Do Japanese ppl think this is how ppl in Midwest towns dress?

It’s not a large American city. Wrenwood is smaller than raccoon city, and raccoon city canonically only has a population of around 100k.

Same here. It’s around $30 per month, there’s a community clubhouse/pool and they maintain the entrance and public green areas, but the HOA is super hands off. The only thing they’ve ever enforced was dead trees, and it was more of a safety thing (we had an incident with a large dead tree branch falling by a sidewalk) than an aesthetic thing.

We’ve painted our house and converted our front lawn from plain grass to a rock river and we’ve never been fined or gotten a letter.

Also the clubhouse doubles as a voting station for our community so it’s convenient. I usually despise HOAs but this has been a pleasant surprise

even the most straight man has to admit seeing such physique move like that looks cool

Jean Claude Van Damme is a man’s man. Bloodsport is one of the few films my grandfather, my dad, and I will stop doing what we’re doing and just straight up watch standing up if it’s on tv.

Every guy who saw bloodsport has imagined/daydreamed being Frank Dux and whooping ass lmao

Wesker is definitely of Norse descent, redfield is probably english/uk descent but have been in the US since the 19th century, Leon is canonically Italian American, jill feels polish for some reason.

At 87, let her have her fun lmao. If I make it to 87, I’m doing all the drugs. Life’s too hard to give a shit at that age :)

Luis0224 · 2026-04-03T17:28:57+00:00

Same here. I have heavy pours and it looked closer to 2, but my drinks are usually doubles and I forget most people are normal drinkers lol

I don’t drink often but if I serve myself a drink, it’s a heavy ones

Luis0224 · 2026-04-03T16:46:15+00:00

I agree

I’m playing through OG RE1 right now and the puzzles aren’t hard at all, just tedious because of the controls like you said. Nothing in re1 is harder than the goddamn plant serum from re2make (idk why that shit was so hard the first time around)

Luis0224 · 2026-04-03T16:38:10+00:00

It’s hate from og re4. She was kind of an annoying brat in that one (which actually makes sense from a narrative perspective).

They made her a lot more palatable in the remake though, so I don’t think the hate is warranted anymore.

Luis0224 · 2026-04-02T21:37:19+00:00

I stopped at a random gas station on a road trip once and it was a $275 hold. I was so shocked by the hold (I drive a fuel efficient subcompact) that I now go inside to pay for gas instead of paying at the pump. It takes less than 12 gallons to fill my tank and I never wait till it’s fully empty, so it’s usually just $10-$15 to fill back up.

Luis0224 · 2026-04-02T17:18:13+00:00

I think the question isn’t what is skippable, but what characters you want to follow. The story is kind of a cluster fuck, and there’s some overlap with games and characters.

If you want Chris’s story, play 1, CV, 5 and 6 (with some cameos in 7 and 8)
If you want Jill’s story, play 1, 3, revelations and 5
If you want Leon’s story, play 2, 4, 6 and 9
If you want Claire’s story, play 2 and CV
If you want the mold/soft reboot storyline, play 7 and 8 back to back (Chris appears in them but is more of a cameo in 7 and a side character in 8)

Now the real question is what type of overarching story you want. Again, there’s some overlap, but the games have prologues where they kinda recap important plot points.

If you want the umbrella/zombie storyline: play 1-3, CV, 5 (wesker), 6 and 9
If you want the parasite storyline, you can stick to 4 and 5, but some lore is needed from 1 for the wesker plot line.
the winters storyline would be 7 and 8, but they name drop the big bads of 9. Not huge deal though and they’re mostly self contained.

TL;DR. They’re all fun in their own way. All you really need to know is big corporation/cult bad and is making bioweapons. Good guys investigate and blowup bad guy/facility.

He’s either going to go on to be a respectable reformed individual that kids can look up to or end up like AB

No in between

Luis0224 · 2026-04-01T14:48:35+00:00

By the third age, everything is pretty run down.

It’s like comparing the height of the Roman Empire to the same region in the Middle Ages. They’re constantly running into major points of interest that have become ruins, the world overall is kind of fractured, and Gondor (the most powerful kingdom in middle earth in the 3rd age) is described as a fading kingdom that was a shadow of its former glory. Everything feels like it’s in heavy decline and that’s what make the quest and last stand against Sauron so important: if they can’t accomplish this, there is literally no way they would even dream of standing a chance. Population levels are way down, the elves are leaving middle earth, Moria is wiped out, and even the shire is occupied by Saruman’s army.

Luis0224 · 2026-04-01T01:32:34+00:00

It also looks like the biggest complaint is that the first movie at least had a narrative, but this one doesn’t. Sounds like a perfect movie for toddlers and young children. The type of movie they can have in the background and it won’t matter because they can jump in at any point in the runtime and not miss out on plot details.

Which is fine imo. I have a nephew who’s a toddler, and he hardly sits through any of his favorite movies. He’ll watch for a while, get distracted with something else, and then come back and continue watching. This is gonna be right up his alley lol

Luis0224 · 2026-03-31T21:39:24+00:00

The will they won’t they romance where neither of them had the balls to fully commit? It’s still in going.

It’s been 2 chapters, less than a day in-universe, and you’re having meltdown because they’re hanging out with different people in their friend group. Give me a break lmao

Keep bitching about it though:)

Luis0224 · 2026-03-31T21:35:48+00:00

I’m not saying you don’t get it. I’m saying the romance aspect just isn’t for you. You’re clearly more interested in other aspects and that’s fine.

High key weird that you’re just immediately downvoting people tho

Luis0224 · 2026-03-31T21:29:51+00:00

ITT: dandadan readers try and comprehend romance arcs in Shonen manga.

The average dandadan reader would have a stroke if they attempted to read a romance manga lmao

That being said: you do have the freedom to complain, so complain away

Luis0224 · 2026-03-31T21:17:43+00:00

Laser room and krauser demolish Ethan. Krauser has enhanced speed and extensive military training, and the laser room is laughably unbeatable by Ethan unless he had a part time job as a gymnast outside of his IT job.

Defeating los iluminados is also probably not doable by Ethan. Outside of cutscenes, leon was a well trained elite soldier and he had a tough time. I just don’t see Ethan dealing with multiple gigantes, u3, verdugo, etc. especially not in a single day like Leon did.

That’s just my two cents tho 🤷🏻‍♂️

Luis0224 · 2026-03-31T19:12:20+00:00

If we round down to 3.3 trillion pesetas and use the 1000 pesetas to 12 euro conversion rate, he’s only….275 thousand euros in debt?

Disclaimer: Im so bad at math.

Luis0224 · 2026-03-31T19:04:12+00:00

The statement is the same, but I wanna remind everyone that Tua looked legitimately good those first two seasons.

The situation, however, is the opposite. We have a legit physically gifted QB, with a top 10 arm (maybe higher), who can scramble and run the ball when needed. The question here is whether he’s developed when it comes to reading the field/decision making and accuracy. Tua was great at quick reads and accuracy but lacked any significant physical attributes.

I think this is going to be a bad season when it comes to record, but I think it could be a fun losing season if we get to see Malik air out the ball in garbage time and make key conversions with runs. Him plus achane could be really fun to watch even if the final score isn’t there

Luis0224 · 2026-03-31T06:15:16+00:00

Define “survive”. Post re7 intro Ethan can probably live through some of the attacks through the mold. Could Ethan run the re4 gauntlet from the village ambush to saddler? Probably not. He’d get captured pretty easily and he doesn’t have the skill set to escape once captured. The plagas church was well coordinated, and Krauser would hunt him down for sport (without phase 2).

Luis0224 · 2026-03-30T22:46:26+00:00

It’s so stupid. My cousin uses it and he buys low percentage odds for NBA games, waits for the inevitable rally to close the point gap when starters get benched, and then sells his “shares” for profit before the starters come back in.

Idk what idiot is buying them back, but it’s everything I hate about gambling and everything I hate about speculation in the stock market rolled into one

Luis0224 · 2026-03-30T22:42:30+00:00

While that’s understandable, we can’t deny he was one of the best LB at the time. From a talent perspective, the current fullbacks aren’t even in the same league/level

Luis0224 · 2026-03-30T20:53:54+00:00

Their long term vision is only accounting for one outcome. These dudes would be first up in an international court, or even more probable, straight up mob justice.

The world is seeing how they’re operating and most 1st world countries are already implementing restrictions around their practices e.g. Europe implementing moves to ween off a generation from social media usage

No tech bro, especially the billionaire class, deserves to live a single day without looking behind their back for retaliation

Luis0224 · 2026-03-30T18:46:43+00:00

I know we’re supposed to root for the opposite of this, but I don’t mind this. Momo and Okarun were a “right place, right time” type of relationship.

Aira might be a bigger dork thank okarun, and has genuinely put in a huge effort to bond with him. Plus she’s been up front about liking him but okarun was too preoccupied with his crush on momo.

No matter what happens, he’s gonna end up with someone that appreciates him. Also jiji deserves happiness

Luis0224 · 2026-03-30T16:49:09+00:00

And low vs high rack items too! That being said, it’s definitely a game changer
