What has brought me back time and time again with each title has always been the gameplay, and with Village, it's no different.
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.

And the weapons you'll be using to fight them are equally fun to use as well, with each having attachments and various categories to upgrade.
Graphics

The graphics still look impressive for a 2021 game (with some exceptions, for example the sniper scope, which looks like it came straight out of a 2011 free-to-play game).
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
23 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Unlike other Resident Evil games, Village opted for a more ambient-focused soundtrack for the sake of immersion.
Characters
Players who bring up Characters mostly praise it.

The fidelity of display is a real punch up from RE7 and the character design is stunning, Mia has thankfully lost her spaghetti hair!
