I'm a main George, actually glad she's deadI hope you have been playing Outbreak as Alyssa Ashcroft

General What RE is everyone playing until RE9?

her voice lines still haunt my nightmaresCAPCOM did some research on Boston while developing 3, they later went to New York for OB, the area surrounding the Manhattan bridge was used as a reference for some of the urban areas that later appeared in the outbreak scenario.
Perry's novels aren't part of the canon. Raccoon is likely close to Chicago which puts us in either Illinois or Missouri.

Are there any examples like this from gameplay, rather than just the opening scenes?
It's been a while but I do remember some stuff like the Grady's Inn location and the deleted shot of Jill in the street with The Shawshank Redemption characters.
not from the top of my head. Although I suspect that the clock tower was based of the custom house tower in boston.
Shawshank redemption? That’s one crazy crossover. I couldn’t find anything on that

Guys I, uh, am I crazy or is item management nonexistent in the 1999 version of re3?
I was trying to play honest but after I kept being handed gunpowder, I started walking down everything with the shotgun that wasn’t named Nemesis.

It's kind of deceptive because Hard mode is really Normal mode. If you select the easier mode it will start you with more weapons and be a cake walk. (Disclaimer: There may be differences between modes in different versions)
I was playing on the Hard difficulty. It’s really as you said Burton. It’s kind of funny; I was stressed for a while because I was wondering what was going to be thrown at me since I was allowed to hold +80 shotgun shells, multiple variations of grenade rounds, magnum ammo etc.
I had a really hard time in 0, 1, Leon A, so it really was therapeutic when I realized I could go Rambo on everything on for once.
I ducked nemesis at every opportunity so maybe not everything
. Is there a reward for killing him outside of forced interactions?

Yeah along with health kits there are the parts to build the STI Eagle and the M37 shotgun (2 for each) and eventually you find the assault rifle given straight away in easy mode.I ducked nemesis at every opportunity so maybe not everything
Tbh having so many types of gunpowder is the reason to replay, to see different endings or character locations. Was Carlos in the diner or the press office, where did the other guys like Nicholai and Tyrell appear etc.

Most definitely going to replay it again tonight. I held off looking it up online but I saw the in-game files of there being more variations of certain types of ammunition to craft, and apparently the ammo gets stronger the more you craft it. So that’s going to be interesting to experiment with.
That name sounds black so im guessing that’s the guy with the glasses. I died a few times in the hospital level, and it seems like he dies no matter what area he is in Lol.
Is there something specific I have to do to get into the boutique by the bar? I was thinking I have to save the girl in the pink t-shirt but I don’t think I can do that.
IIRC back then too Last Escape was marketed as a bit more action for the series, the series had began to have a difficult stigma around it. They wanted more gunplay to complement the dodge or something of that nature. Of course in the end though the dodge mechanic, while absolutely godlike, was never really the most new player friendly mechanic. That era was so unapologetically Japanese in game design and I adore it. Games like Outbreak with just frames, i-frame weapon dodges and more... my fav era of gaming.I was playing on the Hard difficulty. It’s really as you said Burton.

Why does every RE title I end up liking has a stigma around it
. Not that familiar with Japanese game design, but yea there’s something that goes off in my brain when I successfully pull of a series of moves just by playing anticipating the enemies' frames and my own.

I started RE6 for some reason, first time since PS3 co-op days. I feel... like it's a mistake. Playing as Leon here after the perfect satisfaction of OG RE4 is like having a bucket of ice water thrown over me. So weird and slippery to control. Gross. The characters are all self-serious and covered in dirt. Plus the game is mostly just walk down a linear hallway (very funny there's a dedicated button for wayfinding here). It's weird I recall not really liking it much but not why, not sure I will stick it out for long.
