Ah, Operation Raccoon City. Such a quirky concept (playing as Umbrella stooges sent in to cover up the company's incompetency), but oh dear sweet baby Jesus did it falter in execution. Glad I passed on buying this game back when it came out. The amount of bullshit this game throws at you is just bad. The Licker chain-stun is only the beginning. It gets worse. At least Nicholai is still as Snideley Whiplash as he was back in the old days.

Derek Barona posted:Welcome to ORC, basically. This game's "story" is less of another look into the events of the canon timeline during RE2/3 as it is just an attempt at bringing the action shooter gameplay of the newer games back into the early settings of the series and giving gently caress all about whether or not they're tearing their own established canon to shreds in the process just so they can say "Hey, you get to play through here with THIRD PERSON SHOOTING!!!"

Umbrella has a facility actually called "the Dead Factory". That is amazingly believable, given the company's history. Less believable is the fact that cutting Raccoon City's power grid didn't cut the power to the Umbrella facility because it has its own separate power source. That is some bullshit right there.

God, that dual Tyrant "boss battle" is such bullshit. I've seen videos of people attempting that fight solo, and it goes even worse than it did here. Tyrants only having one spot on their bodies (their heads) that takes anything resembling damage just makes it even more aggravating.

WitchFetish posted:Yeah, that's one of the weird things about this LP, you are constantly talking about how the next encounter is pure bullshit or about how the incoming bossfight is near impossible, yet you always manage to breeze through it while also shooting/running into eachother. But yeah, this game is heavily centered around co-op and the game's difficulty is clearly scaled that way.

Momomo posted:Holy gently caress those Claire and Sherry models are bad. At least there was some fun with the glitches though, cause everything else looked pretty terrible. As for your question, these past 7 videos ARE the "meat" of the game, since the USS are all you have at the start (aside from multiplayer) and Echo Six are a DLC campaign. Yes, Slant Six considers the USS campaign a "complete game". Even though both versions of the ending are very abrupt and don't actually wrap things up.

I've already added them for the old updates too.

Mr. Soop posted:Sadly I doubt that Capcom has enough sense to make a good move like that these days. At least Resident Seavil was pretty enjoyable. The fact that Revelations turned as well as it did still amazes me. Yeah, it wasn't perfect, but compared to ORC and RE6, it was a drat enjoyable game that got the bare minimum of advertising (at least, compared to RE6).

Wow, that....that was some bullshit there. And I thought the dual Tyrant fight for the Wolfpack was the most bullshit the game throws at you in a single section. On the topic of Carlos, it seems his voice actor here is Gideon Emery, who is a good voice actor. He must have just phoned in his Carlos performance for...whatever reason.

Singh Long posted:Anyway, I'm happy I never caved in and bought this game and the DLC now that I know about what BS this game has. You have my condolences. I haven't had a chance to open my copy of RE6 yet, but at least I know that while that game does carry some controversy, at least it's far better than ORC and even I can't figure out how people can say 6 is worse than ORC with a straight face.  video game journalists. More often than not, their scores are the result of either trolling (in the case of the Destructoid reviewer mentioned in the video) or are all-but-bribed by developers to give their scores.Derek Barona posted:So basically, the "canon" fuckery in Echo Six is more or less stealing Jill's game. It IS just like the live action movies! *=And by "tearing things up", I mean: "The plot is manually railroaded so the Mary Sue does every drat thing in the game".

Well, that was a trip through bullshit and hell. Compared to USS, the final boss arena was (like most of the Echo Six campaign) annoying and more bullshit. And it seems the "mess with canon" for the Echo Six amounts to: "We were in Raccoon, and we evacuated Leon, Claire and Sherry via helicopter instead of by train. Also, Birkin Forms 2-4

Singh Long posted:I honestly think Slant Six somehow thought people wanted more of Lost Planet 2 seeing as how: From a story standpoint.....I honestly have no idea what could be done to make things flow better. Considering that the hype was "You get to mess with canon" and very little of that actually happens, that's where I'd start. But after that,  .
