Where's the best point to jump into modern Resident Evil? (lemmy.world)

I played 1-4 back in the day, but my memory of the details is pretty fuzzy. Something something Umbrella releases a new virus like iPhones every few years, something something, somehow Wesker returned.

Anyway, I hear 7 is kind of a soft reboot? Is that a good one to get back into the series with, and not have to know 12 games of plot?

And if 7 is good, does 8/Village follow directly from that without needing too much prior game knowledge?

Just jump right into 7. 8 is kinda like 7 but more action oriented. Still pretty fun. Then go RE2 Remake and RE4 Remake. They're the best in the entire series. Then play original 4 again and realize I lied to you and that one is still the best.
