Resident Evil 7 took the Internet by storm and was hailed as a glorious return to the survival horror roots that made the franchise famous. Not only was the game fantastic, but Capcom announced that gamers would receive free DLC in the form of the Not A Hero campaign. To show how much the company wants to do right by its fans, Capcom released a downright classy video to announce the DLC will be delayed.

The apology video was no-frills and did not beat around the bush. Producer Masachika Kawata and director Koshi Nakanishi started the video by apologizing that the DLC will be delayed. They explained that they believe the DLC, while almost finished, would not meet the high expectations of gamers set by Resident Evil 7. According to Kawata and Nakanishi, the quality of Not A Hero is less than that of the base game, and the development team will need more time to match the experience set by Resident Evil 7’s campaign — something I do not believe can be done simply because that campaign was so good.

After Kawata and Nakanishi had their say, executive producer Jun Takeuchi started his own video segment. He mostly repeated what was already said, including the apology, but he also added a heartfelt thank you to everyone who enjoyed Resident Evil 7. Furthermore, Takeuchi stated that the dev team is also working on yet another piece of DLC alongside Not A Hero. Takeuchi promised that this new DLC will also be up to the standards gamers have set for Resident Evil 7.

This apology video gives me hope that Capcom can return to the days when it set the standards for survival horror. The Resident Evil 7 dev team could easily have continued work on Not A Hero as planned and not changed a thing. Resident Evil 7 fans would likely have enjoyed it, but Kawata, Nakanishi, and Takeuchi all agreed that they had to improve the DLC to make it even better than it already was. They did not need to, but they did. They also agreed to develop and release an extra, possibly unplanned, bit of DLC alongside Not A Hero. Is this unnamed DLC an apology for making fans wait so long? Perhaps, but if the dev team can deliver on its promises, then both DLC packs will be amazing. Given that Resident Evil 7 was a spectacular game, I have no doubt the devs will not only deliver on the promises but they will exceed them.

All you have to do to get my attention is talk about video games, technology, anime, and/or Dungeons & Dragons - also people in spandex fighting rubber suited monsters.

ReFantazio Takes a Different Approach to Romance, Setting Itself Apart from the Persona Games

Atlus’ highly anticipated RPG, Metaphor: ReFantazio, appears to incorporate familiar systems reminiscent of the developer’s acclaimed Persona series. The game features turn-based battles that heavily rely on exploiting enemy weaknesses. Additionally, players have the ability to summon warrior spirits during combat. However, the most significant aspect of this game, which will be discussed in this article, is the bonding system. Through this system, players can spend time with important characters and gain deeper insights into their personalities and stories.

In contrast to the Persona games, the bonding system ends at that point. Unfortunately, players will be unable to pursue romantic relationships with their beloved waifus, which may come as a disappointment to those who have developed strong feelings for Hulkenberg, the party’s charismatic red-haired elven knight.

According to Siliconera, the absence of romance came up during a recent question and answer session. Atlus emphasized the continued opportunity to develop meaningful relationships with your allies while also introducing additional narratives through substories. In addition, familiarizing yourself with the supporting characters will grant you access to new archetypes, which serve as the game’s character classes.

In the Persona games, romance is not obligatory; rather, it serves as a means to customize your playthrough. However, it is quite unexpected that Metaphor has chosen not to pursue such a venture, considering the significant amount of discussion it typically generates!

Were you anticipating any romantic elements in Metaphor? If you’re not satisfied with your pre-order, feel free to share your thoughts in the comments section below.

It appears that many

are eagerly anticipating the launch of the highly anticipated PS5 exclusive, Stellar Blade. Shift Up, the developer, has shared a lengthy video showcasing the “secrets” found in the physical box of the game for PS5. From what we can gather, these secrets include a reversible cover/dust jacket and a download code for cosmetic items.

We must clarify that while we do appreciate the variant cover, it may be more appealing than the game’s standard art. However, it is not something we would typically classify as a “secret.”. However, what’s interesting is that Shift Up has confirmed through the comments section that this will be the case in all regions. Additionally, the visually striking action RPG will remain uncensored worldwide.

It’s refreshing to witness a developer going the extra mile for physical collectors, and it’s evident that the developer is determined to leave a favorable mark in the console realm. Stellar Blade is set to make its highly anticipated debut this Friday, April 26th, exclusively on the PS5.
