RE8 was supposed to be a truly next gen title, but 200 million PS4/XBO users tend to change a company's mind. Especially when getting a new console is like winning a lottery.

 

Isn't the PS5 the fastest selling console in its launch window or something? You're saying they expected the console to sell even more?

Oh I thought I saw you mention you wanted one but can’t find it. I swear you flip flop more than a fish out of water.

I put the odds that he buys the XSX for the game at at least 50%.

I'm saying they announced the game for Xbox Series X and PS5 in June of 2020, then announced that they'd be bringing it to XBO and PS4 in January 2021.

 

It's not a stretch of the imagination to think that they saw how botched the launches of the new consoles were and realized there were a ton of people that probably weren't going to have one by the time the game launched in May.

What changed in the company’s minds, then? You said they changed their minds. Was it supposed to be a truly next-gen title or not?

I edited my post, but you beat me to it. I think the system shortages totally changed their minds. You gotta think, even God of War, as amazing as it sold, only did like 10-15 percent of the total PS4's out there.

I doubt this because the systems are selling amazingly well, shortages or not.

If he could find it in stores, 100% he would have bought it by now. 
 

 

 

You're correct for the most part. I want to trade in my Nintendo Switch, PS4 Pro, and Xbox One X to basically pay nothing at gamestop. I don't want to do that now after thinking about it. I will this Fall for sure. Then buy the PS5 straight up. I'll be part of this new gen with both consoles by November.

"While Resident Evil Village is being developed specifically for next-generation consoles and PC, we're looking into delivering the experience on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One as well," a Capcom producer said via a translator. "We're looking into it but we can't make any promises, however we will do our best to bring a top-tier survival horror experience to current-generation consoles." -via TGS Presentation in September

 

While that doesn't state why they decided to do XBO/PS4 as well, it does state that it was originally intended to be a next-gen game.

Right, but why would the system shortage cause them to change their minds if the systems are selling at record speeds?

I think the consensus is that if you like 7 you'll enjoy this. The game feels like the step up that RE1 to RE2 felt like.

Very good news. I did enjoy 7 (played it all the way through on psvr) but got bored of the small environment. I hope this more diverse and a bigger game.

ahh my bad. Yeah the Maiden Demo was stupid. 

Agreed. Did nothing for me but show off that the framerate tanks when looking at a chandelier in a room that looks like Gothic Model Home in terms of overall 'stiffness'. Then the lame stalker enemy shows up and it tanks further and the demo is over. Cool shit, Capcom.

lol it was such a bad demo! It didn’t convince me to not get the game, it just convinced me it was a shitty demo and to ignore it as far as if I’ll like this or not.

 

The chandelier room was such a bad idea to show off in that state, if they would have just toned it down there it wouldn’t have been as noticeable and nobody would have cared, it just served as a warning for the frame rate.

Same here. I'm honestly confused as to what that demo was supposed to accomplish other than showing off that the framerate sucked in its current state. It's Resident Evil EIGHT, everyone knows you walk around spooky locations and pick stuff up by now. And yeah, I also just fully ignored it knowing the game will involve actually doing stuff.
