Resident Evil 7. The last game I played was RE5 and I really didn’t enjoy it. It’s been years but I played the remake of RE2 when it came out and loved it. Picked up 7 and 8 during a recent steam sale. So far RE 7 is shaping up to be one of my favorites in the series.

Resident Evil is one series I’ve never been able to garner the gumption to get into. I played about 30 minutes of RE4 remake through GamePass and it’s just not for me, I believe. I’m not a horror fan anyway, but was hoping the gameplay would draw me in. Maybe I’m just missing something.

I’m sorry to hear that but I totally get it. Horror games aren’t for everyone. I haven’t played the RE 4 remake but it’s on my list! Gamepass is great for exactly how you experienced RE4. Unfortunately for me it’s made playing games a bit like picking out something to watch on Netflix. Just too many options.

Tell me about it. Choice paralysis can be a bitch! Throw in steam and emulators, and I’ve never been short of things to play. Sometimes, it’s just hard to determine what game fits the current vibe. I’ve found myself getting into narrative-heavy things lately and really enjoying them.
The thing about GamePass for me, is being able to try out things I would never have otherwise. The most recent for me was Clair Obscure: Expedition 33. That game was the most amazing entertainment experience I’ve had in gaming, maybe ever. I’m so glad I got to play it. Never would have had that opportunity without GP. If you like rpg’s/jrpg’s at all, I highly highly highly recommend it. It was the first jrpg I’ve ever played and it had me totally enthralled.

It drive me nuts sometimes. I used to spend about 20 minutes a night looking over my game library thinking about what kind of mood I’m in. Lately I have been trying to stick to one game at a time but it doesn’t always work out either.
GP is great for trying out games. It has already saved me from buying a few games I ended up being disappointed with. But I’ve also been really surprised by games I didn’t think I’d enjoy. I have heard a lot of good things about Expedition 33. I’ll give that one a go after I finish RE7!
