Biohazard 7 @TGS2016


Let me just say this game freaks me out.

Hi! I first played Resident Evil with Zero on the GameCube. I didn't get any sleep (I was ...10? about that). My tall, skinny brother pretending to be a zombie really racked my nerves.
Anyway at TGS2016 the devs have showed some NEW gameplay.

I like what they did with the name. The Japanese version is "BIOHAZARD resident evil" and the US ver, "RESIDENT EVIL biohazard." It's like the Japanese title is acknowledging the often strange US title and the US title is recalling its roots.

Scarily enough this game is available in PSVR.. Why!? Here are a few visuals.


I caught this image by accident. Go figure




Concepts
It's Biohazard's 20th Anniversary. By this time the graphics look amazing. The game's turned more into a Survival Horror than ever before (sorta?) with the team wanting to put out a "Superior Horror Experience."
In Biohazard 7, 7 concepts are a major part it seems. These are:
1. Escape
2. Immersion
3. Pursuit
4. Door
5. Exploration
6. Combat
7. Item Management

Escape has been shown to be a fundamental part of the series in general, but is heavily emphasized in 7.
Immersion is brought about by suspense in the game's atmosphere, along with VR.. *shudder*
Pursuit, shown in the "Lantern" demo as you are trying to flee this crazy and probably murderous woman, highlights the pressures of the survival horror genre.
Doors are essential. I can imagine rushing for the nearest one to just hide!
Exploration, of course shows it self. there are a puzzles to be solved (has anyone found a use for the finger in Beginning Hour?)
Combat is a MUST in Biohazard. That's why showed us the shotgun!
It's survival. You can't expect to waste items and survive. That's why this is a key concept for the experience of actually being in proper danger. Item management is important.

Demo: Lantern
"You can Only Escape"

Guess who they got to play for us? Keyakizaka46's Sugai Yuuka! Honestly, I haven't followed Keyakizaka46 since they debuted, but I sure think I will now. She's really cute! She also shares a birthday with my AKB48 oshimen, Abe Maria! 


She was absolutely petrified, and I can't blame her. I was a bit jumpy just watching her play. Despite that, she even gave an appeal! Idol indeed.
In Lantern, the objective is to escape. In fact, a lot of the final game may turn out like this kind of survival horror, of course keeping to Biohazard standards (yes, I'm talking about the shotgun).
This post will now consist of Sugai Yuuka cutely playing Biohazard 7: Lantern

Thanks for the hard work Yuuka!

I came for Biohazard, I stayed longer for Sugai Yuuka. She did a great job.
Biohazard 7 - Resident Evil comes out Jan. 26th, 2017. It's also 4K HDR ready




Also, Beginning Hour is still a free download for ALL PS4 users. You can try it if you want (I'm not even asking you to .-. ). I hear there'll also be an update for the teaser demo.



Well, that's that then! No free stuff this time. ( don't have any atm).
You can watch Yuuka play here

Take us away Yuuka



Bye!

Spotlight: Character Design - Tetsuya Nomura

  After going through the internet in recent weeks and getting stressed over some details of Final Fantasy XV and it's reception, I set out to write a Defense of Nomura post. TWICE. However, I wasn't exactly sure what I wanted to say that hasn't already been said by others, nor how to say it without being the ultimate fanboy. Furthermore, I started to question myself. As an aspiring character designer, why do I even like the art of Tetsuya Nomura? What about it makes it so, "interesting." In truth, I'm just going to wing it while listening to Jpop. Hello. If you've been to this blog before, I take it you've seen my last post was Christmas 2016. Truth is, my computer died and the replacement is also nonoperational until I get a replacement HDD. So, I've busted out my beloved HP Chromebook 14 and instead of watching anime or YouTube videos, I've decided to do something a bit more constructive. Tetsuya Nomura is well known as the creat

TERA Character: Female Castanic

At some point I returned to make a gunner again. Castanics are really the better choice stat wise as the get all the fancy crits (somewhat). Here's a character I made for that at the time.   More pictures below My entire obsession with Castanics began with one image of a Castanic Lancer with the princess cut hairstyle. And of course, I had my Castanic Lancer. Lancers are my favorite strangely. Okay, so how to make her. You'll have to carefully follow the slider numbers showed here to get her done. That's it! I hope you like this face. If you used it, drop me a screenshot on Twitter @beaniedude114. Or give a comment!
