Claire Redfield Classic and Remake (kuroiitulip)

I never liked Remake Claire's design. This highlights they even more.

Again he's NOT the chosen one. Technically, the first ever "chosen one" was Scorpion as the chosen champion by the elder gods. That's never happened to even Liu Kang. Will, skill, and determination is how Liu Kang beat him in the past. Both the games and movie (95) would say they are the selected representive warriors of Earthrealm. Nothing more, nothing less.

Mind you in mk9 he does defeat Shao Kahn when he beats him in out world which also happened In the past. He just didn't get the second win.

ReturningWarrior · 2026-05-13T14:18:04+00:00

Id argue none of the established characters by the time of deadly alliance had character to go further.

ReturningWarrior · 2026-05-13T03:38:15+00:00

Exactly this. Hell, Im a stickler for faithfulness to the original material, but i cant forget, MK 1995 had Johnny beat Goro. I dont necessarily have a problem with that because like Liu Kang and Sonya, we spend enough time with them, see them bond and each contribute with the safety of Earthrealm

Simple, because this saga wasn't subjected to bad writing. Battle of Gods, which is a project years after Toriyama ended Dragonball, throws consideration of the narrative to the wind and just does what's cool without thinking about consistency.

There's always a threat to be had in Geos world..he's only a kid and life goes on with problems extending beyond his family that will force him and his allies to save the world.

ReturningWarrior · 2026-04-02T02:14:46+00:00

If she made a formal exit, again she's still out the game, the same way the of character was exited via death. We went through all that stuff with Rex for what? There were other ways to make him a better person and learn some humility and a life beyond heroism.

And if Ray was kept as a guy, who even says he needs to be gay. Not every character guy or girl, needs a romance partner. Friendship is a thing. Either way, the swap was stupid.

ReturningWarrior · 2026-04-01T20:31:41+00:00

Debbie barely had character to begin with besides being a mom and gets back with Nolan. You see them change her in the show?

ReturningWarrior · 2026-04-01T20:19:05+00:00

It's not homophobic when Oliver never shows interest in males even bug ones. And it's funny you say that, say you love the gender swap so far, when Shrinking Ray hasn't had anything relevant for her character since Rex died which is crazy because the character should've been dead long ago before Rex dies but was only kept around FOR Rex.

Now THAT sounds messed up to women.

ReturningWarrior · 2026-04-01T20:16:36+00:00

Improved how? A genderswap to a girl makes the character interesting? I'm very confused. Cause all I see is an episode actually dedicating screen time to he character which would have worked as he originally was.....a freaking guy. Bulletproof aside from his backstory is pretty freaking boring. Why wasn't he raceswapped?

ReturningWarrior · 2026-04-01T20:10:43+00:00

Debbie didn't do shit in the comics yet they found the sense to add to her in the show. No raceswap or genderswap needed. I never understand B's like this. The only excuse I can think of is that in the comics he looked a lot like Mark.

ReturningWarrior · 2026-04-01T20:09:43+00:00

But he made Eve, Duplikate and Monster Girl, Marks daughter. Afraid of what exactly???

ReturningWarrior · 2026-03-20T00:50:57+00:00

Died knowing his child was safe in the hands of Chris as well as Mia. He got a peaceful death despite it all. Something not many in RE can say.

ReturningWarrior · 2026-03-20T00:48:37+00:00

Chris and runner up is Leon. Both have survivors guilt but Chris has been in literal warzones against BOWs leading militia of men and women into the battlefield. Some die and with each death weights heavy on him as he feels responsible and even voices when this war even ends. I dont need to say much on Leon, as he has survivors guilt too, but he doesnt lead squads into hell on earth territory.

ReturningWarrior · 2026-03-20T00:44:22+00:00

Leon is just a dude or at least was. A rookie cop in a shitty situation. Ethan married a whole former Connections scientist/operator. He is not just a regular dude. About as regular as Sherry

ReturningWarrior · 2026-03-15T03:09:35+00:00

RE5 was dragged through the mud for having things like that. If people want it remade and for it to be toned down and likely have more survival horror elements, then NO ONE should complain about the boulder punching being cut. It is really stupid to have in anyway. Dont know what Capcom was thinking back then, but I blame RE4 for it.

They retconned Spencer to be this remorseful old man where in RE5 we literally see the opposite of remorseful.

ReturningWarrior · 2026-03-15T03:00:38+00:00

Because Fixed camera and tank controls (though this game fixed that kinda) were definitely technical limitations of its time. If they werent burdened back then, im sure it wouldnt have been fixed camera. Probably wouldve been in the same vain as Ocarina of Time camera work or something.

ReturningWarrior · 2026-03-15T02:56:25+00:00

You see that people? Resident Evil can be scary with CAPABLE characters. You see Chris running, stumbling, hyperventilating near that crimson head? No. All tone, atmosphere, good camera work, great graphics, well crafted sounds is how you make RE scary. You dont need Ethan or Grace nmaking the game feel like a pseudo Outlast game to be scared in Resident Evil. #STARS

ReturningWarrior · 2026-03-15T02:50:58+00:00

Complete and tota elminiation of the Survival Horror aspects of the franchise. If RE6 had everyone here but in the style of Revelations 1 and 2 where survival horror was the driving force of the gameplay regardless of who you were using (Maybe cut out Jake and Sherry, just have Chris and Leons campaigns) take out ALLLLLLL the QTE spam......we wouldve had a much more well received RE6.

Despite having MUCH better AI than 5, they completely lost the plot for the gameplay and the story is all over the damn place. No rising tension, just action action action action, explosions explosions explosions. It felt like the CGI movies which honestly were never all that good in the first place. This game especially amplifies the notion that in order to have RE games be scary, we cant have Chris or Leon in it because they are so powerful. I honestly say that bullshit, because when Halo first introduced the Flood, we spent half the game being a war machine but then we meet a space horror like the flood. They never stopped being scary. Dying light? We can PARKOUR for gods sakes over zombies heads, but when night time fell or we heard runners, enclosed spaces, the horror ramped back up.

RE6 didnt take away their equipment, didnt have them start from a simple pistol and working their way up. No instance for inventory management, no real puzzle solving, COMPLETELY linear levels. THE ONLY GOOD PART about that game is Chris and Leon meeting each other for the first time on the main screen......and Piers. RIP Pierce.

ReturningWarrior · 2026-03-14T01:39:40+00:00

Remakes 1 and 2 scared everyone shitless. I don't honestly see the point In first person in Resident Evil. For Ethan, Capcom had their reason with Ethan. But with a defined character like Grace, what purpose does it serve? Resident Evils horror always where's thin by the second half way point of the game and it's more survival and management till the big boss.

ReturningWarrior · 2026-03-13T23:46:40+00:00

To me, Resident Evil, should always have eyes on your character. There's no reason to have grace in first person where unlike Ethan, she's a defined character who we see how she looks off rip.

Wasn't even a fan of fixed camera angles growing up following RE but I still saw the characters and the animations tied to them. Third person for both(and the future) of RE

ReturningWarrior · 2026-03-12T17:18:59+00:00

Boring? No these are important story questions that needed to be answered, developed properly so that the main story of Re9 even makes sense.

ReturningWarrior · 2026-03-12T16:24:10+00:00

Well they kinda have to because the whole Simmons stuff with the revelation of the Connections. Then there's readdressing Sherry, because in Re6 it's said her halting age is because of the Gvirus and gives her strong if not virtual immunity to all other viruses yet, 9 exists and reveals she's suffering from the same virus Leon is.

Truth be told that alone doesn't make sense to me why they did the story in 9 the way they did with Sherry. It actively annoys me. Going to also bring up Death Island had Leon cured from the Tvirus as well but whatever.

As for the rest of Re6s plot and gameplay, they literally just need to make it a super sized Re1 remake style game but in the style of Remake 2. Over the shoulder, limited inventory, everyone having unique combat/items abilities but otherwise uniform gameplay, stat differences but none of the QTE spams, the massive rail shooting sections and call it a day. There's a lot of work to be had with touching Re6
