10 Video Game Sequels That Fixed Specific Fan Complaints
10. Resident Evil 7: Biohazard: Survival Horror Actually Became A Thing Again
With the original trilogy, the Resident Evil franchise firmly established a successful survival horror formula. The clunky controls, the inventory-wrangling, the static camera angles, the Jill sandwiches..honestly it was perfect.
Then along came Resi 4 which showed us what true perfection actually was. This ushered in a more action B movie focus that Resi 3 had toyed with and delivered on the premise in full.
While fans rightly praise Reisdent evil 4 for it’s brilliant take on action spectacle and gore, when it came to Resi 5 and 6, the enthusiasm was lessened each time because it seemed that Capcom was forgoing it’s survival horror roots in order to become a cheesy action movie.
So what did they do after Resi 6 got slated? Well the took it back to the drawing board with 2017’s Resident Evil 7: Biohazard. While combat is still a heavy focus, ammo is tough to come by and every enemy is a threat, plus the move to first person only heightened the horror of being grabbed by the Baker family...or something much much worse.
