None of the Weskers are blood-relations, it's more of an adopted (forced) name through some project or whatever the gently caress Spencer was waffling about before Albert shut him up for good.

Correct. The final scene of Revelations 2 at the Burton home occurs on the same day as the China section of RE6 begins, with Claire having just learned from Piers that Chris is alive and okay following his disappearance the previous year.

Chris disappears right before 6 because of PTSD induced amnesia, so that's a pretty good excuse. The PTSD is also the magic Resident Evil kind that allows Chris to pull a shotgun out of a flashback and manifest it in the present.

Yeah, there's that flashback chapter in Chris' campaign. You can get the Assault Shotgun there, which then follows you back into the not-flashback chapters.

But hey, if people let Sekiro get away with that kind of thing...

In Sekiro though, the fact that you can bring physical objects with you from memories is an actual plot point. Sekiro needs a plot critical object from the past to complete his quest and the only way to do that is to travel to the memory where that item still existed.

That doesn't mean the time loop you're shown actually makes sense.

Anyway, it was just a joke. The whole thing is a pretty dumb and hilarious continuity error.

you just have to get used to the fact that sometimes the game is gonna make you tackle open a door in front of respawning zombies, this is much worse in file 2 where they have multiple levels where you have to do this

I had liked Outbreak, but the moment I fell in love with Outbreak is when I got to the last scenario with a full team and the David (IIRC) threw a wrench which bounced off of the Tyrant's ample hog, and then was immediately skewered

David's wrenches are really good in file 1, just not against non-zombie enemies. I can see how somebody would think to try it on the Tyrant. I like the way he underhands the wrenches but it somehow knocks people down anyway.

In file 2 david's wrenches only stagger instead of knocking down zombies in one hit.

Chris was 25 in the original RE, which is set in July of 1998. In RE5, which is set in March of 2008, he's 35. Thus, he's 31 in RE:R (2004), 40 in RE6 (2013) and 44 in RE7 (2017).

He's probably overdue for retirement, but I have to figure that one of the things driving the reboots is the developers' desire to keep hold of the original cast for as long as they can.

where did that other dog come from

who is he


I stumbled across a translation for the Biohazard 2 Official Guide Book, which has a Q&A with Hideki Kamiya at the back. His description of what Leon was doing immediately before arriving at Racoon City is fantastic and canon:


quote:

Q6. Why was Leon wearing the Raccoon police uniform before he arrived at his post?

A6. I'll tell you about Leon before he came to Raccoon City...
Recently bizarre incidents have been occurring in Raccoon, a country town unfamiliar with such bizarre cases; Leon graduated from the police academy and with his strong sense of justice, he was very interested in them and immediately decided to be assigned to the Raccoon Police Department.
Needless to say, he was to be assigned to such service starting from the morning that day, but when he was leaving the place where he had lived until then, he broke up with his girlfriend and a great uproar happened from the separation, so his move became overdue (they seem to have finally separated in the end...).
Eventually, while his new address had yet to be decided, Leon drove to Raccoon City all through the night the day before he was to assume his post. However, along the way at a motel, Leon was rowdy and began drinking. He got helplessly drunk and by the time he woke up it was already the early afternoon! (He seems irresponsible, but you could say what disturbs his mind is Leon's faithfulness to women)
Leon panicked, ran out and also attempted to communicate with the Raccoon Police Department several times along the way, but there was no response.
"At this rate I'll reach Raccoon in the middle of the night... Oh well, if I'm late, it'll be the same night and day till I'm there."
Leon drove his car over the rhythm in tune with his favorite music playing from the car stereo. The highway extended straight ahead eerily rising in the setting sun's illumination, and the crimson Arklay Mountains towered...
...Basically he changed into the uniform he was supplied in the motel.

Leon survived the outbreak because he broke up with his girlfriend, got blackout drunk in a motel and slept through his first day.
