Analyzing The Cut Content of Resident Evil 7

I don't know why but im so impatient for the RE4 Remake i just want it to be released Either this year Q4 or Next year Q1. BTW Love your Content

[@mitri5389]

Photogrammetry has nothing to do with a games engine... that's just a ignorant statement, photogrammetry is only used as reference tool to help create high and low poly meshes... this is all done outside of anything to do with a game engine. unreal 5 has support for importing photo meshes into its sdk but it still leaves a lot to be desired and is basically used for rocks and such, hardly a useful tool when a 3d artist can create multiple procedural rock meshes and textures In a program like blender than it takes a photographer to dick around with a camera, converting raw into png and than arranging all the files in a program.

[@RapidCrafter]

@@mitri5389 You are partially correct, but photogrammetry allows developers to turn those realistic images into assets, which are then used through a video-game engine. Most of the assets in RE7 were scanned into the game. Photogrammetry plays a big part in making these assets look as realistic as possible :p

[@elizabethmoreno1073]

I personally think that the Eveline cut content would've brought another aspect to the horror depicted in the game. If you consider what she was created to do, and why she became the way she did, it would bring upon a more psychological type of horror to the game, kind of like Ethan/the player chasing Angie in Village on the Beneviento Household. Not necessarily scary of itself, but once you realise what's happening, it shakes you.

[@RapidCrafter]

I agree!

I think Eveline was the weakest part of RE7 by far, besides the ship itself of course. FEAR had done better with Alma in my opinion.

[@ryebananabread7843]

i can imagine that they cut the female molded because mold doesnt rlly have a gender and it kind of consumes the body not leaving much of anything behind

[@ismaelgingles9409]

If they did put a female mold variant in the game I feel like it would appear in the destroyed ship wear we have flashbacks of mia and when she is looking for Ethan she sees a different kind of mold creature a darker and thinner one. When she tries to shot it the bullets just go through it and every now and then you can hear this female mold trying to talk or say something but it comes out all wrong and sounds more like a howling noise instead talk about creepy 😰

[@XeresKyle]

*I can imagine the creature kept in the basement being grandpa. I know Evelyn turns out to be "grandma"--an awesome twist to the game not knowing they never had their grandmother/mother there, but tere would've been grandpa would had terminal cancer before being turned and the mold had transformed him drastically because of how the mutation affected cancer cells within the body. So grandpa would've been this forty foot grotesque beast with a gaping maw of a mouth, but the chin being bifurcated all the way down to his gut where the cancer was, and it was all gaping, with twisted bone of his ribs looking like giant teeth and the mold spilling out and his guts being almost sentient, whipping and lashing at you. And the bottom half of his body would've been just a pile of bodies that he's eaten stuck to him because of the outpouring of the black goo mold from his stomach maw. And the basement where he dwells is flooded and very dank, full of mold and dry rot wood and the ceiling above sagging and vines erupting through the walls from outside, the windows being caked in black mold, and barely any light getting in. Man, that could've had a lot of potential.*

I completely agree about the boat being the weakest part of the game. My issue I think was the enemies just being the same as they were before. Like in every other resident evil game I prefer certain sections over others but each act introduces a treasure trove of content. I think they could have saved some of these concepts like the creepy female moulded coming from the ceiling to keep up the tension even in the boat section. I also really liked the concept of like a beast they were feeding in the basement. I kind of got the impression there would be something horrifying when I saw that dissection room thing in the cage for the first time with the hanging bodies and stuff. Then, it just turned out to be a plain old boss battle with Jack (though I do love jack and the chainsaw duel)

[@somtamthai9429]

These female molded creatures and Mrs. Baker in spider form looking creepy as hell. I also like the concept of the main hall, the ship and that monster under the house. Resi4, 5, 2 Remake, 7 they all had amazing cut content that seemed even better than the actual game. The same when it comes to the music of some artists. In many cases the unreleased and cut content seems to be the best.

I want a disgustingly gorey, extremely dark and edgy, terrifying and mindbending, just purely horrific resident evil. I want one that needs to be censored in some places because it's too realistic and upsetting. I would love to just play something from this franchise that results in me doubling my therapy sessions bc it awakens some visceral fear in me, much like the original games did when I was honestly too young to play them. It makes me sad when they dial back the scares bc ppl can't take it/expect a baby game like RE4 👁👄👁 no check point after every loading screen? Too hard and scary.

Fun Fact : In test footage, originally Margret was going to be the seeker enemy that replaced the dog until they turned her into a side boss. She would patrol the manor and scream / point where you were, and Jack would give chase, making her a cowardly character. This was cut because they wanted to make her more aggressive and give less focus on Jack, and add more family enemies to the game. Source : /watch?v=jY-fof4iEt0 Another fact : Molded were ment to hear the player breathe. Ethan would have to hold his breath to stealth around molded before that was cut, due to playtesters developing Claustrophobia and getting too panicked during runs.

About the ship being the weakest section in the game, this isn’t exclusive to 7. Nearly all RE games have weaker final areas.

[@jafarankle]

I think the problem with the final act in 7 is that they didn’t really introduce anything new for those sections. Many RE game’s final areas introduced a new enemy type(s) and as a result a new challenge to keep the ending section at least a bit interesting, but in 7 it was just the same four basic enemy types you’ve already fought before.

[@blueflare3848]

It's understandable how much trouble they had figuring out what to put in and out of the game considering how poor 6 turned out aswell as the new pov, but I would have loved to see margarite be even scarier.

All this content comes in RE Village Deluxe Edition, on Ethan Winters tragedy.

[@matthewavery2934]

Wasn’t there a cut character that was dubbed the “Ghost Girl” who turned out to be Eveline, Mia , and Zoe separated. She was in the footage of the Gator Crew in an early release thing

[@Carlos-np7du]

Glad you made a vid of this. Re7 is awesome!

[@nna1u39]

Marguerite still scares me to this day even with the normal game design... always screaming and coming out in the middle of nowhere lol

[@Vraar]

with how much i absolutely adore re7, I still wish all of this could have been in the game. Would have made it even better. Part of me wishes I hadn't watched because my gosh it would have made the game so incredibly better. Just the art style of the characters and how extra dark and nightmareish everything looked...wow. I would pay retail price or more for an uncut version of the game with all of the scrapped stuff added/changed.

[@midwestweirdo]

While playing through the game it was hard not to fear some of the human bodies laid around How they looked taken over by the mold it seemed to be a great model for a mold zombie. I knew they wouldn't get up but still...

[@EggJump]

Imagine if resident evil 7 began with normal classic zombies and throughout the game they slowly start to turn into the molded to make the enemies harder on the player as the game goes on.

6:20 that photo of eveline was later featured in RE8

[@pudznerath6532]

This is another resident evil universe. The one where Leon when to Spencer's mansion in a large bomber coat, and Chris in Africa with the sleepless shirt. Also Elza exists.

[@harleyjackson3708]

So has anyone had the thought that the reason they went through the trouble of making those zombie models was because they've probably known before 7 came out that they were gonna do a 2 and 3 remake?

[@blueflare3848]

It's a good possibility. They started working on the RE2 remake in 2015, and the RE3 remake was in development for roughly 3 years, which means they started working on it sometime in 2017. It all adds up.

[@HAZZATHEBEAST]

I really hate this dial back of scary nonsense, ITS A HORROR GAME FFS! This is why the genre is really suffering nowadays.

[@Ghostonatoast]

I remember playing this whole game while i was sick one day; I was wearing a watch that tracks heart beat and since I was sick it was already pretty high so playing this game made my heart monitor beat at me... it didnt help and I almost passed out

[@fuzzydunlop7928]

Additionally, concept art doesn't necessarily = the "original vision" of the game. It's something of a jump to take a piece of concept art and say the design ethos was "any deviation from this image is straying from the original intent" when often it's the reverse, and the concept art is just as its name states - a potential concept that everyone knows will be altered during the design process. Concept art =/= cut content, basically.

[@sauceman2885]

The cut concept art always makes me wish for what could have been, I would love to hear the teams explanations for why these things didn’t make it in. Maybe it’s so interesting to me because we can only imagine what it would be like, and what we have we don’t have to imagine

[@eartharies24492]

You gotta love when a entire community for a "Horror genre game" has to say the game is too scary and to tone it down. It was literally made as a horror title to begin with and the only thing scary about the game now is the fact you gotta walk back and forth through a bunch of crap to beat the game.

[@comradefish9698]

I wish they went back to the as scary as possible.

[@piercemchugh4509]

These look great. The human spider looks like something out of Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark

[@AndrewCzaja]

Funny how people complained about RE7 being “too scary.” You complained how bad RE6 was and Capcom originally went all out for RE7. All of a sudden it’s “too scary.” Some people don’t know how to appreciate high quality content.

[@MyNameisRevenant]

Personally resident evil 7 was not scary enough, too bright in some locations, and lack of enemy variety.

[@Laz_IDK]

This just in "Horror game designed to be scary deemed too scary."

[@Lakrimoz]

Capcom should've taken the same approach as From Software when considering anyone calling the game "Too "....

[@prima5113]

The fact that people dialing horror game for "too scary" Make me think "What?"

[@CricketBonez]

I would LOVE to see in the future more animal mutations, such as pigs, horses, deer or even more exotic, such as seals, elephants or normally herbivorous animals turned nightmare fuel.

[@Eldergloom]

Imagine making your horror game less scary because people were scared of your horror game. Wild.
