I think it's real good but i don't think it dethrones remake imo
Now that u played RE7 and loved it do u consider it the best in the series ?

Not even close.
Probably not, unfortunately. It is shockingly close though.
What about Survivor?
Fuck that. It's all about Gaiden.
For me RE1 and especially RE2 will never be topped!
However I really enjoyed RE7 and for me this comes closest to 1 and 2, although I did have a soft spot for Code Veronica aswell

I had almost as much fun with RE7 as I did with RE1 way back. That's saying a lot because with RE1 I didn't expect anything and was floored by what it delivered. I had only played games like Mario, Zelda and Final Fantasy. RE7 wowed me on a different level as an older jaded gamer. Or maybe RE6 was so bad I had no expectations. Either way it was super fun and I enjoyed that Capcom brought back the horror, mystery and exploration. Thanks Capcom.
Eh, it's definitely a good RE but I wouldn't say it's nearly as good as the series' best, RE1, REmake and RE2, though I do prefer it to most of the series post-2. I'd say RE4/5 could be argued as better but it's a real return to form after years of shitty games, especially the spin-offs.
My personal ranking would be something like:
RE2 > REmake > RE1 > RE5 > RE7 = RE4 > RE3 > RECV > RE0

Nothing will ever top REmake.
As great as the dark atmosphere was in RE7, REmake is still better in that department. Never really felt scared playing RE7.
REmake still gives me goosebumps during certain sections in the game. Especially when Crimsons are running loose!![[face_worried]](https://cdn.statically.io/img/www.ignboards.com/styles/ign/ign/smilies/classic/worried.gif "Worried [face_worried]")

It's a good game and a good sign for the future of the IP, but REmake is still my favorite. Everything about that game oozes atmosphere. I still replay it.
It's good, but I would have it no higher than fifth on my personal list. REmake > RE4 > RE3 > RE2 > RE7
Above it I have RE4, RE2, REmake, Revelations 2 and CV.
It was a really good game but not a big fan of FP games

It's pretty good. More importantly, it restores my faith in the series and I would definitely be interested in any follow ups now. Whereas before RE7 I was ready to retire this series for good.
There's no way you can rank RE7 too high, however, because it's simply too damn easy compared to the other games. That detracts a lot from any serious consideration as a "best" anything in gaming. It's also much shorter than any main title RE game released.
Still, I do think it's better than most of the games in the series. And, yeah, it also reminded me of RE1 in many ways. What I mean is, in that sense that you were playing something brand new and very claustrophobic/spooky with a mysterious story that you really wanted to get to the bottom of.
That makes RE7 pretty remarkable, actually.
REmake is still the best RE game, followed closely by RE2. I put RE7 below Code Veronica, but above RE3.
RE5 comes next, followed by RE4. I never liked Zero, tbh, and normally it would be last ... but that special place in hell is reserved for RE6!

Its certainly the best one in recent times. REmake.Re2 and Re4 still edge it out imo.
Above 0, 4, 5 and 6, as well as the Revelations games. Not as good as the PSOne trilogy, CVX or REmake. Enemy design, outside the Baker family, was definitely a let down, and combat was a bit of a chore. They really nailed the exploration and sense of progression though. I honestly didn’t think they had it in them to make a true survival horror game again, really glad they proved me wrong!

I enjoyed it more than I enjoyed most games last year...not the best horror game, but not the worst Resident Evil, either. It's got a great polish to it, and the focus on the family brought the game into its own, honestly. It honestly did creep me out pretty good, particularly when you get to the darkened child's room.
That's something RE5, RE6, and Revelations didn't do for me. Creep me out, so in terms of horror, it's better than those three. But nowhere above REmake...maybe a tie with RE3 and CV.

No. Resident Evil 4 is still my favorite.
