Re: Resident Evil 5

How are the boss fights? do they have Ultra hard demons? or just ones who are a bunch of push overs?

Re: Resident Evil 5

Boss fights are easy as fuck.

 

[Super Mario]

Re: Resident Evil 5

No challenge as much as De Lago, Verdugo, etc etc ??

Re: Resident Evil 5

They were challenges?

Re: Resident Evil 5

In hard mode for me it was!

You suck sandman.

Re: Resident Evil 5

Oh alright I maybe trigger happy but they were still a bitch to beat on low ammo and knife cutting!

 

[Celes Chere]

Jesus Christ this game was disappointing.

Spoiler

What the fuck did they do to you Jill? She looks like a fucking crackwhore with teeth like she's from ye old engrand. The Nina Williams outfit wasn't cool either.

Spoiler

The blonde hair and blue spacey suit reminded me of Samus Aran.

I was reminded of Nina from Tekken. xD As cool as she is... I didn't like it.

The whole explanation about what Wesker's virus is was unnecessary as well. We already got that in UC and now they retconned the virus again. Not to mention the whole Wesker-children bullshit. DO NOT WANT.

Cutscenes were awesome though.
Wesker VS Dante rtf nao pl0x.

Spoiler

Wesker Vs Dante would be interesting! Considering they're both effing immortal, and will NOT die. Hell, even after Wesker was shot in the face with a couple of missiles, I was still expecting to hear "Chriiiiisss!!" as the credits rolled. Wesker was too over-the-top, I really hated that. I actually miss the mindless zombies, and asshole Wesker that ditched you and made you fight Alexia all by yourself. I liked seeing Wesker and Birkin plot behind your back, and make evil jives, hehehe.

Well, I suppose Wesker was still a dick in RE5, but he was Matrixy and not fun. There were no major twists in RE5, so my hopes got kinda shot down. Jill isn't even dead, or mutated at LEAST. :/ When the rumors said "OMG U HAVE TO FIGHT JILL" I was hoping to see some creepy monster like what Steve Burnside turned into. Or Birkin. Or Alexia. etc.

<-Sorry I ranted.

 

[Tetsujin]

Spoiler

Hell no, Jill as a monster would have been god fucking awful. I'm glad her powers aren't permanent. Alice-Jill or Monster-Jill are a big fucking no-no. Jill is like THE face of RE for me. If she dies, so does the game for me.

 

[Max Payne]

Spoiler

Someone better fix her new look or I'm going to cut someone.

 

[Makoeyes987]

What the fuck? I'm totally with Tetsujin.

Spoiler

If they'd have done that to Jill, I'd have jumped ship. Seriously. Jill really is one of the most iconic heroes of Resident Evil and one of the most badass video game heroines out there. It'd be extremely lame for her to get a death like that. I think they did her well in this game, appearance aside. I'm not digging that blonde hair either. But I just chalk that up to Wesker's bad taste

But yeah, killing Jill off would be so lame and shit. So I think this is one of the things RE5 did right.

The revelation of Wesker's origin was...rather bizarre. That's the one plot revelation I could do without but whatever. It's not like it really changes much about him anyways. Just something I didn't really like.

 

[Celes Chere]

Spoiler

Oh, wow, really you guys? xD I love Jill to pieces and everything, but I felt like RE5 got everyone worked up for nothing. Jill was perfectly fine, Wesker dies, happy ending. Something tragic would have been grand, imo. At least it had the trademark explosion at the end.

Plus, Chris on steroids. Hawt as he was, wtf, that was so ridiculous. He's popping out of his clothing here. :'D

Game was fun, just expecting more plot-wise I guess.

 

[Max Payne]

Spoiler

the worst part of the whole wesker bullshit is they had already explained his powers. We didn't need any other fucking explanation. I didn't like his shitty stupid plan that seemed out of character for him either. He got turned into your generic mustache twirling faggot.

About the Jill bit, we knew that shit was a fucking smokescreen from the start. Her very presence in this game is a fucking waste. She shows up for 15 fucking minutes then disappears till the end. She got turned into your generic damsel in distress and it pissed me off.

I still don't get the whining about Chris' size. FFS he's a military man who fights fucking monsters. And good god please stop with the generic roids comments. That's all you ever hear about someone with any muscle mass in a video game now. He's not even that fucking big ffs. How about someone whine about how fucking "fabulous" they made Leon in 4. He's like a goddamn underwear model now.

 

[Celes Chere]

Spoiler

Totally agree! It was lame that Jill sat out during the end, and let Chris and Sheva handle things, saying that they were the only hope for survival. :/ I didn't like Sheva much, it would've been nice to have Jill back with her partner like it should be. Give Sheva the boot. Though, I suppose after having that device ripped off of her chest among other things, she might need a little rest.

And I guess Sheva wasn't all that bad... but a pretty boring character if you ask me.

 

[Max Payne]

Sheva is ok. But she's clearly only been tacked onto the game to help alleviate all of the racism concerns.

Her overall presence is the game is unnecessary, and just sorta odd. Why introduce a new character at the end of the Umbrella confrontation? Why not just use someone who has a huge stake in the battle?

 

[Makoeyes987]

Chris's size makes perfect sense to me too.

Spoiler

And with the sheer amount of people who usually die in Resident Evil, I kinda like it that the main important characters don't get just offed in games that aren't even featuring them, kthnx. It's enough she does have such a backseat role in this, as Dacon said. It'd be extremely shitty for her to die like that. Especially considering she took down one of the strongest BOW's ever made.

Meh, Wesker's plan doesn't seem out of character to me. It's his whole origin that just seemed rather tacked on. But really, who cares? He's badass either way. And really, we never did get much of an explanation for his files save for Birkin giving him a super special virus. And considering he's even stronger NOW than ever...him using this new virus and shit makes sense.

 

[Celes Chere]

I really wanted Claire to be in there at some point. V.V After finally seeing Degeneration, that cleared up why she wasn't I suppose.

Stupid racism concerns. D< People who made a fuss over that were just being retarded.

Especially considering she took down one of the strongest BOW's ever made.

That's true. I still wanted drama. *hides*

 

[A]

I've been meaning to play the Resident Evil games for a while... but I have yet to get any. <_<;

 

[Makoeyes987]

I think Sheeva was cool, and honestly a good idea. Resident Evil needs new characters. It can't keep recycling the same main characters. I mean, going back to them is good but part of the fun of Resident Evil IS including new heroes and perspectives for each of the respective stories.

And Sheeva is a really well designed character. As is Excella... I love RE's character designs and artwork to be honest. RE5 really looks good.

 

[Max Payne]

Yeah, a good idea for ANOTHER game. Not the final in the Umbrella series.

She's just tacked on man. She shouldn't be there instead of all of the other characters that could have been, Jill, Barry, Claire, Leon, Billy, Rebecca. You know, people with actual history with Umbrella, not some tacked on backstory that's almost an after thought, people who we've grown attached to through our journeys in these games and their battles with Umbrella.

And it's fucking SHEVA motherfucker. SHEVA. How the hell is Execella well designed? She's a generic huge boobed scantily clad woman with little to know personality that's too popular in video games. Seriously, she just looks like a whore and there's nothing special about that.

Spoiler

Wesker not once gave the impression that he a god complex and wanted to ruin the world in some batshit plan almost bound to end in failure with everyone alive dead. It's stupid, and waste of a great opportunity for something more interesting than a generic evil scheme to create a new world in a villain's image.

Wesker's power was explained away by the virus he took before the Tyrant killed him, that was enough. The rest of the shit was stupid, and people obviously care past a shallow reason like "he's a badass hurr"

 

[Celes Chere]

Just wondering, do any of you know why Ada wasn't there? I haven't really read through any of the files or anything, so I'm wondering where the hell she is. Do any files mention her, besides in the history?

 

[Max Payne]

Ada isn't fucking mentioned at all. Sherry, or Steve's body either.

Nor do they explain how Wesker got ahold of Las Plagas, when Ada gave him the fake sample. At least I have yet to come across how in all of the files I've read.

 

[Celes Chere]

Wow, that sucks. I thought Ada would be mentioned somewhere- she's kind of a big deal. xD

Everyone thought it was Sherry that was going to be in RE5... or at least that was the popular idea. I was really upset that there was no mention at all (except in the history of RE files). And poor Steve wasn't even mentioned in RE's history.

Really, in RECV Wesker said he was TAKING Steve's body. So what the hell did he do with it?! Second thought- don't answer that.
