RE7 is the scariest game I have played in the series to date. The first person perspective really adds to the tensions as you slowly walk around this horror filled house. The encounters with the bakers can be genuinely scary something I hadn't felt in a RE game prior. The game plays like the classic RE trilogy just in the first person. The slower pace of the game really captures that old school feel while leaving the tank controls in the past where they belong. The game has some fantastically designed areas that are top tier RE, but a long flashback section and the games final area being to focused on combat led to the game ending on a low. The games extra content and DLC also adds value and uses existing assets in cool ways and gives you extra context for the story for those that want it.
Overall RE7 is one of the finest entries in the series that I look forward to playing again in the near future
