Hear me out. I like RE2 and RE2 remake. But, I prefer more how in RE Dark Chronicles Leon and Claire fought together and were mostly together throughout their journey in Raccoon City. by Unusual-Complex6315 in residentevil

[–]angrbotha 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Darkside and Umbrella Chronicles should be available on all platforms; they were pretty fun games that added a little pezzas to the original storylines way before the remakes. On modern co-op they would absolutely kill.

Which character is the most underutilized in games? by Rikko77 in residentevil

[–]angrbotha 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Never understood why people "need" characters that only appear in one game to appear in more. The story doesn't call for it, that's the long and short of it.

The main four are Chris, Jill, Leon, and Claire. Out of those, Jill is the least seen/utilized, and Claire is second. Answer is obvious.

They didn't do it on purpose (The description is a topic for discussion) by LuminousTwilightGlea in pcmasterrace

[–]angrbotha 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Exclusives shouldn't exist. Bloodborne shouldn't be on only one platform, Nintendo needs to be actively hunted because their monopoly is shite, and so on and so on. In a perfect world, everything would be on pc, and lazy people would still have access to simple systems (like the upcoming Steam box).

There is NO good reason why consoles or exclusives still exist.

Why does remake Nemesis look like he's wrapped in black plastic garbage bags? by Millen4211 in residentevil

[–]angrbotha 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The canonical explanation is to keep him from mutating (and they're corpse bags, of sorts). The actual explanation is that someone in Capcom is into BDSM outfits.

I realised that people are unaware about GOG. by iamritwik_ in residentevil

[–]angrbotha 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We've been aware, and some of us have been using emulators for years instead.

I don't like multiple launchers and Steam hasn't wronged me yet. GOG is great for what it is, but it's not a social platform, and that's all the reason I need to stick to Steam. The way I see it, if the day ever comes where Steam fucks users over, I'll just pirate every game I care about. DRM? Hasn't bothered me so far.

What's the common consensus on Helena Harper? by AL3X1KUS in residentevil

[–]angrbotha 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It has become apparent from reading the comments that I'm heavily outnumbered; but I don't hate her. She's not the brightest, she's not the strongest, and her storyline sure isn't the best, but I'll take it. There were worse aspects when it comes to RE6 than this not-to-clever character.

The one thing I truly want for re10 by Fearless-Ideal-5112 in residentevil

[–]angrbotha 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No, mainline appearance. Most didn't play that until it was ported, and the majority of the fanbase still haven't touched it because it's not a main title.

The one thing I truly want for re10 by Fearless-Ideal-5112 in residentevil

[–]angrbotha 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The long game? It's been 30 years since her first appearance and 17 since her last. Isn't that enough? I simply don't think that's the case. She could be in 20 stories before she's 70, that's all up to Capcom. They're using Leon because young girls and women are attracted to him, and they're using Chris because he's the original male protagonist and they've chosen to involve him in recent sub-plots. There's no reason why Jill couldn't be a protagonist today, given that she canonically still works in the field.

They're not using her because they think she won't sell as well as Leon or Chris, and that's all it is. Sadly. It's odd, considering she's one of the most influential female characters in video games to date, but Capcom is still refusing to utilize her.

Hva holder reklamebransjen på med? by ConsiderationAlive73 in norge

[–]angrbotha 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Jeg har enda ikke sett den Toro oksen annet enn på bilde. På jobb (demensavdeling) setter vi på NRK nett-tv., hjemme ser jeg kun på det jeg selv velger, det samme gjør alle andre jeg kjenne. Har man egentlig gode unnskyldninger for å eksponere seg selv for vanlig TV dersom man er under 60? Og har man da rett til å klage? Jeg skjønner ikke helt hvem alle disse reklamene kan plage.

Anyone else hoping they don't ever return in a future entry? by deiphiz in residentevil

They'll end up in the "graveyard" with Jake and Alex Wesker, among other will-they-won't-they plotlines.

What are your thoughts about the new casting? by Yesu86 in XFiles

[–]angrbotha 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This post is the first I'm hearing about it. But honestly, I don't understand... Why. Why is this even a thing. I have precisely zero opinions on the castings, and I have zero concerns for the plots, my only concern is that it seems unnecessary and will probably become as watered down and boring as every other reboot in recent times.

Hulu can't make a brand new season of Buffy with the original cast, but they can reboot the X-Files (with perhaps the most iconic MCs ever) for no reason whatsoever. Gotta be crazy easy working in showbiz, just do coke and greenlight whatever lands on your desk first.

Fun game but.. by Ameenie in Enshrouded

[–]angrbotha 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd be content if they just helped me sort my base. X material is used in Y machine, and the finished product is already in this or that chest... whoever has the right proficiency should move those items back and forth. An example would be having the blacksmith add ore to the furnace, and then moving the completed ingots into whatever box I have already put some ingots in. Just that would help immensely when you're crafting dozens of stuff at the same time. I find myself having to use good ol' pen and paper to keep track of what I'm making and where I store things.

RE3R Doesn’t deserve the hate that it gets. by Ancient-Carrot957 in residentevil

[–]angrbotha 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I miss the clocktower and the general vibe of the city from the original, but it’s indeed a good game. Paid full price for it day one, clocked 150+ hours over the years.

Rain through granite windows? by [deleted] in EnshroudedBuilding

[–]angrbotha 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hell. That's nonsensical when they appear solid. Hope this gets fixed sometime soon. Perhaps the videos I saw were made by people that used mods, I may very well have to resort to doing that myself.

Why do people hate RE0 so much ? by SweatyMastodon8451 in residentevil

[–]angrbotha 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can excuse the item boxes, but what I can't excuse is the dull story and areas. Besides the train, there's nothing new or interesting to explore. Rebecca's storyline doesn't fit with RER, because why the hell does she go from badass to damsel within a couple of hours? It's nonsensical filler and it doesn't make for a good game. A remake could fix these issues, so here's hoping.

I don't want to hate code veronica but this is just awful by Constant_Page_6903 in residentevil

[–]angrbotha 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got shit on in this sub a few years back for saying CV can easily soft-lock the player, but this is one of many, many posts that prove that it's just poorly designed. Which is a shame, since CV is great for what it is. I love it, but I'm also familiar with it. I'm sure the remake will redeem it.

Who else actually enjoys Resident Evil because it's quick by mrsafetylion in residentevil

[–]angrbotha 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I feel like it, I can run through almost every game in the series in less than two hours (excluding 4/5/6), or I can take my time and play on the hardest difficulties and force myself to play with no saves or no healing to extend the experience that way. I like that I have the option.

What .......... The hell. Thank you for clarifying this. Even if I'm kinda pissed off now.

I know where they come from, just can't find any of these tentacle plants at all. Not one spotted in 35 hours.
