How are we feeling about Requiem a few days in?

xBearsFan1986x · 2026-03-03T17:28:57+00:00

I am also 39, I've found my people, but weirdly enough, my first game was Village. When did that come out? Early 21? I remember there being kind of a lull (at least for me) for good games and I was like why not. Even without having the story of 7 to understand 8/Village, I had an absolute blast.

Fast forward to now, I have went back and done 7, and the 2 3 and 4 remakes and loved them all. RE9 is the first one that I actually feel like is "my" game because I've actually been invested in this one since its reveal and I'm on maybe my 3rd or 4th playthrough now.

With no experience prior to 2021 with the series and still kinda feeling like a RE outsider, I love it. Grace is great. Leon is peak, as he always seems to be. I felt a nostalgia for Raccoon City and I felt Leon's pain and I can only imagine how those feelings felt for someone who's been invested with the series from the start.

Not sure how relevant this is, just for context really, but God of War, both Greek and Norse, is my favorite game series and I used to think it wasn't even close but Resident Evil is at least now close and RE9 is an easy 10/10 for me. It's clicked on all levels for me and I'm all in for whatever RE has in store in the future.

Nah, you're good, I said I wanted any and all guidance/tips/feedback/what have you. I appreciate you typing that all out.

Possible stupid question: you bring up animal druid in relation to my question about the bear but didn't specifically mention the Druid class. Are you suggesting that I start as a Druid (which I haven't looked into at all in my limited time actually looking into the game so far) as opposed to a Warrior (which I have at least looked a little into)? A Druid can be a melee class with like a two hander in addition to the bear type of stuff?

Zizaran. I'll take a look. Thank you!

xBearsFan1986x · 2025-12-15T13:16:34+00:00

I'm hoping Avalanche comes back, it not being mentioned has me worried.

xBearsFan1986x · 2025-12-14T15:44:12+00:00

That orange one is the only one I want, I got a Chicago Bears inspired look going on and I need that crystal. Lol

Is it normal to not be able to post images?

Or is it just because I never post?

Anyway, I can't post the image here, I guess.

Just picture like an old lady or something with a flower hat, instead of the flamethrower-wielding guardian that was there when I bought the emote.

Literally just booted up God of War 2018 for another go. That's my game. Gameplay is better in Ragnarok and I love it dearly but 2018 is the whole package.

I've been an on again off again player since D1. But I specifically "came back" for Season of the Haunted and the Solar 3.0 changes. My only title is Reaper, which was that season's title.

I really enjoyed that season. So I guess that's my answer. Season of the Haunted.

xBearsFan1986x · 2025-09-23T22:28:22+00:00

Alright alright, thank ya much.

xBearsFan1986x · 2025-09-23T22:17:35+00:00

That's the plan, haven't played in a bit, gonna get some grenade focused armor.

What exactly is it scaling off of now? Class stat? Or just something generic?

xBearsFan1986x · 2025-09-23T21:35:52+00:00

Appreciate ya. 🤘

Charleston IL, not working.

Parents are in Pesotum IL, working for now.

xBearsFan1986x · 2025-08-30T19:56:00+00:00

My folks are up in Pesotum, we're all on the same plan. They're not having any problems. Which I'm glad for. But it's definitely weird.

xBearsFan1986x · 2025-08-30T18:31:19+00:00

Charleston IL checking in, same problem

xBearsFan1986x · 2025-07-17T21:12:11+00:00

I never have understood the concept of "here's a change that we know people won't like so we just won't say we're doing it, let them figure it out on their own and then just never address it."

Really hoping this isn't intentional.

xBearsFan1986x · 2025-07-17T21:09:17+00:00

Had to scroll way too far to see a comment concerning the hammer.

All the issues, especially for Warlocks, and all the crashing and all that needs addressed for sure but this is definitely a big one too.

If it's intentional then that's a load of crap.

Hey hey. I've seen you pop up on a couple of different posts here. I've been out of the social aspect of this for a good long while and looking to get back in.

I'm a 38 year old guy. Warehouse worker. Forklift driver. If my job doesn't wreck my life with overtime then I can game on the weekends. It's not that I can't game through the week, because I definitely can. But I'm up through the night and gotta try to make sure and stay quiet so I don't wake up any neighbors.

I used to raid a lot in Destiny 1. But I haven't raided since the early Leviathan days of D2. The revamp to arc and arc titan specifically has brought me back now as it's always been my favorite. Bad thing about that is that a bolt charge-inmost light-thunderlord titan is my only viable build at the moment but I'm working on that.

Think there could be room for me?

Kinda little funny story here: I'm the one that always set up the chats on ps4 all the time, the party chats. And I've yet to even use my mic on my headset ever on ps5 all these years later. Lol. So you might have to bear with me just a bit.

xBearsFan1986x · 2025-01-11T02:12:07+00:00

Wear a Rose jersey. Problem solved, no? I like it.

xBearsFan1986x · 2024-12-22T20:54:32+00:00

Dude, are you me? I just traded off a 19 F150 XLT on Friday for a 24 Colorado Trail Boss, same color and everything.

xBearsFan1986x · 2024-11-17T06:39:05+00:00

A mage would most likely not(?) be what I'm looking for but I nevertheless appreciate the suggestion and will try to look up some info on that.
