The Remakes fuck with the Lore, so playing RE7 is generally better before RE2 Remake, all the new RE games use the RE Engine. So, the gameplay, item storage, and menus, are basically identical. With minor additions and changes between games, and since RE7 released before RE2 Remake it's fine to do RE7>RE2R. Only if you played the original games, of course. Otherwise, play how you want. Ethan is slow as ass when moving, so going back to RE7 after 2/3/4 Remakes, and Village is kind of excruciating. VR is pretty damn good in 7 and 4 remake, never played it on Village. I'd recommend playing normally before VR, though. Changes the experience, usually for the better. Intended experience and then immersive experience, lots of fun.
