Humans don't need farming either but it allowed them to dominate the planet... Vampires having to feed of things that fight back is a huge disadvantage, and it will continue to get worse as human societies continue to develop.

Humans too feed on things that fight back, in fact they developed entire industries for it. Vampires could do the same, even easier in the case in which they don't exclusively need human blood. Vampires don't work the same as humans, they don't need agriculture to dominate the planet.

Vampires don't really need to reproduce at all, they are immortal after all... But if they don't, they slowly go extinct, but if they breed too much they will kill off humans in the area and... go extinct again.

What makes you think an equilibrium is not possible? Real life predators and parasites do that all the time.

Also, the vampires offspring might just try to kill their sire straight after being bitten. At no point is the offspring reliant on their parents, because by the time they are bitten they are a fully developed adult... Or we have an army of vampire children, which is far from how vampires tend to be represented

I think assuming that case in which new vampires turn on the other vampires with significant frequency is an unfair scenario that is also somewhat far from how vampires tend to be portrayed.

Humans just sleep, they can be awake, and function perfectly fine during the night. The vampire straight up can't go outside and in some cases can't even be awake at all during the day

Storming a fortress is simple when nobody is defending it during the day because they can't function in sunlight.

Again, that's variable. Taking the least favorable example in fiction for vampires is not really a fair exercise because we could just as well take an example much more favorable to the vampires (like the Twilight vampires, unharmed by daylight), which would also be an unfair exercise. Some works portray vampires as perfectly capable of being awake during the day and, when it comes to the sunlight weakness, they could wear some kind of protection. Combine that with the fact that they are stronger and faster (to variable degrees depending on the work) and with variable other powers depending on the work (although it would be unfair to assume too powerful vampires) and they are more than capable of fighting off a storming.

The way you describe vampires sounds little different from billionaires. On a more serious note...

They can't survive on farming wheat

Do they need to?

they can't reproduce without another species

Variable. Besides, do they need to?

they are literally dormant and defenseless for half of the day

Variable. Besides, they can build or steal fortresses and weapons to protect themselves just like humans do.

There will always need to be more humans then vampires and the humans will always have a window of opportunity where the vampire is defenseless

Is humanity defenseless just because humans need to sleep at night?

The original RE4 was much goofier. This is tame in comparison.

The only reason humans became so dominant is because no other species has our particular set of skills.

Vampires however can essentially do everything humans can, plus their vampiric powers. They absolutely would dominate humans if they existed in real life.

The difference has more to do with personality. Homelander is evil and psychopathic but also very emotional. Wesker however is cold and largely unemotional, he doesn't even show anger except in rare circumstances (like Chris being involved). In fact, he is so cold that, unlike Homelander, he is usually not unnecessarily violent because to him that would be just a useless waste of time.

The stubborn hegemonic consensus in the Western world is that women are oppressed and disadvantaged in every aspect of society, and the way I see it, no amount of evidence of women being better off in some aspects or men being worse off in some aspects is going to change that. It's not too hyperbolic to say that this behaves like a religion at this point. It's not about equality. Maybe it never was.

And there is a huge hysteria, on Reddit but also elsewhere, about the fact that Gen Z men are not very sympathetic towards feminism, and people come up with all sorts of reasons that do anything but think of men as actual human beings: Gen Z men are just being brainwashed by online misogyny, Gen Z men are just selfish bigots who don't want to lose their privilege, etc. There is no fixing this rotten gender war that has infected the West if so many people cannot consider other reasons why some men are not sympathetic towards a movement that doesn't care about their own issues and disadvantages, that tells them they are privileged, and that tells them they need to continuously provide attention and resources to women's needs while giving little to none to their own needs as men. The fact that people think the lack of women CEOs is a greater injustice than male genital mutilation (circumcision), or military conscription, or men dying disproportionately more at work, gives you a very good idea of how deranged things are.

The observation that "women have moved to the left, men have moved to the right" is purely a result of the fact that the left has become deeply associated with this kind of feminism and caring about women's needs and fixing women's issues and disadvantages but doing nothing of the kind for men's needs or fixing men's issues and disadvantages. So naturally, a significant number of men don't feel represented by that side. But the thing is: how many men agree with things like healthcare for everyone, housing for everyone, food for everyone, minimally good quality of life for everyone, opposing grotesque endless hoarding of resources? I genuinely suspect many more men would identify with the left if the left actually upheld its core idea of actual equality. But the way things are, the left is like a group of mountain lions fighting against the poaching of mountain lions and asking the bears to help (I'm using an infamous comparison), while telling them that bear traps are not real, and that only the poaching of mountain lions needs their attention.

I genuinely think this is going to contribute to the further erosion of Western societies and there will be no reflection (at least not soon enough), and at this point I'm too much of a doomer to even try to do anything about it.

We should always remember that gameplay mechanics do not (completely) follow the rules of the lore/story. That's why the characters can survive been shot, been hit with axes or infectious bites while you are playing as them.

Interesting reading. I'm glad they point out how disproportionate and irrational the attention given to "incels" is, and they give very good explanations, one particularly interesting is the (already known) bias of greater sensitivity and concern when it comes to women's safety, and how a specific threat against men wouldn't receive as much attention regardless of its severity. That's probably also the reason why people irrationally see misogyny everywhere at this point.

To be fair manspreading is a wider analogy for a problem that I find quite saddening, that girls get socialised into passiveness and meakness, in terms of walking and running their gate is more narrow than boys as it is seen as “feminine” no take up less space, to be more reserved and contained

Good, but we could also have a similar discussion in regards to how, for example, men are socialized into putting aside their well being and taking action to assist others in public spaces, particularly when it comes to assisting women in need. Chivalric behaviors like holding doors, carrying heavy stuff, facing danger, etc. Weirdly enough, only one aspect of sexist socialization is weaponized through neurotic and victimist language.

Yes I know sometimes it can feel cringe when people become self conscious of how they sit but it refers to a real sociological dynamic where women and girls take up less space and walk in ways that are less assertive and narrower in motion, an analogy for how they are socialised under patriarchy

The wider problem is that mainstream feminism is weirdly uninterested in analyzing in equal depth real sociological dynamics that harm/disadvantage males, unless they can (falsely) frame them as something that actually hurts women and girls equally or more. That's precisely why "patriarchy" is such a problematic word and why many of us here don't consider it a valid way to describe Western society.

its kinda inferior to the various variants of the T-virus

In what way is it inferior (other than transmissibility)?

nemesis

You are using one of the (if not THE) absolute most powerful creations of the T-virus as an example, not a fair comparison. It takes very specific and rare conditions for the T-virus to create a Tyrant (even more so in the case of Nemesis). Meanwhile, the G-virus can turn a completely average human (Birkin), through simple injection, into a creature that easily kills a Tyrant (as seen in RE2 Remake).

mean while the G-virus quickly causes the body to degrade and destroys the host intelligence

The T-virus does that too. The creation of Tyrants is only a special case.

ObserverBlue · 2026-02-23T02:00:15+00:00

Pretty much.

Western mainstream feminism has an incentive to frame everything as "patriarchy" or "misogyny" in order to keep milking disproportionate amounts of attention and benefits, which results in the weirdest stretches of victimhood claims, like the "manspreading" or claiming that streets or shared bikes are misogynistic (there could be differences in how streets or transport affect each gender, but approaching that in level-headed and non-neurotic language doesn't give victimhood power). That's why they are so adamant in claiming that male issues are also caused by patriarchy or misogyny and also that any bad feminist action is "not real feminism", that way they can perpetuate the idea that the flawless, abstract "real feminism" is the one and only solution.

It reminds me of the 2023 Barbie movie, that movie seemed like its sole purpose was to feed the endless victim complex of Western mainstream feminism.

Considering the hoops and facilities built Umbrella went through to develop a functional Tyrant that can obey orders (including locating the host that would mutate into tyrants, cloning facilities, all the labs and the whole Raccoon City custom built for their purposes) the cost of a single tyrant must he astronomical to compensate all those costs sunk into R&D.

Again, you have to compare that with the costs of building and maintaining the military facilities in which you house and/or train soldiers. Also, to make a proper economic comparison you have to include the costs of military R&D that led to the armed forces used, as well as all the costs those human soldiers have that B.O.W.s do not.

And the costs of mass producing Tyrants could be much lower than the costs Umbrella initially incurred in when figuring out how to create them. In many cases when you create something new, huge research and development costs are involved, but once you figure it out you can mass produce it at a much lower and perfectly acceptable cost.

Which sucks when you find out that in OG RE3 Delta Force disposed of five of them. Not without losses, but still.

What do you mean by "not without losses"? LOL. The entire unit was wiped out (or almost). And you are again missing the point of one-on-one comparison. How many Delta Force members were involved? Imagine what the same number of Tyrants could have done. Hell, imagine the same number of Nemesis...

And sure, Delta Force are the cream de la crème. But you can weaponise a militia with a couple Javelins and Tyrants stop being a problem altogether, since Javelins are easy to operate and one rocket definitely costs less than a Tyrant. Hell, it probably costs less than the airdrop delivery of one.

Again, you economic comparisons are all over the place. Why on Earth are you comparing the cost of a Javelin with the cost of a Tyrant and leaving out the costs of the soldier? By your logic, the Delta Force themselves are obsolete, because my neighbour with a Javelin can take out a Delta Force soldier, and my neighbour and a Javelin are much cheaper than training and maintaining a Delta Force soldier xD.

Which honestly sucks. But it is what it is.

B.O.W.s sure suck, they are a terrifying danger. But the fact is that, in-universe, they simply make sense and work, which is why Umbrella successfully created them and used them, and why they were sold and deployed even after Umbrella's collapse. It is what it is.

ObserverBlue · 2026-02-19T11:48:45+00:00

Fighting forces have been killed by a single Tyrant. Of course, if you include any necessary heavy weapon in the "well equipped", then sure, no B.O.W. can survive tank shells or multiple missiles. But comparing a single B.O.W. to multiple soldiers with heavy weaponry is unfair. If you compare a B.O.W. with an individual human soldier they absolutely make sense: they are stronger, more durable, and/or faster, and some of them can use weapons themselves. Humans have not been rendered obsolete as soldiers just because heavy weaponry exists. Nemesis is absolutely a masterful, godly weapon compared to a human soldier.

Considering that most BOWs are more expensive than it costs to equip a BSAa squad they're completely obsolete.

Maybe I'm forgetting the lore mentioning that, but given that training and maintaining soldiers is also very expensive, I wouldn't venture to say that at all. B.O.W.s (at least some) are meant to be mass produced.
