The biggest larpers are the ones who think the movie isn't accurate to the games because the ways it's accurate are in ways that you'd only know if you played it instead of surface level similarities like story and characters and worldbuilding that any dickhead who has watched a YouTube video could find out and pretend to be an RE fan from.

>Zach Cregger confirmed in interviews how his original story and screenplay for the film was written as an original monster-horror film, which he would have made anyway, no matter if it would have been changed into a new Resident Evil film adaptation or not.
If it didn't take place in Raccoon City, this movie could be about anything. You could literally call it "The Courier" and nothing would change. All Gregger did was add memberberries like "look at this typewriter/green plant/same ammobox" etc.
It's just a random movie that they slapped "Resident Evil" on in order to get people to see it. It's a very smart move.

It's like when people say that the movie is structurally the same as the games because it has some random house, sewer, and lab that the protagonist goes into for a few minutes each. The actual feel of the games (extensive exploration, uncovering a location's backstory, backtracking, puzzles, etc) isn't there at all, it's just window dressing.

That's a different thing, that's just new fans being insecure about not having experienced OG when it came out.

>>748392142
I'm just pointing the flaw in the logic. If that logic holds, it applies to other media as well. Hence making those movies Resident Evil movies because of that "resident evil formula of three acts". I'm making fun of him and his reasoning.
Where does Parasite Eve and Dino Crisis fit in the RE timeline? They're obviosuly Resident Evilesque fames based on those parameters

>>748392174
People bought 6 but when they played it, they didn’t like it and the fallout from 6 played a big part in the Capcom dark ages. The only Resident Evil games released between 6 and 7 were Revelations 2 and Umbrella Corps. Revelations 2 was fine but not good enough and Umbrella Corps was when the franchise hit rock bottom.

NTA, but he's absolutely fucking right. Biohazard 1 is a hard science fiction story that takes itself seriously, and writers knew what they were doing when they made it. The fact that people can't understand the script is utterly insane, and it being so underappreciated is one of the greatest injustices in all of gaming.
Biohazard 1 is a fucking solid Michael Chrichton style thriller with themes of virology and genetic engineering.

>>748391332
Visual references aren't as important as the function. If it was structured and paced like a resident evil game, then the farm house at the start of the movie would be a huge sprawling location with lots of areas that need to be unlocked with puzzles, and it would have a backstory where you would discover it's part of a secret experiment/conspiracy instead of just a random house. And the protagonist would be exploring that area for almost half the runtime of the movie.

>>748392771
And millenials claim after this that it's a horror game. Must hurt that their RE isba horror comedy and ours is the definitive horror version

There have been three generations of RE fans.
Gods: Those that have played from 1 on the ps1. Honorary gods are those that have gone back and played the originals and seen that they are far superior to the schlock remakes (except 1 gc, the only true upgrade).
Normies: Those that jumped on when re4 came out and was released on like 7 different consoles over time. These people are retarded but deserve no ridicule unless they draw attention to themselves.
Bitches: Got into the series with Re7 or 8. Usually zoomers or trannies. They usually have utter dogshit opinions, like hating ada or liking how Ashley was changed.

Yes they can if they use George A. Romero's script, which was basically RE1 finetuned to perfection. If you can sit down and read for a while (you can divide the process, no need to read it all in one setting), you should check it out. You can find it on google. I bet that script costs pennies on the dollar

People who hate the new Resident Evil movie are larpers and fake fans, mostly people who read RE wiki and look up videos on youtube. True fans love this new canon and take on the universe. It's the same thing with Silent Hill.

Anon there was only one argument you could make here and that was to grow a pair and outright say that you actually think 5 and 6 were good and a good direction for the series to go in.

That means that he would ve needed to write a new script. That would take time and prolong him from moving on to his own projects. That's why they transformed his already existing script into Resident Evil universe (read: add easter eggs).
The movie was fun but it could have been called literally anything else and it wouldn't have changed anything

8 was trying to call upon 4's nostalgia (capcom literally said they were doing that, mainly to build hype both for 8 and readying people for the 4 remake), while still having attempts at being horror at points. 9 was going for the "we could do both horror AND action" using grace and leon to distinguish between the two different tones.

There's definitely a part of modern RE that recognises that people actually want the series to feel like horror to at least some extent

Because it's just bad, as is, as a normal movie, regardless of RE.
>virus has no consistency and does whatever it needs to do in any given scene to advance the plot: is it regular zombies? are they affected/frozen by the snow or not? Do they retain their personality after mutating like the little girl? Are they intelligent enough to hide like the starting zombie does like three consecutive times or retarded enough to jump off the roof of buildings trying to get to the protagonist? Do you turn into a normal dude or some reject Harkonnen-looking guy alone in the sewers (why is he there? who knows, doesn't matter, the scene's over in two minutes and it was just some random sidequest with no bearing other than the visuals)

8 is essentially 4 version 2.0 yes, but by doing that it is going in the direction of action. Even if the setting is more horror like the only true horror segment is that baby part, with everything else being varying degrees of action gameplay.

>There's definitely a part of modern RE that recognises that people actually want the series to feel like horror to at least some extent
Definitely. There is and always will be audience for good old survival horror resident evil but by now action is the default.

>virus has no consistency and does whatever it needs to do in any given scene to advance the plot
Already it’s very accurate to Resident Evil
>>
>>748395943
Infections in Resident Evil tend to have consistent effects and anomalies are explained in lore to some degree, with the odd mutation here and there that exists solely for cool factor.
>>
>>748396021
In other words….
>virus has no consistency and does whatever it needs to do in any given scene to advance the plot
>>
>>748395943
Didn't your youtube essayist tell you that the T-virus in RE 1 is not the same G-virus that's in RE2?
>>
>>748396046
There is a big difference between no consistancy plus no explanation and mostly consistant with some anomalies whose causes are explained.
>>
>>748395943
Wrong, retard. Stop larping.

>dude, this was made to be serious but lmao look at how silly it is XD that makes it a comedy XD
The Room came out at the wrong time. If it were released today it would be hailed as the single greatest movie ever made. For some reason 'its so bad its good' doesnt exist for people anymore. I guess it hurts peoples feelings or something.

Just do what I did, stop caring about the franchise. Resident evil has been a wigger retard bulletspraying codfag franchise since re4. And even though Re4 was a good game it shoulda been the one-off, not the new direction. We've been abandoned for over 20 years now, let it go and wait for remasters of the originals when they come out its all we have.

Let the wiggers, niggers, and trannies have it. It's literally not important anymore, or worth getting emotionally invested into. Modern capcom fans past the year 2005 are the biggest drooling moron retard corporate slaves on the planet next to Sony and Nintendo fans. They'll defend the company tooth and nail despite this company not giving a fuck about them, Capcom will do whatever gets them the most money and fuck the fans. even if it meant going back to catering to the original fans.

As horny/campy as it was you could argue Lady Dimitrescu (at least the part in the mansion) was also horror since it was a pursuer segment with your gun being useless against her. I know you wouldn't think of that as scary, but you're certainly not appealing to the action crowd by throwing an enemy that can't be killed at the player.

>but by now action is the default.
Even looking at 9 they made sure the horror was the first major part. Looking at the segments it was basically short horror, short action, short horror, short action, followed then by a long horror segment then a long action segment. If the action was meant to be the default they would have done it the other way around. Especially when you then factor in that RE tend to put all their effort into making the earlier parts of the game good.

It's Leon tourists it's always been Leon tourists. Resident Evil isn't high fiction, but it is the dramatic blended in with the corny. It was a debate window into how Japanese saw our horror movies. There always used to be a feeling of stakes, but that has all gone out the window pretty much since RE5.

Racoon city nuked? JK. New character to focus on? Nah let's include Chris and Leon into their story too.

What you fail to see is that Resident Evil is at the height of it's popularity with it's games being absolute top tier, this soft reboot of a movie is a 1:1 textbook version of Resident Evil universe and changing the pre-ecmxisting lore for modern audiences is nothing short of amazing. This might sound a bit dramatic but if I was the CEO of Capcom, I would just scrap all the pre-existing games prior 2006 and stop acknowledging them and remove from online stores. Lets face it, the toxic older fanbase just hinders Capcom's future endeavors with their fanaticism.
>>
>>748396527
Crazy how the Leon games just so happen to be the only good games
>>
>>748396595
I wouldn't blame you, it'd be the most profitable thing to do. It makes the most business sense. That said, I couldn't give two shits enough to make a whole fuck about capcom, their investors, shareholders, or their money.

I have absolutely no emotional attachment to this series anymore, I just hate seeing old fans burn themselves out arguing with Capcom marketers and braindead fans. The series is dead to its original fans who held on their tastes for the original games. I'd rather just tell old fans to move on and accept reality like I did. We aren't now and never will be again the target audience.
>>
The funniest thing about Resident Evil fans is that they act as if its fine dining when its always been a corny white trash franchise.

Of course not, you were not there.

In my 40's kiddo, I was the original audience. Anyways nice simple bait, got me to reply. You can scream you mad now ima go play vidya. Start the reply chain where you assume my identity and make it look like you defeated the detractor. Its how all these threads die.
>>
>>748396495
I might be wrong but the first real gameplay segment of 9 is Leon in the streets, and Grace's section has a few Leon battles within it, while Leon's is uninterrupted until the lab. The horror section being first seems less as it taking priority and more as a proper escalation of events.
>but you're certainly not appealing to the action crowd by throwing an enemy that can't be killed at the player.
Dimitrescu is just an obstacle(a really easy one, but thats another conversation), the castle has the same action gameplay as everywhere else but sometimes you need to rush a bit. While chaser enemies are associated with 7 and 2 remake, her inclusion doesn't shift the gameolay enough to make it survival horror oriented.
>>
>>748396884
You go play vidya, I'm going to eat dinner with my wife and kid.
>>
I've only ever played re4 (original on the GameCube) to completion. I replay it at least once a year since one of my all time favorite games. I think all the ws Anderson movies suck dick. I'll probably see the cregger movie and enjoy it to some degree.
Well that's it, that's all I gotta say. See you in court
>>
Any original fan that thought "yes I should continue to follow the series after 5" deserves the headache they get. Even worse if they actively defended 5 or any of the Paul WS Anderson movies
>>
The issue is that RE7 and RE2 Remake brought in a load of new fans who dont give a fuck about the old games.

Why are you telling us your wife's boyfriend impregnated her?

Surely capcom didn't basically say "ok guys, we're going to focus on the action for this action/horror hybrid game. So lets force the player to do hours of horror first before they get to really experience that action"? Plus even then loads of people ended up liking the horror stuff more anyway.

>>748397076
Do your wife and kid know you post on 4chan? That makes you an automatic deadbeat dad.

But RE7 and especially RE2 Remake were specifically the games to bring back the gameplay and mechanics of the older games.

How far would Trevor get in a Resident Evil game?
>>
Anyone else having a hard time going back to the tank controls in the classic games? I don't remember the run to RPD being such a nightmare.
>>
>>748397543
You'll get it once you step inside the RPD. People could do it as kids so you can easily manage as an adult
>>
In 20 years from now people will say Re9 was peak and all the new Re fans who only played Re16 are retarded.
Let that sink in...
>>
>>748397323
And lots of people enjoyed action more. Regardless, they consistently interspaced Grace's section(which is already very short since it's a bit less than half of the game) with action sequences, so no one had to wait hours to experience the action gameplay. Anyway, putting the meat of Grace's section after Leon's section would be too much of a deescalation.
>>
>>748397481
But it's true. Mechanics once considered staples of the series like limited saves, keys, hub-level sections, proper ammo conservation were forgotten for years until RE7 and RE2 Remake brought them back.
>>
>>748397616
Would probably help that I play on a bigger screen. Was trying to play on a 12" CRT and that's a nightmare.
>>
>>748397543
Did Re2 and Re3 (this one for the first time) a couple months ago.
If it makes you feel better, the run to the RPD is the hardest part since you are forced to avoid zombies in tight corridors because of no ammo. After that you can do the whole game playing cautiously, never having to get close to any threats, except dogs. Shotgun the dogs, they deserve it.
>>
>>748397543
I'm the opposite, I'm having a hard time going back to the style of 4 and 5, feels really hard all of a sudden
>>
>>748397773
Rev 1 and to a lesser extent Rev 2 had that, though they were primarily action leaning.
>>
>>748397745
>And lots of people enjoyed action more.
I dunno. Seemed on here at least people had a "once you get to the proper Leon part you're past the best parts of the game" attitude.
>>
Sell revelation 1 and 2 for me. I've never played them but somewhat intrigued and they cost a literal dollar
>>
>>748397882
Raccoon City can be a bit of a drag but i have seen people happy to be done with Grace. In any case, i have learned to never take anything i see in /v/ as a good representative of anything.

>>748397543
The big problem with tank controls is the attitude that RE is a console series to be played with a controller. Tank controls work way better on keyboard,

So those easter eggs should exist
That should be the movie

>>748398665
It was commie propaganda
>>
>>748387364
It was alright. They did well with the angle of
>it's a Resident Evil game
>but the main character has no idea how to play them
But beyond that, they hit a lot of the beats I'd expect in a Resi game, the new parasite infected are all pretty good, the comedy was decently balanced aside from a couple cringe moments, and it did well with the tension and spooks. I also was in awe that they actually went and did zombie babies, and that every bit I'd hope they'd show when they went for it did in fact happen

I'd only complain about two big things
1) The fat guy didn't actually do anything, and I thought he'd be an absolute monster in a big sewer section
2) The ending was handled very poorly. That kind of ending is perfectly fine to do, but they presented in a way that took basically all the impact out of it, and having the cure be discarded in a way that's all but guaranteed to be destroyed kills a lot of the "oh he was just the background NPC the whole time, the actual protag will fight him and find his audio logs" cope

Although if they do a sequel, showing that somehow the massive pile of blood and viscera he created by murking the zombies and amalgam was able to save it would be a nice "see his shit did matter" moment, even if it'd be silly

How was the comedy balanced in any way? Every moment is either unserious or followed immediatly by a comedic relief attempt.
