Best: Changing Things Up (Again!): Resident Evil 7 once again pulled and completely changed up the franchise. This time, Capcom toned down the action and camp and cranked up the horror. Not only that, but Resident Evil 7 ditched the third-person camera of RE4 and went first person, making the game scarier and more intense.

It was a gamble, but one that paid off as RE7 became one of the highest-rated games in the series. Heck, folks even loved RE7’s short but iconic demo and obsessed over it for months

Worst: Lack Of Enemies:

RE7 is a damn near perfect game, but if I had to nail it on something I’d have to point to the lack of enemy diversity. You mostly fight the same mold-infected monsters over and over. While I was happy to see the franchise ditch the over-used creatures of past games, like Lickers or zombies, I wish it had replaced them with a larger variety of new nasties to kill or avoid.
