Media blackout begins! See you in January. Hope there's fixed camera angles, but honestly- what I've seen is more than intriguing enough. They get it. Gore, darkness, creepy crawlies, I'm sold. Old soundtrack implemented too? Day one.
This is total GOTY material from first impressions.
Oh PLEASE bring in a new era of this kind of game. The 90s were wild.

So in short the knife is actually useful now. Sounds cool actually.
Also didn't know dismemberment is a thing. The gore and physical damage was already so nuts, I didn't think of that.

I'm getting flashbacks to how I felt watching that RE4 E3 demo back in 2004
and then the series went in a different direction...
BUT NOW WE BACK
Definitely feels more police station and less museum this time while still having iconic areas and landmarks from the original.
twitch is lagging on me and I almost had a mini heart attack when some people spammed re3 confirmed on the chat..
i guess they were just talking about the gunpowder lol.
Relevant information from the stream.
- You can save without ink ribbons but higher difficulty options will let you use ink ribbons for limited saves like traditional old RE games.
- Besides the initial load or dying, there is no load screen in the game. Entirely seamless experience. No classic door animations.
- Bite marks are persistent on Leon's neck (maybe until the next time you use a herb ?)
- Limb destruction is in. You can shoot off parts off zombies/dead bodies.
- Adding new areas to explore before reaching the RPD. Even the RPD has new areas added to explore (a new third floor we've seen in shots)
- Classic items like film rolls and themed keys (Spade/club etc) spotted in stream.
- The shotgun blast is fucking SICK. Tore off half of a zombie's face.
- Wooden boards can be used to board up windows to stop zombies from coming in. Boards are limited.
- Capcom is still adjusting the difficulty levels for the game. Aim is to provide intense combat/gameplay feel against brutal/strong zombies.
- Stopping while aiming is recommend for 'easy aiming'. Walking + shooting is present but incurs drastic aiming penalties.
- Health indicator pops up during game play, not exclusive to visiting the item menu.
- Defence items can be retrieved from Zombie corpses.
- Claire seems to enter the RPD from the opposite side.

They meet before the police station in the original. They get split up in the tanker crash and take different paths to the police station.

That was less Q&A than I expected, and much more demo playing.
But it did show several new things, was a good demonstration.

I missed the shotgun blast :(
I started watching when Leon reached the Library, i thought he was gonna use the shotgun hanging from his back
Green herb, eh? The jokes write themselves to the point I feel this is hugely intentional.
Thanks for the write-up. I'm so goddamn excited for this game.

There will be an hour long thing with several hardcore RE fans in 2 hours and 45 minutes from now on the same Twitch account btw (there's also a Mega Man 11 thing between now and then if anyone interested in that).
The new things seen in that stream were cool. I'm making a gif off that first shotgun blast they did, no question.
