Do you think they'll put a merchant in the game, sticking with the Re4 appeal. Or will you have to find it all yourself like the older games? Personally, I hope they stick with the RE4 idea.
 
Maybe they will have a merchant, like a un-infected villager there or something... Or maybe Claire will give you stuff throughout the game
 
Ok, just confirming what I suggested this is what Jun says in that interview:

[font=Courier New, Verdana][size=12pt]"As far as the Merchant goes, he's pretty popular, we know a lot of fans out there like him, I can't actually say whether he's going to appear in this game or not though right at the moment, but I can tell you that there will be(off course) a weapons upgrade system available in the game."

He also says that (in no particular order):

[font=Courier New, Verdana][size=12pt]"There are going be over 20 weapons you will be able use in the game"

"I can tell you that you will be able to get your hands on some pretty interesting weaponry throught some interesting methods."

"As for the green herbs, that is one strange plant, seems to grow where ever you go in the world so we're sure it will appear in Resident Evil 5 aswell."

It still sounds a little like no merchant to me. (my opinion) but still might be a guy to upgrade. Or maybe like one key location with new weaponry. who knows......
 
In my opinion, I think that there will be a 'Merchant' but probably not the same one as seen in RE4 due to capcoms reasoning of trying to re-design everything while still using features from RE4 ie. The control system. and just guessing but probably the upgrade system too.
 
I think thats the case. Unless he jumped on a plane and flew to Africa lol, customs might have something to say about that with the arsenal he carries around :D

I hope they do have a merchant, its the highlight of a level. Usually, when there's a merchant, its usually (not always) a safe zone :D

Even if its not a safe zone, You still feel safe ;)
 
Lol yeah, if I was in Resident Evil:
Merchant: What're you buyin?
Me: Sorry I'm not suppossed to talk to strangers...
Merchant: What are you selling?
Me: What?
Merchant: Ah, I'll buy that at a high price!
Me: Ahh pedofile!!
Merchant: Come back anytime!
:D :D
