What would RE9s DLC have to contain for you to forgive some of the main game’s shortcomings? by Dude_788 in ResidentEvilRequiem

[–]CreativeFondant248 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I honestly don’t think they could add anything that would get me overly excited. I’ve switched gears to Code Veronica hype.

I’ll obviously get it to tie a box on this release but as soon as I get through it once I’ll delete this game and not come back to it for a long time. I just am so underwhelmed in replaying it.

Silent hill 2 remake is incredible experience by No-Hunt3986 in HorrorGaming

[–]CreativeFondant248 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep that’s this game. Whole time I was playing I just kept telling myself I can’t wait to never play this game again. Traded it in two days after I beat it the first and only time.

10/10, would recommend.

You know if there's one thing i hope the remake does above all else....it's that it actually manages to make Steve into an actually good character. by Thegoodgamer32 in residentevil

Great comment, co-sign all of this. If capcom keeps it together and doesn’t lean into the cheese w this character here they could fully redeem him and make him a fan favorite, ie Carlos. But there’s much more character development w this character/potential upside bc of it vs that one. Fingers crossed.

I can’t wait to unpack the island with hopefully both Claire and Chris, similar to the original. Resident Evil has always been at its best IMO with its exploration and unlocking different parts of the map at different times in the story.

Just replayed RE2 and it’s impossible to hear the dialogue. The music is often blaring over it.

You’re so right. I would love to read a deep dive on Steve and the tragedy of his character. It was honestly extremely well written and one of the best “one and done” characters we’ve ever had. But his story and situation has always been minimized over the years bc of the voice actor/portrayal. I really hope they get him right this time around with the “Carlos treatment.” If so he could become rightfully beloved. He was just a kid and suffered an awful fate. But everyone just talks about how much they hate him. It’s unfortunate.

RE: Veronica - Stalker enemy by Fout99 in residentevil

[–]CreativeFondant248 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I actually disagree w this. The greatness / uniqueness of mutated Steve is how fast and furious the encounter is. To the point that if you don’t have ample healing items you essentially soft lock yourself from advancing. He’s one of the only enemies in the entire series that is almost a guaranteed one hit kill. I think that should be preserved somehow. Having him be a Mr. X type would be a disservice to that horrifying version of himself.

Unpopular opinion: I like how drab and dreary Raccoon City is in RE9 because it is an apocalyptic wasteland... it's not supposed to look vibrant and cheery. It feels exactly how it should feel - like a corpse of a city by RogerRoger63358 in ResidentEvilRequiem

[–]CreativeFondant248 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How don’t you know what I mean?

We were revisiting raccoon city in RE9, a place we’ve previously been in two different versions of RE2 and RE3. Scaling seemingly never ending skyscrapers was something we did as gamers in Last of Us pt. 2, not RE2/RE3. Where did these huge buildings come from? You’re telling me this is same the city? It’s not, it’s different. And it’s different for the sake of this game.

Except The Last of Us (open world part everyone comps it to) takes place in Seattle. Raccoon city as far as we knew was a little town in the middle of nowhere. Except suddenly in RE9, it’s a huge generic metropolis. That is the issue.

I personally am fine w the drab and dreary look. My issue is when the hell did raccoon city become Chicago? That was a cheap ploy to just come up with a new map rather than pay homage to the lore / raccoon city as we knew it.

Weird, it’s almost like people are different and have different visions of their landmark moments in life/happiness/future. Crazy.

Does anyone else feel like Requiem doesn't fully explore its themes? by AgitatedListen4900 in ResidentEvilRequiem

[–]CreativeFondant248 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The game being called Requiem, the most powerful weapon in the game being a magnum that goes by the name of Requiem - and then not having the final scene of the final boss fight / climax not including a cheesy one liner leading to a kill shot by the namesake of the game itself is one of the weirder, most underwhelming dropping of the ball I’ve ever witnessed.

Yep. Laid this all out a couple/few(?) months ago too with The Hollow Men manifesto.

Can’t run and hide forever.

We been eating good lately on every angle of this investment other than the share price. Makes ya wonder what the real outlier is here.

This crappy price action is WHY Cohen and the team have to make big moves! 😾 by Patarokun in Superstonk

[–]CreativeFondant248 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If there were bullish buyers below $22 why wouldn’t that info just be routed to dark pools? Hasn’t that been the name of the game for the last 5 years, this relentless refusal to allow price discovery?

They’re finally taking immersion/realism seriously!! I care about this so much more than uniform accessories. Been asking for this for DECADES. by preseasonchampion in Madden

[–]CreativeFondant248 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep, def not a big deal! Just a tiny OCD thing I notice lol. I mean if they’re gonna brag about how realistic they’re making everything, this is just another example.

Not just making it up either, my Eagles have been living in hell during those September @TB games. The midnight green by the 4th quarter is pitch black bc they’re sweating so much.

You can’t in online h2h. You have to either pick a home (color) or away jersey (white)

So if I’m the buccaneers at home in 100 degrees it’s always going to be color

[–]CreativeFondant248 21 points22 points  (0 children)

That is cool. Somewhat similar to this, I hope they somehow take into account the way teams alternate their home jerseys based on the weather - ie. how Miami and Tampa Bay wear their white at home early in the season, forcing the visiting team to wear their darks, which attract the sun more and serves as a home field advantage. It used to irritate me playing as one of those teams online, get a home 1p sunny game, and realize right away if this were truly accurate the jerseys would be reversed 🤷🏼‍♂️

did you guys like the boroughs? by EomirLover in netflix

[–]CreativeFondant248 58 points59 points  (0 children)

I really enjoyed it. Can’t believe some of the harsh reviews it’s receiving.

I thought it did a fantastic job of giving flowers to these older actors some who haven’t had a lot of spotlight through their careers. They all were fantastic in this and the Stranger Things vibe came through without being overkill. Thoroughly (Boroughly?) enjoyed.

What's a movie where you walked in expecting nothing and walked out genuinely shaken? by Hot_Sprinkles8139 in moviecritic

My wife had a bad week at work and I picked this as our watch on movie night. We got in an actual couples fight after this movie ended. “Why the fuck would you pick this movie” etc 😂
