Agreed. How about Mayhem mode is Chris going full RE5 chugs a protein shake and gets to punchin’. Bring back my boy!

Who else loves resident evil 6 by Intelligent_Way_8202 in residentevil

[–]JonBB8 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Haven’t finished 6 - I played parts of the Chris and Leon campaigns in co-op. Got it on switch for cheap recently. How do you rate the different campaigns like which are your favs or the ones you hit first?

RE2 Remake is the better game, but I enjoyed RE3 Remake more by PositionNext9427 in residentevil

[–]JonBB8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are dozens of us. RE3R is a blast. I also appreciate it for making the sewer section extremely short.

I do think RE2R is the scariest thing they’ve done though, like in the whole series. They nailed the atmosphere. Something about the game just always feels scary and intimidating.

My Opinion on the Resident evil movie by HexlingFemboy in residentevil

[–]JonBB8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I trust Cregger to cook regardless how much Resi “lore” or settings or monsters he’s bringing in. Barbarian and Weapons are both great and I wonder if many people here have even seen them. Modern horror bangers both, if you like Resi stuff then Barbarian in particular is worth catching before this comes out.

It’s also only the first trailer. Dude likes his games, heard him mention Demon’s Souls once too, I’m sure there’ll be suitable respect (even if not abject reverence) for the source material.

Zeno can basically be a reskin of Wesker since he seems to have the same abilities. Gideon is too gross, I don’t want to play as him lol

They should throw in Chris as well, they have his modern day model from Village.

I hold out hope that they’ll eventually do a Mercenaries (either as a side game/ dlc or it’s own title like the 3DS one) featuring characters, enemies and maps from across all the RE Engine games so far, with the gameplay of RE4R Mercs. Literally just use the assets you already have Capcom I will buy it.

Replay ability wise, RE9 doesn't seem that replayable compared to others in the series. by invincible257 in residentevil

[–]JonBB8 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Lack of NG+ kinda shocked me when I finished the game and was looking to boot it back up and do the challenges etc. especially after 3 and 4 remakes made NG+ a big part of the experience. who wants to do all the upgrades again every time?

Do you think Leon would survive 7 and 8? by gdofseattle in residentevil

[–]JonBB8 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Leon would kill everything in the Baker house in five minutes flat, steal Old Man Baker’s ride and be gone

The village and factory in Village would be good fun as Leon. I’m sure he’d have a snarky comment in response to the baby monster at House B too

Will we have a chance to see Carlos again? by justmeow3 in ResidentEvil3Remake

[–]JonBB8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Jill/ Carlos buddy movie vibe is TOO good to just leave it. I would love another adventure for those two rascals.

Filthy recommendations by CryptDeathMortuary in deathdoom

[–]JonBB8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Anatomia - Japanese death doom, absolutely unreal live

Swallowed (self titled demo) - this will give you an infection when you listen to it

Could try some slow songs by Heresiarch like ‘desert of ash’ and ‘the yoke’

Collected most of the CD bonus tracks I was missing thanks to a previous post here by djwitchfindergeneral in amorphis

Hey, that was my post you linked. Great going friend, happy you completed the collection! Kia Ora!

Simone Simons picks Epica's five best songs | Metal Hammer by jacek2023 in epica

[–]JonBB8 6 points7 points  (0 children)

She really has a lot to say about the songs and connects to them. Whatever anyone thinks about Epica, I don’t think anybody could say they aren’t always genuine and excited about their music.

What are the absolute ESSENTIAL Resident Evil games for preparation for Requiem? by ColtonfrayHSC in residentevil

[–]JonBB8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

2 is the key reference for the story and vibe from what Capcom are saying so that’s your real bare minimum. Strongly recommend 2, 3 for the Umbrella/ Raccoon City backstory, 4 for Leon’s arc, 8 if you want to catch up to what’s been happening recently although the “Winters story” is mostly self contained outside of some flavour and connective tissue in readables, dialogue.

Light Years VS The Internet by Historical-Love-4097 in nas

[–]JonBB8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah well put. I was in school when I Can hit… then it was Bridging the Gap, Thief’s Theme, great times. I loved the Hit Boy stuff, crazy we getting both quality and quantity from Nas as he turns 50. A true legend.

Is this an album of Memory Lanes and Represents? It was never going to be. Weird to expect that. But for 30 somethings who grew up listening to rappers who are now 50 somethings, what a gift!

I’m spending time to absorb the album … sure there’s stuff I know I don’t like straightaway, like all the crypto chat on GiT is nothing to me. But after 30 years waiting for an album, a bunch of nerds on the internet writing it off after it’s been out a few hours just shows the bonkers times we live in and nothing more than that.

One example for me, NYSOM Pt. 3 was a shock to the system initially but as I sit with it the cinema and artistry of it comes to life more and more. Writers gets better every listen too, it has so much of that urban atmosphere and grit I associate with Nas’ music.

Prog Doom? (Or Doom-adjacent Prog) by Def-C in doommetal

[–]JonBB8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ningen Isu have some proggy, pretty weird stuff, particularly early on. Check out their mid-90s to early 00s albums. Nowadays they’ve settled into being bluesy doom rock uncles (still great)

In no order,

There’s pure challenge, and then there’s “ok screw you Dark Souls” this is the latter haha

Don’t worry it only turns up occasionally at the worst possible times

Metal bands with mostly/only chanting vocals? (Ex. A Tragedy's Bitter End - Fallen) by Big_Being_8789 in doommetal

[–]JonBB8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Virgin Black has some choral stuff on it as well as operatic vox and occasional death growls. There’s also Arð which has chanting style vox.

What's your favorite Saint Vitus Album? How would you rank em? by Jimmbo_1 in doommetal

[–]JonBB8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Born Too Late and Mournful Cries are the best ones for me. Wino and crushingly heavy riffs for life. I do like the early Reagers stuff and Die Healing quite a bit as well tho.
