ah shithere we go again
Setting up my emulator for some good ol OG RE2, requiem got me in the mood for more RE. Question is, should I do Leon or Claire?
>>559956956Well this time it isn’t a pedophile serial killer trying to kidnap you It’s a little better
>>559956845Just want to say people need to stop acting like RE2 gutted the 'other routes' from RE2 OG, there aren't other 'routes' to begin with, you do mostly the same thing but have exclusive scenes with Ada/Sherry just like in the remakes
MIRANDA RIGHTS
>>559957141thats ashley
Just want to say I love Jill
>>559957051I don't like how we can't kill the BOW girlsIs this the first time in an RE game where a once unkillable enemy is never killable?
>>559957273Ashley isn´t pale skinned. that´s clearly Miranda
>>559957474You’re like a 6 year old dude How are you going to kill the little girl BOWs
>>559957785lure and drop them into an incinerator
>>559957785With a brick, duh.
>>559957647>>559957362Ok the 100 years vs. 500 years really cleans up a lot of my concerns. I can believe it a lot more now. >the Black God Mold colony that’s at least 500 years oldI feel dumb now because clearly I recall a 500 year thing being referenced, but what does this mean vs. 100 years Miranda has been infected?

>>559957861>>559958043Did you two not watch the one little girl BOW just straight up break its back falling on the floor and then getting right back up The fuck a brick going to do >incinerator How on earth is Chloe, in fact where the fuck is the incinerator
Sherry generalEmily generalNatalia general
>>559957647>with them developing as the game went on and asking Ethan for favors for them in the form of side questwell we certainly dodged a bullet there
Now that Requiem has released, what other horror titles are you guys looking forward to this year? I think Hellraiser Revival is still shaping up to be my most anticipated.
>>559958083Ada Superiority reigns
>>559958305Ill looks pretty interesting too, iirc this month we have Fatal Frame 2 remake
>>559958198>where the fuck is the incineratoroy vey
>>559958420Fuck that made me laugh I’m public you bastard
>>559958420>Jewish landlord brutally gutted at beginning by Umbrella BOW in RE9What did Capcom mean by this?
>>559956710>Making Nemesis into a pathetic bitch that makes the Ustanak look like a Chad is fucking disgracefulI gotta say, I agree, but I'm also impressed they managed to do that. Ustanak is a bad Nemesis ripoff made by someone who doesn't understand Nemesis, and somehow, RER3 Nemesis is a bad ripoff of Ustanak. How does that happen? I actually favored Carlos sections in RER3 simply because I could go longer than 10 minutes without seeing Nemesis' stupid face.
>>559958305No backup ILL

>>559958926We don’t know yet, but the implication is that they’ve been co-opted by The Connections who’ve managed to worm their way in. Which makes sense. No one suspects the experts on stopping this stuff to be dirty as well.
>seeing people now try to do mental gymnastics that "well re9's second half is clearly a different game stapled on, so it's obvious now that the commander isn't actually hunk and was just supposed to be him in a different build so therefore he's fine"What the absolute fuck is wrong with people over this one goddamn Boba Fett?

>>559959017>nobody cared who he was until he put on the bag
>>559958072I’m not really sure what you mean, but Miranda being 100 just means she extended her life
>>559959604That arterial blood spraying on the wall was fucking insane
>>559959537Hunk has been a fan favorite for a long time so it’s not really surprising. That said, I think there’s a pretty healthy chance it was just a clone so I can’t blame them really
>>559959727that became one of my favorite parts of the game after being kinda lukewarm on it when it was revealed because of how dynamic it wasor how the maid will come in and discover that huge blood mess and start freaking out just like she is in the bathroom when you first discover her, that was so immersive
>>559959697Well I remembered something happened 500 years ago regarding the mold according to the files, and anon mentioned that miranda's thing happened 100 years ago but the "Black God Mold" colony started 500 years ago. I guess Im just asking what that is. Is that just the mold itself is 500 years old? How they know that.

>>559960324Strangely enough, I can’t actually find the source for the 500 year old figure, I might be mixing it up with something else, but Google does say the same thing, just doesn’t give a source… anyway we know it’s at least way older than Miranda since she had the cascading consciousnesses of lots of people who were already dead flow into her once she made contact with it. The Black God colony (also called the Megamycete in the English localization) is essentially either a major source of the Mold or the very first source of it that we see in RE7 and 8. It’s esssentially a repository of people’s memories, DNA and consciousnesses, The Connections have more or less synthesized it though so it’s unlikely this is the last we’ll see of it even with its ‘death’ in Village.
What were they thinking
>>559963026It wasn’t. It’s objectively more braindead than 2R. The dodge/punch and counter attack makes everything encounter into a cake walk. Stalker Nemesis will always die to a single Grenade, so he’s not threatening in the slightest, and his boss fights are beyond boring because of how dodging trivializes them. 2R was scary because of how thoroughly Mr. X would stalk you throughout the RPD, and how even a single shot would immediately alert him to your presence. The enemy variety was also much better, and made every encounter feel challenging.
Seethe
>>559964305Resistance was bundled in with the 3 Demake because of how shitty and short it was. It was so bad that Capcom took M-Two off development of 4R’s campaign, and made them all assistant’s to the main team instead.
>>559964509>supercop makes encounters easykino
>>559962802Give it up man. Everyone says your Demake is garbage, and it was rightfully torn to pieces by both fans and critics when it released. OG 3 is still remembered as a classic, and has a real legacy. What did your abortion of game leave behind aside from Skinwalker Jill, and disappointed fans?
>>559964701>skins for the requiem show in cutscenes>but if you upgrade it for the alternate look it just reverts back to normalfuckers
>>559964962You would have shit on it even if it was as good as RE2 remake (it was)nostalgiaschizo opinions don't matter
>>559964275>The Connections have more or less synthesized it though so it’s unlikely this is the last we’ll see of it even with its ‘death’ in VillageNot that anon but I think thats just lazy tie in to connect re7/8 to the rest of the series after rebooting it. Capcom clearly went for a fresh start, but after the success of the RE2,3,4 remakes and 9, I doubt we will ever see the mold ever again.
>>559964509nah this is where you're wrong3make genuinely played better than 2make, by a long shot
>>559965096>Capcom clearly went for a fresh startAnon RE7 has a free DLC where Chris comes up wondering what the fuck is with Blue Umbrella before he counter-punches molded so hard their heads explode. It was never a total reboot, if they wanted a reboot they would've stopped giving them numbers entirely instead of these cheeky "number in the title" things.
>>559964939But it’s not fun or challenging, like you keep trying to say. Where’s the worry of resource management when you can just perfect dodge and counter with a shot that automatically locks on to the weak point?
>>559965096Revelations 3 with ojisan Jake and adult Natalia dealing with a C-Virus strain and exploring their Wesker connections against a Wesker vlone antagonist while Carl Jung is being woven throughout the plot.
>>559965063It wasn’t. No amount of your revisionism will change the fact that it sucked.>>559965195Not even close.
The game is just a true 7/10 modern game, not bad but not great, decent enough. Only a notch or two above middling.It's really not much to fuss over but if you were a diehard fan of the classic and bought this day one for $60 only to be met with something you really don't recognize, you would rightfully hate it. It doesn't leave a lasting impression and is definitely the weakest modern entry below Village (I really enjoyed Village for what it was)
>>559965452>nuh uhRE3 always sucked and you're just mad the remake (an 8/10 game) is exposing it to be like a 7/10 ps1 game instead of this mythical GOAT you pretend it to be
>>559965303You're arguing with someone else right now mate. Relax about RE3R already
I like it
>>559965475It’s a 6. More specifically, it’s RE6 2. From the bland action set pieces, to the repeated QTEs, to the dumb gimmick boss fights. It was just a worse version of Jake’s campaign that removes everything fun and unique about the original.
>>559965475Jill is just a true 10/10
>>559965257I think they wanted the best of both worlds, reboot+sequel/numbered entry status. They wanted the power of a numbered sequel to easily market to existing fans, becasue lets be honest, we all roll our eyes when "Game (20XX)" instead of Game 7 comes out, but they also wanted to save the series with a fresh take and focus on horror. It saved the series, which justified them taking a stab at remakes, which became even more popular than RE7.You reference DLC, but its very clear the base game had a core design philosophy different to the most recent RE games. The DLC could have very well just been them leaving the door open, tying the base game to the overall universe to milk further. The base RE7 is very light on its ties to the rest of the series, the DLC, and especially Redfield showing up at the very end, was just a life vest for them to pivot if needed.
>>559965589It was always good. Nemesis got his reputation for a reason, and that’s because RE3 was arguably the best of the classic era. If it wasn’t good, they would’ve buried it in shame rather than constantly referencing it, and making Nemesis a guest character in multiple games. Hell, they wouldn’t have continued making Mercenaries a game mode in almost every numbered entry afterwards either, since it got its start in 3.
In Japan the generation bundles they do for the RE games tend to have the box art of the discounted versions due to overstock
>>559966318Best of the classic era is 1*
>>559965589RE3 was the best mainline entry though?
>>559966339Wonder how soon is too soon for these ports
Well, that was my last playthrough for a while. Did a "kill everything" made up challenge on insanity because why not (no infinite weapons, that's too boring).Just waiting for DLC now. This game consumed my life this past week, time to move on.
>>559966450That’s why I said arguably. I liked the blend of action and survival horror in 3, so it’s my personal favorite, but I can still appreciate and respect the original RE1.
>>559966691>Deluxe>Deluxe>Goldwhy
>>559965928I think she's fine. She has her own appeal. Her characterization was...rigid, to be nice. I don't like it. Voice acting is flat, bordering on awful. Dialogue is....And the new character design is just objectively inferior to every single old Jill design. IDK what it is with most of these short hair designs in the REmakes but they never actually capture the styles of the era they're supposed to be depicting. Ashley's hairstyle in 4R comes to mind. And God forbid a woman wear a real skirt and not shorts with a flap in the front
>>559966339>>559966691Did these get revealed somewhere?
>>559966795Deluxe means bonus content gold means it’s had an actual story expansion
>>559958219The Lottie hood is actually quite disturbing as she crawls out.
>>559966737no one cares insanity LARper
The fact that there was supposed to be a proper Nemesis 2 at one point is incredibly disappointing. The Dog form is the dumbest and most tone deaf thing I’ve ever seen. The entire Po of the original is that while Nemesis starts out incredibly intimidating, you slowly wear him down throughout the game until he’s a crippled puddle trying to keep himself together in the end. It makes you feel strong for choosing to fight him, and it’s rewarding when you finally put him down for good in the end. Making him get stronger may be more lore accurate, but it’s just not satisfying from a story or gameplay perspective.
>>559966737I care. Good job.
I really liked the dodge/punch mechanic, you can see how that leads into the 4R knife parry and contextual evades. I would like to see that directional scramble/dodge mechanic return. Getting the slow mo effect on the perfect dodge/punch is definitely campy but I enjoyed it a lot, it's a very PS2 style mechanic and reminded me a lot of Tomb Raider Legend trilogy perfect dodge. I also really liked the way it switches control between Jill and Carlos. Despite Carlos not getting very much to do and his assault rifle kinda sucking ass, you can see what they were going for with the split characters, especially in Requiem. I think it's a great idea to break things up during the story, I'm always a fan of that in RPG games with party members. If there is another new RE1 remake I hope it follows this 9 and 3 formula and you switch control between Jill and Chris throughout the story, rather than trying to design 2 campaigns
>>559967440The exposed heart is also another gripe I have. Tyrants stopped having those after they got around to the T-102 phase, and since Nemesis is a modified T-102, he shouldn’t have one. Nemesis’s entire purpose is to hunt and kill every last surviving S.T.A.R.S. Member from the Mansion Incident, and Jill/Chris killed the T-002 there because it had a giant weakpoint on its chest. It’s absurd to believe that Umbrella would see this, and go on to send another Tyrant that also has a giant weak point on his chest.
>>559967370>insanity LARperOnce you upgrade your guns as Leon the game gets much easier, but before that yeah it's fucking brutal and I died many times.Leon on insanity is a completely different and much better game imo. It forces you to use you entire arsenal and hatchet.
>>559967795Dodging helps differentiate Jill's super speshul Mary Sue background from it literally being Leon's first day. For me the best part of 3R though was the characterizations. I love Jill, Carlos, Mikhail, and Nikolai were great, and Hannibal Buress as Tyrell was an odd choice but I thought it worked.
New patch increased upper bounds for resolution on Switch 2 in docked, and tweaked the hair, on PS5 it disabled RT in Raccoon city
>>559967795I didn’t like the Dodge/Punch for reasons I’ve stated above. It just trivializes too much of the game. With Leon’s parries, they’re at least balanced with the durability mechanic. With the dodges, there’s no limit to them, and they instantly lock on to the weak point and do increased damage. It feels more like I’m cheating instead of properly maneuvering around enemies and using my resources wisely, and it’s just not fun.
>>559968319what resolution can it even manage on a Switch, 1366x768?
>>559968130Hard disagree. Jill is probably the most insufferable character since Moira, and the fact that she still acts and locks like that in Death Island is a travesty.
>>559968380In docked previously it would target 1080p as its max, now it is unlocked to up to 4KInternally it runs anywhere from 540p to 720pThis makes it pretty similar to PS5/PS5 Pro which run 1080p max and upscale to 4k
>>559968372The dodge is balanced by a massive cooldown that leaves you completely open and vulnerable, that happened to me all the time. Sure, if you're nailing it all the time it's almost impossible to get hit. But pulling the knife is almost instant with very little cooldown before you can pull the knife again. Dodging early is a recipe for disaster
>>559968130>Dodging helps differentiate Jill's super speshul Mary Sue background from it literally being Leon's first dayNice way of putting it, Jill and Carlos are both already killing machines
>>559968654why is someone poking Jill with a very thin lightsaber
Haunted Lands has released.
>>559968654If you suck at dodging, sure, but it’s incredibly easy to string them together. Pulling the knife out for parries or stabs is balanced by the fact that it will break if you spam it, and leave you in a position where you have no way to defend yourself. The dodge has no resource like durability or a cooldown to limit it from spamming it through every encounter.
>>559969193You're not fun at all, very very insufferable
>>559965096>>559966273I don’t agree. I don’t think the success of recent games has anything to do with them choosing the Mold to focus on. It’s very versatile and allows for a wide range of gameplay and narrative possibilities. RE7 was a fresh start yes but the arrival of Chris already shows they clearly intended to bring back the wider universe rather than just leaving it as a one off. It wouldn’t surprise me if the BSAA were using the Mold themselves given the creation of Eveline.
>>559968956Why did this scene have to be like this
>>559969193>The dodge has no resource like durability or a cooldown to limit it from spamming it through every encounter.Maybe you first-timed your dodges well enough because without cranking up the difficulty RE3R isn't very difficult, but if you try to spam dodges back to back you'll be left for a good couple seconds unable to do much of anything. And there's a solid second after a dodge where the window is absent and you'll just eat shit. Yeah it's not a resource, I think that was a learning step between 3R and 4R, but without the dodge manual it's actually really easy to mistime it for less skilled players and take a hit. But if you're good at these games, it's so comically abusable.
>>559967440>you slowly wear him down throughout the game until he’s a crippled puddle trying to keep himself together in the end.And the game by the second to last battle was not subtle about this. Keep throwing acid at Nemesis and he'll be a headless monster just randomly attacking.>Making him get stronger may be more lore accurateI wouldn't even say it's that lore accurate. T-Virus monsters don't become stronger over time if they are fighting that constantly. T-002 only got more aggressive after waking up all groggy (In the remake at least), and Mr. X tyrants are simply removing their limiter coats. It's other viruses after T that keep mutating and becoming stronger with seemingly no limits. The only Tyrant I can think of that really mutated after taking heavy damage is Thanatos from REO, and while it became bigger, he also lost an arm and his heart became a bigger weak point, so his mutation wasn't fully beneficial.Plus, it's a lot less unique to mutate and become stronger in this franchise (Specially with how overused it became in later games). Nemesis is very much like Terminator 1's T-800. You can fight him and cripple him, but he's not stopping until either you or him are dead. Plus it made him stand out compared to Birkin too, because Birkin has many forms and mostly becomes stronger, while Nemesis actually doesn't mutate at all until the very last fight, and by then he's worse than ever, on his last legs, had to eat another Tyrant's remains to really mutate.
>>559968094I mean, he doesn’t actually have it until he’s dealt enough damage. Otherwise he’s pretty much just a brick. Which leads me to believe it’s not something they can actually fix, presumably because it’s acting as his main lifeline. >>559968585At least Moira kinda grows on you. Jill is just kinda meh.
>>559969504because it was hot
bitch can't even swim
>>559969689moira is fine when you realize she's just an edgy teenager(21), jill's just a bitch in 3make with some super cringe dialogueI'll never forgive them for BITCH CANT EVEN SWIM
>>559969516I died a lot. Nemesis was crazy strong in the 2nd form fight. Dead in 2 grabs on hardcore, 1 grab will put you into danger. Mistime one dodge or dodge in the wrong direction without any healing items and you're dead instantly
>>559969775>if leon said it would be cool
>>559969917He'd probably be like>Someone call the lifeguard
>>559969917Leon would've said >Shoulda stuck to the kiddie pool...
>>559969917if leon said it it would be just as cringe
>>559969628I think it’s more accurate to the lore because at the end of the day, he’s T-Virus creation, meaning he’d also be susceptible to V-ACT. The Nemesis Parasite was also retconned to be the Plagas, which also mutate and get stronger in response to damage. Either way, I think we can agree that the Dog and Meat Wall forms were really dumb.
>>559969689>>559969790Jill didn’t shoot her little sister, and spend the next decade blaming everyone but herself.
>>559969775What the fuck is she supposed to say watching some monster who won't take the fucking hint flail around on fire before falling in a river after like the 4th time she fought it
>>559969917Leon would say it with the driest tone imaginable, and it wouldn't be much better.
>>559969689Mr. X and OG Nemmy didn’t need a giant heart pump outside his coat.
>>559970293>please let this bastard be done with already>GODDAMMIT CAN'T YOU TAKE THE HINT?
>>559970293I dunno, a lot of thingslike "it's still alive??" or "persistent little shit" or "you've gotta be squidding me" or "fugg :DDDD" or even "what"
>>559970293Not everything needs a response.
Speaking of RE3R.
It definitely gives you new appreciation for Silent Hill 2 remake and how faithful it was, all of those memes about what they were going to do to the story and dialogue were almost literally word for word the same shit that was done in RE3RThe way they speak is way too modern and Californian full of nonstop FUCKING cursing and snarky attitude, it's not very campy or faithful 1990's dialogue at all. Definitely nowhere near "midwestern American"
>>559969917>shoulda kept your trunks on
G-grace...
>>559970180>The Nemesis Parasite was also retconned to be the PlagasWhat? No, it’s still a unique parasite with no relation to Plagas

No one can conclusively say whether or not they could swim that fast, unless the writer assumes we are marvelslop brained and are waiting for the witty quip. "Lets hope he can't swim" would have been less cheesy for example.

>>559970646Not true. The files in 3R and 4R confirm that the Nemesis Parasite was an artificial creation by Luis and his team to recreate the mind controlling effects of the Plagas. While not being literally the Plagas like remembered, it’s technically an off shoot made to replicate it.
why is grace always so moistdoes she have a sweating condition
>>559970803I think Jill’s VA is the Marvel fan, since the VAs do have a bit of a sway on what goes in the game. Neil Newbon was the one who suggested the "Boulder Punching Asshole" line in 8 after all.
>>559970546It's honestly one of my biggest problems with modern RE in general, and it started in Revelations 2 with Moira's crap. Before that point RE was a weird sort of series in having bastards, dammits, shits, but it was that comically tame Japanese way of doing it where you'd expect a fuck but they restrained themselves. Once they got away with Moira though, plus more blatant american TV/film influence than ever, you got Ethan and his constant fuck chains, Leon and Claire upgraded to going WHAT THE FUCK a lot, Jill swearing in nearly every other non-plot sentence, etc. Like, I see Vendetta Leon and he's still mostly tame, then I see RE9 Leon and he's going "What a fuckin' shame," "Oh, holy shit", "oh FUCK" and it just sorta takes me out of it now that he's swearing every other sentence too when he's not talking to Sherry or Grace.
>>559970967>like I remembered
>>559970967They were inspired by them yes, that doesn’t make them the same thing at all. And that’s not a retcon, both the original and remakes are canon so it’s just another retelling.
>>559971295The originals aren’t canon anymore. Quit with this lie. 9 already proved that the OG 2 and 3 never happened.
>>559971373>9 already proved that the OG 2 and 3 never happened.>he says about the game that brought the classic plant 43's elements back combined with the giant spiders that were absent in the remake parts of the franchise
>>559971134Yeah Nicole is the one who came up with Jill being cute saying she knows what a radio is, which makes sense anyway because explaining a radio to a very overqualified cop is completely unnecessary and was only done for the player's benefit.That and Nick apparently changed a line in 2R because he's from Boston and couldn't say "that's why I became a cop" without his accent turning it into "that's why I became a cawp"
>>559971448Yeah, and it’s also clear this is the first time Leon is seeing this stuff, because the OG 2 never happened.
>>559971134>Neil NewbonCompletely unrelated, but I am really bad with accents, am I tripping or did Heisenberg have a British accent or something? A mix? I really cannot tell. To me he sounds exactly like Liquid Snake, but even then I get fucked up because Master Miller has an American-Birtish accent. I am like autistically voice blind I think, I regularly confuse Australian and British accents for example. But something about his voice acting seemed distinctly not American.
>>559971714It's a hybridization of the storytelling elements of the remakes and the themes and ideas of both at this point, honestly. There would be no point to trying to lay RE2 music snippets beyond the RPD front hall notes if they didn't matter at all to the remake stuff, because RE2R had next to nothing but those little note hints every rare occasion in its frankly shit new soundtrack. It wants to appeal to both the new AND old fans instead of totally abandoning the old for the new.
https://x.com/lluarix/status/2031457301261861029well there's about 5 minutes shaved off from the orphanage
>>559971753Neil Newbon himself is British, but Heisenberg is German. I think he’s just meant to have a vaguely European accent that you can’t really place, like Tommy Wiseau.
>>559971373You’re just wrong. They’re equally canon minus the minor details. The same broad strokes still happen.
How did both Revelations games magage to out do every mainline game for story telling?
>>559971832It’s not. Quit lying, and spreading the bullshit that Capcom continues to spew. They went with Remake events in flashbacks and Remake locations because only the remake is canon, not the original.
>>559972067It isn’t. If it was, we’d see Leon remembering things from the OG 2 instead of exclusively from 2R. All of the references are references to the events of the remakes, not the originals.
>>559972140Good that means Jill is permanently 24 and when she comes back it’ll still be Nicole voicing her
Reminder that GOG had to fight to get proper ports of the OG games because Capcom couldn’t understand why anyone would ever want to play those dusty old things. In their minds, the Remakes are objective improvements over the originals, which is why they’re front and center, and the OGs get left on the sideline.
>>559970180>he’s T-Virus creation, meaning he’d also be susceptible to V-ACT.Sure, it's just that other Tyrants generally didn't mutate that much after the coats are off, specially not to the extent RER3 Nemesis did, so Nemesis not mutating that much wasn't that unusual.>The Nemesis Parasite was also retconned to be the Plagas, which also mutate and get stronger in response to damage.Inspired by it, not literally Las Plagas.>Either way, I think we can agree that the Dog and Meat Wall forms were really dumb.Meat Wall was also annoying in the gameplay side of things in two very different ways. In regular difficulties, it's just a giant, meat wall with obvious weak points and boringly cinematic. In Inferno and the difficulty before it, he attacks much faster, so much faster that your only way to dodge is with the perfect dodge, and if you don't, he can keep attacking in a way that is mostly impossible to avoid the next attacks (There are a few situations where you can mash fast enough to avoid the next strike, but it depends on the next hit being that slow), so either you do constant perfect dodges, or you die from being comboed to death. In Inferno he's the hardest boss in all of RE, and not in a fun way.>>559971231>and it started in Revelations 2 with Moira's crap.Even Moira was not as constant about it, although whenever she did say something weird it was cringe ("Go ride on a dildo boss!"). I can be more forgiving of REV2 because it's only Moira talking that way, so she's teenager among adults.
>>559972471I'm still so pissed at that... It feels like Nakanishi erasing games he wasn't involved with, therefore worthless.
>>559972623this is probably not a director decision, but executive. capcom execs have ALWAYS been retarded.
>>559972296Yes, because that’s what people remember in recent memory so of course they’re going to use those events and not flashback to the janky 1998 versions, that doesn’t change the fact that according to them they’re both valid.
>>559972513Believe me, I know. I 100% the game because I was bored. I know that if you don’t chain the dodges together just right, you get stun locked to death.
>>559972698They can’t both be valid, you moron. One set of events happened conclusively, and the others didn’t. It’s that simple. Do you think it’s the game that Capcom is proud of, or the game they saw as an inferior product?
Having a blast with my second playthrough, found a very enjoyable balance.Insanity ModeLeon in Grace campaignMore enemy densityGameplay Tweaks & Adaptive Difficulty Lock (some values raised even beyond vanilla Insanity to compensate for Leon being op)RandomizerCapcom is retarded for not including something like that by default for consolefags.Obviously Leon is completely op compared to Grace and I know the layouts so the Care Center feels much faster paced, and with added enemies it's more action packed, but because of the randomizer the first hour's not a complete cakewalk, I kept getting random stuff instead of ammo.For some reason the randomizer came with a few... random quirks, maybe incompatibilities with the other mods, but it came out feeling interesting:>I'm not getting any Kill Points for killing enemies, but instead I keep finding Matildas that I can sell. That made the economy a lot more balanced and slower in the end because otherwise I would be having too many points.>It's not letting me purchase the silencer or any shotgun, lack of shotgun is both annoying and cool, handicap run, I end up relying on the rifle and magnum more instead>not letting me upgrade the rifle so I can't use the op bsaa charm
>>559972623The post in your image implies the main reason to release og versions is for nostalgia, but maybe Im just old, so I am not as turned away from dated games, but personally I like to play OG versions before playing remakes to try to get the same experience as long time fans. Thats not even mentioning the remakes I've played that didn't live up to the OGs I've played before hand. Its hard to trust remakes at this point, even if I didn't grow up with the originals.
>>559973024anon, even in the remake annette dies in nonsensically opposing ways, and just like in the OG trilogy era, there's no definitive answers for shit. in fact, the flashbacks of 9 literally just point at leon meeting marvin and kendo. in general these devs retcon so much shit and play loosey-goosey that there's no point getting held up about whether OG or Remake is canon at this point. this series has been metal gear'd in just evolving as it goes, and treating the remakes like new installments in their own right, but they will pull from what they feel is necessary for whatever they want to tell; the remakes are just only 6-7 years old and easier to pull from for relevant consistency.why do you think they aren't pulling from RE1 as much as possible, despite it having to be canon? if RE3 showed flashbacks to RE1 remake it would clash drastically.
>>559973024>One set of events happened conclusively, and the others didn’t.But they didn’t. The broad strokes happened the same way, like it or not. In the original and the remake, Racoon city was still nuked. In the original and the remake, Krauser still died. In the original and the remake, Wesker still got the Plaga. In the original and the remake, Nemesis still dies. It’s the stuff in between that’s inconsequential. It’s official that this is how it works and how it has it worked since the Chronicles games released and introduced the concept of retellings to the franchise and that’s final.
also forgot to add it skips all the filler scripted bs
>>559973227It’s like that because the B scenarios were literally slapped on with no regard, and only included because people begged for it. Conclusively, Leon A/Claire B is the new canon in this reboot timeline because Leon met Marvin, but the events of Claire B are just copy pasted from her A scenario, so we don’t know what happened with her.
>>559973371Emily...
>>559973259But they did. None of what you or Capcom say changes the proof in the games themselves. The fact of the matter is that after 6, they basically rebooted the franchise to fix all of the plot holes and inconsistencies that piled up over the years. 7 was a new introduction to this reboot, and basically served as a pseudo remake of 1 in various ways. All of the Remakes and numbered entries afterwards follow this new timeline set up by 7, while the originals are decanonized.
>>559973914>people complain for years about Leon vowing to take down Umbrella only for them to get off-screened>the remake specifically drops this plot thread completely Huh.
what are the chances of a "new" legacy game?in the way that RE9 follows up on the legacy story, maybe they could make something that takes place after RE1-4 that can be a new stand in for RE5/6something that involves Wesker and Jill and Chris but isn't Resident Evil 5
>>559973371Leon absorbing Emily like Nyx absorbed Tyrant R.
Do you have confidence that Capcom could make a good RE6 remake in the future?
>>559974682RE6R would actually be a lot of fun if it got the RE engine production bale 4R did.
Your head comes off?
Silent Hill (1999) mogs the Resident Evil franchise heavily tbqhwyf
>>559973914They don’t. 9 is the first game to even reference the remakes in any real capacity pretty sure. None of that changes that the games all functionally happen the same way minus minute details which again was also the entire point of the Chronicles games. If they were really a whole new rebooted universe they wouldn’t have constrained themselves to largely the same formulas as what happened in the originals.
>>559975594Yeah it's getting kind of annoying seeing people go "REBOOTED TIMELINE" when right now there's not much actually changed in the overall plot besides minute details. It's not like Yakuza completely rewriting the third game's ending for an alternate timeline, shit's just all the usual reimaginings and retcons because every director and every new face in RE wants to re-envision everything to what they want to set up. These games were already notoriously wonky dick shit, like Rebecca being AWOL for 21 years until a CGI movie finally brought her back, so everyone wasn't even sure what endings from RE1 were "canon" since nothing properly co-aligned any of them. Continuity has always been a disaster.
>>559975594Not quite. Mr. Raccoon might’ve appeared in Outbreak first, but his design going forward continues to that of his 2R design, so Village was the first one to feature content from the Remake timeline through the Trauma Pack.
>>559975836I’m saying that the rebooted timeline is set up to give everything a more coherent set of events and characters. Like Leon having a proper character arc instead of just changing his personality every time he shows up, getting rid of plot threads that ended up going nowhere, connecting things together like Luis creating Nemesis, and adding more depth to characters in general. Having the future entries in mind from the get go also helps significantly with all of that.
>>559975836>Continuity has always been a disaster.Since the second game too. While Marvin only mentions "Chris, Jill, Barry", the Stars room has Rebecca's desk, and a file confirms she survived, so since the second game there's an ending that is impossible to achieve. It's so silly that Wildstorm's RE comics poked fun at it around the time RE2 released.
>>559976663Hopefully the upcoming 0 and 1 remake can clarify this, and give a definitive answer for what really happened throughout the Mansion Incident, including how Barry and Rebecca survived. Hopefully they’ll also fix the continuity issues with 0 as well.
I’d kill for a world where we ended up getting the N64 version of RE0.
>>559976823I honestly have zero interest in Capcom trying to fix the continuity with more and more pointless remakes, specially since I'm not a fan of the post-RE7 character writing. There's a chance Billy will be interchangeable with Leon, who's already interchangeable with Chris, since Capcom is way too in love with "sad guy with PTSD".
>>559976823>remake 0 and 1 as one gigantic game since they're so damn close together to begin with in terms of structure and design elements>STILL don't decide a proper ending and don't merge Barry/Rebecca into the same existential timeline conclusion
>>559977187>remake 1>becca and barry are present in jill's route only>chris has to hoof it alone
>>559977040At least it would have better controls... RE0's controls are weirdly sloppy with the additional recovery frames some animations have. I do wonder if they had planned anything beyond the train and "Wesker's monster" though.
I wish there were sections with Gideon stalking Grace at some point, as per his Nemesis status.It almost feels like the devs were planning it and that one cutscene in the office almost seems to hint that, but then they realized that between the Chunk, the Girl, the Chef, Blisterheads and all those other zombies, that would've been too much.
>>559956845Blonde babies with Heather!~
>it's a resident evil 1 remake remake>they still use fixed camera angles and a mix of tank/modern controls instead of "updating" like the asinine complainers about "outdated mechanics" want, so it's basically an RE Engine refresh but with real time environments and new story design
Because I keep Leon's inventory throughout, I don't have any scope during this chapter and I'm low on rifle ammo, it's annoying. And now there are enemies up there too? Any idea if there's a mod that lets you spawn weapon/attachments?
>>559982358Is there a version where he's riding Ashley/Ada/Grace/Chris yet
>>559978532I was thinking that too, but I think they’re feeling the general stalker fatigue at this point and so decided not to bother this time around>>559978892Based.
>>559975836Exactly. Although I won’t say, it’s a “disaster”, more like the fine details have always been kind of left out for the sake of flexibility as someone else already pointed out, all the most important stuff is pretty clear or still *can* be clear with further games or even a simple exposition dump. >>559977150Billy is quite a bit more than that and always had a more self contained story that ended rather satisfyingly so as long as they, again, stick to the original, he’ll have little in common with anyone and come and go for his one time appearance. >>559976138I mean sure, but I don’t think I need to explain how inconsequential an Easter egg side quest like that is,
>>559976571leon’s character arc is consistent though. the remakes don’t do anything to change that, it’s just the same happy go lucky rookie > serious badass secret agent man. can’t say there’s been more depth added to anyone else off the top of my head either, if anything they just built off of the previous games like with where Chris is going now.
She won.
>>559977150Even though the continuity is fine
>>559971134That would make sense considering it’s completely absent from the original Japanese where he just says ‘big armed gorilla’ or something along those lines
RE9 killed us
>>559976571>>559987213Leon's new arc of RE:2>RE:4>9 is just another thing he's stealing from Chris with all the trauma and "this time things will be different" shit. I don't get why Capcom took a guy meant to be a very static heroic character (and yes, he was, Leon does not change throughout the duration of the original RE2, and his 'shift' from 2 to 4 was never that big) and made him into just Chris with one liners.
>>559975836>like Rebecca being AWOL for 21 years until a CGI movie finally brought her back, so everyone wasn't even sure what endings from RE1 were "canon" since nothing properly co-aligned any of them. Continuity has always been a disaster.I mean, we always knew Rebecca survived because all media assured that conclusion. A character doesn't need to continually come back for them to have survived, and this whole obsession I see fans have with "TRUE ENDING!!!" for 1 and 2 is just odd to me. Generally, if a game has multiple equally valuable endings, the game's sequel will be to all of them, like how Deus Ex Invisible War is a sequel to every ending from the original Deus Ex. That doesn't mean we didn't see the real ending of the game, it just means the sequel is expecting you to have played the entire prior game to completion. Anyways, the remakes have only introduced more continuity issues. People get up in arms about minor shit in the originals to justify the remake changes, and then act like completely retconning Operation Javier or Claire's ending in 2 being the polar opposite from how her story originally ended there isn't causing major issues. The remakes also (rather infamously) have major continuity issues with themselves, let alone the fact that they contradict pretty much every spinoff they come into contact with.People will bring up how Chronicles changed things, but Chronicles explicitly labels the retellings as just that, retellings from one character to another. TUC is basically an extended Wesker's Report 3 while TDC is Leon reminiscing during a mission. Hell, the remakes even change the overall cause of the outbreak and the entire geography of the city, which I'd say is a far bigger "continuity issue", especially when RE9 uses Outbreak characters.
The Resident Evil universe is like a comicbook. Characters can be different and stories can be changed one to the next.

>>559987213He goes from complete dumbass, to goofy quipster, to depressed and serious throughout all his number entries in the original. It’s not consistent at all.
>>559991169Calling Chris a gorilla is basically the Japanese version of calling Chris a boulder puncher. They like to say he’s built like a gorilla, and call him Goris.

>>560016086Okay I'm getting my groove back on, yeah I'm an fps player that exclusively plays with m&k and the enemies just melt but it's a part where you get swarmed and hit with xbows. Is the pistol with the stock good? I seem to have upgraded it
>>560016347Red9 with the stock is very powerful
>>560015775Is Kamiya a bitch, or is 9 really that scary?
>>560016441It's looking pretty rough so far, I'm down to knives
>>560016441Blacktail is better. Smallest gun in the game, but it does great damage, has high accuracy, and a high rate of fire that makes it the best DPS pistol in the game next to the Matilda. The Red9 might do more damage per shot, but it takes up a lot of space, is slow to fire, and needs the stock to be decent, which will take up even more space in your inventory.
Will Claire look more like or old designs or will her new face be used?
>>560018359She should look hotAll remakes are definitive versions so she needs to be hot
>>560018359She's just gonna look exactly like her design from the other remake.
>>560019734Not necessarily. It’s okay for the women to be ugly goblinas.
>>559986063>Billy is quite a bit more than thatHe is, but Capcom exaggerated Leon's trauma (Which didn't exist until RE6) until it overtook 80% of his personality, and the same was done with Chris. Billy has some PTSD so I expect Capcom to exaggerate it to that point too if we're getting a RE0 remake.>>559999582>and then act like completely retconning Operation JavierI've talked with someone defending it as it being just a reference to DC, but that was clearly someone who doesn't know what happened in Operation Javier, because from just a few lines you can tell it has nothing to do with the original.>Leon wasn't there>Krauser had a squad that the government killed>Government killing Krauser's squad is what made him obsessed with power>Last bit may mean there was no Manuela or T-VeronicaI can never understand why they referenced it and changed everything about it...>Hell, the remakes even change the overall cause of the outbreak and the entire geography of the city, which I'd say is a far bigger "continuity issue", especially when RE9 uses Outbreak characters.REO always had iffy continuity with the main games, specially with anything RPD (But then again, RE3's RPD has continuity issues with RE2's). Remakes only made them worse of course...
>>560002483It is. The goofy quipster thing in 4 for example is actually something exclusive to the localization. In the Japanese version he’s just a straight edge guy. And even then you’d be able to rationalize that as him using humor as coping mechanism for his trauma.
>>560016681I mean it does get kind of intense, but I’m kind of a bitch and even I managed to finish it, so it’s a skill issue
>>559999582> and then act like completely retconning Operation Javier or Claire's ending in 2 being the polar opposite from how her story originally ended there isn't causing major issues. The remakes also (rather infamously) have major continuity issues with themselves, let alone the fact that they contradict pretty much every spinoff they come into contact with.Which is why trying to head canon the remakes into retcons and not retellings is silly. You ironically dig yourself into way more of a hole doing that.
>>560022057I don’t think it’s fair to say they exaggerated it, it’s obviously there but it only got worse in 6 and Vendetta because of the events that transpired in them. Same with Chris. Billy’s main thing is that he’s a fugitive on death row framed for something he didn’t do and gets set free by Rebecca at the end of it all. No need to fixate on trauma that he has especially when he won’t be showing up again.
>>560021057I think she's really cute, round babyfaceIf you saw her at the bar, you'd think she was hot
>effortlessly mogs Ashley and Rebecca
>>560022949>Which is why trying to head canon the remakes into retcons and not retellings is silly.That's not really a headcanon when RE9 has the orphanage, Sherry saying she'd been there, Leon doesn't have his cut from RE4 anymore, Leon's carrying on his character arc from the remakes, etc.The idea that they are retellings is the headcanon. Capcom has always placed them in canon, and RE9 shows that they are now defacto canon.
>>560023471Don’t project your shit taste onto me.
>>560022098It isn’t. It’s completely schizophrenic characterization because every game is made by a different team.

Runaway, violin prodigy Michel, uncovers the tragic story of a cursed manor.
>>560023867Capcom has stated they’re retellings. What you’re seeing is them using the most recent versions of events because that’s what people are going to remember. That’s all it is.
>Yahtzee is making fun of Grace.That's so mean of him.
>>560026681>Capcom has stated they’re retellings.No they haven't. They said they're equally as canon as the originals at best.>What you’re seeing is them using the most recent versions of events because that’s what people are going to remember.So they do, in fact, go beyond retellings and into being defacto canon. There's a line between "using the most recent version" and having Sherry specifically recall and talk about events that only exist in the remake continuity, events which happened in places that only exist in the remake continuity and have no place in any prior iteration.

He’s also supposed to have a new experimental Power Limiter coat, that can both maximize his movement so he can run, but still protect him as much as possible, and limit his mutations so he doesn’t go completely berserk off the bat.
>>560027592Then they’re lying, and you’re falling for their lies.
>>560023296Yeah and the remakes picked the trauma he had in those games and exaggerated for past stories too, which heavily changed Leon as someone who mostly moved on from RC's events (RE4) to someone who's so plagued by his regrets he didn't move on at all and seemingly still has nightmares about it (RER4). So I'd call that an exaggeration, as even RE6 Leon's trauma wasn't this bad.>Billy’s main thing is that he’s a fugitive on death row framed for something he didn’t do and gets set free by Rebecca at the end of it all. No need to fixate on trauma that he has especially when he won’t be showing up again.If they don't fixate on his trauma then that could be nice, but I'll keep the possibility in mind after what they did to Leon and Chris. I still won't expect much of a remake Billy, but he's also one of my favorite characters, who really should never come back.>>560024268I wish, but a file describes the events like Leon wasn't part of it.https://residentevil.fandom.com/wiki/%E2%96%88%E2%96%88%E2%96%88%E2%96%88%E2%96%88_Case_File>Apparently, the entire unit was wiped out except for the commanding officer, Major . And not by the cartels, but by the US.The file also describes the events without mentioning T-Veronica as well. This all could be chalked up to the reporter having incomplete information, but it's odd for him to only learn of one survivor when there were two, and Krauser at the time had a higher position than Leon. Krauser himself also talks like the government killing his team is what made him obsessed with power, so that may mean Manuela is gone too, or at least, she was around, had T-Veronica, but didn't cause Krauser to seek another way of getting power.

>>560024268>>560028728If you actually watch the cutscenes, Leon's pre-4 training was in a jungle of some variety. There's also no real point to heavily retcon the entirety of Operation Javier to the point it's unrecognizable compared to Darkside if you're also going to have a character make vague allusions to it. Current RE is for new players. There's no reason why they'd do that. The clear connection a new player would draw is to the brief Leon flashbacks rather to a file that has nothing to do with Leon, and which Leon makes no remarks on despite how talkative he usually is.
>>560028728That file was written from the perspective of a journalist who was trying to piece together the truth, but got killed before he could. Notice the language used throughout it. "I don't know" "Rumors say" and "we may never know thetruth".
>>560027592> They said they're equally as canon as the originals at best.That’s what I mean yes, I.e. they’re functionally retellings not meant to replace anythingThe Sherry thing is strange I’ll admit but until they come outright and say that the originals have been decanonized the safest bet is to just operate as though they happened unless we see otherwise like in the Sherry instance.
>>560029489I’m merely looking at what’s actually in the games themselves. You should try as well instead of taking Capcom’s words after the fact as gospel.
>>560030097>That’s what I mean yes, I.e. they’re functionally retellings not meant to replace anythingUntil RE9 came out and asserted only the remake versions of everything and had nothing of note from the original.They only said "everything is canon" in case the remake project failed. It didn't, and now Capcom has four or five more in the pipeline, so they're going full steam ahead and fully rebooting RE, with the remakes taking precedence in the newer games. >>560030152And what's in RE9 is the remakes. Not the originals.
here's the end-all argument for RE canon:it uh, doesn't matter honestlylike they'll reference the jill sandwich line in REv2 but not in the JP dub, they LOVE referencing rita from outbreak, the lab was renamed into hive because of the RE movie, resistance had a dozen outbreak references, and at the end of day, RE1 and 2 don't canonically make sense with the way they played no matter how you look at it, 1 especially since people assumed rebecca was fucking dead since barry showed up in RE3's best ending
>>560030097I’m pretty sure they’re decanonized. It’s pretty clear that’s the case after 9, especially with remorseful Spencer being a far cry from his appearance in 5.
>>560026540I've just added Chloé’s Requiem to the rentry.
>>560029445>buzzword buzzword buzzword>trolling outside of /b/How marvelous
>>560030493Spencer was on deaths door and said and did stuff out of anger and paranoia, I still don’t think what we see him do and say in 9 is that big a departure especially when you take into account he likely made Elpis to spite his competitors who he likely knew were setting him up.
>>560030857>I still don’t think what we see him do and say in 9 is that big a departure especially when you take into account he likely made Elpis to spite his competitors who he likely knew were setting him up.This is a big pile of headcanon, but at the time Spencer would've been interviewed, he was sending thousands of people to Alex, and elpis was in development since the 1980s according to the ending file, which is in contention with his end desire of wanting a 100% infection rate.It all just makes him look indecisive and whiny, and this whole delusion that he had "good intentions" that RE9 asserts is in direct contention with literally everything that has ever been stated about him in any piece of RE media ever released.
>>560030454But the best ending is the one where Jill and Carlos leave together in their own helicopter.
>>560030252>>560030493So then why not just say “hey, these games are the new deal, ignore everything that happened in the old ones and focus only on these ones”? It would bring even greater buzz to the remakes and likely be the nail in the coffin to people longing for everything to be up to par with the originals. It seems to me like they want to keep some options open and not just burn that bridge.
>searching funny gifs>Leon x James ship art appearsuuuhh... thanks tenor?
>>560031324Because Capcom isn't entirely retarded and knows a statement like that would get bad press because "muh games are art" is a big deal again. The exec who said the originals are worthless when the remakes exist a few months back was saying what Capcom actually thinks though.
>>560030779Appreciate it a lot.
>>560031092I disagree for reasons outlined in the last thread >>560031092 >>559937043 it’s not so much as him having good intentions but him wanting some kind of redemption, indecisive is a good word for him, it’s a character flaw that shows him wavering because despite his own desires and goals on some level he knows what he wants is impossible
>>560031953Except again, this is inconsistent with literally everything we had ever seen of Spencer and only makes sense if you purposefully ignore large swathes of his character and assert that, in his only on screen appearance before RE9, he had gone senile.
>>560027667Well, I searched for a Resident Evil General while playing Requiem and got this place, so here I talk about RE.
I fixed AshleyThey're white fyi
WHY DID THEY MAKE GRACE SO FUCKING CUTE I CAN'T FUCKING FOCUS
>>560032302
>>560031873Well I mean they can’t have their cake and eat it too, so that’s what it’s going to take to render their own statement on the subject bunk at this point because people are just going to default to route A route B thinking until they’re given reason to do otherwise
>>560032990I use the classic haircut mod too
>>560033681Oh...oh my...
>>560033456>grace stuttering
>>560033791Really goes to show you that there are some things that shouldn't be changedThey didn't change Leons hair, why change Ashleys? Her big ears being visible are a major part of her character design
>>560034160>They didn't change Leons hairThey kinda did
>>560034437Not really no
>people will actually dismiss any claims you might have with 3make if you bring up jill's skorts, her westernized tanktop+jeans slop-combo, or the complete and total lack of alt costumeswild
WEEEEEEEEELLWhat's next for Dead Rising?
>>560028435Let's not pretend that the last two mainline RE games weren't complete dogshit.

>>560028728I mean I guess I can’t fault you for being cautious but I just don’t see the incentive for that kind of treatment especially when iirc Billy seems relatively unbothered and playing it cool about his whole situation but let’s hope for the best I guess
>>560034993No. It's just a little longer. Enough with the argumentative BS fag
>>560034993>>560036873How do I ask for this cut (I'm serious), I have thick blond hair just like him.
>>560037180Just show them a picture of 90's Dicaprio, like Jack from Titanic

>>560036873>just a little longerSo they kinda changed it, just like I said
>replay RE4R after putting 50 hours into Requiem>constantly stressed out by my ammo count and how fast overweight Spaniards can runI don't remember feeling like this on my first playthrough at all
>>560037515Silent Hill soundtrack is so fucking good...
>>560027667I'm feeling too lazy to finish my playthrough of Mystic Nights right now...
>reinstall RE2R, first time since RTX update>spend 30 minutes trying to get claire nude mod to work to no availsigh...
>>560038504But her butt looks really good in her tight jeans already...
>>560031092Which is why they’re decanonizing that stuff. The future 5R will tell for sure if Spencer was still working with Alex, since they’ve already changed various things throughout the remakes and 9. I think we’re meant to take his remorse at face value in 9, since there’s nothing to indicate he’s not being genuine with it in game, just past titles that Capcom view as inferior products, and will be rewritten and remade in the foreseeable future.
>>560037360Funny, but it is kinda bullshit how it starts doing donuts
>>560031953I think it’s telling that he named his daughter Grace. Out of all the names he could’ve chosen, he chose to name her after the undeserved mercy and love that God offers towards sinners that transforms them into better people.
>>560038504they don't work with rtx on
>>560033983Emily wants uppies.
>>560034774A pc patch that fixes the stupid gamepad bug for 2
>>560038589I don’t get why people insist on visual mods when RE girls are all basically supermodels by default
>>560040824because some people don't want to see jeans and tanktops
>>560040984I do
>>560039437they are supposed to but none of them do
>>560037979It's kind of hilarious how difficult 4R is, people were saying it at launch but now with Requiem being so easy outside of Insanity it makes 4R a real dick puncher until you absolutely know what you're doing.
>>560031324For the same reason they don't just say "Leon is married to X" or "HUNK is actually dead/alive"Are you underage or something that you don't know how the world works?
>>560040824Bro SHUT UP!
>>560037360>unc momentuncbros.........
>>560042135Leon should just breed Ashley right then and there. It could be their final night together, and the best part? Saddler HAS to wait 9 months to do anything with her.
>>560042264Who's to say las plagas doesn't sterilise its hosts?
Whenever I travel empty sewer tunnels with Leon I feel dread and lonelinessIs it just me?
>>560042068That’s not the same thing at all. Why are you so personally upset about this? Relax
>>560042530It is the same thing and now you're pivoting to "trolling" because you got caught being retarded.Stay retarded.
>>560042264>what are we going to do in this little tucked away corner with just a chair, Leon
>>560042829I want to nibble on her ear...
>>560042938She is so much god damn cuter with this classic haircut
>>560040824Because the faces are often fucked up, and the jeans and tank tops are boring and repetitive.
>>560043005She looks like she has a worm in her nervous system
>>560043091You fucked up my face
>>560043194Don't worry, she's cool
>>560042692>thread shitting /v/ tourist can’t even keep up the facade of pretending to be interested in a conversation for 3 posts>itz da same because i said soPottery. At least you cut it short and saved my time.
>>560043828You're really bad at this. Keep seething and being retarded.
>>560035490Didn’t she also have a bad interview like nu-Jill’s VA, where she said that her Ada is better than the original?
>>560043828please just ignore him you already accurately called out his gimmick he’s just looking to stir shit up
>>560043943Yes.>It is time we stop only capitalising on the sexualised, eroticised, and mysterious Asian woman, and make space to honour every kind of Asian woman>My Ada is a survivor. She is kind, just, intelligent, and funny. She is unpredictable, resilient, and absolutely not a stereotype.
>>560043828We’ll be dealing with a lot of argumentative trolls for at least the new few weeks. Happens all the time after a major release. Happened with SHF too.
>>560043780I dunno, anon...While the human nervous system is already kinda worm-like, having a worm wrapped around it doesn't sound like it's good for her health ;_;
>>560044203Nah man we're getting that taken care of, no worries
>>560028506Good to know. There’s probably some other decision for it in universe but I’ll be damned if I can remember what it was: >>560029730>>560029910Good to know too.
>>560044143What a cunt.
>>560044414KISS KISS KISS MWAH MWAH MWAH CHU CHU CHU ASHLEY CHEEKS!!!!!!
>>560044414I hope (You) don't have a worm inside you too. If that is the case, you might end up crawling up on a leaf to get eaten by a bird so the worm can enter the bird
>>560044143>>560043943>>560044491don’t forget when she called everyone racist after being criticized and then deleting/privating all her social media. whole thing was just a mess that could have been avoided.
She knows I can...uh...nevermind.
>>560044751You can win the arcade shooting game, Leon! We believe in you!
>>560044414Her hair looks like garbage so this is actually more fitting than the default somehow-immaculate hair she has
>>560044470It’s just there for idiots that would complain that he’s too strong, and because otherwise they wouldn’t know where to shoot. Even the OG Super Tyrant didn’t have an exposed heart, because that was a defect from the Prototype Tyrants that was fixed in universe with the T-103 line.
>>560044876The modder tried their best
>>560044827Yatta!
>>560044651Whole thing could’ve been avoided if Capcom didn’t listen to American retards who probably insisted that Ada needed a real Chinese VA to avoid racism accusations, and just kept Jolene Andersen for no reason. She didn’t even join a Union like so many people peddled back in the day. That was Courtenay Taylor, Ada’s RE6 VA, so there was likely no other reason for her getting axed than her not being a real Chinese woman.
>>560045278That and that Jill hair mod look way too rigid, like they both have 2lbs of pomade solidified in their hair
>Saddler is a bioterrorist cult leader who doesn't believe in his parasite-based message and has just set up the entire thing to become rich and influential>Saddler is a bioterrorist cult leader who believes in his parasite-based messageWhich do you prefer?
>>560043943>like nu-Jill's VANicole Tompkins hasn't done anything wrong you're just making shit up
Surprised there isn't a Lady HUNK over Grace mod already.
>>560045530Saddler is small time so who cares
>>560045530The original. It plays more into the idea that the real villains of the setting are corporate elites who get rich and powerful through making other people suffer.
thoughts on echoes of the living? its still in early access and it looks so derivative its off putting
>>560045760I don't know about it but I'm guessing by the name that it's a fixed-camera game with a very washed out color palette trying to evoke PS2 era RE nostalgia
>>560045530I liked both. I think there was a real implication that Saddler was just a puppet of the Plaga at that point and just using philosophy to help itself propagate like any other organism which I really like. Especially the lines about it bringing world peace eventually.
>>560045598There is Sherry, Jill, Emily and Alyssa, at least.
I don't like Re5's blonde Jill...
>>560045760I just can't. I just fucking cant. Tried tormented souls and its so much worse than RE. Its like playing bad souls clones when I could just replay souls games
>>560046140I like Revelations!JillMichelle Ruff has a really attractive voice
>>560045569She literally said that Carols was "mansplaining" to Jill in an interview.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=igrPsalkBaA&feature=youtu.be&t=585
>>560045498You try to do the modeling and rig the physics all by yourself in a custom game engineIt's fan work, not paid work
>>560046295I don't know who Carol is but it was literally a joke and it never made any goddamn sense anyway to have someone explaining a radio to someone who is very visibly law enforcement
these extra modes in RE2REmake are not fun
>>560046514The Hunk one is alright since it's literally just "you're a one man army now do the game backwards really fast", the other ones are shit
>>560046436I meant Carlos. The guy she’s consistently a cunt towards despite him literally saving her life, and being nothing but kind and helpful towards her. I know you get caught up on typos because you have no argument, but at least try.
>>560042068leon is married to HUNK
Was RE3 og really that bad
>>560046879chrisbros... not like this..
>>560046202I think I will try tormented souls today instead but yeah getting mixed vibes from that one tooalisa was fantastic, crow country was pretty good, if you want good indie clones
Reminder that they won.
>>560047149emphasis on they
>>560046780I know you haven't even played the game at all so have no idea what you're talking about, but she's only rude to him in the opening sequence, once she knows that him and Mikhail are just trying to get people out of the city she's cool with them.
>>560046140Bad taste. That’s her best version. Wish they kept it.
>>560047243we're all gonna make it and get a loliwife bros
>>560046630I'm not even a fan of that one. I don't like having limited supplies
finally a steam review that understands this
>>560047506AI generated
You guys....
>>560047693it really is impressive how much work your hair does framing your face, her head looks weird here without any hair on her left
>>560047693I'm going to lewd Ashley.
>>560047921We know Leon, you obviously put a ring on it since there's no other real option
>>560047149>almost 3 decades later
>>560047860That's not how that works. That's not how any of this worksHer hair in the remake looks like a fucking wig and it doesn't "frame her face", it covers up her big ears which is a crime against humanity
>>560047308first off you're wrong, and second we ha literally NEVER seen jill after re5, we don't know what she looks like or what she's even doing.
>>560048057I still think Leon should've had a child to Ashley as well as this.
>>560048003>>560048474No way fag
>>560048569I understand now why Leon said this.
>>560047306I did play it, so stop with your cope. Jill was fundamentally unlikable throughout the game, and Demake ruined her characterization from the originals. I know you’re upset because your favorite game is objectively garbage, but I don’t care. Shill it elsewhere.
>no classic proper button layout for 0, you always gotta have run on the B / Circle button>no full screen resolution beyond 1080p for HDFuckin hell.
>>560049021just wait for the RE Engine Remake
>>560047243Reminder that Claire abandoned Leon and Sherry on the side of the road, while Leon gave up his freedom for the sake of protecting her.

>>560048902NTA but you are genuinely awful to discuss with mate, you're always wound up about something shitposting from an iPhone. I think you're the person who should go elsewhere, maybe /v/>>560049682Buddy just say you refuse to understand what's actually being said. She's supposed to be showing her ears. Ashleys real haircut doesn't "frame her face" in the original because she's not a Asian/Japanese girl who needs a set of curtains on her face to cover up her gigantic skull
>>560050087there's nowhere near enough hair on her scalp, she looks like she's bald wearing a badly styled wig
>>560049852i mean in the old canon: we haven't seen jill after re5, all we have is remakes
>>560050231The only wig to be seen is nuAshley, friend. Stop shitposting
>>560050427eww
>>560050087You’re the only annoying one here, moron. Sorry if I hurt your feelings by not playing nice with your dumbass, but you need to get thicker skin or get out.
>>560050453okay dumbass
>>560050252We’ve seen her in Death Island which takes place after RE5. She looks the same as RE3 Remake self.
Plagas good actually. Getting out of bed is hard. Work is hard. Worm moving body makes it all so easy. No need to worry or stress about anything since the worm makes you do it super easy style.

>>560051443Raid>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Mercenaries
>>560051234Truth.
>>560051252It is canon. But yes we haven’t seen her in the games since 5.
>>560051443This should be the announced RE9 minigame instead of Mercenaries
I don't really like nuJill at all but I'll accept her for what she is all the same, just another iteration of the character. She's not for me but she's not bad eitherI don't really like nuAshley but I accept her too. I like her personality more than in the original, but not the creative liberties they took with her character design
>>560051368I like the way she looked in REmake/5/REvI like her big nose in 5/REv
Holy fuck this game is gorgeous
>>560051960It's a different tone in the remakes. Jill felt borderline retarded in the original asking so many obvious questions (a problem she also had in 1 but everyone in that game was borderline retarded). It's literally just the age old Adachi of "a good X but not a good Y" with every Remake. None of them replace their originals at all.
>>560052158It's like poetry, they rhyme

Is it true RE9 is like 6, but on steroids?
>>560053716It's basically a structured Mercenaries. Even when you revisit the same maps you'll get new enemy layouts, you level characters so you've got a forward progression system instead of strict one-off arcade score attack runs, and shit keeps escalating the further you get in. The fact that it's locked to the Revelations games and was never tried again is a genuine screw up.
>>560053825no because the combat isn't as fun as 6

I’ve officially found the worst headline of all time thanks to 9.https://kotaku.com/leon-kennedy-resident-evil-requiem-hot-thirst-trap-2000673666
>>560066547>gays can say "I'm on HIV meds and I want this video game character to split my ass in half" and publish it on one of the biggest video game news sites>I can't say "I want sherry birkin in ALL of her appearances to swap between letting me use them as a urinal and using my face as a chair" without getting weird looks
>>560066547>kotaku making shit articlesshocking
what was the code for the 2f safe in grace's segment? i just couldn't find it
>>560068129I honestly prefer this version of sadler
I feel like the mechanics and the scrapped co-op portion of RE9 pretty much confirms they're remaking RE5 next
>>560069186and REmake Remakeand RE3 Remake remake
>>560069413Revelations 3 with adult Natalia and Ojisan Jake exploring a modified C-Virus strain used to somehow Wesker returned whit DC Dogs being all>*pant, pant... pant*>To grow enough to reach the GODS,>*PANT*>YOU HAVE TO STRETCH YOUR ROOTS TO HELL!!!
>>560069186What about the Crimson Head mechanic along with a lighter model they can reuse, or the zombies using weapons like in 6?
i hate how headsots have been useless since re2r, the zombie just ignores it and speeds up to bite
>>560072163The blister heads are a nothingburger in 9. You can leave 90% of zombies on the floor and they wont turn into blister heads because its all scripted bullshit.
>>560072896>Literally ALL zombie media teaches people "aim for the head">Resident Evil teaches you to blow their legs off and run past because they can take 20 headshots
>>560073257unironically, cause leon at least gets a melee attack if they kneel
>>560072896I mean even in the original classic games you did headshots with power weapons like shotguns and magnums. It was largely the action era of 4-6 that encouraged headshots for staggers, and even then it rarely insta-killed. This has never been a zombie headshot series first and foremost.
>>560072896They don’t ignore magnum or point black shotgun or head shots. If you expect the pistol to suffice for all situations, you’re playing the game wrong. The pistol is for stunning or crippling zombies by shooting off their limbs. You should be saving ammo for boss fights, and not wasting them on trash mobs.
gonna be waiting for More Enemies to complete before i make a final playthrough for a while, but it's amusing seeing the modding stuff shoot up so fast
for my second playthrough i set grace to 3rd person and i really just don't feel the same tension, gonna keep it that way though i can't get enough of the lady d waistline...
>>560072998The point is that it’s there, and there are still quite a few that will become Blister Heads if you just go around shooting without a care, and they’re really bad for Grace because her only real options are are stunning them for a Hemo, which will still take a big chunk of ammo, or wasting a Requiem bullet that could’ve been used elsewhere. They can obviously tune this mechanic to better fit the Crimson Heads later on.
>>5600728962R wants you to engage in the dismemberment mechanic, so engage with it. Also keep in mind that the better you’re doing, the harder the game will become.https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1759950592
>>5600728962R had the most useless headshots in the enitre series. Not only do they take 10 fucking bullets to put down, but they also only have 1 headshot stagger animation. So you just shoot them in the head and leave your crosshair where it is and as soon as they recover from their stagger youre already lined up to restagger them. It turns each zombie into a 3minute long chore of a snoozefest. Say what you want about 3R(it was also abysmal dogshit), but at least the gameplay was actually fun.
>>560074802I think you’re vastly exaggerating. While the pistol is designed to be on the weaker side before the upgrades, it still has its uses. As stated before, its primary use is for stunning or crippling zombies, but it can still be be effective in other situation, like dealing with the dogs, popping Ivy bulbs, and just getting precise shots from far away. Leon’s VP70 can become an SMG with how much DPS it can deal, while Claire’s Browning comes with a laser sight and higher damage per shot. If you’re having trouble killing zombies, either use the pistol to knock them down so you can finish them off with a knife, or use the Shotgun, Grenade Launcher, Magnum, or other higher damage weapons you can get through the game.
Thoughts?
>>560076018>>560076420Selena!
>>560076484Retarded, much like the rest of 6.
>>560072163they wouldn't remake 6 before 5 anyway
>>560076484Is Bioterrorism just small time in RE now?
do i lose all of my weapons and upgrades in 9 every time i start a new playthrough? that's some bullshit
>>560076484wake me up when we get actually ayylmaos in RE
>>560074802Go play ORC, then tell me how much the 2R zombies suck.
>>560077054yesI feel RE9 needs a proper ng+ to be jonest
>>560077054Yes, but you get the tracker off the bat as Leon, and can modify it through the Content Shop to give you more credits per kill. They’ll also spawn in more trackers and boxes across the earlier portions of the game, so you can buy back those weapons easily. It also incentivizes you to keep zombies alive before going into the basement as Grace, since Leon can clean up and get a huge pay out from it.
so Nemesis is Tyrant + Lisa?
Why are none of the other RE games on sale rn. I want to play them
>>560077951Isn’t everything like $20 pre 2 remake?
>>560077951same, there's nothing else to look forward rn
>>560078065You mean individually? Yeah>>560078091Guess we'll have to wait for a spring sale. Maybe I'll grab dead space in the mean time
>>560076484Cool concept
I'm enjoying tormented souls as derivative as it is of every single survival horror cliche but man the combat is awful
>bought re0 to finish my collection on steam>it's poopoowell that's on me, at least i got it for $5
>>560064475hardest room in the remake for me by faralso a the pain in the ass the optional second time
>>560074209did you play the last build? I saw he started doing raccoon city but the version I played yesterday had no changes in the basement, I stopped at the sniper chapter. He should go crazy and add lickers and blister elites in every level.
>>559982387That looks like fun but also really frustrating
>less than 10% of people who have played 1R have beaten it with both charactershow
>>560062376… we can only hope>>560063167pretty decently fast since on the whole the stuff you encounter there is pretty tame compared to what he faced in the VillageIt kind of depends if he’s given the same weapons or not
>>560080775>play game>pick character>beat game>the endPeople probably don't know about the differences

>>560082075I wasn't sure how to feel at first when they changed his very first line of dialogue but they did a great job overall
>>560067383>>560066816trvke……>>560069868nah the clone thing showed they’re above that at this pointi do want it to focus on the robotic virus that happened in the gacha series though since it was actually kinda interesting
>>560073257RE setting itself apart from the mainstream yet again! The king knows best!
>>560082075He truly was Don Quixote de La Mancha…
>>560074231understandable. it is a nice thing to look at.>>560074583huh. didn’t actually know this. this would explain a lot about my own playthrough….
>>560076484He was cool. Loved his design. Wish we got to see him in his fully transformed state. Piers nuking him with his electric trident arm was one of the best parts of the game despite its absurdity.
>>560082776They’ve been using the adaptive difficulty system for a while now ever since RE4.
>>560078975Let’s hope the remake does it justice and gives us a good game>>560077445Keeping the zombies alive seems really difficult though
>>560081997>>560081856Yeah this area was great. Probably not a popular sentiment but on the whole I felt they did the island section better than the original.
>Dead Space 08 and remake are on sale>start with 08 cause I want to experience the original>literally can't get it to launch>start the remake >bombarded with stutters no matter how low I put the graphic settingsBack to Requiem I guess
>>560082075Good song.
>>560082075i used to play this song in my old school flute
>>560083309Honestly it's tiring to see people disregard or throw hissy fits about 4R existing, it ain't perfect but it does some things really well. And as someone who didn't get to play OG 4 until well after his introduction to the series, I feel like some weird alien that thinks OG 4 is just okay and not some god's gift to mankind, so I guess I have an opportunity to see both versions for faults and peaks.
>>560082075The Hero suit looks way better on Luis than Leon.
>>560083428The Remake is unoptimized garbage that still has various bugs to this day. I’d stay far away from it.
>>560081997You can shoot the lights out.
where the fuck is the first gun on insanity mode? why won't those fucking cunts let me efend myself?
>>560083428>>560083691Works fine for me. I think k the only bug I encountered was when an enemy was trapped in the middle of a hallway just standing there and I couldn’t get past him. I think I just reloaded the game and it was fine after.
>>560083206It’s not that difficult. Most encounters have their own tricks to maneuver around them, and others can be stunned and pushed over.
imagine being a goomba ganado and watching your best friend get absolute obliterated and shit tossed by some pretty boy
>>560083950I ran into multiple audio logs playing at random, and the game thinking I was still running out of oxygen despite being back in the ship. If the devs didn’t care enough to find and fix this shit, then I don’t care enough to finish the game. Not that I should’ve expected much from the people behind Mass Effect Andromeda.
¡¡¡A CUBIERTOOOOOO!!!
>>560083985My issue is when I end up having to backtrack for something and i inevitably get overwhelmed and because I forget about ones that I haven’t taken out. Idk. Maybe I just haven’t tried hard enough because my peace of mind compels me to kill them.
>>560084786I only ever killed the two surgeon zombies near the organless corpse, and the three zombies on the way to the stairs that lead to Tom the Chunk.
>>560084162Weird. I played through it on the PS5, so maybe that has something to do with it. I guess it’s not too surprising since from what I understand Motive pretty much got to working on the Iron Man game directly after it released.
>>560085220It also led to the cancellation of a Dead Space 2 remake because it undersold.
>>560085432It's EA, if it didn't made 1 trillion dollars it "undersold"
>>560085432No, they just said that a second remake wasn’t currently in the making. It’s possible they do get around to making it in the future. Probably not though.
>>560039347Yeah the whole Pandora’s Box/Hope theming is something I’m pretty fond of. Just subtle enough for you to put 2 and 2 together once you realize the meanings. >>560039479>>560033983Cute…
>>560025825cunny grace…
>>560028987More re2 sherry pls….
>>560042743Strange, but I like it!
>>560086694Sherry!
>>560028987This thing is a beast in Rev1
>>560047243>>560047149>>560047329>>560048057>>560048721>>560049150Not a coincidence that both games did so well…
>>560085976Agreed. I think Nakanishi learned his lesson after brutally beating people over the head with Dante’s Inferno references despite them not really fitting that much into the story.
>>560053847Huh. It does sound fun but it’s kind of hard for me to envision. Maybe I should finally give the Revelations games another go. I got kind of turned off by them due to the weird controls.
>>560072998Speaking as someone who did kill pretty much all of them there were a definitely a few that weren’t scripted. Or they definitely didn’t feel like they were.
>>560086812Best girl…
>>560076018Absolute cinema
>>560083489I'm a Zoomer and don't have the nostalgia goggles like most, too. I think both are good in their own respects but I much prefer the gameplay of 4r. However the art and atmosphere of og 4 is unrivaled.
>>560064984>>560066094this feels like OC this place would make…
I'm getting less annoyed with the combat but now I'm stuck on the annoying point and click puzzle logic spent 30 minutes running in circles searching where to put a thing on a thing, but man I missed good fixed angle and tank controls kino it's good to be back to the classic gameplay after playing nothing but RE4-influenced TPS gameplay lately
good gameplay

That stupid credits song from Rewuirm can't leave my head. It's not even all that good and I don't even like it all that much, but for some reason I keep humming it. Capcom black magic.

>>560065128bruh...

>>560091105IMO, it lacks a good drop. The beginning with that cool beat and the first verse is really good a building up the momentum and you are expecting some sweet drop for the main chorus... and it never happens. As a result, the song sounds very flat.
>want to use custom hair mods>but because all the focus went into their hair strand tech shit, normal hair looks like absolute trash and unfinished puke because it simply doesn't get any baked lighting correctly anymore compared to older RE Engine games
Iron Maiden is nowhere near as scary as the segment was when I was a kidbut still really cool

totally maxed out knifelet's go Major
I wish I liked Resident Evil 4:(
>>560093110How do you not?!
>>560093148I dunno. It's a fun game, but I always get bored with it very quickly. I prefer to slower, more methodical gameplay of 1-3 or even the RE2 remake. Something about progression in those games, when the haunted mansion begins to open up, feels satisfying to me and RE4 lacks that.
>>560092771>>560092896"She's not like other girls"
>>560093967>tfw no egirl Aryan gf
cinema
no spoilers, how fucking good is RE9 really? even my hipster friends are gassing it up, i thought RE2R is the pinnacle of modern survival horror games
>>560094635It's good. Certainly overhyped. Lacking content and the quality is all over the place after the first few hours.t. Finished it
>>56009463510/10It's got the best parts of all previous mainline RE games
>>560081462>Weren’t most of those redundant?No, Chris/Sheva/Wesker/Jill had alt costumes with different loadouts but Rebecca/Josh/Excella/Barry were all entirely unique with melee moves varying in speed and damage
>>560094063sloppy!
they're gonna take the egirl gf and make her "tradcath" (sex cultist)
>>560094890Nyooooo!!!!
>>560094635there are 2 characters one of them plays like a re2r campaign (kinda) and the other one plays like an re4 campaign (kinda) they're both good and you must beat both to beat the game, personally i love the new character and playing her sections in first person was actually suspenseful
veronicabros what if the remake doesn't suck but pales in comparison to re9?
>>560094635It's really good, although a bit uneven. There teo distinct parts of the game and the first part is truly excellent, the best survival horror experience since RE2R. And the new protagonist is hands down the best and the most likeable new protagonist RE had for decades. It's the second part where the game stumbles a bit. It's still good, but you can't feel but notice the game starts losing the plot and is just faffing about at this point. And this dread and horror of the part 1 is absolutely gone. And the story... it's fine. It starts off very strong, the main villain is delightfully hammy and entertaining, and I liked the final twist, but it does have a fair bit of those "how the fuck did we come to this conclusion" issues.Overall, for me it's the best RE game since RE2R. I would pick it over RE4R and definately over 7 or 8.
>>560095069It'd still be better than the original
>>560094635You're gonna love the voice acting, especially from the game's new main protagonist.
>>560095069That’s hardly a worst case scenario or anything of the sort. Hell, that’s more or less what I expect, although I wouldn’t hope it wouldn’t “pale in comparison”, it’s just not going to be up to par with it most likely. As long as it’s not another RE3 situation I’ll be satisfied.
I wish Code Veronica had a PC port.I don't like emulations.
>>560094635Very solid game. Enjoyed it the whole way through with what it brought it to the franchise.>>560094753Interesting. I should revisit it and spend more time doing that.
>>560092431Disagree, the remake made that part even scarier with the turned off lights and stuff>>560092295Delicious boobies
Man it's weird playing this game in first person.
Adapative difficulty was a mistake
>>560094635dont go into it with high expectations, you'll be disappointedWent in just looking for more RE and was really surprised how good care center was. didnt expect to get REmake vibes this year. Then the game went temu RE4R. bosses are mediocre. was like seeing old bosses from real souls games jammed into nightreign. Graphically its the best RE.
>>560027667>Resident Evil General>look inside: Coomer Central
where's Rebecca when you need herloving tormented souls a lot now, it's much better than I expected based on mixed reception herethe mansion exploration and puzzles are really well doneactually had to use my brain a couple times unlike requiemthe shadow/lighter mechanic is a cool new ideaenemies and voice acting are the only real weak pointsand they give you way too many resources
>>560105246I still can't get over the fact that Capcom literally put Leon into the game because they were unsure Grace can carry the game all by herself and Leon sells.And now it turns out it's Grace that's been the highlight of the game and Leon is meh.
>stars in any game>it sells a bajillion copieswhats his deal
what would marie had done if she actually had emily all to herself? it doesnt seem like she had any intent on hurting her at all
>>560108350Aryan

>>560092431The lack of the head twitch bumps it down a few points.

>>560117581I miss DC Douglas
>>560118178capcom is never consistent with voice actors unless it's dmc, i'm surprised they let him in more than one game
whats the scariest enemy in re9?
>>560118424He got replaced because he broke NDA by leaking Wesker’s design in 4. And HUNK and Birkin both had returning VAs in 2R.
>>560118946seems like too harsh a punishment for someone who voice him for re5 and mvc
>>560119739Breaking NDA is just that serious anon... Why did DC Douglas leak it again?
>>560123924is it tho? seems to me that they just doid it to make an example out of people, everyone knows wesker is re4
>>560123924He was flirting with some girl and leaked it to impress her, so she leaked it too for attention.
>and now they're bringing us back>we can say this, right?Dan Southworth accidentally leaked DMC5's existence in 2015 and Capcom didn't fire him. Is he just too powerful?
>>560125042well, you just can't fire the star, there's also the chance capcom told him to do it, you know, for hype

>>560032164I mean let’s not act like Spencer was this well established character Wesker-esque character who we knew everything about, the guy is more a legend than an actual character because of how much of a backseat he takes to the other villains in the series despite being pretty much the entire reason the franchise is around. There’s definitely room for contradiction in his decision making process especially given that he was already old and somewhat desperate/on a ticking clock because of it.
>>560137689This. RE9 somehow expanded on Spencer as a character just like they did with Leon.Masterclass storytellers at capcom
