So much was cut from Lost in Nightmares, didn't even end up releasing stuff included in the trailer.

Edit: I say cut but it a mix of cut and never finished.

 

[finley83]

I didn't like Lost in Nightmares either. The final boss was infuriating, and also I always struggled to maintain interest beyond the halfway point. Having to play the whole scenario in one go was also pretty annoying.

 

[kamineko]

I've flipped since release. I used to love LiN and feel pretty meh about Desperate Escape, and now it's the opposite.

I've said this before, but I feel that Raid Mode could stand to learn a thing or two from Desperate Escape

 

[Dusk Golem]

I like both Lost in Nightmares and Desperate Escape about the same, did on release and still do. I think they're tied with 3-1 as my personal favorite chapters in RE5.

Desperate Escape I've always thought was a good accumulation of the 'struggle' fights in RE5 that are pretty intense,and I think is a well designed series of action-scenarios (though I have mixed feelings about the finale). Lost in Nightmares I enjoy exploring and think it's a lot more fun to try to avoid the enemies than take them on. I also like how both chapters have a few randomized elements for replayability.

I loved playing as Jill

 

[Jawmuncher]

I like lost in nightmares as a speed run experience. It's fun just running past all the enemies.

I played it recently and got surprised too lol. I always think I know when they'll spawn, but they still manage to surprise me sometimes on the higher difficulties.

At what time can we expect the PC demo to be avaiable on Steam? >_>

Like 7 or 8 est today I forgot which

 

[Dusk Golem]

PC demo will hit 4 PM PST / 7 PM EST.

Basically in about three hours and 15 minutes from now.

 

[How About No]

LiN was a fun, albeit shallow, little throwback.

Did you check the front door a few times?

 

[Brhoom]

I hope my gtx 970 can run this well in 1080p on high.

 

[RSB]

Lost in Nightmares was ok, but nothing to write home about. The last cutscene and final boss were pretty cool, and the nostalgia of the first section was nice (on the first playthrough) but that's about it.

Desperate Escape, on the other hand, was totally amazing. 100% non stop co-op action, precisely what RE5 does best.

Yeah, that's the only way I play it, really.

 

[SargerusBR]

Only a little over more than a month left until RE7. I should start replaying the series real soon. Never finished my playthrough back in June.

 

[BBboy20]

Posted this in the ESRB leak thread, but we know who has the chainsaw now. Surprised no one was talking about it.

I wonder if that's where he might die, or perhaps becomes a more grotesque monster

Spoiler

a character's arm dismembered by a chainsaw; a man's leg taken off at the knee with a shovel; a character impaled through the face with a shovel.

Could in essence happen all at once

Dr. Salvador is never leaving this franchise, is he?

 

[ArkkAngel007]

Missed it the first time, but in the screen with Jack you can spy another chainsaw to the left that's embedded in a body.

 

[Dusk Golem]

Oh dear... Apparently the demo wasn't scrubbed well enough... There were some MAJOR unearthed spoilers about RE7 in the code of the Beginning Hour demo of RE7. Not sure if it should be posted here on GAF or not. What do you guys think?

It has a list of probably every enemy in the game, every weapon, and even a few story spoilers due to trigger names (and a few interesting trigger names).

 

[GAMEPROFF]

Make a thread, write SPOILER in the title and have a good discussion.

But please tell me, are there storywise connections to the other Resi Games? Just a yes or no

Yes. There's a HUGE spoiler that would definitely connect it to other games.

 

[GAMEPROFF]

I wont look at this, just tell me if there is a storywise connection that can already be seen

Edit: THX

 

[strafer]

TELL US! =)

 

[Jawmuncher]

There's a story line connection that can already be seen like dusk said. I hope he makes the thread soon, will be interesting to talk about

 

[strafer]

Just looked the stuff up on Reddit, please don't be true.

 

[Spinky]

I only saw one thing.

If it's true, I'm conflicted and I think it makes zero sense at this point, but at the same time... fucking hype.

 

[Dusk Golem]

I'm really debating if a topic should be made or not. People are still mining it (there's thousands of files to go through), but it apparently includes every objective text in the game for example. so debating, debating.

 

[Spinky]

If anything, I'd make one just so people know it's out there so they can be more weary if they want.

 

[kamineko]

Seems like a thread would be a good way to give folks a head's up (as has been said) and centralize the discussion. Folks will be talking about it either way

 

[SargerusBR]

OH SHIT
OH SHIT
OH SHIT

I saw that thread on reddit

 

[Dusk Golem]

See Jawie went through it, it is news but as the game has been doing secrecy for a while, it's a shame. But long as keep it in that thread we'll be fine.

 

[Lord Frieza]

I'm tempted to look up spoilers, but I think I'm going to just wait. We're less than a month away, and I might as well go in blind. I will ask one thing, is there any mention of any classic RE creatures at all? Just yes or no, if it's yes I'll just be surprised.

No

I'll probably stay dumb at this point. I haven't watched any vids about RE7 in months

 

[ASilentProtagonist]

Ony spoiler i've looked at (final boss) "

Spoiler

Albertlastboss

" Well, shit.

PC community spoils the fun at times. Good thing we don't have to spoiler dodge for too long.

 

[Akiller]

Do the spoilers clear even more if the game turns more "modern" RE after the parts Capcom has been advertising so far?

Does sound like there's some more action in here than capcom has been letting on.

 

[Brhoom]

I only watched the first trailer and the quick videos.

I hope I don't get spoiled...

 

[Jawmuncher]

The whole game seems to be out now, just not super story specifics.

 

[strafer]

damn

 

[ASilentProtagonist]

So.. How's it sound? I think there is a lot Capcom hasn't shown us

 

[Jawmuncher]

About half the events so far. As someone who has been very wary of the game. It's sounding good. So I think anyone who was already on board should be in for a treat.

Awesome to hear. I only know that

Spoiler

Albert

is the final boss so hopefully that's nowhere near the craziness that is in store.

 

[strafer]

Now if they could add a third person toggle I might consider getting the game.

the first person is the only thing standing in the way.

 

[Akiller]

As i thought Capcom didnt show that because it 'd have ruined all the "back to the roots" marketing/hype train.

I wouldn't worry about that. Looks like that is referring to something else and not the actual final boss.

CAPCPOM pls

 

[Psxphile]

PC was a mistake.

lol

 

[Jawmuncher]

PC was a mistake.

lol

To be fair, if the xbox one and PS4 were cracked in some form to read the data I think people would have done the same. Back when RE5 released there was no PC demo, but people got all the info they needed from the RE5 360 demo.

At least it's close to launch. Imagine this amount of info back when the first demo hit.

 

[How About No]

Not going in that spoiler thread, not gonna do it

Gotta take pills to supress growth of urges

 

[Gradon]

I'm very sad. Hopefully I don't see any spoilers by the time the game is out 🙁
