Thinking of playing Resident Evil 7 in virtual reality? Here's why you should.
The original PSVR has a great catalogue of games, but keeping the set-up working well can be a pain.
Join us as we take you through the basic gameplay of Humanity, an action-puzzle game where you control a glowing Shiba Inu. You place commands on the ground for a giant marching horde of people to follow. Make them turn, jump, float through the air, swim, climb, etc., all to reach the goal (or goals) in each stage.
Players have long debated the merits of third-person as opposed to first-person perspective in games and the topic has recently resurfaced on Reddit, this time concerning the long running Resident Evil series. The discussion so far has generated somewhat heated opinions from users on both sides of the argument.
Resident Evil has a long history of using both perspectives, with some entries in the series like Resident Evil 2 and Resident Evil 3 offering players a third-person view, while others like Resident Evil 7 provided players with a first-person perspective. Some fans believe third-person allows for better visibility and control over the character, while others believe that first-person immerses you more deeply into the game's atmosphere.
Third always
It's what it's always been and how it's meant to be played whether it's fixed camera angles or over the shoulder.
There was a time when I would have agreed but if you've got a vr setup the 1st person RE's are on another level.
That being said, they can both exist because they're both fantastic.
Exactly. If there was no VR version available or possible I’d say 3rd person. But because of the extreme heightened immersion, VR trounces the flat screen version, so 1st person please.
They should have the option to have both going forward imo. But I do prefer third person view
I love both and the new mainline RE games should stay in first person for at lest one more game that’s why i hated that Capcom for some reason added third person in RE8 .. like why ? What was the point ? It just lost what made the new games unique and different. Re7 is a gem and already such a classic, it’s RE1 of this generation or well the prevous generation i guess i should say and RE8 is bonkers and so fun. Such great games.
Playing this game on psvr is amazing and i cant play the game on a television anymore after playing it in vr
It's best not played at all.
Would love too but Sony decided to fuck around and throw money for exclusivity for a niche market in it's infancy so fuck me right.
It's more intensely creepy and you definitely feel more involved with VR. Graphics are stepped back obviously and at times you can see how the 3d environments were pieced together with 2d images. But nonetheless, it's an awesome experience to be had!
