You are in trouble in the world of Resident Evil 7? Don't worry, follow these five practical tips and Capcom's great theater of horrors will become a walk of health.
1. Use the parade properly
We realized seeing some novice players, both live and on youtube, that the parade is often misused or even not used. Especially if you are playing hard mode the L1 button should be your best ally. By parrying the blows of the enemies you will suffer very little damage and often you will also have the possibility to counterattack. And be careful: once you have made a parade you will be immediately operational and ready to shoot despite the animation of Ethan looking at his arm might suggest otherwise. So parry and run!
2. Fighting is not always the right choice
Although the title is called “Resident Evil”, escape is often the best solution. The game offers you several weapons with which to mangling enemies, but the latter are very predictable and this allows you to save ammunition by continuing without bloodshed.
3. Study each boss fight well
Resident Evil 7 has many boss fights over the course of the adventure. Most of them always have an alternative way of being dealt with. Keep your eyes sharp and use your wits as well as gunpowder.
4. Use ancient coins wisely
The ancient coins are used to unlock power ups inside some cages scattered around the game world. The problem is that each cage will require 3 to 8 coins and in the game you can only find 18. It is up to you to decide on what to invest, but give a weight to each choice and thanks to our guide you can easily find them all.
And above all: the key of the scorpion is not fundamental.
5. Don't use too much logic when chasing
What do we mean? Without fossilizing why, we'll just tell you that enemies may appear in different places than you would expect. Did you run away from the ax-wielding father upstairs? It could easily appear in the bathroom of the lower one. Be careful.
