Village once again frames the action uncomfortably close in first-person, but expands the area out well beyond the Baker family’s rather messy abode.
PEWDIEPIE LAYERS OF FEAR SERIES
It was a big move to shift the perspective from third to first-person in Resident Evil 7, but in the end, it revitalized a series that was, let’s be honest, getting a bit silly up to that point. Here’s six handgun bullets, a broken flashlight and a camera. Here are ten of the best titles at doing exactly that. Resident Evil 2 gets a bye on such a generic premise as ‘zombies take over a city’ for popularizing and defining the entire genre, but subsequent games have all had to work harder, looking under every part of our psyche for some new combination of place and situation we didn’t know we were scared of. There has to be something specific and unique about its sense of place and the events that unfold there, too. Managing the scant items around you and turning them into survival tools is a big part of the genre, from Resi’s famous herbs to the Macgyvered armory of Alien: Isolation. You’re also often totally under-prepared and ill-equipped. That means as scary as your favorite shooter might be, your ability to eviscerate enemies with a brief burst of LMB precludes it from this genre. They all make you feel intensely, uncomfortably vulnerable. We think the best survival horror games all have a few key things in common, though. Like any video game genre in 2022, survival horror’s definition is pretty fluid.
