I played 1-4 back in the day, but my memory of the details is pretty fuzzy. Something something Umbrella releases a new virus like iPhones every few years, something something, somehow Wesker returned.
Anyway, I hear 7 is kind of a soft reboot? Is that a good one to get back into the series with, and not have to know 12 games of plot?
And if 7 is good, does 8/Village follow directly from that without needing too much prior game knowledge?
The new ones are vastly different from the first 4. Closer to 4, at most, but are entirely different from everything done previously aside frim the action elements. The stories are not, necessarily, linked either. Different characters, no Umbrella Corp, does not even have zombies.
Jumping into at least 7 onward will be totally unfamiliar even if you just finished playing the OGs. But they are really good.
That sounds great. I really liked 4, and unfamiliar is fine as long as it’s not unfamiliar because I’m supposed to have played half a dozen other games first.
