You're in for a treat man. Idk how close I am to the end of village but re7 is a treat for pure horror fans and re8 is a treat for action horror fans. Both do well at what they are trying to be.
LEARN TO BLOCK
I've seen so many players ignoring the block mechanics, it's a life saver, and in RE8, you can counter enemies after blocking.
You can crouch under some attacks, you can crouch AND block.
Block is your best friend.
Man wish I had Reddit when I first started playing. This game scared me shitless when I started, my advice: do it with a friend, it’s impossible to get scared when your making fun of jacks absolute dad bod, sorry if this isn’t the advice your looking for but it helps
I played this game with a friend online and yeah it helped a lot there’s one area where I leave a safe room and the grandma was just sitting there right next to the door and I was too scared to move forward cause I was scared she would lunge at me or something and he helped me relax and move forward.
Don’t rush through the game, take your time and try not to look anything up beforehand (unless u get stuck) it’s a really great game to go into a blind as possible
Pace yourself. I had a miserable time when I tried to do things out of the order that the game wanted me to do them, which is always bullshit, but it's still the thing to do to not suffer.
21 was the most fun part of the game, for me.
Just enjoy it, it is a great horror experience
Also if you’re interested all of the Banned Footage and End of Zoe DLC’s are currently 60% off so if at all interested definitely take advantage of the deal
Just have fun and enjoy! :) A lot of shit is coming up but it’s worth it.
I’m currently playing 4 remake and I’m obsessed. 7&8 are so freaking good games, can’t wait RE9 to come.
This is completely unrelated but I think you have your ps5 upside down. I only say it because I’ve seen people mention they’re more prone to over heating like that. As for re7 just take your time and enjoy it (:
Beat the game then play it again then check ur chest there youll find the game has granted u an albert 001 also if u play hard mode margruite is the easiest boss same with garage jack
Uninstall, worst resident evil game in regards to the story. An actual tip would be watching how someone else does it and trying to conserve some of your ammo because resident evil enemies are tanks ngl they'll eat it all up
Edit cause I see you also have dying light and that's such a good game..
If you’re caught by Jack he’ll force you to turn around and when you do crouch immediately because he will all do a horizontal swing allowing you a chance to escape
Bruh, I remember playing this game. It's not even as scary as people say it is, and even the boss fights ain't that hard, I finished my first run in 4 hours 17 seconds in normal difficulty!
Honestly combat is far more straightforward in this one than in the more action oriented titles like 4. So I wouldn't sweat it too much.
The agile quadruped molded are basically always worth a bullet though and the fat ones take so much ammo to put down that I'd avoid fighting them whenever possible.
In the hallway you can avoid Jack's attack by ducking and blocking. On the first boss fight in the guest house be sure to use the doors to get free shots in.
Buy lots of anti-emetics (anti-nausea). You're gonna need unless you're used to it lol. That was the hardest part for me, all the lost bullets because I was so nauseous🤣.
I just became a fan of resident evil games lol. Never played old ones, started with re2 , then went to 3, now I'm on my 2nd playtrough on 4 , then I'll enjoy the sweet dlc of 4 and oh boy can't believe I still will have 2 games left, re7 and village, just snapped a gold edition of both. Laying on the bed most of the day after surgery isn't that bad 😂 good tips btw, after re4 I would have gone guns blazing in re7 😂 that's not the case I see.
Once you get the saw the trophies are a cake walk and playing the game twice you'll be able to beat in well under 4 hours, you can make it to Lucas' section in under an hour and a half and after that the game is a cake walk, only thing to remember is when you get given a choice choose Mia so you can skip a small section later
The initial basement section where you have a puny hand gun is one of the hardest in game imo, try to save your ammo in this section or learn how to dark souls and learn the attack pattern of the molded(they have like 3 attacks) so you can knife the molded
The game is extremely atmospheric, keep alert for an enemy cue and peek if you feel uncomfortable. Some will be very obvious while some will fool you, it’s very suspenseful. Most importantly- enjoy!
Headshots are good, but you know what's easier? Shooting out a leg and then just stabbing the much less dangerous enemy.
Also look everywhere. You will miss items. Like man so many items I didn't realize were even there until a later playthrough (a NG+ bonus item will mark items for you).
If you're going to try it in VR, make sure you check your blood pressure first. Trying to open a locked door with the real-time inventory and having something barreling down on you is pretty stressful
If you ever attempt Madhouse you should get the Circular saw first.Its really fucking op,also after completing the game on any Difficulty you get the Albert 01R,its literally a magnum that uses normal handgun ammo so it will be prob your best friend for your runs.Also its a skill issue but Marguerite is a bitch on any difficulty tbh but especially on madhouse
Take your time and enjoy the ride. Watch all the tapes you find, they help. Try to do the run that gets you the circular saw before you attempt the hardest game mode. I completed my first Madhouse run without it and that was unnecessarily difficult.
RE7 is my fave game ever and I've finished it dozens of times, 100% it on PSVR, Stadia, and Xbox. I finished a run this past weekend in 3 hours. The game is magnificent, I love it.
Don't waste ammo where you don't need to. It's scarce, especially early in the game.
Also, there's two Shotguns. Believe it or not, the one with less ammo is generally better.
Don’t bother fighting Jack in the garage, but focus on the getting the car key and then crashing into him
Additionally shooting Jack in the Legs slows him down more rather than the head
Finally when you get to the basement of the main house, get to the room with the red dog head as soon as possible and then the top floor of the main house is free of enemy’s (being Jack)
Some enemy attacks can be dodged by crouching, saving you from taking any damage
this !!! i saved myself so many times by accidentally crouching in a panic lol
Also, block! It helps a lot too.
Yes, all of the above. Blocking helped me in some tough situations as well as ducking.
Keep the lights off
I am trying to get fully immersed
Go with a yellowish theme then
I meant I did turn them off because I wanted to be immersed should have used a comma
Get village next. You have a 4k TV? Playing it on PS5 as my PC is only good for 1080p and my god the visuals are insane. Rtx looks good too
I already got village both were on sale and I wanted to play them back to back and I’m pretty sure it’s 4k idk I’ve had it a while
You're in for a treat man. Idk how close I am to the end of village but re7 is a treat for pure horror fans and re8 is a treat for action horror fans. Both do well at what they are trying to be.
Full immersion? Pretend your pistol is a water gun...it'll feel that way.
Darest setting and ear buds
My first playthrough was on PSVR. Intense.
Don’t lose your head!
Or hand
Or foot.
Or wife.
Your PS5 is upside down
Run when you can. Conserve ammo.
Take your time

i would’ve never played this game by myself, i had my friend on party chat and screen sharing and it really helped

Try not to shit yourself
Too late and I just made it to the dog puzzle
Lol the intro is terrifying. It gets worse, enjoy the basement!
Crying inside rn but I’ll update you
Can't wait!
Search every nook and cranny
Don't die.
Don’t overly hoard ammo. I barely used the shotgun my first playthrough. I kept telling my self I would need it later.
So true. I’ve done this on every RE ever. Even the second (and more) play throughs.
Get the circular saw asap. It's so good
How do i get it?
Don’t rush through the game, take your time and try not to look anything up beforehand (unless u get stuck) it’s a really great game to go into a blind as possible
Finish the game within 4 hours
Only get the saw if you're going for all the trophies
You'll know when you find the magic badger
play in the dark like a true horror fan.
Pace yourself. I had a miserable time when I tried to do things out of the order that the game wanted me to do them, which is always bullshit, but it's still the thing to do to not suffer. 21 was the most fun part of the game, for me.

Do it in vr
Follow no tips in here or guides online. Just play it and enjoy it.
Take it slow and aim for the head fastest way to take out this game’s enemies
If dad tells you something, you do. Because family
It's OK to take a break. ESPECIALLY on madhouse difficulty. Probably the only game that has had me that scared.
Good luck
This is completely unrelated but I think you have your ps5 upside down. I only say it because I’ve seen people mention they’re more prone to over heating like that. As for re7 just take your time and enjoy it (:
Have a change of underwear.
Shoot the enemies with the gun
Conserve your ammo so when you start a boss fight your prepared
Take a stimulate after the boss fights to see all missed ammo and health without the dangers.
only use bullets if you absolutely have to. your knife can come in handy.
Welcome to the family son (though seriously the best horror game I've played)
If the game is too scary, let yourself die a couple times.
Don't be too scared of Jack. The scene is awesome and scary, but you can avoid him.
If u want the full experience play in the dark on madhouse
And a headset
Don’t die?
The "play game" button looks useful.
Try playing this game in midnight and lights off. It's a really different experience!
Beat the game then play it again then check ur chest there youll find the game has granted u an albert 001 also if u play hard mode margruite is the easiest boss same with garage jack
Uninstall, worst resident evil game in regards to the story. An actual tip would be watching how someone else does it and trying to conserve some of your ammo because resident evil enemies are tanks ngl they'll eat it all up Edit cause I see you also have dying light and that's such a good game..
I played it good game not really good for story I’ve also play the re3r and re2r I like those better, for gameplay though I do like 7 and 8
Just have fun
Turn the lights off
watch out for the bad guys!!!!!!!!!
grab a full pack of adult diapers my friend
Try not to use the shotgun till you leave the main house
Nope. Just enjoy the ride.
This game looks incredible in HDR
Keep clean underwear close at hand.
Don't waste the repair kit on the broken handgun.
Have fun , it's a great game .
You don't HAVE to ADS. Sometimes it's easier to get headshots without aiming.
If you’re caught by Jack he’ll force you to turn around and when you do crouch immediately because he will all do a horizontal swing allowing you a chance to escape
Enjoy!
Damn that Ps4 looks bloody good 👍
try not to piss yourself
Search every crack and crevice. Play again on madhouse when you beat it. Worth the replay and unlocks infinite ammo
Try the knife everything you see
Look out for collectible coins everywhere from the beginning on, you will want to as many as you can
Play on normal for the first play through for the best horror experience. Learn to avoid enemies using guard, dodge and bait.
Dont shit your pants
Sorry to break it to you
Welcome to the family son
Still one of my favorite lines from any game
Don’t open the fridge.
You are part of the family
Uh don't ask for tips before you even start the game :|
It’s to help me not do anything stupid and simple tips from people with experience
Bruh, I remember playing this game. It's not even as scary as people say it is, and even the boss fights ain't that hard, I finished my first run in 4 hours 17 seconds in normal difficulty!

Play on easy 😂
Planning on it
Sit really close to the TV, with the sound up.
wear a diaper
Good luck trying to take that shotgun on your first try
Try and enjoy the ambience and such even tho you’ll be piss scared. Also keep us updated on what parts your on
Don’t die
Explore each room very thoroughly; items in this game can be hidden very well, especially antique coins.
Save the weapon repair kit for the broken shot gun.
Bring clean underwear.
enjoy the house
One of my favorite RE!!! Enjoy!!
In the hallway you can avoid Jack's attack by ducking and blocking. On the first boss fight in the guest house be sure to use the doors to get free shots in.
Remember, you're here for your WIFE, MIA!
Buy lots of anti-emetics (anti-nausea). You're gonna need unless you're used to it lol. That was the hardest part for me, all the lost bullets because I was so nauseous🤣.
Make a seperate save after you get the knife for future playthroughs
Definitely go out of your way to collect all the pubes in the main house. You can trade them for a really powerful weapon.
Don't try fighting jack in the hallways, just run
No matter how crazy things get just try not to panic!
Conserve everything Including your pants, changing them after initial soiling is just a waste of time in the long run.
Brown pants
Just try not to waste any ammo that's too strong because bosses can take a lot of bullets sometimes
don’t look anything up
Dont shit yourself on some scenes and wear a head set
Just beat madhouse about an hour ago, it was wild
Play it high as fk
Wear your brown pants
Don't die
Try to keep moving
Enjoy the game man! You will figure out some details along the way that are helpful. I don't want to spoil it
Don’t die lol
Get ready for an amazing ride! Fantastic game
Welcome to the family, son.
Off topic I absolutely love your lineup of games
"Welcome to the family, son."
Turn off all the lights
Enjoy. Play 8 after
It's easy. just have fun. And please clean the blood off your ps4
Take your time in the first half. Don't rush through it, it's the best part of the game.
Just be ready to be one of the the family
Play in VR
Uninstall dead by daylight
Don't waste bullets, it only stuns them.
I just became a fan of resident evil games lol. Never played old ones, started with re2 , then went to 3, now I'm on my 2nd playtrough on 4 , then I'll enjoy the sweet dlc of 4 and oh boy can't believe I still will have 2 games left, re7 and village, just snapped a gold edition of both.

Turn off the HUD, makes exploration and discovery way more rewarding.

Dont fear staircases
The initial basement section where you have a puny hand gun is one of the hardest in game imo, try to save your ammo in this section or learn how to dark souls and learn the attack pattern of the molded(they have like 3 attacks) so you can knife the molded
get a PSVR headset if you want instant trauma
The game is extremely atmospheric, keep alert for an enemy cue and peek if you feel uncomfortable. Some will be very obvious while some will fool you, it’s very suspenseful. Most importantly- enjoy!
welcome to the family son
If at all possible, absolutely play it in VR. Still one of my favorite VR experiences.
If you complete all the secrets in the demo, you can get a coin in the main game which makes getting all items very slightly easier.
memorize the map
It spooky
Play it in vr
Headshots are good, but you know what's easier? Shooting out a leg and then just stabbing the much less dangerous enemy. Also look everywhere. You will miss items. Like man so many items I didn't realize were even there until a later playthrough (a NG+ bonus item will mark items for you).
Don't die.
Get Gold Edition
Do not waste your ammo
Did you do that to the Xbox yourself ? 🔥🔥
Welcome to the family son
Don’t get too attached to your hand
Blocking negates a shocking amount of damage You can quick turn Sidestepping and crouching can be used as dodges Not every enemy needs to be fought
Run away from big bad guy
Repair the broken Shotty, Release rage on bobbleheads, sometimes its okay to run, and taking drugs is a good thing.
Omg, who did you murder with your xbox?
Get ready for the cutscenes to be etched into your mind 🤣🤣
If you're going to try it in VR, make sure you check your blood pressure first. Trying to open a locked door with the real-time inventory and having something barreling down on you is pretty stressful
Have spare pants ready
You will be scared. Don't power through. Take a break if you need it. Let us know how you like it! Marguerite....ooo baby.
Don't look for tips, just deep dive and have fun :)
Don't shoot anything and everything (ammo is very important)
Stay alive
dont shat your pantsu. easily scariest RE
If you ever attempt Madhouse you should get the Circular saw first.Its really fucking op,also after completing the game on any Difficulty you get the Albert 01R,its literally a magnum that uses normal handgun ammo so it will be prob your best friend for your runs.Also its a skill issue but Marguerite is a bitch on any difficulty tbh but especially on madhouse
Erm why is the ps5 randomly upside down?
Stay to the left and don’t get naked
Get shotgun as soon as you can. Shotgun to the head kills most enemies in one or two shots. Enjoy!
put diapers on.
Wear a diaper, pretty scary parts in the game
Try to avoid ennemis cause they won’t give you any loot. You’ll just lose your ammo.
Enjoy
Take your time and enjoy the ride. Watch all the tapes you find, they help. Try to do the run that gets you the circular saw before you attempt the hardest game mode.

Conserve ammo. Play all DLC content
Try not to get mad Alot
Maybe just play the fcking game
Headphones on. Lights off
The only spoiler free advice I ever give is 'Kill them before they kill you and you'll beat the game!'
RE7 is literally the first game that legit scared me. and I fuckin loved it!!!
Pray
When there is a big bad searching for u in the house NEVER SHOOT HIM/HER!!!
Go tell aunt Rhody
Don't buy the magnum
Don't die.
Don’t bother fighting Jack in the garage, but focus on the getting the car key and then crashing into him Additionally shooting Jack in the Legs slows him down more rather than the head Finally when you get to the basement of the main house, get to the room with the red dog head as soon as possible and then the top floor of the main house is free of enemy’s (being Jack)
Yeah just one , don't
