The next entry in the world’s most popular survival horror franchise,\u00a0Resident Evil 8: Village<\/em><\/a> is already looking to be an absolute blast. With everything we enjoyed about\u00a0Resident Evil 7<\/a>\u00a0<\/em>seemingly coming back, we can’t wait to get our hands on another round of undead scares.<\/p>\n

Coming\u00a0out of Capcom’s\u00a0Resident Evil<\/em> showcase gave players a much better look at what the game would offer this time around, but it also led to new questions as to what will happen and how it will be executed with the next-gen hardware. What did\u00a0the devs learn from\u00a0RE7,<\/em> and what mistakes will they inevitably make and fix with\u00a0Village?\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n

10 <\/span>Do: VR Support And Optimization<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

A lot of players were excited to see\u00a0Resident Evil 7<\/em>‘s<\/em> dive into the world of virtual reality. With the game being the first main entry in the series to go full-first-person, it was a welcome addition\u00a0to the\u00a0immersive horror experience.<\/p>\n

This new direction\u00a0in both hardware and the franchise as a whole was fun and exciting, if not for a few technical hiccups along the way. Many players found themselves losing interest after graphical bugs and resolution drops took the immersion out of the picture due to hardware limitations or overlooked bugs.\u00a0RE8<\/em> looks to be an increasingly gorgeous and inviting game, so here’s hoping Capcom works out the issues and gives players a better first-hand look into Castle Dimitrescu, sans blurry pixels and nausea.<\/p>\n

9 <\/span>Don’t: Crafting<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

Crafting, a mechanic made popular by some of the best modern survival games<\/a>, has been pushing its luck a little too far lately. Sure, it can be fun scrounging for items and combining them to see what happens, but when\u00a0the game isn’t built around these mechanics and provides you with not only limited space but limited time to perform these combinations, it can get frustrating fast.<\/p>\n

Sure, Resident Evil\u00a0<\/em>games have always featured combination mechanics, but those generally came into play with puzzles, optimizing healing items, and reloading weapons. This is fine and\u00a0intertwines perfectly with the gameplay of classic survival horror, but trying to balance\u00a0a million inconsequential items while also trying to make room for ammo, keys, and puzzle items can get overbearing quickly.<\/p>\n

8 <\/span>Do: Inventory Management<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

We all love\u00a0Resident Evil 4’s<\/em><\/a> approach to the inventory system, and seeing it come back is always a treat. The\u00a0pure game-feel of inventory management can be extremely satisfying as long as it’s balanced.<\/p>\n

With the addition of crafting mechanics, “inventory Tetris<\/em><\/a>” is either going to be an absolute joy or a complete wreck. With one bad move on the developers’ part, balancing crafting components with healing items and weapons will become a chore, and lose its fun. However, if the game knows what it’s doing then this will all be perfectly accounted for.<\/p>\n

7 <\/span>Don’t: Resident Evil 7’s\u00a0Identity Crisis<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

Alongside the various graphical bugs listed previously, many diehard fans of the franchise felt themselves slipping after\u00a0RE7’s\u00a0<\/em>harsh departure from the series’ conventions.<\/p>\n

While the fun new mechanics<\/a> and POV were exciting, the game seemed to be having a bit of trouble with its newfound persona, and though promising a whole-hearted horror experience, stumbled a bit along the way. The biggest critiques of the game focus on the idea that it presented too many new ideas without fully delving into them, with players citing the mix of horror and action that seems to flip back-and-forth at a moment’s notice, then focusing more on action near the end.<\/p>\n

6 <\/span>DO:\u00a0A Unique Identity Of Its Own<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

Resident Evil<\/em> is known for its genius (albeit sometimes ridiculous) design, and judging by the reveals thus far,\u00a0Village<\/em> will be no different. So far, it appears as though the enemies are much more diverse than\u00a0RE7<\/em>, which relied primarily on the Baker family and slight variations of “the Molded.”<\/p>\n

Players seem to be more than satisfied with the new designs,\u00a0with the new main antagonist<\/a> becoming an immediate fan-favorite despite her air of mystery. In addition, the\u00a0Dracula-<\/em>esque undead in the basement look great, and the apparent\u00a0werewolf enemies in the village are an exciting premise that the series has surprisingly left unexplored until now.<\/p>\n

5 <\/span>Don’t: RE:Verse<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

The\u00a0Resident Evil<\/em> franchise has taken quite a few dives into spin-off territory<\/a>, for better or worse, but recent years have shown a distinct lack of interest in these titles. RE:Verse\u00a0<\/em>seems to be the most offensive of these attempts since\u00a0Umbrella Corps<\/em>, with immediate backlash across the fanbase after its reveal during Capcom’s showcase livestream.<\/p>\n

The timing of this announcement is strange, seeing as the company only just released\u00a0<\/a>Resident Evil: Resistance<\/em>,\u00a0a promising title that could have flourished if it had only been given more attention and support from the devs.\u00a0Really, all the playerbase seems to want is a reboot of the classic RE:\u00a0<\/em>Outbreak<\/em>, which wouldn’t be too big of a task for Capcom, who seems to be putting plenty of time into the series as of late. RE:Verse,\u00a0<\/em>with any luck, will last a few months before it’s inevitably taken out back and given the good old\u00a0Miranda Rights<\/em>\u00a0finisher.<\/p>\n

4 <\/span>Do: More DualSense Support<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

Controllers are one of the most important parts of a new console launch. One bad design choice and your players’ hands will hurt for years. The Playstation 5, however, seems to have found the perfect next-step for their revolutionary DualShocks, and seeing the new DualSense features<\/a> come into play has been quite the joy.<\/p>\n

RELATED:\u00a0The 10 Best Resident Evil Clones, Ranked<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

Horror games are the absolute perfect playground to put these features to the test, and we’re hoping\u00a0RE8<\/em> delivers on the literal skin-crawling impact that DualSense could bring to the immersion.<\/p>\n

3 <\/span>Don’t: The Duke<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

Reminiscent of Marvel’s not-so-subtle “haha fat Thor” jokes in Avengers:\u00a0Endgame<\/a>,\u00a0<\/em>the entertainment industry doesn’t seem to get that we’re not laughing when it pokes fun at diverse body types. More often than not, this only serves to dampen the emotional impact of more serious moments, which can make or break any piece of media.<\/p>\n

Resident Evil<\/em> has always been goofy and ridiculous (cue the outfits<\/a>), but the Duke\u00a0presents serious tonal cringe, as well as a major lack of originality in the design department. A piece by indie writer Kaile Hultner<\/a> puts it all into pretty good perspective, explaining that it’s ugly, lazy, and in poor taste.<\/p>\n

2 <\/span>Do: Romance Options<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

Resident Evil<\/em>, regardless of its inclusion of some of the best female protagonists<\/a> in gaming, has never gone too deep into the possibility of romance with these characters. Regardless, players are now more hopeful than ever with the reveal of\u00a0RE8’s<\/em> main antagonists. In fact, it seems as though that’s all they’re talking about on social media, with a plethora of memes, fan art, and more suggestive threads populating the game’s hashtags and reply sections.<\/p>\n

Lady Dimitrescu and her three daughter-figures hit the world by storm after the game’s first screenshots released. While they may be the big evil leads of the game, maybe they’re not all that bad.<\/p>\n

1 <\/span>Don’t: Wide Chris?<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

Judging by fan theories and contextual speculation, the inclusion of series mainstay, Chris Redfield, is going to be interesting, to say the least. With his place in the new story yet to be revealed, many are arguing that his inclusion is hackneyed fan-service and will end in\u00a0yet another absurd plotline for the franchise’s already convoluted timeline.<\/p>\n

The biggest complaint, however, really has nothing to do with the context of the game. Instead, it can be summarized by the classic meme quote “why he look like that??” We’re sure it has something to do with all the boulder punching and action movie shenanigans from the previous games, but it’s still a little off-putting in terms of character design. Maybe\u00a0RE8<\/em> will reveal Chris’ newly restored ties to Umbrella, or maybe something more sinister is brewing inside this wide, wide man.<\/p>\n
