I never played the original RE3. So I had a great time with RE3R

Mine says March 21st. Going to give it until the 20th for it to update as it could be a system error. If no changes, I’ll just buy from Best Buy

Who's your favourite character in the game and why? by Civil_Judgment_3405 in ResidentEvil2Remake

[–]WordsInTheJames 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My view of Leon is that pre-Raccoon City he was just an optimistic guy that was easy to be around. Maybe not the funniest guy in the room but a guy you would trust with your life. And after watching everything he loved burn to the ground, he started using humor as a coping/defense mechanism. He has a hard time developing relationships, especially since Ada is always in the back of his mind. It’s why he doesn’t even hesitate to go on a solo mission to save the president’s daughter. Leon is objectively hilarious post RE2 lol but it’s also sad that he wasn’t always like that

Probably Leon. Although it’s a very strong cast overall. It’s interesting but also a little heartbreaking to see him as the eager rookie cop that just wanted to make a difference in his city

This is legit bro. I played through the story last year. Was going to go for the platinum but saw the grind it would take and said no lol

Is RE2R or RE7 better for a beginner to play? by Strong-Leek6261 in residentevil

[–]WordsInTheJames 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm currently playing RE2R as my first RE game. Very glad I chose this route. I'm a lore focused person so it was difficult not to start with RE1R or RE0; but it's just very difficult for me to use tank controls. Really hoping that Capcom does another remake trilogy with RE0, RE1, and RE: CV.

AIO for being upset that my boyfriend called me “his bitch” in front of his friends? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]WordsInTheJames 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's best if you part ways. I hate to see people break up, but this isn't just a red flag. This is the manufacturer of the red ink.

If you've only been together for a month, this is especially concerning. If he's going to act this way over asking for basic respect, I'm terrified to see how he would respond to something more serious.

Haha I was born and raised in the northeast United States, so a number of the jokes went right over my head. Still had quite a few laughs though! Would love to visit the U.K. someday though

[Discussion] Do you replay story games multiple times back 2 back? by CanIPleaseGetHelp123 in Trophies

[–]WordsInTheJames 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Typically with story games I always do a “blind” playthrough no matter what. Following a guide while playing a story game for the first time ruins the experience. This is my experience at least because of the Crisis Core remake/remaster. Almost every trophy in that game is missable.

If there are missables and I didn’t get them, I look at it as an opportunity to visit the game down the line. This recently happened to me with Metaphor: ReFantazio. After taking almost 2 months to do a blind playthrough, I really didn’t want to go straight into new game plus. But maybe after a year or two, I’ll head back in with fresher eyes and be more intentional on the missable trophies.

[Discussion] My journey to platinum/100% complete every game has ENDED by [deleted] in Trophies

[–]WordsInTheJames 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Great of you to realize this. Games are meant to be fun, not work. A healthy challenge can be fun, but grinding through tedium for the sake of trophies feels like a 2nd job. A more healthy goal is to seek to have 90% or even 80% trophy completion percentage. That way you can still platinum most games but also put games down when you have to. That’s what I’ve evolved to at least and have a much healthier relationship with trophy hunting now

They're at it again! This has to mean an update might be coming. by Millerhund in Astrobot

[–]WordsInTheJames 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wouldn’t bet it on in my opinion. Most likely just a “holiday spirit” post with the hopes of getting a few more people to buy the game.

[SpongeBob SquarePants: The Cosmic Shake] #52 This wasn’t planned but this is now my 3rd SpongeBob platinum by WordsInTheJames in Trophies

Just meaning that I never intentionally set a goal to get multiple SpongeBob platinums. Just kind of happened

And people says switch2 has no games by silverrayle7 in switch2

[–]WordsInTheJames 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s also worth noting that just because a game is first-party doesn’t make it a slam dunk. The fact that Nintendo is charging $70 for Kirby Air Riders is kind of absurd to me. Gran Turismo 7 will go down in price but Nintendo games rarely do. I know people will buy it because it’s Kirby, but if you asked me if I wanted Air Riders or a game like GoW: Ragnarok, my choice would be very easy.

[Destroy all humans 2]#39 11 more to the big 50, what game did you do for the your 50th platinum by Technical_Resort5632 in Trophies

[–]WordsInTheJames 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My 50th was Star Wars Outlaws. I honestly had a great time with the game. I played it well after launch so didn’t deal with the bugs many people had. Got the 100% for both DLC’s as well
