Dead Space 2 had the craziest death scene I've ever seen, and it's from an enemy that only appears a couple of times and would rarely kill you. This Thing-like upside-down skull spider jumps on your shoulders, pries your head off, and then interfaces its weird tentacle with your spine and inserts its crazy skull onto your body and puppets your corpse. Brutal.

That was a cool sequence until I hosed it up for the sixth time in a row because his eye randomly flickered at the wrong time, then it was just tedious.

The deadspace "drag you down a corridor and into a tentacle mouth" death is the worst one, I think. Mostly because of that brief moment when Isaac almost manages to get out.

Tomb raider had a ton of brutal death cuts ends, but they were mostly from environmental deaths.

It's weird how the grisly deaths in Resident Evil and Dead Space feel way less skeevy and exploitative than those in Tomb Raider 2013.

SolidSnakesBandana posted:I played RE3 for the first time around 2002? 2004? something like that. I'd somehow played every RE up to that point but that one, especially loving RE2. RE3 really blew me away. I was totally immersed in this PS1 game, and the only other game to do that for me was Silent Hill. Do you really only fight Nemesis 7 times? I felt like I encountered him dozens of times. You can actually encounter Nemesis much more than 7 times, and if you run instead of fight he'll hound you through much of the game, which is awesome. Another way to put it is that there are only 7 unique windows of time that killing him will give you a drop. When I set out to get the drops I set the encounters this way: 1. The RPD courtyard. 2.When he jumps through the RPD window. You can lure him to the Branagh room and exploit a glitch and kill him easily with the knife. 3. Fry him with the restaurant explosion. He'll get up when you leave but killing him again won't get you anything else here. 4. I'm going from memory, and these next two are fuzzy. I think this is when you come back from the Sales Office, when he breaks the fire hydrant. 5. Just before you you bring all the items to the cable car (I think). Or maybe it's outside the power station. 6. Electrocute him on the Clock Tower balcony. 7. In the Clock Tower ballroom, after Jill is cured. You can drop Nemmy as Carlos but this doesn't get you anything. You only encounter him in actual boss fights after this.

NESguerilla posted:You were right it was from Dead Space 2 . That game was great. Huh, I thought it was from the first one. Then again, those 'splitter' necromorphs showed up in both, so maybe it was in 1 and 2. On the topic of where you could fight Nemesis, I thought it was cool how if you did things in different orders, it'd mix up the storyline a little bit (or at least the dialogue). Like, if you went to the newspaper office before the diner, little things would be different, or which Nemesis option you took seemed to affect where he shows up later. I seem to remember some choice resulting in Jill suddenly being surrounded by four zombies before Nemesis rocket launchers them, which didn't happen every playthrough; or Carlos first showing up in a slightly different location. Who knows how accurate my memory of it is, but one I remember for sure is based on what route you take as Carlos, there's a room in the hospital where you either find your zombifying friend Murphy and mercy kill him, or you find Nicholai gunning down a UCBS guy, who then pulls out a grenade to try and take him down with him.

Also I think the skeevy nature of the opposing forces in the remake and Rise made me wanna not play them. Or at least in 2013.

It was Square-Enix's godawful marketing that made them look skeevy. The villains in the 2013 game are just some crazed cultists trapped on the island with Lara and trying to appease supernatural forces while the main villains in Rise are a mercenary army of a secret society hunting down a MacGuffin for nefarious purposes. You also can't really blame the game for weirdos who get off to videos of video game characters dying either.

I mean I don't understand where you're coming from, going down a pretty nasty current probably has its risks as does parachuting from somewhere or attempting to escape crazed cultists. I don't get where the skeevy thing comes from, is it because she's a woman? Would you be fine if it was Nathan Drake getting impaled through the neck?

Alteisen posted:About as accidental as getting your head chopped off by a chainsaw. You'll notice that Nathan Drake doesn't get those kinds of deaths. Most of his deaths are not graphic. The early game tomb raider was full of those kinds of deaths. Resident evil has been a series full of graphic deaths, from plants eating your head to a guy getting split open by a monster.

Not to mention the developers of Tomb Raider stating that they wanted the player to empathize with and want to protect Laura. Which is something you'd never hear Naughty Dog say about Nathan Drake or Joel for example. So the gruesome deaths and all the horrible ways she gets hurt throughout that whole game paints it more in a skeevy light.

By "accidental", I mean "the player is curious enough to see what happens when they go down a path they didn't choose or won't choose under normal circumstances". And by skeevy, well, see post above. poo poo had the potential to play out like a Lifetime movie for all I know, which was the aforementioned garbage-tier marketing.

Shut up about Tomb Raider and stop overusing the word "skeevy" and watch the new RE7 "gameplay" trailer instead. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tS05LB-3W4c Game comes out on January 24th, 2017. Villain in the tape is apparently Marguerite Baker. More details here. Still not really feeling this myself. It doesn't really feel like I'm watching any gameplay, and there still doesn't seem to be any combat present.

Also why do I see a possible reference to The Goonies with that name. I'm suddenly thinking of the old lady. Also, it's probably gonna go the paranoia route? Wherein you THINK there's a zombie but in reality that whole sequence had to be cut due to deadlines.

If that's actual gameplay then everybody will be complaining about the AI that can't see 5 feet in front of them, even with a light source.

This is not going to sate anyone who's worried resident evil is just gonna turn into an outlast clone. We already have an outlast 2 coming, and that might be better for the whole 'running away from evil things' genre. Can we get something with combat, horror, and counting my bullets?

My guess is that you won't get to do any fighting in the flashback/videotape segments, only in the present. The Playstation Blog entry claims this trailer is a videotape segment, although I don't know how that makes sense because you can see both of the character's hands on-screen at one point. Is she wearing a GoPro?
