director Resident Evil Requiem It has been said that in diet, Western players are more likely to choose first-person choices of games to try (Doom) and other diets for PC first-person shooters.
Meanwhile, director Akifumi Nakanishi told Denfaminicogamerin the translation interview Automatic.
While Requiem won't launch until next year, both the German Gamescom and Tokyo Game Show have publicly used the demo version over the past few months. After attending the show and watching fans try the game themselves, Zhong Ni said he found most of the differences in choosing the game at each position and suggested that it was due to how the audience played other games as they grew up.
“I think this difference is significant,” Nakanish said, describing the popularity of Western shooters, rather than Japanese host RPGs. However, he continued, things are changing now, citing the popularity of Minecraft and Apex Legends among young Japanese gamers this year.
After the Resident Evil series originated in the third person, it turned to the first-person gameplay of Resident Evil 7. But in recent years, we have also seen various reissues of previous third-person classics, such as the famous Resident Evil 4 Remake in 2023. Requiem will be the first title to have complete control over your favorite point of view.
After I played Resident Evil's Requiem demo myself on Gamescom, it certainly has something to say in its first person perspective, which is considered the default value for the demo. In the first person, it's hard to tell how close the game's disturbing new monsters might be, exacerbating the horror element. That said, this view does provide you with a narrower vision of finding hidden objects and clues, which sometimes proves to be somewhat frustrating. In fact, it seems like most players may try both.
Nakanishi told IGN in a Tokyo game show that the public demonstration of Resident Evil Requiem is important, such as Capcom's development team now makes a lot of games in the series and they can't tell what's really scary. And, back to Gamescom, I talked to Nakanishi about a series of topics – The game's super-large monsters, Lisa Trevor and Raccoon City! – Avoid elephants in the room: Leon S. Kennedy continues to be absent.
