    GOD RE4 is a great game

    I never really think of it in a list of my all time favorite games but everything about it from start to finish makes me so happy

    Just get the damn escort part out and I'd agree.

    bahhhhhh

    you can shove her in a dumpster most of the time

    the times you can't it's mostly just used as a way to direct your attention during big gun fights

    i just remembered that saddler's entire plan hinged on you successfully rescuing ashley to bring las plagas to america and yet he works SO HARD to kill you and also tells you that she's infected

    how is he so bad at his job

    I like a good escort mission. Helping protect somebody can be both tense and satisfying!

    His second in command leaves diary pages everywhere around town, too. They're just staggeringly incompetent, really.

    Yeah because anyone infected is compelled to obey saddler because he hosts the queen or whatever

    So if he infects the president he effectively takes over America and probably the rest of the world too

    Saddler was a player surrogate, he gets so wrapped up in the pleasure of interacting with the game mechanics that he lost track of the plot

    Also I get a kick out of having her stand behind you and fist pump every time you kill an enemy.

    I posted about it in G&T but I loved RE7. Super fun and intense, even enjoyed the more actiony parts at the end.

    escort missions are pretty much universally dogshit and developers need to fucking stop because nobody fucking likes them fuck

    re4s was one of the least bad

    Escort missions suck because the escorted AI can make decisions against their best interest and fuck you over even though you're playing well

    Ashley either hides in a dumpster or does specific scripted things like 90% of the time, she really doesn't have that problem

    Unless you just think that protecting stuff from bad guys shouldn't be a game mechanic ever

    Resident Evil 4 is probably my fav resident evil ever.

    Resident Evil 5 was good fun but I basically cheated that one.

    Played with AI Sheva. Gave her that bolt action rifle.

    She was taking out zombies before I even saw them.

    The first Resident Evil game I ever played was Resident Evil 3. Then 2. Then 1.

    Then Code: Veronica. Also a little Outbreak.

    But all the console switching and the abandonment of the "survival horror" aspect kinda killed it for me after that.

    Though I recently finished the REmake and started on Resident Evil: Zero through Steam. I'm not too thrilled with Zero, though. Inventory management has always been my least favorite aspect of the RE series, and now they're makin' me manage TWO inventories.

    And that's why I loved it so.

    Also nothing in Resident Evil has lived up to the moment where
    You encounter a chainsaw wielding villager for the first time.

    Ashley also seems to have a decent amount of health so she doesn't die in like one hit most of the time.

    Dang RE4 was amazing.

    Also playing through that dumb story with the chicago typewriter after beating it the first time is good times.

    Also I had gotten halfway through professional mode on gamecube back in the day.

    the president's daughter has been kidnapped, how or where does not matter shut up

    she is in NOTSpain somehow, shut up also

    a lone special agent armed with a single pistol and knife who does not speak spanish or have a map of the area is sent in, driven by 2 local cops who immediately are killed

    don't worry about it, it's fine, this 20-something raccoon city cop has totally got this no problem

    No you see

    They can't let anyone know she's kidnapped because it makes the President seem weak (or some shit like that)

    I played a bit of this last night (got up to the main hall) and I'm not sure how I feel yet, although I'll keep playing. Some of the mechanics choices don't work for me, like scripted parts where you're supposed to lose/get hurt. I can be okay with that in cutscenes, but so far it's just been "[whatever character] pops up literally out of nowhere and severely hurts you", in the game engine while you're just doing other stuff, so I've died a couple times because (so far) the enemies are bullet sponges and I'm bad at FPS so I wonder if I'm just supposed to let them get me

    Most of my "fear" of the game, so far, is really tied to just how bad I am at first-person shooters and thinking "welp, I'm gonna die because I'm bad at the game". Although I have been listening to a true-crime podcast lately that does add to the fear since this shit happens in real life (the kidnappings/cannibalism, not the supernatural stuff)

    I don't think I could play it in VR because I'd just feel super fucking claustrophobic

    In the boiler room, where those three molded all come at you simultaneously, I killed all three of 'em with my pocket knife. Just dancing in and out, slashing at heads, shouting "I PLAY DARK SOULS, MOTHERFUCKER"

    Oh this is about the game and not the movie

    I've now watched the first two movies and enjoyed basically nothing about them
    I'm afraid this is another on the long list of things I can't join you and AJ on

    Yeah, that's fair

    If you can't find enjoyment in the first two, I doubt it's going to come for you in the following ones

    Although AJ and I both think that four is probably the best, for what that's worth

    I think my ranking would be:

    4
    1
    3
    2
    5

    I'm seeing 6 next weekend, I had too much other shit going on to do an opening weekend showing

    we actually sync up perfectly here

    though, including 6 my ranking would be

    4
    1
    3
    6
    2
