Resident Evil 7: Biohazard (2017 Video Game)
3/10
Worst experience I ever had with an RE game
20 April 2023
I hate this game. The gameplay in this one is so poorly designed that it just constantly p***** me off to the point where I just Alt+F4 out of it. The movement of the characters is slow and clunky. The combat is atrociously awful. I hate the return of the inventory management.

Due to the terrible combat the boss fights also are extremely bad. And it's not even mechanically challenging boss fights. It's all about figuring out some stupid puzzles in these boss fights and dying over and over until you figure out the right solution. Even then many deaths just feel completely random when a boss suddenly pulls out an FU move to kill your character in one hit or as in one case sending small super fast bugs that are almost impossible to hit but are easily hitting your character and killing you quickly while you can't do anything about it (or at least it feels like it).

In addition if you fail a boss fight you restart at the point where you enter the room. It's not even saving at the start of the fight but several minutes before that so you can repeat the steps you've already done over and over again and watch the same unskippable cut scenes multiple times.

Lots of people claim RE7 is great but let me give you a warning. Check the Steam global achievements. Over 40% of all players have quit RE7 before they even make it past the first main section of the game and only 46,5% finished the game on the easiest difficulty. So if you want to buy it then at least do it in the bargain bin...
