>>741337239You got filtered by sherry, adapedotroon
>>741337105Look, it's fine if you're too stupid to get the story, no need to fart in other people's cereal. At least you can enjoy shooting monsters, that's always cool.
if I vaguely remember watching my brother play re2 and I already played OG re4 can i just jump into requiem? i mean i'll play the other entries and all that shit eventually but i got requiem on sale off a keysite so i wanted to try it
>>741337105I've made this point a million times, but it's very obvious Capcom has no idea where to take the story after RE2. Functionally, the story is in the exact same spot, and RE9 is functionally just them shrugging their shoulders saying "uh, they go back to Racoon city or something".Wesker dying is really the only major event to happen after RE2, and even there they walk it back with clones and shit. Umbrella was gone, then back, then sorta back, but not really, etc. The story seems trapped in an endless loop with no direction.
>>741337105Remember when they were going to take Resident Evil in a more serious direction with 7 before relapsing into this type of nonsense?
>>741337776The story is over anon. They just can't let go and move on.And why should they?Creatures like anons here and normies will ensure they get paid for even the most half-assed continuance of the "plot".
>>741337776OP here. Absolutely my point. They have no idea what to do but the games keep making money lol
>>741337634surethe game has a 30min long DUDE REMEMBER THIS FROM RE2 segment later on but it's just nostalgiabait, the rest of the game is just tangential to the actual game of RE2i can't believe RE2R is old enough to nostlagiabait
>>741337105Did I miss something?The bomb in RE2 was 1996 and this game is 2026. Isn't Grace younger than 30?Also how could she have been related? Didn't Spencer adopt here afterwards?And he thought she was a clone but she was actually the original and all the clones were clones of her? How did they think she was a clone?
>>741338840Raccoon City Outbreak happened in 1998 and it got bombed in the first week of October that year
>>741337797They realized that it didn't work
>>741337105K I N O
>>741338647>>741337863Correct, but they have not made any real progress since 1998, which is almost 30 god damn years ago. You'd think in THIRTY YEARS they would do something like, I don't know, create something for the story to go? Anything? Why not hire back some of the original creators to come up with something?It's remarkable how little story progress has been made since even RE5, that was released in 2009, almost 20 years ago.
>>741338840>>741339259Interestingly, RE1 came out in 1996 but the events depicted were in 1998. And RE2 came out in 1998 and depicted events in 1998. If they had done forward planning, they might have done something like the first game taking place in like 2006 or something, to give them a bit of room for the series to slowly catch up. That way you wouldn't be stuck with nearly 60 year old heroes in today's time.Or just like not set games in the modern era?
>>741337105Wesker!
>>741337105omg is that the reddit man from reddit evil #1813737oh boy i cant wait til to see his cutscenes!!!
>>741337105No you don't understand. RE is silly camp fun, so because it's silly camp fun, you're supposed to put up with atrocious garbage. There's literally no difference between them.
>>741337462Thst's alot of words for saying nothing, bro.
>>7413377761, 2, 3, V, 4, 5 5 is the narrative conclusion of the original RE. The father of the big bad is dead, the big bad is finally dead, the og protag kills him, story established a safety net for the world, BSAA, to deal with future BOWs, Umbrella and Tricell are finished, Chris saves his partner, both fly off into the sunset like always, Hero wins.Everything important is resolved, the story that started in the Arklay mountains is finished. Anything else is just noise.
>>741340260It would be nice to, but from their perspective they don't have to. RE4's gameplay basically saved the franchise from death. Anyone who claims RE4's story is great is just lying to themselves. People remember 4 for the explosive gameplay that set new standards in gaming.
