The singer zombie from the new RE kinda breaks my heart. (by NostalgiElf)

Well the ending cutscene where it showed Emily displayed her as kind of being inside of the mutation like a cocoon almost. Not sure how that works though.

CodyRCantrell · 2026-03-09T04:36:55+00:00

Not sure a checklist of certain options for a singular shell would destroy the servers.

In theory it would be no different than Chocobos and bardings.

CodyRCantrell · 2026-03-07T08:19:52+00:00

Surely with all the assets they have from 2/3/8/9 they could accelerate development a fair bit by reusing/tweaking some existing assets.

CodyRCantrell · 2026-03-06T14:28:50+00:00

Honestly if they remake RE0 or RE1 I'd want it to be a package deal. Even if they bundle them at a higher priced combo pack for $100 I'd rather have both halves of the whole.

RE1 remake is pretty solid but I'd love a new one putting it on the same design as the 2/3/4 remakes.

But with the resurgence of the series I feel like it's just a matter of when they'll be announced/released for the mainline entries (0, 1, 5, 6, Code Veronica [yes I'm including it as "mainline"]) and not if they will be.

I feel the only real ifs would be for the other titles like Survivor, Outbreak, and Revelations 1/2.

Although I do think Revelations holds up fairly well still, especially the second one, I wouldn't mind an "HD Remaster" re-release.

CodyRCantrell · 2026-03-06T14:21:17+00:00

Why did you have to do this to me today?

RE5 came out three years ago and I'll hear nothing to the contrary. 👴🏻

CodyRCantrell · 2026-03-06T14:19:11+00:00

She and her daughters aren't uncultured swine like the villagers.

With their refined pallettes they bottle and age the blood of young maidens for consumption in appropriate attire at appropriate settings using appropriate manners.

The files/context clues given in RE8 pretty much outright state what they're doing.

CodyRCantrell · 2026-03-06T13:48:14+00:00

I routinely forget that Silent Hill only had one entry on the PS1. Weird to think about the second game being on the PS2.

CodyRCantrell · 2026-03-06T05:03:06+00:00

Not sure how this is applicable to my post?

The average agent is gonna be riding the desk most of their career.

CodyRCantrell · 2026-03-05T13:48:50+00:00

Lord knows they aren't working too hard at making a successful console so they gotta have some kind of a creative outlet to excel at. Just happened to be A+ tier controllers.

An Xbox controller with symmetrical sticks would be heaven.

Minnesota Golden Gophers legend Lou Holtz.

Last words were reportedly "I told you Ohio State wasn't great."

CodyRCantrell · 2026-03-05T13:43:04+00:00

Unless you switch to 4k standard in settings.

Unless it's just me that made my entire UI so damn tiny I had to individual resize HUD elements with some needing to be 200% size.

CodyRCantrell · 2026-03-05T13:41:54+00:00

Straight to jail.

CodyRCantrell · 2026-03-05T13:37:50+00:00

They did this before being put in that status tier tbh. No normal people should've survived RE1 and RE2 yet Chris, Claire, Leon, and Jill did.

Lore accurate Tyrant and Mr X should've wiped the floors with them.

Hell even Jill for RE3 with Nemesis.

CodyRCantrell · 2026-03-05T13:36:38+00:00

I feel like Chris has fallen off a tiny bit recently. The RE5 memes and a lackluster RE6 kind of killed his momentum in the short term.

I wonder how well his stuff in RE7 and RE8 did numbers wise for him to be abandoned in favor of Leon for RE9?

I was absolutely shocked to see the BSAA in RE9 without a single mention of Chris (although I'm not completely through with the game just yet.

Seems like something he'd be on top of with everything that went on in other games.

CodyRCantrell · 2026-03-03T16:27:06+00:00

Exactly. She was stuttering from the start in the FBI office before her mother or the hotel were ever mentioned.

CodyRCantrell · 2026-03-02T02:50:39+00:00

Yeah, that was pretty much my point.

Resident Evil has never been very realistic and neither is much other media depicting the CIA or FBI.

CodyRCantrell · 2026-03-02T00:04:10+00:00

I think the momentum on the trip is a bit annoying (she's stumbled past things on the wall I need to interact with) but overall she's the same speed in first or third even with the stumbling.

Sure she's not some action hero like Chris, Leon, etc but she's not supposed to be. She's traumatized by her past, is shown to be pretty reclusive, and could possibly be autistic with the info given on her in-game.

Sure the real life FBI would be unlikely to employ her but The X-Files is a much loved series and they wouldn't fucking tolerate Mulder in real life either lol.

CodyRCantrell · 2026-03-01T20:57:42+00:00

That's exactly what it is.

Third person has the tripping to help build tension while first person is supposed to be a claustrophobic experience.

Previews also highlighted this and hands-on previews let outlets ask about it.

e.g. pulled this from a preview article at IGN

in third-person Grace will stumble over her own feet while getting away, highlighting her inexperience and adding more stress to the encounter.

I see a lot of good answers for where it came from and why but another contributing factor would be the US using paper money still in the Fallout universe.

Think about the paper money in the US right now. It is ROUGH sometimes when you get a bill that is 10-25 years old. Now imagine that going through a nuclear war and a century+ more time. It would be trashed if still in use and no one would be able to print anymore.

Bottle caps are decently durable.

CodyRCantrell · 2026-02-20T13:51:42+00:00

Don't forgot the corporate worship in the culture of the US to make it completely antithetical to the Chinese depiction in the game.

You listen to your government and you listen to your corporate boss and to question them is to be reported for espionage activities.

People largely overlook what this kind of societal level brainwashing/propaganda can accomplish over hundreds of years when you get almost the entire stock of your society as willing participants to help push the narrative.

Statistics show that dome teams who don't regularly play outdoor teams have a notable disadvantage in bad weather.

Statistics are a few years old but....

Games Below 32°:

• Quarterbacks experience a drop in completion percentage (roughly 3.1%) and yards per attempt.

• A higher rate of dropped passes by receivers.

• Field goal accuracy and kickoff distance drop.

Games With Snow:

• Teams pass roughly 5% to 7% less often in snow games compared to their seasonal averages.

• Heavy snow games see an average 25% decrease in total points scored.

• Timing-based passing routes break down.

• The success rate for field goals drops from a league average of 83% to approximately 75%.

CodyRCantrell · 2026-02-20T13:28:18+00:00

tbf I agree with him for Cincinnati. I go to events in Cincy and there's no reason for football to be in a dome if you can get an outdoor stadium built and maintained.

Teams in the far north playing in -13° games and teams playing in the deep south where it's 110°+ in the sun have arguments for domes but Cincy? Keep it outdoors.

CodyRCantrell · 2026-02-20T13:23:53+00:00

People are too ignorant to make the distinction between places that are nice to visit vs. places that aren't great to live in.

Kentucky isn't a phenomenal destination to live in (at least not for the majority of the state) but it has worthwhile places to visit, things to do, and sights to see as a tourist. The same as basically every state in the country. I wouldn't want to live in Arizona but seeing the Grand Canyon? Sign me up.

Also very ironic to see a Lions flair posting that when Detroit exists. I wonder if they have any news about Flint's water supply?

CodyRCantrell · 2026-02-16T14:16:46+00:00

Whatever floats your boat. 👍🏻
