Resident Evil 7: Biohazard

Having not played any of the other resident evil games besides 4, take this with a grain of salt. It is not only one of the best looking games of all time, but contains a seriously effective and oppressively grim atmosphere. This game really had me unable to play for more than an hour at a time it got me so stressed out. I really enjoyed it, but I cannot say I would be able to do it again. The Bakers are repulsive villains and they seriously intimidate, harm, and brutalize Ethan as he tried to rescue his girlfriend. The boss fights and the ever looming presence of the big bad rednecks in the quieter moments means you hardly have moments to feel like you can breathe. There are quieter sections but they are weaved and laced masterfully with tense sound design and crisp, creepy environments. If the ending stuck the landing I think this would receive a perfect score but just because I didn't particularly care for it, the rest of the game is not diminished in my eyes.
