Hideki Kamiya thinks there should be a cozy Resident Evil game, where 'retired Leon goes fishing in the countryside'

Hideki Kamiya.

Hideki Kamiya cut his teeth on the Resident Evil games, working as a designer on the original and director of Resident Evil 2 before moving on to other things, like Devil May Cry, Viewtiful Joe, Okami, and Bayonetta. Ironically, he's not a big horror guy—he recently expressed a desire for a "non-scary mode" in Resident Evil games—and so understandably is not very interested in returning to the Resident Evil series.

But if he ever did, he would do things very differently. He would make it cozy.
