This game is a Masterpiece so far but I just can’t play it during the day.
Also, the fan hilarity has already started.

Man people are tapping out of the game not 10 minutes in. WOW.
I don't even know why I'm buying inventory space considering I haven't even been close to filling it up because of this.Yeah there's a real lack of survival horror elements. The key items and crafting materials don't even take up inventory space. Still enjoying the game quite a bit though
Definitely enjoying it so far.
Though I am a bit disappointed that in the castle:
The sisters and Lady Dimitrescu were offed pretty quickly and without much effort. Like I was able to defeat the third sister within the span of less than a minute. And it wasn't nearly as hard to avoid the Lady throughout the castle, like it was difficult to avoid Mr. X. I think there were just a few too many options to get around her.
Not sure if standard difficulty is easier than previous installments, because I don't think I had it nearly as easy in RE7
Also I feel like the game is on a break-neck pace compared to other installments. Though I love the environments so I am still enjoying this thoroughly.
In regards to the section you put a spoiler tag on:
Everyone I've talked to, myself included, about Lady Dimitrescu were disappointed she dies so early lol. I completely overthought the first fight with her daughters. I saw that the cold obviously makes her vulnerable but it still looked like my bullets were going through her so I just did the whole fight with a knife. My friend was watching my stream as I was playing it and he was calling me a huge idiot because I couldn't figure out that breaking the glass made her vulnerable but she was saying bullets don't hurt her so I thought it meant you had to knife her to death. At least I saved a ton of ammo!
Completed the game. I quite enjoyed it. Beneviento's house can kiss my taint though. Damn place creeped me right out.
Just finished it last night. What a ride. For such a tonal departure from VII, I thought Village was excellent. It had its scary moments (House Beneviento, specifically), but overall it was a lot less scary than VII. What it lacked in horror, though, it made up in action.
Overall, it felt like a spiritual successor to RE4, so if you liked that game, you'll probably enjoy Village. If you're a fan of VII, you'll also probably like it, but I think you'd get the most enjoyment out of it if you adjust your expectations a little bit before starting the game.
I loved the atmosphere there, but it was pretty easy to complete and the monster thing was just silly looking. Did you let it kill you at all? I laughed very hard at how that occurs.
I hated RE4 and never finished it. This game definitely takes a ton of elements from that one, but it does it better. I'm still not a fan of no storage boxes and having the merchant though. Inventory space has rarely become an issue for me and has always been easily rectified in the game. It's definitely not nearly as scary as RE2 or Re7, and I hope they get away from the action trend because that's what doomed them last time with RE5 and RE6. Stick to staying creepy as best as possible.
unfortunately we have our fellow players to blame for that. There was not one scary moment for me in RE8 for me. I basically just went through areas easily that I suspect they tried to make scary. Also no VR option was also a negative for me.
“Speaking to Axios, producer Tsuyoshi Kanda said Capcom received Resident Evil 7 feedback and some players felt it was actually too scary. ... That constant fear was especially noticeable during the early portions of Resident Evil 7, which often found Ethan Winters chased through a large house by terrifying family members.”
