Since the cat is out of the bag now, I guess it's fine to talk about this.
I really don't like the direction of the series. I am worried that RE9 will be following up to the story in Village with Rosemary Winters resurfacing as this Alice type heroine, with an even more convuluted storyline to match. Oh, God. As if the franchise doesn't have more than enough of this nonsense going on already, eh?
I mean, seriously. Fans like myself tolerated the "seventh" mainline game, because, well, it was something different to play through for a change, I suppose. But now we are getting another first person game this year, and perhaps a third one down the line. Well, that's if the ending we learned about should be implying as such. Meanwhile, I wonder when the heck Capcom will bring back the OG characters again in a meaningful manner. For I mean, I know I am tired of the cameras with legs we play as nowadays, because they are just too boring to really care about. Not to mention the similarities with RE4, which I considered the death of RE back in the day in any case.
Hopefully, Capcom continues to do high concept side story games like the Revelations games, because they at least still have the RE appeal intact, to some extent. Unlike the actual sequels that don't really feel like true sequels anymore.
