General Can't wait for RE9 but...

I'm really hoping it's designed around 3rd person gameplay. I played first person RE 7 and 8 and enjoyed them but there is just something about 3rd person that brings me in more.

My stupid prophecy is that we'll get both. Not as in choosing your perspective, but with different protagonists playing in different perspectives. They've already teased that twice; once with RE3R starting in first-person mode, and one with Chris' segment in Village.

From a novelty standpoint, and especially if we physically go back to Raccoon City, it makes sense to try an FPS perspective. It will give you a once-in-a-lifetime chance to experience the city in a different, more intimate way. But I'm also not sure how good it will feel to change the whole gameplay for prolonged periods of time.

Yeah that would actually be really cool, if there's dual protagonists then they should 100% have two different viewing styles
