General Random Thoughts: Biohazard/Resident Evil edition

The Alien and Terminator series was always a major inspiration well before RE4.
Yeah. The metallic hallways and the T-1000. How he would relentlessly follow Sarah Connor is like how Nemesis stalks Jill throughout Raccoon City. He's also extremely hard to kill.

I also think RE2 took some ideas from Alligator, because in that movie, there's an overgrown gator found in the sewers.
 
I don't think Capcom really puts any thought into who signs on the dotted line to voice what role, to be honest. So as long as the money pours in for them, that's all that matters.

It's a pity RE got to become a big franchise, where it got tarnished somewhat. I'm grateful it did come this far, because that's incredible how a franchise that started in 1996 is still going strong today with the sales and generally positive reviews. But at the same time, questionable decisions on Capcom's part has often made me ask myself as to why I still follow along.

I sincerely hope RE9 can get back to the more true side of the series, and therefore ditch this fantasy nonsense, because I don't want it carrying over from RE8.

And yeah. Every character is getting on a bit, ages wise. So there's that problem too.
 
Well, it looks like Biohaze will be my only forum now for RE talk, with most other forums being either dead or being filled with folk with an unwelcoming attitude. And I noticed Silent Hill Community gave up its forum today. Although hardly anyone posted there, just like with a lot of forums nowadays.
 
I noticed you're not able to DM anyone on Twitter now, unless you're verified with this blue tick.

Now I get that it's turning kid friendly like YouTube tries to be, but meh. And OnlyFans is the same. I used to come and go, but if I rejoin it now, they block your card payments shortly thereafter, basically until you can verify your age, email address, a screenshot of your face (which they claim isn't kept on record, AKA that's rubbish), and your ID. All are individually requested. 😫

It's too much. 🤓
