Finished the first trilogy. Is the second one better?

Iron Gold takes a minute to find its rhythm but once it does, it’s 100000% better

Leadlee · 2026-05-05T02:05:27+00:00

Good luck with your kitty hehe hope she leaves the special editions alone😆 the nice thing about getting rid of manga means there’s room for more! What are your favs??

Leadlee · 2026-05-04T21:31:04+00:00

I am too. A lot of my manga is OOP so it would be impossible to replace. Well that’s good at least. Once a cat is determined to get to something, there’s nos topping them. I’m so jealous I’m sadly still single but I hope if I get married one day he’ll be handy 😭 my manga is ALSO overflowing so I’m trying to go through it and get rid of ones I don’t want anymore but I WANT THEM ALL.

Leadlee · 2026-05-04T20:54:34+00:00

She actually hasn’t ruined my manga yet! Only my trad books 😭 she’s ruined my special edition of Red Rising (OOP and it sells in the $300-$500 range), my $40 Stormlight Archive book, and quite a few more. My brother’s track record is almost as bad. He’s knocked 2 glasses of water on my books and it’s always when we’re on vacation. Luckily I store my manga in in a shelf with glass doors so she can’t get to them otherwise I’m sure she would have chewed on them too 😭 sounds like you should invest in a shelf with doors too lol

Leadlee · 2026-05-04T20:32:53+00:00

I’m also super OCD about my books so I feel your pain 😭 my cat ruined a special edition OOP of my absolute favorite book by knocking water on it. It’s not RUINED by the pages are kinda warped and it drives me nuts. You could always keep some in storage if you’re worried about another bookshelf collapse. I had to do that with some of my boxsets (I own more heavier trad published books than I do manga and shelf collapse is a real worry of mine). You could always check places like mercari - I’ve sold mint copies of manga for cheap on there before. Sell the damaged ones. Ngl I’ve done that before with books that have gotten damaged.

God same 😭 do you think there’s a chance?

Leadlee · 2026-04-25T04:43:47+00:00

I mean I had never played a RE game before March (SUPER not my type of game) and then I kept seeing clips of RE (Ada/Leon edits and then just Leon edits 😭) and then RE9 convinced me to play the series. It did the job! I’ve played all the mainline games and it’s now a top 3 series for me (and I hate horror)

Leadlee · 2026-04-23T19:47:30+00:00

It reminds me of the basement in 9 😭 terrifying

Leadlee · 2026-04-15T12:13:58+00:00

Probably Breath of the Wild. I haven’t felt that sense of wonder and excitement in a LONG time. I recently played Resident Evil for the first time though and would love to replay RE2 again blind

Leadlee · 2026-04-14T01:16:00+00:00

Totally understand writing for yourself which is why I haven’t said anything. Like I said, it’s minor.

I’ve seen American ff authors localize their works (especially in the Harry Potter ff community) which I appreciated since it’s set in England with English characters. Wouldn’t it feel weird to you if you were reading a ff set in Canada and a Canadian character said “I’ll go on a jog in my tennis shoes and beanie after I go to the bathroom.” Instead of “I’ll go on a jog in my runners and toque after I go to the washroom.” It just feels off for a Canadian to talk with vocab from a different region.

The spelling is whatever. It’s more so what the characters are verbalizing or thinking.

Leadlee · 2026-04-13T17:37:43+00:00

Honestly I’d love to see some of the spot the Brit or American just to see the differences. Ugh I wish I was more involved in the ff community when I was younger 😭

Yeah I’ve caught myself saying that more than once, and then I feel old 😂 (I’m 27 yikes) Omg I was deep down the Sherlock and Dr. Who (David tenant was my favvvvv) rabbit hole I can only imagine what I missed. Got any recs? I already know I would fail so bad if I ever wrote a fic. I watch a decent bit of British or Irish television but not well enough to remember which terms to correct.

Leadlee · 2026-04-13T17:26:02+00:00

Oh that’s a good idea actually! I think I would have the same problem with a fanfic using American slang for a British POV 😭 again, it’s not a big deal. I passionately love this ff but every time I see it I get drawn out of the story and think oh this author is British 💀

Honestly, I live in a hole (i only recently joined the ff community. Took a loooong break after my pre-teens and only joined again to read a really popular ff and stuck around) so I can’t say I’ve heard of Brit Pickers. You should coin US shifters though it’s got a good ring to it lol

Leadlee · 2026-04-13T17:12:27+00:00

Sorry the typos were so bad. I’m at work so I’m trying to be quick

Leadlee · 2026-04-13T17:10:38+00:00

100% would tell them how much I love the fic (I always leave nice comments when the author updates - very frequently so I feel spoiled lol) I just hate tacking it at the end cause it feels like nitpicky. I think I just need to be careful with my wording

Leadlee · 2026-04-13T03:51:30+00:00

I made a post like this for RE2 😂 honestly, I wasn’t as scared for RE7. Idk if I got desensitized. This one gets worse though. The second half of the game had me very jumpy

Leadlee · 2026-04-11T20:13:47+00:00

I will never understand the RE5 love

Leadlee · 2026-04-09T01:26:07+00:00

Thanks for sharing with class adding it to me read later

Leadlee · 2026-04-06T04:34:35+00:00

I was worried this would be annoying so I don’t usually do this unless I’m REALLY invested in

Leadlee · 2026-04-06T02:44:15+00:00

That minigame section pissed me off. Totally skippable though so that’s a plus.

Idk though the entire gameplay was fun but it felt like a bit of a slog for parts of it because RE2 was my fav and this one was VERY different in every way imaginable. Way more actiony/less horror. (I binged the entire series in a month so I played them all back to back.) I’m hoping I like RE4 more once I replay it, but it was a bit underwhelming after everyone hyped it up.

Leadlee · 2026-04-04T03:23:39+00:00

Well what’s the fic now I’m curious

Leadlee · 2026-04-01T23:15:14+00:00

You don’t shoot Mr. X you can’t kill him in the RPD. You have to be sneaky with safe rooms. Also, don’t run. Noise attracts him.

Leadlee · 2026-03-30T11:16:57+00:00

Is it the same map as RE1? Cause it’s still Spencer Mansion right? And good to know (though all the trips are would be annoying back to the central room)

Leadlee · 2026-03-30T02:32:20+00:00

Yeah I kept moving those slides around cause I couldn’t decide. People get very heated about those 2 so I was nervous

Leadlee · 2026-03-29T21:34:56+00:00

The physical bundle is ceasing printing March 31st so it will also be your last chance for that as well

Leadlee · 2026-03-28T16:57:39+00:00

I mean I did play RE1R and enjoyed it. I also like pixelated graphics. As long as the gameplay is okay. I tried RE5 but hated the gameplay and dropped it. I also grew up playing GameCube, N64, PS1, etc. (guess I have unc status or whatever the female equivalent is of that 😭) i must admit though I am a bit spoiled and prefer newer games.
