I think "return to form" sums up this game nicely. After some more action-packed entries, RE7 gets back to basics with maybe the scariest game in the series. I think in the first playthrough especially, you never really feel safe on the Baker property. The first-person view especially makes everything feel a little more impactful, as if all the horrors are really happening to you! The game definitely has a more compelling first half, but the overall experience is still really solid.
