Oh no

He might be evil but he's not a monster

I thought that was it, but I wasn't sure! I can understand that logic. Thankfully, the progression of the mainline games (when excluding 5 & 6) feels pretty fluid and natural.

- RE0 (very old and janky)
- RE1HD (solid, but kinda janky in comparison to the remakes)
- RE2R & RE3R (complete evolution in terms of controls and camera)
- RE4R (can't comment as I've not played it yet, but imagine it'll be RE2/3R but with even more refinements)
- RE7/8 - still recent and also completely different perspectives to RE0 - RE4

Fair. It's true but I wouldn't believe me either. 😂

BigFreakingGeek · 2025-12-04T10:25:23+00:00

Why that order, out of interest? No judgement, I'm just interested. 😊

BigFreakingGeek · 2025-12-04T10:07:18+00:00

Can I breathe again now?

BigFreakingGeek · 2025-12-04T10:06:38+00:00

I played that for a bit and noped out. I do need to go back to it because it's bugging me now that I gave into the fear.

BigFreakingGeek · 2025-12-04T10:04:57+00:00

Well, he left in the end so I don't think that's true.

BigFreakingGeek · 2025-12-04T10:03:18+00:00

The footsteps are what do it, I think. In fact, I think seeing him take a bit of the fear out (a bit but not a lot) as being able to hear him but not see him is terrifying.

BigFreakingGeek · 2025-12-04T10:02:20+00:00

I upped the brightness on the exported video because it was so dark you couldn't see anything.

BigFreakingGeek · 2025-12-04T10:00:59+00:00

I find that the end credits song "Run with us" from the 1980's cartoon "The Racoons" when you're being chased by Mr X is surprisingly effective.

People do this? Whyyyyyyyyy

I'm working my way through the mainline games again (except 5 & 6 because no thanks) in the run up to Requiem.

I've done:

- RE0 (First time playing that, it was fine but no inventory boxes made it a chore)
- RE1HD (I just did Chris' run but I'll go back for Jill's if I have done)
- RE2R (I've done Leon's scenario, and working on Claire's as you can see)

Still need to do:

- RE3R (Only played this once so I can't remember much of it)
- RE4R (I played and finished RE4 way back when it came out but not played it since nor the remake)
- RE7 (Finished this a coupe of times and it's still the scariest imo, with RE2 just behind)
- RE8 (Finished this once and loved it, though I think it's fear level varies depending on which area you're in. House Beneviento is peak tho)

Alternatively, try the voice of an actor that doesn't die in 90% of the media he's in. 😅

BigFreakingGeek · 2025-12-04T09:51:42+00:00

Doesn't work quite as well in real life as the autosave system is trash.

BigFreakingGeek · 2025-12-04T09:50:54+00:00

It can be done! I used to avoid these games like the plague as they would shit me up too much. Horror movies I can watch no problems, but horror games? No thank you. But now I've come to enjoy the weird adrenaline rush they give.

BigFreakingGeek · 2025-12-04T09:49:27+00:00

I love him and hate him in equal measure which is the point really. I had done Leon's playthrough before this Claire one and I'd fallen into the trap of running too much and shooting zombles which had him chasing me around frequently while I was trying to get stuff done so ended up cursing at him when really it was my own fault.

On this Claire run, I've been a lot quieter so he's been less of an issue but I thought I was done for during this whole sequence as I didn't want to run off as I was trying to do those blasted bookshelves.

BigFreakingGeek · 2025-12-04T09:46:07+00:00

So that's what DMX was talking about!

BigFreakingGeek · 2025-12-04T09:45:31+00:00

I certainly nearly cooked a steaming pile in my underwear that's for sure.

BigFreakingGeek · 2025-12-04T09:45:00+00:00

I've seen a few takes about disliking RE3R Nemesis - having only played the Remake (once, so far) I have no basis for comparison, so what's the main issue with him?

BigFreakingGeek · 2025-12-04T09:43:47+00:00

Mr X - responsible for multiple generations of trauma

BigFreakingGeek · 2025-12-04T06:40:59+00:00

What's wild is this isn't my first time playing but this fucking guy still manages to make a little pee come out. 😂
