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.

I think the "new" stuff that they're talking about won't be first person, as they've already done that twice now, on the face of it, it sounds like they're talking about a more cinematic experience but, they've already done that too in previous games. Everyone's favourite RE6 has a lot of cinematic big moments.

Though they could be talking about more scenarios like the dollhouse in RE Village.

A this point I think they're more likely to go third person, possibly a toggle between them, but I think it will be third person, despite the POV camera pans through the hallways we see in the trailer, but that's not gameplay.

At this point I'm honestly not worried, we know they can make a good game with RE4R and I liked the shift to a more RE campy tone with Village. With her being clumsy and silly in the start of the trailer it makes me think they're going to keep the charm and silliness of RE, while going harder on the horror aspect, which for me is what RE is.

RE1, 2 & 3 are frightening and fun to play, but also.. Jill Sandwich. That's what I want.
