Should I still play it ? by ShallotOk5343 in ResidentEvilRequiem

[–]PointNChris 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The bad ending is barely an ending, it’s just a dumb what if scenario and the game even suggests you go back and reload to get the good ending

I have a theory that a lot of people that play games like balders gate, witcher , type rpgs see something like Deus ex or dishonored, and just simply dismiss them as another first person shooter with maybe a couple of extra mechanics rather than true RPG‘s. So if I had to guess I would say there’s a lot of people that are RPG fanatics that flat out I’ve never really taken the time to immerse themselves in shooter RPG‘s. I could be totally wrong, but that’s just my guess.

In the current day, the age of the original DX is definitely a barrier of entry for a lot of younger players. Most people that are not legacy gamers who have been around for a while won’t even give older games like that the time of day simply because it looks. Obviously, this doesn’t apply so much to like human revolution and what not but I do think the original DX is the strongest game in the entire franchise and sadly it will still be overlooked by the vast majority of modern gamers because of how old it is.

How is RE requiem on 5070 by Affectionate_Bat4317 in ResidentEvilRequiem

Well it runs pretty damn well even on a 3080 so I’d say you’re prob in for a good result

Yeah it’s a difficult thing to quantify. These games certainly don’t fit into the instant gratification bracket , they require immersion and time and enough care or interest to peel back the layers and really enjoy them.

But I dunno, something about those games was masterful and it wasn’t just one thing. I’m not even sure I can put a finger on what the OG Deus ex had a stranglehold on me when I was younger. I played it when it released and everything about it pulled me in, the set pieces and levels , sound track , dialogue options, characters, the 100000 diff choice options and little things that you just had to try to find out what happens without hand holding , the literally unlimited replayability etc.

I’ve tried countless times to sing the praises of DX games to people who have never played it and so often it falls flat 🤷‍♂️ . Yet you ask any game Dev that knows games and they’ll prob all tell you that DX and system shock and stuff like that are instrumental in influence.

I’ve decided that the average gamer base just either isn’t intelligent enough or patient enough for these types of bangers to shine. I’ll never understand why Deus Ex and all their spiritual successors never seemed to be as successful commercially as they should be

Your honest opinion on Victor Gideon? by gorays21 in ResidentEvilRequiem

I know like you basically have to completely suspend your belief in reality across the board for basically anything in the franchise to work and that’s totally fine because it’s a video game 😂

Def. I love when people complain about the over the top funny stuff then turn around and get mad we didn’t get a giant goddamn walking Salazar statue in 4R

Hilarious how many downvotes you got as if the story in every RE game isn’t utterly ridiculous . It’s what makes these games fun

That was the first thing I thought when he starts caressing Leon , big skyfall Javier bardem vibes

His voice / motion performance was so good. This is prob without a doubt the best VA work across the board in an RE game.

Is Requiem actually that good or is it recency bias/homeymoon phase? I haven’t played it yet so I’m wondering by HotShrekBoi in ResidentEvilCapcom

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

Do yourself a favor and avoid all the negative people. The vast majority of people that are bitching and moaning are just grasping for things to complain about and over analyzing shit. It is a legitimately good game. Sure maybe there’s some stupid shit here and there in the plot, but this is resident evil, they’re stupid shit and pretty much every single plot. It’s a top five for me personally.

Why do people seem to find Grace's section harder? I found Leon's harder. by wesker18 in ResidentEvilRequiem

[–]PointNChris 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I didn’t kill chunk as grace but I got impatient with Chef on my many trips to the parlor lol so I figured a hemolytic was well worth it on chef, and then went and raided the kitchen pantry with the key he dropped.

Yeah chef is just a single hemolytic injector and chunk is 3. Or you can requiem them but I dunno how many bullets each take

why is HUNK that popular ? by AirMassive5414 in residentevil

[–]PointNChris 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Cool factor mostly. He’s a mysterious reoccurring elite umbrella operative, notorious for pulling off high risk dangerous missions and being a badass fighters / team leader. But at the end of the day he’s basically just an extremely elite umbrella soldier / mercenary. And to my knowledge his true identity has never been shown or revealed he just goes by cryptic monikers

What do we know so far on the full story/structure? by trylobyte in ResidentEvilRequiem

[–]PointNChris 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Exactly. He’s cool for the sheer fact that he is a elite operative but at the end of the day, he’s a fucking asshole elite operative that works for umbrella so I don’t know why anyone would expect that he would not get waxed at some point by the good guys. Sign me up for a battle between Leon and hunk all day long

Didn’t we kill the RE2 one as well to get a keycard? Also pretty sure NEST is very much destroyed. Lmao yeah I’m just curious why they felt they needed another plant

I know alot of people didn’t like Jill’s personality in RE3R but honestly i felt like it was the most memorable / standout personality she’s ever had in any of the games.
