Resident Evil 7: 10 Biggest Fan Demands Capcom Must Include

Everything Capcom needs to bring the best zombie-killing franchise of all time back to form.

As Capcom prepares to release Resident Evil Revelations 2 and another HD remake of the original game, fans are still tuned into what they may have in store for the seventh numbered entry in the series. It's safe to say that a few of those fans have been hoping to see the series get a change in its bizarre focus on action, forsaking the survival horror aspects that made the franchise a success in the first place. In the last several games in the series, we've seen a slow eradication of the survival and the horror, replacing it with generic action. Resident Evil 7 should be all about going back to form for Capcom, returning to those roots of survival horror to create chilling gameplay experiences that are perfectly juxtaposed with that lovely B-movie feel. The series has become lost within itself, losing the focus that made the first two games in the franchise so memorable. Even the weakest entry in the original PlayStation trilogy, Resident Evil 3: Nemesis, wasn't too far off the track that Resident Evil 4 put it on. Despite RE4 being a very good game, it was really the beginning of Capcom's push towards wall-to-wall action that has derailed the franchise. So take a chomp out of that next button like a good zombie, and we'll look at 10 fan demands that Capcom needs for Resident Evil 7 to be truly back to form.
