I always compere, Resident Evil games to the Original, we never had a clue what to expect, every door we opened, tensions would begin to rise, and its the same for every Original game, after it moves to the 2nd, 3rd, 4th etc, then we kind of know whats going to happen, and the edge has been taken of the tension.
What Capcom has done with, Resident Evil The Village, is put you back into that Original feel.
Yes some you can guess whats about to happen, but more of the, whats going to happen here as you don't know, keeps you on the edge, and what you think will happen, is not what happens, but when it does you know that feeling the tension is back.
Its a great game, and if you like horror, why haven't you got it.
