What monitor have you gone for out of interest?Sounds spine tingling
Waiting until my new monitor arrives before I invest more time in it(my IPS was really cheesing my off with how it handles the 'not blacks').
Well worth trying to get past it and playing till the end.
It took me a good few attempts to do that section in fairness

- but a heavily discounted b-stock model!! Hopefully it turns up in good condition 
edit - seriously though that IPS really isn’t good for anything dark and dingey.

Why isn’t the IPS any good? It just isn’t good for dark games. The corners of the screen in dark screens constantly look like they have a hazy yellow light glow on them (i.e. IPS glow). This is a known problem with IPS monitors.
It’s not backlight bleed as the glow moves when you move your head. It’s mostly invisible when viewed form straight on. But in any case the blacks are never a deep black.
This video shows the issue:
Great for desktop use or bright games... not so good for anything with dark colours.
I have tried two horror games with it and find it very annoying and distracting.
edit - in comparison, VA panels are much better with dark colours and have no IPS glow. BUT they can suffer with some ghosting due to the slow panel response times, so whilst a FALD VA display is probably as optimum as you can get for now, there currently isn’t a perfect solution for gaming from a conventional sized desk unfortunately. You can of course game on an OLED TV but that’s really not very practical for most desk sizes and typical office use.

I'm playing through RE7 for the first time at the moment, just got to the ship. It really is a brilliant game, really well done. Only problem is now when I walk around my house at night and I hear a creak or something I think of the game 
I wont buy Village on release, too many games to play, I'll wait for it to hit GamePass

Yeah, I've plenty of games to play just now so happy to wait for a price drop. In fact I still haven't finished Resident Evil 7 yet either now you mention it! Must get back onto that
I believe it's mostly single player anyway so I'd expect if you wait a month or two there'll be loads of second hand copies avaialble for £20-30.
Actually just notieced it does have mutliplayer included but the mode looks a bit unusual and more like the RE2/3 remakes?

My two major criticisms of RE7 in hindsight are as follows:
@Relentless81 I would consider that game location a spoiler personally (took me by a much welcome surprise) so might want to add a spoiler tag
Plot wise, how some aspects of it got hived-off into DLC. This confused me when I played through it as the fate of a character was left open - the ‘son’, whatever his name was.
Also, the common complaints of low enemy variety (the more monsters the better IMO) and the game becoming a little too shoot and run in the very final stages.
I did like the boat section, took me by complete surprised.

This guy has been right about a lot of Village details, so this could well be true.

Just that there's rumoured to be an unlockable hardcore mode with random enemy and item placement. One for the masochists.
I quite like the sound of dynamic enemies/loot, shame it can't be like that on more regular game playthroughs.

Just a reminder that there's a new showcase on tonight at 11. I probably won't watch it myself, as I already know I'm getting the game and would like to go in knowing as little as possible.
