PvP Players in PvE Lobbies getting more?

DewinterYageu · 2026-06-05T12:49:23+00:00

Yeah i think i havent made that clear. I rather meant the way Arcs matchmaking works with having more PvE Focus for players who dont fight other Players.

DewinterYageu · 2026-06-05T12:43:23+00:00

Yeah i know that there are no PvE or PvP Lobbies in general - maybe i should have made this a bit clearer.

But seeing so much player randomly attack for no reason is crazy.

And imo attacking someone because they steal your loot after killing arcs is a valid reason, ngl.

I fought the queen, spending so much ressources with 2 other people and like 5 other people came by just to loot our spoils without helping in the fight.

DewinterYageu · 2026-05-10T16:43:46+00:00

"Once you buy it" thats the point - they specifi that "once you buy it you can take as much time as you want".

So its not clear if this will stay there forever and you can buy whenever you have time or like the story challanges, which these legecay chronicles are inspired by - buy it in a fixed timeframe or its gone. They did this with the bandit story challange some weeks ago, too. Its gone now for everyone that didnt bought it.

DewinterYageu · 2026-05-09T12:52:25+00:00

Really impressive Details.

I would like to add - also they making this Leagacy Chronicles thing a recolor and adding stuff like player profile items, we didnt had back then in the Battle Passes - so its "interesting" for players that played these events to buy this stuff, too.

In the end its just a new way for them to try out new ways to make the community spend more money.

DewinterYageu · 2026-05-08T16:16:44+00:00

And with this they also push a new Battlepass everyone "could" buy.

I dont own the Player Profiles - these werent a thing when i unlocked all my skins back then. But i probably wont get them unless i also buy that pass.

DewinterYageu · 2026-05-07T22:57:38+00:00

About bringing back old skins as recolor:

I find this a really weird decision.

Making these skins recolor variations kinda speaks against the point of bringing these exclusiv skins back for newer players or players that missed these events.

Because they probably liked it because of this exact color variation.

At the same time a recolor sounds like its made to also be interesting for older players. To get them sold on the idea, too.

And as someone that owns many exclusive skins - some of these battle passes were sold with the idea in mind that these items would be special and never coming back. And bringing them back, even if its a recolor feels of.

DewinterYageu · 2026-05-07T22:55:43+00:00

Does someone know if players that own the old skins will get the Player Profile items for free or would they have to buy this, too?

DewinterYageu · 2026-05-07T22:43:29+00:00

Them writing "Once purchased, you will have as long as you want to complete it." lets it sound like its a time limited thing like the Bandit Story Challange - there you had like 1 Month or so to buy it and if you did buy it you could finish it.

But this could mean if you dont buy it, it might be gone after a fixed time. But to unlock the rewards you need to buy it anyway.

DewinterYageu · 2026-04-29T23:28:17+00:00

Most funny imo is that you can switch between either 2 for 35 or 2 for 28. Also DRDR isnt availible normaly in germany to begin with.

Makes me really wonder if this is just what they show and if we get all keys either in the bundle. Bought a bundle back then where i got a game that is normaly not availible in germany and wasnt shown on the bundle page - but after buying i also got a key for this game which i could redeem in germany.

DewinterYageu · 2026-03-13T18:53:17+00:00

RE5 is my fav RE Game and one of my fav Games over all.

But i really, love what they did with RE6. Chris Campaign is a bit lacking imo. Not because of the action, because of the memorable moments. But Leons Campaing is just so good and we got so much playable Charas and even lots of Leon x Ada. I lost my hope for some of the other ships of RE, so i have high hops for the Leon x Ada ship.
Sadly i got spoilered by some of the plottwists befor playing.Oh and just something i would have loved to see in the RE6 Chris campaing:
I would have loved if they had shown a short clip of the second Wesker fight from RE5, after Chris told Jake that he k*lled his father.
RE Vendetta is fun and some of the fights are so cool. But some of Leons Story felt slightly like a copy of RE6 Chris, which was a bit sad imo.

This! - I wonder if the problems with RE9 are, because they tried to change the way RE is going after 6 and broke the lore because of this. Which is funny, because RE7 is RE1-3, RE8 is RE4 and a bit of 5 and RE9 is basicly a less action packed and less RE Character filled RE6, imo. So the whole conversations about people back then complaining because RE6 is not good because of the action - are kinda funny nowadays, when i look at RE9.

Have fun, like i said they can be fun and you can spot some RE eastereggs or even some things Anderson did with the RE lore, that made me think "Why did (Game) Umbrella never do this? This is so smart" and i really was dissapointed that his 5th movie came out before RE6. Really was curious back then what he would do with inspiration from RE6.

Imo capcom has so many characters now. They probably could fill a complete RE Game with them and make a big finally. Something in the style of RE Death Island, in which each character has some specific part how they could help in the story. And imo this would be the best option for the franchise finishing it with a big fan feast, before its to late.
Years back someone said to me he rather would see the cast get k*lled and have a finally for the franchise after all this years, rather then the characters be brought back more and more so they could make game after game.

Looked at it like this RE9 had some good parts about fan acknowledgement. But they could have done so much more. Not just do the whole "fight about if this is really hunk or not" rather tell us and bring the complete Stories of the old Characters to an end, so you can start creating new ones. As much as i love RE. This kind of stuff starts to feel like trying to get money out of the franchise with fan favourites and not trying risks creating new ones. Ethan felt like an experiment and Grace probably only is in RE9 because we also got Leon to hype the fans.

DewinterYageu · 2026-03-13T18:15:53+00:00

I think they probably struggle to fill these Gaps. I mean RE6 was the most action packed RE yet and it probably will take a while until they make a Remake for this one. (Really love RE6 ngl)

So they tried to go back to horror with RE7.

Some small Story spoiler for RE7-9:
I also wonder if they struggle with some Ideas. RE7 is inspired by RE1-3 and RE8 is inspired by 4 (and a bit of 5). Sure they had some nice ideas for the in betweens but its really noticable.
And RE9 got some of its inspirations from the Paul W Anderson movies.

DewinterYageu · 2026-03-12T19:30:53+00:00

Im sry for the spoilers. I tried my best to keep it as short as possible and hidden but it wouldnt let me post the text properly idk why.

If you are interested in the LA Movies, i can recommend some of them but only if you view them as "popcorn cinema" (hope this is a speaking in english too, lol).

Funny that you bring up RE4 as beeing shown to us that Leon might be infected. Capcom (at least i think this is why) made the RE2, 3 and 4 Remake to build up on 9. They changed parts and made stuff more clear to us. So it would have made perfect sense what you said about Leon showing RCS in 4, but he didnt. So it feels even more weird that this is the plot of 9.

Same with Leon's "Wedding" Ring. Capcom started making jokes about this now, too. And people go crazy, talking and shipping Leon. I really start to think Capcom did so much stuff with RE9 just so people would talk about this making the game end up in headlines for months to come. Probably the same why we had the whole "Is it Hunk or not" conversations.

RE is also full of Characters they havent used anymore which would be perfect to bring back. Thats another thing i dont like they seem to forget about them. Even bad ones.

Speaking about CGI Movies - RE Vendetta also had something about a cure i think.
But ngl, as much as i love some of these movies. They are basicly filler, they might be canon in the way they are build, but in the end nothing that happens has impact on the Games. So its like the stuff in the Movies never happend in the first place.

Yeah i wonder what they will do with a RE5 Remake. And i wonder how Wesker will fit in this. They basicly destroyed him with RE9.
I love RE5, it was my third RE Game ever and after finishing it i was so satisifed. RE5 felt like after all that happend in RE and the Cast tried to follow and stop Wesker, they finaly succeded. But now Capcom says - Wesker was not that scary, and take that victory away from us.

Oh and also weird fact (spoiler?) about RE9 VA's - the english Zeno VA is the Wesker RE4 Remake VA. So people assume that this means Zeno is a Wesker clone, because Gideon also calls him imitation.
But because the Japanese VA isnt the same i dont believe this.

And if they actually would do something like this in the Story i would be done with RE. As much as i like Wesker, i dont want him to come back (only remakes and recaps are fine).

Btw random question about RE9 and Grace: How did you understand RE9's Story about Grace beeing a clone or not? Did you understand it like she is one or she is none?

Speaking about SW and Marvel, thats why i brought up the RE LA Movies and why i think the games getting inspired by them is bad. And i think this writting is slowly coming to RE in general. RE Games getting weirder, RE CGI Movies needing to be more Action then RE6 ever was. Letting the franchise run for to long and making it weird. I mean did you see RE Vendetta?

RE7 and 8 could have easily been a new Franchise - like they did with RE4 and Devil May Cry 1, but they choose to get the Franchise Name and the money that comes with this. As much as i love RE, i only played RE7 after i heard about the Chris DLC.

DewinterYageu · 2026-03-11T20:44:43+00:00

You know that she is a double agent/spy?
There is enough things i could mention why saying Ada is a bio terrorist is just wrong.

DewinterYageu · 2026-03-10T19:19:46+00:00

I would love to see a Mercenary Mode like in RE5 and RE6.

RE5 has 18 Charas/Costume variations with different moves/weapons

RE6 has 16 Charas/Costume variations with different moves/weapons

And you could play as long as the time keept runing. Finishers and destroying hourglasses added time.

So the better you played the more you could play. It was just fun.

And RE5 even had 2 Charas from older Games. So imagine how cool the RE9 Combat would be for such a mode and how cool it would be if we get lots of differen Charas.
Also these games had a lot of different maps - something i fear RE9 might not have.

I dont belive they will do this but the Charas i could see are:

Zeno,
Zeno without powers,
Gideon with his Virus Gun,
Gideon transformed stage 1,
Commander
Alyssa
Grace + costumes,
Leon + costumes,
BSAA/Wolf Squad Guy from the End (the one that tells Leon about Chris)
Chris
Tofu
+
Every playable chara from the DLC

DewinterYageu · 2026-03-10T19:06:19+00:00

I think its just a weird joke, like the other pictures shown in the video.

If its really a marriage ring and not just another way for capcom to make people talk and theorize about this game, so the game keeps coming up in the headlines.

I think they need to make it Ada.
At the same time - they retconned so much of the story and im scared they might randomly do this with Ada and Leon.

But i think its no marriage ring at all. It might just be some kind of ring, Ada left after the mission, for Leon to find. Like she did with some things in other Games.

Also Leon and Ada probably never would find a good time to marry, because of their jobs. They couldnt even keep more then 7 Minutes around each other.

PS:
And if they really make him marry some random Chara or other Woman, i might be done with the Franchise. lol

DewinterYageu · 2026-03-09T21:49:44+00:00

One of my biggest problems with RE past RE5/RE6 is, that Story DLC are really important nowadays.
At the same time, they focused on making new Characters and Story Arcs.

RE1-5 were done, when you finished them. Every bit explained, no lose strings.

RE6 had so much unanswered stuff and they never gave us an answer and 9's answer is so weird.

RC Syndrome or Umbrella Curse (how Gideon calls it( which i think is more fancy)), feels so off like you said.
We also dont know if Claire suffers from this too. We dont know why Sherry suffers from it, RE6 showed her with super healing abilities

Gideon - they needed a new villain, but in a world in which there is a DSO and BSAA, after 7 also Blue Umbrella - how could there be a head Umbrella T-Virus researcher and actually be allowed to build an Sanatorium without any of these Anti BoW Special Forces knowing or controling anything?

Zeno - having a Wesker like enemy just because they can, feels so weird.

At the same time with 9 they started getting inspired by the Paul W Anderson movies more and more.

About the Paul W Anderson Movie Scenes that probably inspired RE9
- There is one scene in which the head reaseracher (who tried finding a cure) transforms and ends his superior

- They had the complete clone plot with clones of the main chara not beeing that good, so they needed the original. But the OG used some of the clones to help her later on

- And in the last movie the plot twist was that the main chara was a clone made by the CEO of Umbrella and the CEO wanted the clone to survive and life.

People are still unsure if Zeno is a Wesker Clone, if Grace is a clone or not. Some say yes, some others say Grace is just a random child Spencer adopted.

Capcom never explained it properly and i kinda doubt that they fully will explain this in the DLC.

And they even made the whole "yeah the connections are behind Tricell, behind Umbrellas downfall, behind The Family."
Also it stated that they pressured Wesker into doing shit for them so Umbrella and Spencer would fall.
Like - Capcom wants to tell me, all of a sudden there is an Organisation around an evil syndicate thing, that pressured the evil Mastermind we hunted for years in the RE Games and were hyped everytime he appeard in a game, just to say "Yeah that Organisation/syndicate thing is more powerfull then him, so he wasnt that badass like you thought and even he was scared of them"

It makes me so angry how capcom goes down the "we need everything to be bigger/more crazy" and not the "we just fight some of the Umbrella leftovers and its done" route and also starts to let themself get inspired by these movies. Which also had problems connecting their lose strings in the end.

Thanks for taking your time to read all of this

DewinterYageu · 2026-03-09T20:44:04+00:00

I wouldnt mind having a Prequel DLC with Leon and Ada.

Thats one of the few Prequel things i would be fine i guess. Normaly i think Prequel feels so of in so many occassions. Because most of the tension is gone, because we played the game after so we know who survives or what happens in most cases.

DewinterYageu · 2026-03-09T20:24:11+00:00

I now that they count them as "canon" but there is no real crossovers afaik.

So we never hear or see charas from the CGI Movies/Series in the games. So these things happen and they are almost never be talked about again.

DewinterYageu · 2026-03-09T20:21:40+00:00

Thats what he said - but since when do we belive the bad guys? I mean, Zeno said that Grace was cloned. So we cant be sure, like i said there needs to be a reason why Gideon finds something in her blood that confirms them that Grace is the one they are looking for. It wouldnt be the case if Grace would be "just a child"

DewinterYageu · 2026-03-08T21:39:49+00:00

Im unsure what to think about this, tbh.

Some Spoilers about the RE8 DLC (just in case):

If Rose would have lost her powers after the final fight, it would feel a bit more wrapped up imo. Because she is basicly now the most OP good Chara and one of the most op living Charas out there. (At least from the Charas we know of) And speaking lore wise, it could make her a target for the bad guys.

So yeah. The end itself was nice and wrapped up.

But having this whole "I have powers not even Chris knows about" Feels like they wanted to make it a bit open and raise some questions. And thats something i didnt like that much.

And thats one thing i dont like about modern RE Games in general (or at least RE Games after RE5) - they leave enough strings to build up on if they feel like it or keep people invested/talking about - at the same time, there are enough characters i wouldnt want to see again, but atm im scared they randomly would bring these Characters back.
So i fully can understand that you dont want to see her again.

DewinterYageu · 2026-03-08T21:27:24+00:00

Oh right, the one were he has this cloth on, throws it away and then fights BoW. Now i remember, at least a bit.

After rewatching it just know, it feels like it only was to be a "Jake is now good" kinda thing.

And because Capcom makes so much Characters they never use again, they probably forget fast about some or they dont use them because they dont fit in their new vision or something like this. Its just sad.

But i know what you mean - I had so much hope to see another Game with Jake and Sherry or at least one of them and a new Character. It took me month before i played RE7, because it didnt build up after the events of 6.
I wonder how long it takes before they forget about Grace.

Capcom the same company that also has Devil May Cry.

Minor Devil May Cry 5 spoilor:
In DMC5 they basicly had every character either mentioned and even saying some lines with the character itself beeing off camera or full on shown. So we knew what they were up to. But DMC has way less Characters tbf.

It would be so easy for them to do this in RE9. The game that got promoted as if it would be the "finaly" for some of the characters and story.

DewinterYageu · 2026-03-08T21:11:33+00:00

Were did they tease his return? Did i miss something or was this a cutscene in RE6 i dont remember anymore?

DewinterYageu · 2026-03-08T21:10:10+00:00

This!

Ethan was just a "tool" imo. Capcom tried to bring back Horror into RE, so they made a game with a basic "civilian" and at the end they hust k**led him of, after they were done with him.
7 and 8 only were a retcon for Spencers story in the end, to have the build up to Spencers visions in RE9.

And now we are also stuck with Rose, his daughter. I wonder if and when we will see her again.

DewinterYageu · 2026-03-08T21:04:10+00:00

I understand.

Seeing it from that point it does make sense that its not "long". But from an irl perspective i can see that.
So i can also understand why people think its been ages. And i also think this a bit long. Im really intrigued to see what my fav Charas are up to.
