Another great RE entry and possibly one of my favorites in the series. 8 has a great setting that makes for some really satisfying exploration. I would've liked if the village map was a bit more clear about which paths are actually blocked off or not though. The combat feels good, particularly with the shotgun, and thankfully there's more enemies than just mold creatures now. There's also plenty of fun, climactic and interesting boss fights. The four lords having their own separate areas all with unique vibes adds a solid sense of variety to the story though the doll house and fish sections do feel underdeveloped compared to Castle Demetriscu and Heisenberg's factory. Resource and inventory management are fun as always, the RE4-inspired merchant is a nice touch, and equipment upgrading feels rewarding. I like the story, particularly Ethan becoming a chad family man and actually getting a story reason for his autistic reception to all the injuries he gets and his bizarre healing abilities. The new characters were all pretty interesting, though it is a shame all the villagers get wiped out right away. It would've been nice if they got whittled down over the course of the story or stuck around and offered some services like the Duke's cooking. Getting to play as Chris was neat too. My biggest issue with the game was the rampant technical issues with the PC port since I was having freezes, messed up textures and crashing all the time for seemingly no reason. Overall a great time.
