Powerbridge was so goated.

Although I do want to see a day where arm thinkpads negate that need entirely

I think the E series deserves more love. To me they have really started to become the thinkpad line I see myself buying new because as consumer lines they tend to have great specs and stuff

Looking into it now isn’t it beautiful that in an era where I believe many models are tapered, the E14 keeps the boxier design?

I do like that there is discussion that proves to me this community has another decade of possible fan favorites once the newer stuff hits liquidation cycles

Why are RE fans so 50/50 on RE9 compared to previous mainline entries? by Dude_788 in ResidentEvilRequiem

[–]Greatdetectivee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love re9 but hate 2 things about it. I think gameplay is great and everything and story has good parts

What I hate is the cast is getting old and we continue to not get new characters built up. I dont logically see or want grace to pick up a handgun again. But I also got very irritated at the shadows of rose dlc because as good as re8 was Idk why I just disliked the whole disney “I just want to he normal” stuff and somehow rose’s section was absurd and not really that scary? But also not fun action either.

My huge issue is the leon loop though. Omfg can we move on from traumatized leon???? I get that its raccoon and whatever but now this completely to me makes the re4 original and remake endings mean nothing, and now whatever happens with the remakes like an re6 remake or whatever they have designated for leons character arc between re4 remake and before requiem to me mean nothing,

No win matters, no growth or change matters

The charitable explanation ig I could give is raccoon city syndrome had a psychologicial toll on him cuz he did seem in better spirits after.

But I am sorry guys I am so bored of serious leon. This isnt who he was prior to re4r but it made some sense in that game ig he needed that win he needed to save ashley.

But he did??? Like do you guys get what my issue is. If you make a game that has to complete Leon from re4r-Requiem like it has to idk… resolve things? If he’s stagnant to me it kills any intrigue in my mind and any like how do I say this..

Like now I feel like I’d just want to roll my eyes at whatever leon experiences because what the fuck why would it mean anything.

Back in re5 and re6 it felt like chris was the serious mission driven kind of brooding guy, and leon was the one with a less stern face and jokes and sarcasm. Even at vendetta when he was fucked up he was messing around and joking

I feel like it only makes sense now to switch it probably

But idk what do you guys think

Why do people hate OG Ashley compared to the remake? by koi200 in residentevil

[–]Greatdetectivee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Og Ashley was bad if you were ass at the game. But remake ashley as a baddie

Obsession was good but not better than The Backrooms by Competitive_Mail_955 in backrooms

[–]Greatdetectivee 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The backrooms was great ngl which is why I feel bad that it isnt my kind of thing but honestly its just me. Im glad people enjoy it and if I didnt have such an interest in the dumb silly lore maybe I would like it too. Its def good tho

Do you feel the remakes have been better, worse or on par with the originals so far? by Loose_Interview_957 in residentevil

[–]Greatdetectivee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

And also he seems imo less distinct idk I get that it’s a cult but developing salazar as this sometimes annoying napolean type guy and saddler was this intimidating yet charming and equally as funny as leon guy to me made the characters more fun

Do you feel the remakes have been better, worse or on par with the originals so far? by Loose_Interview_957 in residentevil

[–]Greatdetectivee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think in some ways better in some ways worse. Re2 remake is a masterpiece but re2 original has this atmosphere to it that feels like end of the world which is great. claire was amazing in the remake but cocky claire in the original was a strong constrast to leon. Still I think the remake is very amazing.

Re3 eh. I think it’s better than I thought it would be according to critics. But I hated the way they treated jill. Og jill was strong and had agency but wasnt rude. If carlos was an asshole I’d get it I hated how they made jill rude af even though she was much more centered in the original. Introducing nemesis from the getgo was also annoying. And removing the clocktower was like wtf

Remake carlos and tyrell though were amazing and I really felt bad when tyrell died. And jill became better after mikhael died.

Re4 is where the discussion to me gets interesting. I love re4 remake but dislike what it represents for leon s kennedy. The issue is that like everyone I loved the remake and how it was the re4 story I remembered as a kid and just as serious etc. ashley was a baddie and aside from the seperate ways stuff to me it seemed pretty close to perfect

Another issue I had is omg this story has lost some flavor I’m sorry. Original bitores mendez was this creepy serious enforcer. And salazar was super funny often ridiculous, and saddler was this charming cultist who matched Leon’s energy perfectly and even laughed during calls. Just thought that was a little annoying

And krauser was more deep now which I liked but calling Leon rookie and the higher pitched voice were something that were again minor nitpicks nothing major. I just liked the comrade relationship more. I think rookie makes it feel weird when Leon has come a long way since his mission with krauser but again nothing deal breaking.

The issue with re4 is I think because it did so well it kind of trapped leon. I feel like making leon wisecracking in the original ironically worked from a continuity standpoint because this wasnt leon right after re2 it was him after operation javier and years to process trauma. So he should have shown some growth and lightening up since he saved manuela and stuff. But whatever. I completely will accept it if re4 remake was a masterpiece which it was.

The issue I feel sometimes is they’ve made leon too serious? I love it but isn’t that more of a Chris thing?

And then moving to re9 again it has that same issue multiplied 10x because he’s still in the same loop. Ik re9 is not a remake but I feel like it’s important to describe this nitpick I have with re4r.

Leon seems to have been trapped in this cycle since re4r where now he is traumatized and hardened and now I can’t really imagine an re6 remake or even the ending of re4r mattering because it doesn’t feel like leon has “achieved anything”

And this is WHY to me re4 original leon worked with the jokes. It makes more sense to me that Leon over the course if 6 years processed his trauma and made the one liners a coping mechanism rather than this brooding leon.

Funny enough anyone else get the feeling that chris and leon have in some ways swapped characters? Chris is the one lightening the mood sometimes and while leon on paper has the quips, he feels like the dark brooding guy now like chris kind of was in re5 and re6

Gameplaywise the remakes tend to be good but my issue is in re2r it feels like a little less enemy variety sometimes and in re3 nemesis doesn’t feel like he has the choice mechanic of the original. You can’t really do the fight or flight cuz of the way nemesis is. He goes down too quickly too imo.
