    Resident Evil: Requiem

    And I regret repeating it. Best stick to tomatoes from now on.

    Resident Evil: Requiem

    While I disagree with your implication that CV was widely received as a mainline game in when it was released (it was not, as RE3 sold much more copies than CV due to the latter being released on an alien platform), that was kind of a strange post from T. A fan of somebody is somebody who...

    Resident Evil: Requiem

    Oh I agree, definitely, but that's how it was back then. And bear in mind this was at a time when the Internet and social media were in it's infancy and therefore "mass New Age enlightenment" was virtually non existent so CV, 0, and REmake sold poorly due to tactfully bad marketing decisions by...

    Resident Evil: Requiem

    You have to look at from the state of affairs at that time period with the fan base. The vast majority of RE fans were Sony Playstation owners and therefore expected to receive continued content on that platform. Code Veronica being released on Sega Dreamcast was considered weird and out there...

    Resident Evil: Requiem

    At the time of its release it was indeed treated/marketed as some kind of nuanced side game. It was not until RE4 was released when CV's plot became cemented into the mainline series more solidly, which weirdly made it more popular in retrospect.

    Resident Evil: Requiem

    He is probably right about a hypothetical CVR being treated like a main game, but undoubtedly very wrong on the motorcycle theory. He seems to applying Ubisoft logic into a Capcom series. Ubisoft would think it's cool to jump on the open world Days Gone motorcycle bandwagon and transform their...

    Resident Evil: Requiem

    Watch out for Dusk Golem guys I know the type. Even if Leon is not in the game at all and the general public does indeed throw eggs at him, he will retain a cult following and continue to cause problems within the community. People like that don't just casually throw in the towel. XD I...

    Resident Evil: Requiem

    Gamescom coming up. This should hopefully clarify more details about the game and ALL the characters involved. Then we can put this to rest finally. Dusk Golem is either a fountain of infinite Resident Evil wisdom who is loosely connected to Capcom like some kind of of dirty Mafia affiliated...

    Leak: Resident Evil 9 was originally an open-world multiplayer game with Leon and Jill, was rebooted in 2021

    Precisely. This right here is the only cliffhanger I have mused about in recent RE history. With RE9 being revealed to have little or nothing to do with BU or the Wolfhound Squad (as the main plotline, anyway) I am certainly not gonna stress it right now and will try to accept Requiem on its...

    They certainly do put a lot of stock in cliffhangers, don't they? It's strange because 90% of RE cliffhangers don't even go anywhere/mean anything.

    RE the END

    Capcom board of directors. You know, the people who plan out long term financial strategies to keep investors happy? Those exciting and fascinating pencil pushers with large salaries.

    RE the END

    I hate to keep bringing up Pragmata but the entire team for that game is literally "fresh out of college" developers. All kids. Resident Evil developers are mostly old farts. Pretty simple mathematics here, unless they restructure the entire team they're probably just better off disbanding it...

    RE the END

    If Pragmata becomes a huge hit/franchise then I think I they could consider cooling off on Resident Evil considerably. Big "If" though.

    Resident Evil: Requiem

    Well, I hope he's chosen a nice coffin for himself (something he certainly should be good at, he loves himself so much!) because everything points to him dying on that hill! It's astonishing though really, I thought this kind of Cult of Personality crap was for politicians and not entertainment...

    Pragmata

    Well, I don't know about you merry gentlemen (or care, for that matter), but I am absolutely STOKED about Capcom's new IP Pragmata. Diana is one of the best new "characters" I've seen in a video game (which is saying a lot, it's really hard for me to care about game characters, even Resident...
