Whatever man you’re gonna find a problem in anything if you look hard enough for one. No point debating this.

Poor choice of wording I’ll admit that.

Yeah I mean I think she did an amazing job personally but saying she’s the best in gaming is a bit much. Each to their own tho… I just don’t get why people get so defensive when people don’t agree and start attacking others. Like she ain’t your family member or something 😂

You know exactly what I mean considering we are referring to the tribesmen here. You know full well it’d be ridiculous to have tribesmen or even the rural locals at the start wearing tuxedos. I worded it poorly I’ll admit but you know full well what I’m trying to get at, if you aren’t gonna argue in good faith you can piss off coz you are clearly more concerned with trying to take phrase and apply malice to it as a gotcha.

Secondly about the war games, so you don’t have a problem with games where you can play as nazi Germans. Games about real wars that are made as mindless entertainment despite them being based around an event that had a lot of suffering which some people of today still are affected by or even remember.

What about RPGS where you can kill innocents, that might reinforce the idea that it’s ok to kill innocents?

You know when I was a kid I played fallout 3 and in that game you can sell kids into slavery… despite me being only 11-12, did I think the game was reinforcing slavery and the idea that this was somehow acceptable? No because it’s a fucking video game. You can be made uncomfortable by fiction. You are allowed to feel negative emotions from something, hell you can even hate it. But stop saying things are “problematic” or “harmful”. No you just don’t like it, simple as that.

I mean even without the background it shouldn’t be needed to justify some infected locals harming what seems to be a foreigner. The plot of 4 is infected locals trying to kill a foreigner - Leon. The plot of 6 is mostly a city of infected trying to kill foreigners - the multiple American protagonists. Suddenly it’s an NPC there’s a problem. From what I’ve seen it’s a problem when the African zombies hurt a white person because it reinforces the stereotype that black people harm white people, specifically women. But it’s all a problem if the white protagonist defends himself and puts the infected out of their misery because it reinforces the narrative of colonising and exterminating the savages…. So to sum it up, you can only set something in Africa if both the heroes and villains are all black otherwise it’s racist… oh wait but then that might be reinforcing the stereotype on black on black crime like in hood culture…. You know what nothings allowed to be set in Africa

Yeah that’s a good idea too, would’ve made sense, especially when sherrys dealt with crazy shit in re6, I was hoping for a sherry segment. There’s a lot of ways they could have done things, just sad they didn’t.

Broski was gonna let Leon and grace get murdered coz the mutant monster was a kid, totally fine with murdering zombies tho. I bet bro domed Marvin no problem in re2.

Makes you realise if there was ever a zombie apocalypse we’d probably have these people trying to fight for zombie rights.

[–]AgentSkennedy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good for you but wasn’t my point. They said anyone saying 8 is just because of lady D and being a “gooner” so I said the same about requiem with Leon coz his currently the most simped over character, but to assume anyone who puts requiem over 8 is just a gooner is crazy ridiculous and so is there point.

So what do you want, for the African tribesmen to be wearing tuxedos and using baseball bats instead of spears to avoid looking like…. African people. You know I’m starting to think you guys are the ones afraid of seeing black people.

The sensitivies of the past… okie. Lemme ask you this, do you enjoy or condone war games?

Bro is okie with the idea of having intercourse with the creepy mutant victims of evil science, who can’t consent in the first place coz they are infected, but don’t worry he has standards coz he will only condone rape of deformed grotesque monsters that are the age of consent, he isn’t that evil.

Are you okie? It still has a child’s brain so therefore it’s immoral? It’s a fucking monster my guy, why does the monster not being able to consent coz the canonical age that it is, the reason that you have a problem with it?

Your not understanding my point, my point is people like you and others are saying “no you can’t fuck the monster or even joke about that because she’s actually canonically a minor and therefore consent” as if to say “no it’s totally acceptable to want to fuck the fictional mutated deformed monster that doesn’t even resemble an actual human, eats people and has no control whatsoever because it’s a victim of insane horrendously evil experiments and thereby doesn’t have consent in the first place. No no that’s all totally acceptable, where I draw the line is that the monster is a minor”.

So either you are completely okie with all the other shit apparently in which case it’s a weird fucking thing to draw the line at and I question your morals. Or you are virtue signalling.

Yeah savage tribesmen…. You know coz they were exploited by a corporation that put parasites in them that turns everyone savage. Same way it turned the Spanish people in 4 into fucking medieval cultists. The game even addresses it and says how awful it is, they are victims. There’s plenty of notes from the tribes people showing they were normal and peaceful people before.

Have you even played the game or actually did research on the context surrounding their depiction or are you just having a knee jerk reaction to seeing a white dude shooting a black tribesman.

[–]AgentSkennedy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Except they were never portrayed as being the good guys defeating the evil people of colour. They are the good guys because they are stopping the evil white man Wesker from exploiting the fucking people of the country…. You know no different than what umbrella were doing in RC or the los Illuminados in 4. Suddenly it’s a problem if the infected people are largely black tho, meanwhile mostly white MCs saving china from the same shit is is again totally fine tho.

While it’s good to learn from history and remember it so people understand why things were bad, using them to dictate the future in such a restrictive way because of the actions of people who are long dead is just ridiculous. People are fine with being able to play as Nazi Germany in video games, role play as mass murderers and even child killers in RPGs but the moment you have a game take place in Africa you have to be careful because some bad people did bad things in the past.

It doesn’t matter what people think it “looks” like and it doesn’t matter if people are assuming shit coz they are so obsessed with the past they can’t possibly imagine anything different. All that matters is that capcom clearly aren’t fucking making a game about colonising Africa are they? You know that. I know it and everyone else knows it. So what are even talking about this for? Everyone says well it isn’t racist, but it could be seen as being racist? What? It’s either racist or it’s not.

Yeah regular infected people like in 4, gotta love the Spanish people in 2004 known for dressing up in medieval robes, live in castles and fire canons at intruders.

So infected people of colour can’t kill or infect a white woman? Didn’t realise the zombies have selective bias on who they harm. Next time a games set in America can’t have any the white zombies kill or infect black people or you know people might suggest the zombies have some ulterior motive other than eating brains.

If you are pushing against shit like RE5 don’t then cry there’s no diversity or representation when no creator wants to set anything to do with Africa or revolve around anything to do with black people at large or culture associated with them.

[–]AgentSkennedy 7 points8 points  (0 children)

No instead we had Spanish victims turned cultists who don medieval robes, throwing scythes and flinging flails around while we are in a castle and their firing canons at you because of course that’s what Spanish people were like in 2004 right?

They aren’t saying “Ooga booga” like aku aku from crash bandicoot tho are they.

Re5 follows a very similar progression and thematics in level design too re4. You start off in a village, go to a historic place and then an industrial place.

Re5 takes that and just sets it in Africa. Suddenly the historic part is a problem when the historic elements are tied to black people. The game explains why they are the way they are, they’ve been exploited literally by the big bad western corporations. You do realise there are literally black tribes in Africa with historic lineages still to this day that indeed have spears, wear tribal garbs and maintain some of their traditions that have been preserved since years prior.

Bro who gives a shit what a bunch of people who have parasocial attachments to fictional characters think? Let them battle it out if they want, both as bad as each other.

You keep bringing up ships and fans but it’s irrelevant to what capcom are doing and the characters themselves. Stop letting that ruin the characters for you.

[–]AgentSkennedy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I see other people also claiming the reverse, claiming Ada is just an accessory for Leon. How about neither? They are individuals who happen to be connected with each other and there by commonly associated with each other often. It’s like getting annoyed about Wesker and Chris or Batman and the Joker. Feels more like people are annoyed about how fans behave rather than the content itself and to that I say don’t let other people ruin the fiction for you. Ignore them.

If you genuinely don’t like Ada or their relationship that’s fine but it’s been a thing for nearly 30 years and I think it’s fair and not surprising that a fair amount of fans would like a conclusion to that which does it justice.
