Can You Imagine What SureAI Is Going To Do With Garfield?
I really love the story in the Village. I wonder if this is going to be directly related to the previous game.

Hopefully it isn’t open world as some have claimed.

Here'e me hoping will be neither like Village nor like the Remakes. Keep things fresh Capcom.
Worried about the budget claims though. They should keep that in check for RE games. Pouring too much money into them is a bad idea - see RE6.

Jan 2025 would be great, you'll hopefully have the Pro out by then to help 'quality mode' look and perform the business.
I doubt it will be Open World - Resident Evil games have a formula and that would be too different. I could see some more expansive areas though, personally I'd love it if they introduced some more horde style areas with easy to kill zombies appearing in high numbers.

Oh man, can't wait. I've loved ALL the RE games since 7. I don't care if it's 1st person or 3rd, they've all been amazing. Need to replay Village and 4 in VR.

Can't say I've high hopes for RE9, plus and acording to rumors, it's going to be the first open world RE game, which is not something I'd like \ love to see in RE games.
Thank fuck there's no Winters family anymore and all of the crap related to it. Good riddance.

I'm afraid it is a sacrifice we must all make to appease the dark lord in these trying times.

I'm there day 1 for any RE, this one sounds like it's going to be very special indeed.

Why on earth should I if I can just ignore the game and save money for RE game I actually want to play?
I'm not totally writing off RE9 btw... yet, cuz I haven't seen what it actually is, what it is all about, how gameplay looks like etc. etc.

I only wish they would make proper RE3, but well the rest was golden.

lol. I always wonder why people always want anything exactly catered to their tastes and preferences.
Most sense would make to simply allow both. They should know how to do RE in both ways by now.
First Person definitely makes sense if they keep their VR affinity which they show towards both VR2 and Meta. They are practically the only third party doing so.

"Ambitious", but it still will have basic shooting mechanics and easy puzzles.

Day 9008 of hoping for a Sheeva cameo in a new RE game
But since the game (RE 5) was supposedly developed and written by the KKK, I doubt it will ever happen.
I'm genuinely asking, not a "gatcha" question.
I didn't play RE Village, and I don't think I will (Don't like first-person RE). I thought Ethan and Mia were very mediocre in 7, it would have been better if they were just bad.
Do they get worse in Village?

Do you guys mind elaborating on why you don't like the Winters stuff?

Zero interest in seeing how will the story continue, but I'm guessing an ending to the fungus saga

I really, REALLY hope it's not open-world as some of the rumors have suggested. Would make me immediately uninterested in the game.

I'm torn. I still really want an over the shoulder RE engine remake of RE1. But I also want 9 to see where everything goes, I just hope it's good. I thought Village was fine but a lot of it felt oddly on rails or something to me.

I can see them doing something with what was revealed of those BSAA soldiers actually being bio weapons. If so, I imagine Chris being the main protagonist this time. Also hopefully Jill will be there too.
Personally, I'm always rooting for having Jill as the main protagonist.

I am indifferent about the IP taking a new direction. As far as I am concened the remakes for 3 and 4 are the best games in the franchise since the inception of the franchise. The newer titles have been difficult to replay due to being too drawn out and lacking in entertaining gameplay mechanics. I have high hopes for the next Remake on the other hand.
Resident Evil 3 Remake is the peak of what the IP can attain in terms of narrative and gameplay. Original Resident Evil 3 is so trash it makes Code Veronica's mediocrity look like a masterpiece.

Sheeva is great and she needs to comback in future traditional RE games as the main character instead of Chris.
Sure. They're very bland, extremely mediocre, completely uninteresting, terribly written and there's just absolutely nothing to like about them at all, even from the visual standpoint. I'd say more, but it's relatated to the ending of RE Village so I won't.

Since RE2:MAKE the most reliably great game series (yeah, even RE3:MAKE) despite multiple creative teams enabling frequent releases. RE7 was decent but didn’t compel me to replay it, shitty slime monsters and kinda lost its mojo after ending Jack Baker’s human form.
The open world rumour’s my greatest fear for the next game, hopefully it’s just an evolution of RE8 and RE4’s interconnected villages, not something that takes a 10-20 hours first playthrough up to 50-60 hours+

They updated the game a while ago to include an optional 3rd person perspective.Day 9008 of hoping for a Sheeva cameo in a new RE game

I didn't care much for the Winters family in RE7, but they grew on me a bit in RE8, particularly Ethan. The DLC is quite nice from a character perspective too and ties everything up with some imagination left for a possible future.
I played RE8 4 times and platinumed it. I guess I can say that I thoroughly enjoyed it and I recommend it. Specially in VR.

If 9 is first person, I won't slit my wrists or anything. But I liked 7 and 8 despite them being first person, not because of it. The third person update to 8 makes me think they heard the fanbase and maybe they'll make first and third selectable options in all new REs going forward.

That's supposedly the next Resident Evil to come after Apocalypse (RE9), planned for the FY ending in March 2026.
