wow. i loved that demo. i haven't been scared playing resident evil since...I don't remember when. they just ratcheted up the horror to 11. i'm just remembering the last resident evil demo i played, for 6, which i didn't care for. re7 just became one of my most anticipated games and the fact that it can be completely played on playstation vr is fantastic

Been experimenting with running the tape and looking for ghosts
- I don't know if I'm timing it badly, but I cannot reliably repeat a sighting from run-to-run
- I originally toyed with the idea of getting all 7 sightings in one tape play, but I'm not sure it can be done
- Spotting a ghost has no apparent effect on the present.... though I wonder if there is anything special about the locations where she is sighted? Of course, one of the spots is outside, so maybe not
- The headphones(or noise cancellers) really must mean something, but I can't guess what
- Regarding the German Capcom person who said the axe is needed for a certain situation... I wonder what that situation is?
You can try uploading a save file. It will give you a two day trial. Someone told me about this last night, and it worked for me.wish i could help but my ps+ ran out

Hey, that was a great idea, though
Shit, I thought it was doing that because i hit it with the axe. Any Morse code experts here on GAF?

As far as I know yes. Seven is a big number in this game.
7 mannequins
7 dolls
7 ghosts
7 planks on boarded up doors
7 words on the note near the tv
7 words on the back of the helicopter picture
I've seen seven on all my play throughous.

I just played the teaser for the first time (before consulting this thread), and apparently missed quite a bit in my first run through, including the axe. Either way, I really enjoyed the teaser and thought the atmosphere was perfect, creepy and tense without feeling forced. I genuinely wanted to search and examine every aspect of the house, but at the same time wanted to skip outta there.
Glad to see that people are digging deeper into the teaser and discovering new stuff. I'm going to play it again right now, and try to find some of the stuff that's been mentioned in here, like the ghosts during the VHS parts.

Could the phone message change depending on x number of ghost sightings perhaps?

Wait, so when you answer the call, the Family Man gets you. But there is a way to make it back down stairs without him getting you, right? So what if you answer the call, make it back down stairs, and watch the tape again? Would it reset the phone, and would it be ringing again?

Got the axe, answered the phone upstairs.
Immediately held my axe up in a defensive position. (L2). Didn't notice before, but you throw off quite the shadow with your axe.
Hugged the walls with my back initially, but then walked downstairs, and popped the tape in again without getting attacked.
Hmm.

One thing I did notice in my one short play through was the locked drawer in the kitchen. Anyone know what's up with that?
great minds think alike
Lockpick it (in the vhs by the microwave) to get an axe in present
check first page/reddit link, you'll probably need that to not be confused in here

The sockets lol
I greatly enjoyed my first playthrough of that. Without knowing much of what you guys have discovered, it definitely reminds me of the backstory of a character from I believe one of the Outbreak games, bear with me because this was over a decade ago.
In one of the titles, there was a man who, upon exposure of the virus, didn't die, instead he slowly sort of rotted away while keeping his consciousness and awareness. Unfortunately it ate away at his psyche and kept hunting people down to infect the same way he was, through a plant like the one in the Umbrella labs. Keep in mind this guy was infected from like, before RE1, and survived until right before the city was destroyed.
The vibes I got from the demo was a possible tiny-scale outbreak that, instead of say being a zombie virus, instead slowly mutated a group of people over almost a generation

You have to upload a game save file(from any game on your ps4) to the psn cloud(or whatever it's called). It will offer you a two day trial.

You need to unlock it while playing through the tap. To the right of the microwave is a little nook with a lickpick on the floor.

Are there any fires in the demo? Celluloid is flammable

I've tired a few times, he gets me everytime. I think its possible.

If this is the case it's gonna be awhile.
I tried walking backwards, the man came from behind the door. :/
At this point, everyone knows celluloid is flammable, but we haven't learned of any method to heat it up.
We should really post a "where we are" in the OP. Regarding the finger and the axe so these common questions could be addressed there and everyone can be on the same page.
