Ethan being infected makes total sense, and because the game takes place over about a day it makes sense he wasn't fully taken over.

DeadButDelicious posted:Wait which sample did Ada give Wesker? The G-Virus? Because I thought that Separate Ways ending established that she pulled a fast one on Albert and gave him a dud sample instead of the one she takes from Leon at the end of RE4. No, the Las Plagas one.

The Piggyback guides used to be absolutely gorgeous objects, as well as being useful. I probably still have the MGS2 and the FFX-2 ones kicking around somewhere, and I see they're still making great big lovely hardback ones too.

ScootsMcSkirt posted:played the demo and had fun, but it took me waaaaayyy too long to figure out how to get out of the main area after getting the knife. im a big dummy I replayed RE5 recently and found that as long as I split the weapon types between me and Sheva (I went with a pistol and shotgun and gave her a rifle and a machine gun) it was fine. I also gave her most of the healing items because I'm lazy.

Backhand posted:Hmm. I never really thought about it before but I guess you're right. Horrible things happen in RE games, but only to nameless, faceless people that are only rarely (and barely) humanized. The good guys and the bad guys are fairly clearly defined, the guilty eventually always get punished, and you're never really helpless. Gory as it is, I guess the morality of it all is pretty simplistic. I mean mostly. Steve Burnside is annoying but really doesn't deserve what he gets.

Mindblast posted:Absolutely. I just didn't even get close to triggering that, because the idea of going into a room that's a dead end until you unlock the latch while he's on your tail didn't make sense to me. So on my first playthrough me and Jack just ran circles through the two sets of doors connecting to the living room. Yakety Sax would've been appropriate. I genuinely thought I'd got far enough away from him to be able to get the hatch open and jump down and BOY was him grabbing me and lopping off my foot a surprise.

This is why they wanted the Terrasave employees for the experiment in the first place: They'd all been in biohazard situations before and thus had a good chance of staying calm.

I even prefer playing the og System Shock with its original controls. v I know this is a while back but System Shock with it's original controls is an absolute horror show. Leaning left and right is fine but having to move, turn and look up and down with keyboard controls as well as adjust your stance (prone/crouch/standing) and THEN having to aim manually with the mouse... Honestly I can't work out how I played through that game three times when I was a kid.

I was kind of surprised to see someone upthread saying the metal detector box in CV was bad. I thought it was a fun way of creating tension. The only thing I didn't like was how you could accidentally leave stuff in there that you might want later on.

Cardiovorax posted:It's also annoying in a "suspension of disbelief" kind of way. There's no reason why you shouldn't be swamped in an infinite number of the things whenever you're in a room with any kind of visible mold, makes killing them feel kind of pointless. They're literally coming out of the walls, after all. Presumably there's a limit on how many there are, though. Based on that note you find listing how many of the people they abducted died or "turned".

The sequels are just a barrage of "Paul WS Anderson makes movies where his wife does cool poo poo".

Cardiovorax posted:Wesker was also a grown man who went full Ubermensch and tried to wipe out a major portion of humanity. I figure at that point, he doesn't get the sympathy I have for a little girl who brainfucks everyone around her kinda just for existing. I think the argument is that Wesker kidnapped as a child and brainwashed as part of a specific Ubermensch program. I have SOME sympathy for him, but that's outweighed by enjoying his over the top campy nonsense.

Cardiovorax posted:Yeah, it's not a game that I'd recommend ever playing alone. Moments like "oh god, kill the titmonster, kill it now. oh god i hope there isn't another one" made it worth it every time I managed to find someone to play it with, though. There's a lot of fun to be had in the fact that Leon objectively does more harm than good in his campaign. So many people are dead because he helped them.

amigolupus posted:I really didn't like this aspect of the campaign since it felt like the people writing RE6 took cues from the cynicism and pointlessness of other zombie series like The Walking Dead. Cardiovorax posted:I can only see the most superficial of relationships there. Leon goes places and then people tend to die, but it's mostly incidental and not really immediately the fault of anyone, really. Kibayasu posted:You can definitely blame the church and the plane on Leon at least. Cardiovorax posted:Well, it's not TWD-style malicious carelessness, anyway. Who expects a random tit-zombie? Yeah, it's this really, it's not that he does stuff that he knows is going to be harmful, it's that he's doing the zombie hunting version of comedy pratfalls wherever he sets foot. It's not his fault the bus crashes, it's not his fault there was a tit-gas-demon in the church basement, none of it's his fault, it's just funny to me that the universe is determined to ruin everything around him.

Aces High posted:You mean like at the beginning of the new Doom when you destroy the monitor to end a cutscene but then have to sit through unskippable cutscenes for the rest of the game? I didn't think that the "trashing the monitor" bit was supposed to be a "lol, no cutscenes in this game" joke but more "Doomguy does not give a flying gently caress what Optimus Prime is telling him and is going to ignore him all game" joke. Which the stuff with the "very delicate" crystals later on reinforces.

You know what would be fun? If instead of remaking RE4, which we've established is largely unecessary, they went back to some of those failed prototypes and got something out of them. I want to fight hallucinatory dolls, black fog and and a hookman in either a castle or an airship or ideally both.

Zedsdeadbaby posted:I've seen this sentiment many times over the years, but Capcom has dropped that approach for a reason. The concept looked cool but the gameplay with Resident Evil's pace was mind-numbingly dull. When they expanded on it while trying to keep the gameplay engaging they had no choice but to convert the project into another game altogether. Yeah, I know it's probably not workable. Although the resident evil wiki suggests that the issue with the "hallucination" version is the gamecube couldn't render the regular and hallucinatory versions of the rooms at once or something? If it was a hardware issue we should be past that by now.

Don't forget that it also killed a church full of survivors!

rabidsquid posted:yeah its kind of interesting dead space got brought up recently especially in reference to how 3 kind of killed it, because RE5 and Dead Space 3 both suffer from this weird design of having a 12 hour game with a narrative focus that you're heavily encouraged to play entirely co-op. Kane and Lynch maybe? The first one definitely encouraged coop by having one player get hallucination sequences that the other player could clearly see weren't happening
