Like, I played all Resident Evil and I really don't understand why RE 7 and 8 are treated like this. They have the mechanics and the Resident Evil feeling, both of them are pretty scary (expect from some parts of RE 8). So if you think like this or might have and ideia of why people think like this please say it on the comments and I will try to change your mind

As a longtime fan, I found 7 a breath of fresh air. Even though it was first person it felt more like RE than 5 and 6 did with the puzzles, layout, and scares. I enjoy 5 and 6 for what they were but the over the top action was getting a bit much. Personally, I've found most people loved 7 as much as the older ones.

I'm guessing because you don't play as Chris, Jill, Leon or Claire. And that it's in First Person and not fixed cameras with no Zombies.

I've never understood this myself. The focus on a lower number of enemies, environmental story telling, item management, and puzzles made it almost feel like a reimagining of the original Resident Evil through the eyes of a relatively normal man.
I honestly think it's closer to the spirit of Resident Evil than RE5 and RE6 are. If only it had skippable cutscenes.

All the hate from Resident Evil 7/8 comes from the “OG Fans”.
ID: ht8vmdoI'm an OG and they don't know shit. If they would play it they would see how much like RE1-3 RE7 is and eat crow, but they never will because they're usually people who take that attitude with anything new. Gotta stay in their safe space of complaining about everything and never actually playing games.
ID: ht8wqxqI'm an RE "purist" and 7 is my second favorite to 1 Remake.
I've gotten a little ways into 8 and while I think it's a good game so far, it has a little too much of four in it for me at times. But I haven't played very far at all so I can't make a fair judgement.
ID: ht8y3mbYh I'd say the 'purist' type of fans find 7 more interesting, I respect that opinion although I don't share that view myself, and it makes sense as many people since 2012 would have wanted a game on the other end of the spectrum from RE6 Imo 7 went a bit too much focused on the horror aspects, as even though the first 4 games varied, they were all balanced enough between horror and action. 7 is even more on the horror side than RE1, so it's not a bad game, just less approachable by a general audience

I think 5 and 6 suck every other game is great or fine

Before i say this, i love RE7, it is an amazing game and one of the best in the series. But to me, really, if it had been called anything but "resident evil", i wouldn't have noticed it was an RE game. Sure, there was a few references to the original thrown in, a few notes here and there and then Chris who doesn't look like Chris and Umbrella. It could have been called " Southern Mold "or something and i wouldn't have noticed a difference. I don't know if this makes sense. But maybe also it felt disconnected to the original story. No OG characters to play outside a DLC. No zombos.
But after 6 i am sure this is what the series needed. The only thing i didn't like from this game was the first person. Ethan is sO SLOW and it felt clunky. -
I thought about this throughout my first playthrough of re7, I'm like ummmm... is this re7 or I got a different game? Different gameplay new characters. I understood afterwards that they were introducing new characters plot since they can't just milk the old content. I loved it, and looking forward to what the next thing is going to be.

I completely understand why people dont see RE7 and RE8 as Resident Evil. What I dont understand is how people can think RE7 and RE8 are Resident evil besides sharing the name and some loose references to RE lore. Its quite mind boggling.
As much as I dislike RE5 and RE6 I see them as more Resident Evil then RE7 or RE8.
I enjoyed RE7 and RE8. They are some of my favorite games. I originally see them as non RE related in their early story development and later rewritten to resemble RE. Very little but just enough.

The characters who started in there own resident even games aren’t in this one (accept for Chris for some reason). People want to see the stars back on a new adventure and wanna get to play on that new adventure. They also go by 2 names (Resident Evil 7 (RE7) and Biohazard 7).
-
Because they’re different. The same reason people hate 6.
-
I think 7 captures the spirit of the series. 8 is really weird
-
I really liked 7. I can see why people wouldn’t consider it a Resident Evil game but after 4,5 and 6 it was great to go back to its roots and creep around a manor solving puzzles. As much as I enjoyed 8 it just felt too much like RE4 which isn’t my thing.

Ye exactly, but I would consider RE8 more blended in with the series as it features Chris, and has the Mansion/Castle atmosphere that pretty much all mainline games except 7 have had
