    General Lore Thread

    Okay, I took a good nap, so can we continue, ha-ha? Before I start the second part, I wanted to write an addition to the first one, namely a comparison that can reinforce the parallel between monk and Saddler. Throughout the game, Leon finds the holy book of Los Iluminados, and one of them is...

    General Lore Thread

    Hi. I wanted to share some observations and decided to do so in a thread dedicated on the franchise's lore, but I didn't find any, so I created this one. Maybe I did a bad search, and if I did, I hope this thread is not a big deal. It would be nice to have a place where people could discuss the...

    General Random Thoughts: Biohazard/Resident Evil edition

    Sounds like bullshit, imo. It's not impossible to send Leon to Asia, he's just an American agent who represents the interests of the American establishment, so the plot needs a good excuse to send such an agent outside the jurisdiction of the United States. And no current storyline predisposes...

    RE9 RE9 internal delay, another RE:make to release first?

    I thought maybe the fact that the legendary executive refers to humans as "mortals" is not a callback to Wesker's immortal form from 5, but to Spencer. I don't remember Wesker calling people mortals (I may not know or forget something), but Spencer did. And since Wesker might look like Spencer...

    General Resident Evil Makes Video Game Hall Of Fame

    Well deserved. An iconic game. One of my favorites.

    He probably will. Chris is so far the only veteran who has been investigating The Connections for two games in a row.

    General Random Thoughts: Biohazard/Resident Evil edition

    Yeah, there was a source that it's called Umbrella Chronicles and is heavily based on Zero. Rebecca and Billy are the protagonists, respectively.

    General Random Thoughts: Biohazard/Resident Evil edition

    Well, of course, because each title has its own gimmick. BIO2 is not the same as CODE: Veronica because 2 is centered on the zombie apocalypse theme, while C:V has a focus on Gothic fiction and has its own take on Naoki Urasawa's Monster and Norman Bates. BIO4 is not the same as BIO5, because...

    General Random Thoughts: Biohazard/Resident Evil edition

    I don't see why they shouldn't. Apart from the fact that these are high-quality games, Bram Stoker's Dracula and the Biohazard series have always had a ton of conceptual similarities, because even the original first game was inspired by the idea of a haunted house and a manga about vampires...

    I've seen this information on a Japanese source before. If it turns out to be true, the credit will be given to Dusk Golem again. A never ending nightmare.

    RE9 RE9 internal delay, another RE:make to release first?

    It's no secret that Resident Evil 9 is a thing. The fact of the game's existence and its working title Apocalypse leaked along with other internal documents back in 2020. Anyone can assume that the game will be announced in the summer and will be released in January or March, because Capcom has...

    RE9 RE9 internal delay, another RE:make to release first?

    It's time to put on a foil hat, ha-ha: The legendary executive of Umbrella, who is supposedly Albert Wesker himself, must still reveal himself to the world sooner or later, even if he is not a man in sunglasses above. Assuming that this old man is really Albert, his appearance shouldn't be...

    General Random Thoughts: Biohazard/Resident Evil edition

    Yeah, I was the one who asked that uninspiring question. If you justify your anti-fan behavior by the anti-fan behavior of other fans who annoy you, then you are no better. Just the other side of the coin. You people deserve each other.

    General Are the Remakes canon?

    These games are definitely not meant to be a separate series or reboot by any means. They just add a layer to this "choose your own adventure" narrative design that the series has had since its very foundation in 1996. The new remakes are not the first timeline of interpretations either. We...

    General Monsters in Alone in the Dark resemble the Molded!

    Yes, Alone in the Dark is not an AAA game, but it shouldn't be a verdict by any means. Games can have an enjoyable experience and tell good stories without having absurd budgets.
