I thought they said the dlc expansion was going to be free, since a 60$ game was so short

it sure sounded like that was the takeaway from the Capcom was...

"
Capcom has confirmed that the new Resident Evil Village DLC will be free. Capcom's executive officer, Yoichi Egawa, said in a report:

"We will drive our customer management to understand the playing trends and preferences of users while also building a business model for online operations. Taking into account the situation of our free additional DLC for titles such as Monster Hunter Rise and Resident Evil Village."
"

https://www.dexerto.com/gaming/re...s-1658340/


But... sure seems like he was talking about the accessibility nonsense update being free Wink

"
The new accessibility options that will be added include highly requested subtitle changes, which will allow players to adjust the size and color, as well as toggle the background on and off. The names of characters will also be available to display in story mode to indict who is speaking, and closed captions will be introduced. A permanent reticle option is getting added too.
"

They didn't specify what DLC content will be free. I imagine it would be smaller DLC add-ons that would be free not major expansions like this. Article [thenerdstash.com]

Damn, Cyberpunk/Battlefield ruined my impulse pre-order buying.

Anyone have a hard time trying to beat it on higher difficulty on console?
Headshots were impossible with controllers.

I play with an XB1 controller on PC and didn't have any issues, in my experience controller is much harder to use on PC being there's zero aim assist.
Hate to be that guy… but sounds like more practice is needed 😉

Side note…
I did do a quick search, sounds like the toggle-able aim assist is pretty absurd on console and will literally lock onto the torso/mid section. Meaning your fighting the aim assist for headshots. People suggest turning it off. I know on games like Halo the aim assist always screws me over, like when a different enemy crosses my line of fire… it'll start following him and I need to compensate. Annoying to say the least 😉

Not worth it except for the third person DLC. Resident Evil 7 had DLC that was 1 hour and a half long or shorter depending on how you played it, can't imagine this one is any longer than an hour and a half after seeing them reuse locations as well as assets that were in the main campaign.

I play PC with an Xbox Series X controller. No issues here. Beat it on Village of Shadows after 50 tries though....lol

Except it wasn't that short. It was a decent length for this genre.

There was no way they were going to make a major DLC story free. They never said it would be free, either. I believe everyone is getting the 3rd person view for free. Also, "so short?" Nearly every Resident Evil has been short. Several of them even gave you unlocks if you beat them in under 4 hours. This was plenty long enough.

Exactly. I have no idea what that person is talking about. It was longer than other Resident Evils. It was just as long as it needed to be. The pacing was great, because they didn't try to drag it out, but none of it felt rushed, either.

I beat it on PS4 and again on PS5, and got headshots left and right. No issues whatsoever.

The first couple games, there were 2 or more characters and the path and difficulty changed by character. You got a different piece of the story. Definitely more content.

Most of it was just copy and paste with maybe an hour of at most of different content between them. Not to mention you could easily clear those games in under 4 hours.

I played through the whole campaign in VR (free Mod...thanks Praydog) and it was incredible. It's a wonderful game, more action-oriented than RE7, but still some scares and brilliant enemy design. I will throw my money at this DLC, especially if I can play it in VR.
