is being controlled and ethan has a virus and a well known character will come in and one will die.
I miss the 3rd person games already.
Ethan was designed to be the “Everyman”. He was the most approachable and relatable character that Capcom had designed. Just a guy looking for his wife. I love him. Now he’s a guy who’s been through some serious crap and that’s shaped him. Plus he’s a father. Get ready for a new Ethan to make an appearance.
Eithan was cool I think the regular guy approach is what was needed for survival horror..too much scientific nonsense is what takes away from things
!!funny people
Didn’t like 7 when it first dropped, but now seeing 8… I gave 7 a chance and didn’t hate it. Glad I could catch up before RE Village. Excited to see lycan Chris Redfield!
RE first person sucks
but why is the Ethan’s face obscured?
27 gb of shit game i ask for refund
Im convinced Chris is infected with something (or is becoming a lycan) and Since Ethan and Mia were exposed to the rot virus in RE7 their daughter may be the key to a cure
so we wasted hours in the first game saving mia just to watch her die in the very beginning of the next game? no thanks. not buying this. i hate that kind of plot. it makes me feel like i wasted my time.
Two weeks to go!! I'm pre ordering the deluxe edition for Xbox One. I'm glad CAPCOM put RE8 for last gen consoles as well. I can't afford another xbox right now
The main difference is RE8 feels like a full, fun, action horror game. RE7 felt like a boss rush tech demo that got boring after the first good hour.
RE8 feels like a new version of RE4 but without Leon. And that your saving a daughter, your daughter and it's first person game.

Mother Miranda = Jill Valentine…. Calling it
I NEED to know this?
Okay listen. Instead of the Mr. X and now Tall 8 foot lady gimmick (which cool, scary). Not implemented the most sandbox,
have a TOUGH ASS ENEMIE, that does chase you down. sporadic orchestra scary music plays if he's near. But you can kill him. It just takes a bitchload of ammo/etc. And you have from hour 1-30 or whenever to kill it or keep running. Killing it unlocks I donno, say even the key to enter the final dungeon. I think would be more exciting than the current gimmick.
"No, we're not talking about Re:Verse" …let's just all agree never to talk about Re:Verse.
I hate everything RE4. I hate that 8 will have a stupid merchant to upgrade items. GO BACK TO TRUEEEE RE!
If in Capcom are a bit smart, they'll change the look of Chris in RE7 through a patch.
Went back to their horror roots only to go back to the action shit all over again in the next game.
I think Ethan was just a perfect protagonist in RE7. Not some emotionless (and often cheesy) supersoldier, but just a regular guy going through some heavy shit and he reacts to it, like you would expect someone to react. It´s much more relatable than other RE "heroes" and that makes a horror game much scarier (Silent hill did that well back in the days too).
Even during RE7 Ethan grew as a character. He eventually got tired of the horrors and decided "f*** this sh**, If that´s the way we´re gonna do it, fine, lets go" and instead of running, he started to fight back because what did he have to lose?
He´s never gonna be some new superhero for Marvel series, but he´s a great horror game protagonist to relate.
"Ethan was boring"
But, he's not supposed to be interesting. He's just an average guy who ended up in this nightmare. Like a defenseless protagonist. He's made to be this way so that the player feels less defensive than they were with most other combat trained heroes, like Jill, Chris, Leon, ect. And personally, I really like their decision of just making him a normal guy. But that's just my opinion, I respect the fact that you think otherwise.
So I want to help people understand, never once was resident evil about zombies it was about the T-Virus plain and simple. Which has changed sooo much but that's the whole point in resident evil, it's always changing the virus always changes. I mean the creators never once said (this is only about zombies) people have just assumed that. Heck even the original licker design for RE1 looked more like werewolves then what they do now, that was a last minute change. So them being a werewolf like creature now is the most original thing they could ever do.
Gaming bolt makes the exact same video over and over
Us: Watches it anyway
I hope I will like the character just like Leon and Chris in this game
Will it be in VR?
Chris is Michael Scofield?
In 7 Chris Redfield looks much better, what happened to him?
Mia can still survive like in RE7
Chris in re 8: kill that woman
Clair :yo wtf big bro
Leon: why chris
I liked Ethan , he always said exactly what I was thinking.
I wonder if Chris is only doing this to save Jill or, maybe Eveline’s power is somehow a part of Rose. Who knows maybe Ethan is just Albert Wesker in a different body. I also question if Mother Miranda is Alex Wesker.
They should just remake outbreak for mp mode
