General Unpopular Opinions on Biohazard

Survivor being canon, I don't mind.

I thought it was great that Capcom talked about Sheena Island at the start of RE0. Some people even want Ark Thompson to return, as he is friends with Leon. That was never explored beyond Ark just mentioning that he was friends with him.

BIO5 ruined Wesker. He is nothing more than a bad amalgamation of Roy Batty and Agent Smith in that game. He is at his best as the charismatic manipulator. CV nearly did right by him but was the start of his downfall by making him into a cartoon with Bond Villain elements.

In OG RE1, Wesker gets:
1) Bullied and laughed at by Chris or..
2) Bonked by Barry.

He was a Scooby Doo villain to begin with. Just Rated M.

EDIT: I am not trying to dismiss your views on RE5 Wesker. I was just pointing out that viewing Wesker as cartoony is a rather popular opinion.

Few see it that way and BIO5 being his worst use in the games is the unpopular opinion. Barry and Chris are tanks, anyone in that same situation would have met the same outcome unless they were of Solid Snake or Master Chief proportions, and he was tricking them anyway. He became infamous in the first place for getting practically the entire elite team he trained himself wiped out. He allows them to believe he has lost when in fact he's just beginning. Even his failure is good, it gives him something to grow from and shows that he is human, not another mindless bloodthirsty B.O.W. He learns from his mistakes for the rest of the series onward until BIO5 where he suddenly becomes completely lacking in common sense and more inept than he ever was.

Lily gao is the best va for ada. She's the one who sounds closest to sally cahill compared to previous va that voiced the character. She deserves to voice the character in a new game story that would be set after re6. I want to hear her impression in a new game story rather than revisiting the past with yet another different interpretation done with re engine. I hope capcom wont ditch the character due to the unfair treatment lily gao received.
 
I do not think she's bad at all.

Wesker, on the other hand? There's room for improvement there. :D
For wesker, his re4r portrayal is also my favourite one from all of his appearances. The design, the voice, the writing etc. Overall ı think re4r wesker is the best follow up from iwao's writing as far as acting, design and writing goes. I'm also glad that they make his suit an unlockable to be swapped though from my understanding, it still cant be used in mercenaries. I still didnt play mercenaries right now, ı'll eventually play that too. Regardless ada and wesker's relationship in re4r is one of my favourite character relationships in the series. I didnt like their relationship before, particularly during assignment ada which felt quite rushed, something mikami even admits but with re4r, ı think their relationship is given more development and ı see the characters tying to re5 and re6 better than re4-assignment ada-separate ways do.
