That was awesome :) Me and my friend enjoyed Resi 6 but... just not for being Resi. It was an action game. Full stop. It was stupid, over-the-top, bulls*** to put it bluntly. APPARENTLY Capcom said they felt guilty about what they'd done to RE as a series and said they want to take it back to its original roots, but we're yet to see that aren't we? (That was announced after the release of Resi 6.) Btw, Leggeh, I-NFECTED has been Greenlit on STEAM if I remember correctly :) So not all is lost if Capcom doesn't get back on track. P.S. - F*** EVERYONE who said the melee was useless in previous RE's and that the movement needed to be less "tank-like"
TheOnly1Zalo No worries, the newer RE titles may suck, but now that I've had my say on them, I'll be going back to making videos about the ones we love! I left out an intro song because I didn't want the credits to get too long (like last time, yeesh).
When you finished RE 2 and 3: Thank goodness, we survived the Raccoon City incident! I'm glad that's over. When you finish RE 6: PLEASE TAKE ME BACK TO RACCOON CITY!
I know this video is like 5-6 years old, but this is exactly how I felt after bother the Metal Gear Solid franchise and Gears of War franchise was ruined.
Actually, in my opinion RE6 is pretty great. I like it how they make the story to meet up all the old characters. It just like a reunion lol. It really surprise me they've added Sherry Birkins back. And yeah, I kind of hate it too when they added some random new characters. Maybe the next series we will have a good stories and reunite back all Resident Evil's characters? Or more making a new Resident Evil remake? Once again, this is just my opinion~
Leggy, there are no words to describe the perfection of that last scene with the RE 3 ending parody, it was excellent! Btw, props to you for the Nightwish part =) Keep up the good work
capcom just needs to rerelease re0-3 again with updated graphics in some sort of resident evil classic pack or something just update the graphics and keep the old gameplay, maybe put in a few new things to scare us like how awesome lost in nightmares was but with fixed camera angles
REMake was amazing; Probably one of the best RE games to date. If they could legitimately pull that off again with RE2 and RE3 it'd be amazing. But by this point, I'm worried they'd fuck it all up somehow.
I share these feelings for the franchise I truly miss the good ol survival horror days! sadly those days may never return now. putting all my mainstream survival horror hope in the evil within right now
RE4: Succeeded in changing Resident Evil while still being scary. RE5: Killed the franchise. RE6: Buried the Franchise. And you wanna know the sad part? RE: Revelations is a prime example of implementing Survival-Horror into this new gameplay style.
Seeing your videos in my subscription feed brings back so many awesome memories! Still excited to see your new videos! Anyways, not only does this video sum up my similar emotions towards Resident Evil, but it also works with Silent Hill.
Yee yo cool! Sadly Silent Hill is long gone from its glory days too, though I do think in terms of story and characters, they're FAR better off than Resident Evil has been lately.
***** That is true, Silent Hill has gone downhill but they introduced new characters in nearly every sequel so they weren't able to be altered. Resident Evil has characters who often reappear and Capcom wound up bastardizing them. Rest in peace to classic survival horror games.
I actually liked RE 6, haha! I can understand everyone's reasoning why they didn't like it, but I personally loved it. Out of the newest model games, I'd place 4 in first place, and then 6, and then 5. But yeah, obviously nothing beats the early series (though 4 is extremely close).
agreed... if the other half of 6 would have focused of those fucking grotesque abominable monsters and horror it would not be so unbalanced feeling unfinished giving no characters real moments or scenes of horror and i miss good ol re gore and original monster scares and brutal teammate deaths that you hope and pray for to make it out alive at least chris's campaign treid to capture that but it was for only half of a mission and was to short... i fucking love sherry but hate jake (he tries to hard mostly to replace wesker but mercenaries are not good people or have good senses of humor or sense of moral or giving half a shit about others lives like this poser douche bag does... sherry deservers more, a real fucking man)
It's been seven years since I have last watched your Resident Evil Numa video, and all I can say is thank you for the great memories. Even now I smile whenever I remember watching that video as a ten year old kid. Seriously though thanks.
Oh man! I used to watch your videos such a long time ago, (And they were the reason why I decided to practice drawing!) I come back here out of curiosity and you're still making these RE animations. Fucking awesome. It's so cool seeing your artstyle improve over time. Those 7 years went by fast, huh.
Well I really like RE6. The graphics are not the best and the gameplay is maybe stupid but I think Capcom made a good job with the story and the characters. Okay, Carla was stupid but Leons part was great, the interaction with all the characters was great and they gave us so many old characters and many references to the old games. And IMO Jake and Helena are great new characters and I hope we will see them again. RE is maybe not so scary anymore but well...I care more for other things.
6Kubik I personally mostly care about story as well, and I still think RE6 seriously dropped the ball on that. For me, the best part was Sherry returning, though even that could have been done a lot - a LOT better. It just feels like an empty shell of its former glory in all aspects, for me at least.
I literally think the exact opposite. The graphics are pretty and the game mechanics are fun (though too action oriented) I think the story in every way is utter garbage and does nothing to bring the story forward. However I do think Jake has potential... But bringing Sherry back wasn't that great.. They couldn't even find a different voice actress......(I'm going off on a tangent now)
Moot Well thank you, it's understandable though. Not trying to patronize the Let's Play community but it's so much easier to record yourself playing hours of game footage, and people like constant uploads. Since animating usually takes months just to finish a single one, it makes sense that not as many people stick around.
***** I know, but still... >.< Just need more people to share your videos so you can get more subs. No need in having constant uploads, which can get pretty annoying IMO. I like a steady flow of quality goodness in my feed over a flood of Let's Play any day ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) Either way, I really like your designs. They have so much life and you've come a long way! I remember when you first uploaded RE Numa and my friends and I were all laughing. So much improvement! Your improvements kind of make me wonder what you could do with another "RE Numa ReRemake" if/whenever you run out of song ideas. It seems like everyone has forgotten about that song and it's one of those that could make a huge RE-entry... Omg lol. xD Just tossing an idea around~
Moot Yeah I agree there, it's actually a bit overwhelming when someone uploads something every single day. I don't always have the time to watch so much stuff coming out constantly. But other than being happy to know that people like my work, I don't really get much else out of having subscribers and views. Besides donations and Patreon, my channel isn't monetized or anything so having a big subscriber or view count doesn't do much else outside of popularity. But I guess that's not a bad little bonus to have!Thanks so much! I'm glad you like the new art and animation style, and I'd love to try my hand at a Numa "REMaster" someday. With all the other videos I have in mind, I might keep it on the back burner for a 10 year anniversary remake instead.
***** Hahaha You're awesome! I'm definitely looking forward to it, I know how much work goes into animating so no rush on your work or anything. Just keep doing what you're doing... You got me wondering what could possibly happen in Claire's next minisode lol.
You can get the trailer music and sheet music via the composer’s Bandcamp: It’s called ‘Sweet Melancholia’ by composer Stephen Kilpatrick. He’s on twitter as Soundfackery, and his RUclips is Stephen Kilpatrick (with the highest subscriber list). Original pianist Lauryna Sableviciute.
We all hope, but Capcom doesn't seem to want to ever deliver. At this point they'd prolly screw it up somehow anyway. There's a group of indie developers however, who are working on an RE2 REmake. It looks nice in terms of grpahics and whatnot, but unfortunately it's focusing on the over-used-enough-already-god-fucking-dammit over the shoulder style of gameplay.
***** thanks leg! you really brightened up my day eveon more! also resident evil 4 got an hd why not just rerealease the series in hd? also remove that frekin survival horror camera
***** i went to check it out when i read your comment on an re2 remake and it seems that the over the shoulder camera will be optional but i am not sure since i just heard of this but if u want to check it out heres the link: www.kdramastars.com/articles/14950/20140129/resident-evil-2-remake-reborn-hd.htm
okay for me this franchise stops at RE5 and the only reason for that is cause u get to play as jill, i mean the dlc lost in nightmares 100 times better then the actual game.
Man its great to see how you've improved, i remember watching your videos back in 7th grade 6 years ago. i think imma go back and watch the all again :D
I just finished Resident Evil 6 today. Great timing, Leggy, and fantastic work. Love that you're making a comeback. Me and the rest of your die hard fans will continue to support you. Thank you.
You have an awesome channel, and your art have evolved nicely, but this make you sound like a bitter nostalgic fangirl, now before anyone point out, nobody cares for my opinion, and I am a bad person for likening RE6
Thanks very much! I guess it's understandable if this seems to come off as "bitter nostalgic fangirl" but it's merely my own opinion as well. I could easily retort that anyone who enjoys the newer games are easily pleased casuals with low standards... But what will we really accomplish with petty name-calling and labels?
Fair enough, but then again this is just my opinion, about this particular video and the feeling it have, I've played most RE new and old, I just so happen to prefer the newer ones, well....5....lets not talk about 5, I think saying RE 6 is a mediocre game, "Because is not scary." is easily one of the weakest arguments, because RE was never really scary, and as of 2 where there was enough ammo to be comfortable for the whole game, people can't really say the action overlap was not expected, besides 6 story is pretty neat once you get the hang of it. But oh well, anyway congratulations on your channel again. Honestly your Ada Wong video is one of the funniest things I've ever seem, hehe so you don't think I am hating on you or your channel or anything, being the Devil's Advocate is pretty annoying at times.
Ramus N. Well I don't think I've ever personally said that RE6 is mediocre only because it's "not scary" (scariness is subjective anyway). I think RE6 is mediocre in the way that it plays like a watered down version or a generic action shooter. Though honestly, I think it's even worse than mediocre due to the unstable camera, messy controls and confusing inventory system. Not to mention the games plot feels extremely convoluted and all over the place, especially when there are other characters and plots that need closure from past games. But again, that's just my own opinion on it; I have my specific reasons and it's not only because I prefer the older games. I understand, and appreciate it! I sometimes play Devil's Advocate too when it comes to RE4.
***** Hehe, I must be sounding aggressive, oh well, I am sorry for that. Camera wise is more sensible yes, but I don't think is unstable, it is easy so look your surrounding with it, I never got the "Messy controllers argument." for me it feels normal, nothing extremely good, but far from bad. Well I've told you my opinion on the plot, eh? Ada deliver some powerful phrases during her part, and Chris have one of the most original endings in the series. Hmm, if you have the time I would love to hear, your feeling towards the old games and why.
Ramus N. It's fine, I just wanted to make it clear why I feel the way I do in the off-chance that false assumptions start to spread around. I've played similar style games such as MGS4 and Dead Space but those right-stick cameras felt and moved decently. For whatever reason, RE6's just feels like a loose cannon in comparison. For general controls, I can't say I'm a fan of new-style games in general. I feel like they try to include way too many controls and features, with almost random button placement. Like what was wrong with just having X be the use/shoot button? But yeah that's just personal preference in any case. The reasons for why I like the older games goes on and on so this might get a bit long. Having camera angles gives so much atmosphere, almost as if you're playing a movie. And while I may be in the minority, I feel the best controls for camera-angle games are tank. With all that I find it extremely immersive, not to mention having no HUD during gameplay aside from seeing your character's physical state. Compare that with the new games that have so many displays, flashing bells & whistles and it just makes it feel like any old generic shooting game. The maps were expansive even when only dealing with one area, like a mansion or police station. You could explore everything eventually, giving you the drive to solve the next puzzle so you could venture on. Again, compare that with RE6... Sure, that game technically took you all over the world, but it certainly didn't feel like it. Every area felt like a cramped little hallway with nothing but a straightforward path, requiring zero brainpower or feelings of accomplishment afterwards. And on that note, the puzzles in the originals were fun, challenging and actually had repercussions for some if you failed them. The new games simply do not have puzzles; None that require more than a few seconds of thinking anyway. Item management was limited but orderly. Part of the challenge was deciding what weapon to bring, extra ammo or healing. And those items were limited. You'd wonder if it'll be enough to keep you alive through the next area, or if you should hold onto key items needed to progress. Nowadays ammo and health practically rains from the sky, limited inventory doesn't even matter since you find so much of it. Not to mention RE6's inventory layout was absolutely atrocious anyway. Also, limiting saves and making you do it manually added to the tension and challenge. Autosaves dispose of all that. For now I'll wrap it up with the plot. The originals were simple but each had a drive behind them to keep going, keep furthering the plot to some underlying conclusions. The original uncovered the Umbrella conspiracy. The sequel brought us newcomers with relation to the characters from the first; We get the subplot of Claire trying to find her brother. Continuing off of that, we follow Jill's similar quest in locating Chris and the rest of the team so that they can stop Umbrella together. We get partial closure with Claire finding Chris in Code Veronica... Slowly but surely each game has a similar theme of the STARS and other outside help coming together for a final confrontation of exposing Umbrella and then... RE4 shit all over that. And now we're here. I hope that explains a few things!
Capcom know what the fans want yet they continue to spew this garbage, I want to see what a board meeting is like when they discuss Resident Evil. "Soooo should we go back to survival horror like the good old glory days?....Naaahhhh, just stick more action in there and I'm sure they will love it" I'm glad Capcom are going out of business, the crimes they've commited against gaming is unforgiveable. (Sorry for the rant, I'm very passionate about Resident Evil) Can you tell? :p
I'm not sure of Capcom's condition in the market rn, so I can't say much, but while they're losing old fans, they're gaining many new ones that only care about action.
UrdnotWrex88 you're talking about a company that totally dumped a very loved fan aided project (legends 3) think they've just about given up at this point. They know what the fans want, they just don't want to deliver
I really don't understand it either. If someone wants to play Call of Duty, then they're gonna play Call of Duty. Capcom doesn't stand a chance against them, they need to stick with what they're good at; Or should I say, used to be good at.
As an owner of a RE OC that is Wesker's daughter. I believe Jake is totally uncalled for. My OC's mother never said anything to Wesker either... Oh gosh when I saw RE6 I felt they had seen my OC's old ugly Bio. Some things need to stay in the fanfics and never be canon. (Still love my OC though.)
Blablabla..After RE: CV, RE is total crap. Blablabla, the fans feel betrayed. Blablabla, Capcom hates us all. God, I really like your videos Leggy, but sometimes I just find my self hating your way of thinking. I've been a huge fan of the RE saga since it's first chapter, but I like the new ones as well. First of, I never understood why RE5 was disliked so much by the old fanbase when RE4 (that I really think is the worst one of the series) was thought to be good. RE5 had one of the best story in the series, and the characters where actually better characterized then they ever were. Sure, it's easy to stop at Chris new bodybuilder look, but all of the plot involving his rivalty with Wesker, his old partnership with Jill and his fight to B.O.W.s was pretty damn good material. Besides, the game was actually fun! It still has one of the nicest CO-OP mode. Sure they could've done better with some of the mechanics but the gameplay was fine and SURELY it didn't suck. As for RE6, I didn't like it much myself, but even there there was good material: Chris campaing was emotional, filled with action and good scenes. Leon's was bad, I'll give you that, and Jake's creation could've been avoided altogether, but his partnership with Sherry was well built. RE6 problem was really the gameplay and many of the story elements (Simmons, Carla, the Family, Neo Umbrella and so on). So yeah, I can understand why you dislike RE6 since I dislike it myself, but saying that it's total crap is totally esagerated. Btw, how can you say Capcom isn't making any good RE anymore? In my eyes the only flop was really RE6 (and RE4 was pretty bad), but do we wanna talk about Revelations? Everyone seems to agree that it's the best RE around since Code Veronica. Capcom has his ups and downs but is still a good company. You're acting like the new DmC's haters. I liked the last one, not as much as the first four i admit, but it was a good action game. So yeah, sorry for the outburst, but I really think you should be less biased (if that's the word, sorry I'm Italian).
Well with the RE5 thing, let me tell you that you're preaching to the choir. I also think it's really stupid that RE5 gets hate from RE4 fans since they basically play the same. If anything, RE5 improved upon some of the stiff awkwardness RE4 had. So in case you were thinking so, I'm not one of those hypocritical fans; I hate RE4 and RE5 just about equally. I'll agree that RE5 more or less handled its returning characters better, save for maybe Wesker who went all "cliche comic book villain" as the game itself states. I can't completely agree the story was all that good, but it least it (seemed to) finish the story arch for Jill and Chris. That is, until they decided to keep milking the franchise with RE6. Maybe my opinion is exaggerated. But you know what, I've been a loyal fan and customer of this series for a long time so I don't feel I'm completely in the wrong for my opinions on where the series has gone. Outside of RUclips I've said my piece on Revelations; Too keep it short it was not a horrible game. But it certainly wasn't an amazing game either. People are building it up far more than it deserves, simply because it's the "least shitty" RE game in the past 14 years. Capcom actually has more downs lately... They're going to be sold off through stock/shares because they are in some deep financial shit. Mainly because of all their recent mistakes. So, I'm actually not biased, that's just a straight up fact; Google it, or even search on RUclips and you'll find some videos talking about it.
***** Any toughts on Claire returning as a MC in Revelations 2? They're also going to introduce "Moira Burton", daughter of Barry. Strange choice considering that Claire never actually met Barry. Anyway, things like these are the proof that the new direction seems to care enough for a solid storyline and the feedback of the fans. Also the fact that they didn't jump straight to RE7 and start developing a sequel to a well received spin off, could also mean that this could be a new fine start for the franchise. Revelations was well received by both the old fanbase and the new one, if they continue down on that road RE has a bright future up ahead. Better than the "reboot alternative" anyway, don't you agree?
Re6 es un juego para inutiles porque no tenes que pensar en ningun momento es puro tiroteos, asta quitaron el mapa,aruinaron a los protagonistas y el argumenton
I came here looking for that Alfred video to show my little sister, and I find a new video! Woop :P. I was looking forward to your LeggaMJmon videogame series taking off but only saw a few videos released. Anyway, I'm glad you're back! You will always be a legend.
Ohh yeah, we still have some footage that needs to be edited for the L4D2 stuff but we're both just really busy lately and editing isn't always as simple as it seems! Hopefully at some point we can just make some time for it though.
Chris went from steroids freak to Alcoholic which I teased my friends about. " Come on guys! Who decided to let Chris drive? Now you'll never catch Ada Wong since he probably had a few before the mission started."
Thank you for the nice comments! Zombie cameos are given to those who participate with my Patreon, since it's always been such a heavily requested aspect.
Glad to see I am not the only one who still loves my classic resident evil collection. P.s. I love the fact shawdowleggy got over her fear of criticism over her voice! Your fans love you, and your voice is amazing! Hope to see move videos!
Thanks, I appreciate it! Back in the day, I was mostly worrying over a couple of crazed internet stalkers and didn't wanna do anything too "revealing" if that makes any damn sense.
***** That makes perfect sense and anyways I think it's cooler that that you don't show a picture of your true face and have your own animated character instead since I never like finding out the voice actors behind characters I like. Sometimes the voice actors aren't what you expect (not that I am saying you wouldn't be cool) I just prefer my heroes to wear masks and cool customs if that makes any sense.
Shadowleggy, I can understand. It's Noble but with fandom that just tends to happen. Take for example someone who posts on all your videos and under every comment you reply to. -_- ... Anyways, I don't agree that it's bad to see for example a voice actors face, considering I love seeing how they react to what they say, (But that is mostly only for tv cartoons, anime, etc.) I am not saying be like egoraptor who shows his face, since everyone is different. But yeah I don't think I would want people harassing me over things I love doing. It's good for lone wolfing, but never be shy about who you are. Your worth is what you make it, and screw those who annoy you. Eitherway, I talk to much. Keep up the fantastic work. Btw, Hunk and Claire are my favorite characters, with Rebecca 3rd... Glad they weren't completely destroyed by capcom.......yet.
Holy shit and potatoes! This one looks really really good! Wow! Aside from the content and subject matter being RE6, this little short is breathtakingly HD AS FUCK! So eloquent. I remember dat redub. It's beautiful... "Turned into crap." XD Really though lady, this looks really pro. You should be very proud of how much your animation has grown, and will continue to grow (apparently!) Just when I think you can't get much better, you do. With each video and drawing you just get better! ;) that is not easy to do, but you do it every time lately! I know RE6 is not exactly easy to bear when you make a video from personal experience, but YOU DID IT FOR THE YOLO SWAG! I know I and probably the rest of your fans thank you for this video :) Even an RE6 fanboy can't possibly shit on a video that looks and sounds this good. I like how there's so much going on, and Nightwish FTW! P.s. I guess you did make an RE6 video now! Hell may have froze over :P
+FabbyTheTeddy Thank you so much! I'm happy to hear you like my new art as well; The years certainly flew. And good luck with your own art and improvements!
Now now,I suppose Capcom may still redeem themselves with Resident Evils 7-14...And I typed all of that with a straight face...I mean,C`mon Evil Within!
The Legendary shadow leggy has returned after a well deserved break of only.... 4 months, but they felt like the previous 2 breaks of two years. ALL HAIL THE GODESS OF RESIDENT EVIL
I am three years late, but I can't stop watching your videos (old or new, they're all awesome). In the beginning, when you wrecked almost all the characters- but not Sherry? Is it because you like her or 'cause of something else? I mean, I do love her, whether it's RE2, Chronicles or RE6. The question has been remaining in my head for some time.. But anyway, I love your animations and your unique style. I can see that you put a lot of work into your videos, which definetly pays off. Please keep making these Musicals. And thank you for your time.
Thank you! Basically, I thought Sherry was an alright character, but at the same time wasted potential. She wasn't annoying like Jake, but the whole "hurr durr werks fer da government" plot is so tired and stupid at this point. Plus, some of the fan-service they forced her into was kinda disturbing.
I'm glad you answered. I also think they could've made her into something more interesting, actually I was even surprised that she had those healing powers that connect to RE2. It was a nice little thing in the game, but there should have been more of that (Not just Jake questioning it and her surviving literally everything)..
This just reminds me I still need to go through Ada's side of the game. I unlocked it, played it some and went "Eh... I'll do this later." And later hasn't come yet. The video made me laugh, even if it's a condensed version of why you didn't like 6.
Alright, chaps, the Apocalypse castes it's dark cloak upon our figures! Bard the doors and windows. Load your desired weapons or arm yourself with stock melee weapons, anything to which can destroy the undead and prepare for almost certain doom. **Loads rifle** For now the might beast of Armageddon rears it's ugly head...Resident Evil 6.
I was hoping for a RE6 video from you and now there is! Thank you for it! I couldn't agree more with you. When I was playing RE6, it constantly made me feel like "Oh please, just let it end, I can't take this anymore, let it eeeeeeeeeend!!"
You're back, yay! Glad to see you up and running again. It's been a while. I thoroughly agree too. Leon turned into a Ken doll while Chris became... A walking slab of beef sweating growth hormones.
Thanks very much, happy to be back! Yeah... sad times. As much as I've carried on in the past about vanished characters (Barry, Rebecca, Claire, etc.) maybe they're the ones who are better off?
I know, Leggy... you've made your point clear on both RE 5 and 6... it's just not the same as the games we grew up on (I'm looking at you, Code Veronica and 2). So yeah, CAPCOM did jump on the same bandwagon as CoD in terms of turning one of their most successful genres into run-of-the-mill shooters - zombie style. IMHO, Resident Evil should've never outgrown its original genre, which is survival horror. I mean, when i was just a kid and playing RE 2, i had nightmares about that game... freaking nightmares and now i look back nostalgically at those happier times when i actually had fun by being too scared to continue the game. This video is an actual representation of how i feel about RE now, and still it's pretty funny. Good work! :D
Resident Evil really is going through an insane identity crisis now. I mean I don't mind some things changing with the games; RE1 through Code veronica all had different elements that made them unique from each other and certainly weren't getting boring; At least in my opinion. If anything, there were so many more possibilities for that genre and style but they just decided to call it quits. A subtle moment in RE6 really spoke to me in how much has changed. As you said, the original games were terrifying; I'd find myself taking baby steps around corners, scared shitless of what may come. RE6, Leon's campaign FORCES you to walk in the beginning as if to say "Better not run! We swear the game is waaay too scary and atmospheric to run yet!" Like mother fucker are you kidding me? This ain't shit!
Amazing ending, it moved me you know? I recently bought REMake and Zero and couldn't help but whine... Graphically speaking rem and 0 are so detailed and beautiful. Sometimes I'm surprised to see sloppy or half-ass textures on 6. It's like they put all the efforts on Leon's and Helena's Hair, and they were bored to finish everything else. Leggy you are not the only die hard fan...When I bought Rem I marathoned it with a friend on wii without memory (no saves!) on normal, first playthrough, and finished it in 6 and so hours. Just beers, the night, and Rem. Good old times -Magic.
hi leggy. i hope you dont mind that i bother you so often because i have questions about how to translate the dialogs the correct way. but i love your work, and i want to help make your videos accessable to alot more fans in germany :) i have questions to "no hope left": when jake says: "complete, global, saturation", what exactly does the "saturation" stands for? (i think he means, that nobody has to suffer because of starvation anymore, which would explain why jake is holding an apple) i also cant understand what the guy after jake says. and last but not least: i would like to know what you mean when you say the line: "so thats how its gonna be, huh?" i mean, i basicaly understand what you mean, but its so difficult to put it in german words. i would really appreciate it if you could help me with these problems ;). best regards from germany.
I really liked Resident Evil 6, personally. That said, my first Resident Evil was RE 4, so I can understand if Resident Evil fans, Leggy included, wouldn't enjoy the new installments as they are. I used to watch your videos in Year 7, Leggy! I can't believe you're still animating! So many memories are coming back to me tonight...
DrRichardzz Yeah, I mean I don't mind *some* changes in a game as time goes on, but Resident Evil has been buttfucked into oblivion so far. I hope they can get their heads on straight soon. And yo thanks for watching my stuff for so long!
Helena: "I'll tell you everything once we get to the cathedral" "I'll explain everything later" "I'll tell you everything once we get my sister out of here" ........ lol is all I can say, Helena is a piece of work xD
So is Leggy going to beat the crap out of Claire, Moira , Barry and Natalia soon? I can Imagine curse words coming out of Moira's mouth while she is beaten or Are we going to see them in future musicals? Either way I am excited.
syoma fukasaku I haven't played it yet, so I'm not sure. At most, newer games like the original Revelations may not have been total shit like RE6... But more like a "meh" where I don't even care enough to mention them. Not much lovable charm to go off of.
The strange diseased giraffe logo of RE6... little did we know it was a hint of what was to come... ungainly, hideous and needing to be put out of its misery. Great vidd Az-U
Personally I couldn't even beat re6 before giving it a permanent retirement in my collection of games, havent touched it since a week after launch and I don't plan on it. The thing about re4 and re5 they had solid gameplay machanics re6 felt like your character was on roller skates and the ammo finding was outrageous you would be stuck fighting 2 bullets at a time because you're constantly picking up and running out of ammo so then you're stuck beating th3 shit out of 800 people being knocked to the floor every 4 seconds just to get up and whacked upside the head with a toaster or some shit (not to mention the constant pill poping...) but on I real note I remember watching this channel in gradeschool and im graduating highschool this year pretty crazy!
Oh I know dat rollerskate feel. Call me crazy but I really just prefer tank controls, even when the games went to over the shoulder mode. Just feels more solid and in control. Though with ammo, I actually had too much most of the time... Maybe because melee made the game too damn easy or it was just the way I played, I don't even know. And yo welcome back to my channel even!
I don't wanna dumb by considering I know nothing of jake muller (or whatever his last name is) can I get a explanation with the part were he has the apple? And saying something about saturation (although I still laughed at that for some reason X3) And the part where you where shaking helena and all those words flew out of her I only played 1 (remake), 2, 3, 4, and code Veronica so after that I honestly don't know anything :x
It's okay! Basically Jake kinda has a "cool guy" thing with apples. In a few cutscenes he tosses an apple in the air, does a bunch of "cool stunts" then catches it to take a bite. Super original. And since he is Wesker's illegitimate son, I had him randomly say a popular Wesker quote ("Golbal Saturation" from RE5). The words flying out of Helena are things like "Tell you later!" "Not now!" "Some other time!" Because throughout the entire first half of that campaign, she keeps stringing Leon along promising to tell him who she is and her reasons for being there... But she never actually does. She'll be like "I'll tell you when we get out of this building!" But then once they're out, she's like "No I'll tell you once we're out of the town," Then "No wait! I'll tell you at the church..." And it just keeps going on on and... and on. And it's really annoying.
yo leggy, could you help me please? there are some things i would like to know before i submit my translation for "no hope left". what does this guy at 1:12 say? in the subtitles it says "japanese desu", so i googled it but the definition of "desu" seams to be "end of a sentence", which doesnt make any sense to me. rman words. no hope left actualy turns out to be quiete difficult to translate. still i want to give it a shot.
*Complete Global Saturation:* "The entire world will be infected." *So that's how it's gonna be, huh?:* That's generally something said in English after a bad or disagreeable event happens. Basically it's sarcasm for the more genuine: "Why does it have to be this way?" *Japanese Desu:* In Japanese language, "Desu" is sometimes used at the end of a sentence to mean "it is" or I am". But in modern America, it's become a big cliche / joke among anime fans because it gets so overused as a "cute" word in anime. In this context, it literally has no context or true meaning besides being a joke-word.
Resident Evil 6 was fine with me, my problem was with the plot and all the over the top action sequences, but the atmosphere was cool, the change in control schemes was cool too for each character, something I think was totally needed. The new Nemesis, the return of the zombies(kinda) and a melee oriented character were all really cool ideas. Then again, the over the top action sequences and plot.. ugh. I know a lot of people will try and tell me that I don't know good gaming, or that I don't understand what the RE series means to people; but trust me, I do. My first video game purchase ever was Resident Evil 2, Dual Shock Edition. I remember getting so frustrated with the first part on the street, eventually putting the game down for months because the furthest I could get was a part where you jump down a dumpster and immediately get flanked by 2 zombies, while a third lurches down the ally way towards you. That's how much of an impact that game had on me, I can remember the whole initial sequence like it was yesterday. They were brilliant games, and I remember being overjoyed with the changes that came in Resident Evil 4, finally being able to aim at the monsters heads, rather than the janky shooting past the camera at a zombie I know is there but can't see because it's killed me 3 times already. I wish there was a happy marriage between the old stationary cameras, and the sleek over the shoulder action we have now, but I don't think it can really happen. Either you're going to get sick from the camera snapping from one spot to the other every time you aim, or you know there is going to be trouble because the camera starts following over your shoulder when you enter the next room. When you get right down to it, Resident Evil 6 was the eventual outcome of the increase of hardware and software power. Eventually the stationary cameras aren't necessary anymore, suddenly you can have fluid combat against hordes of monsters, rather than firing blindly down a street and being happy that the bullets travel such a wide cone due to horrible camera angles that you can aim 2 feet next to a zombie and still somehow hit it in the chest. Does this mean we should accept Resident Evil 5 and 6? Hell no! I hated the Hollywood over the top crap the series has become. I can see it in a spin off game, cough cough ORC. But the main series should be about atmosphere and mystery, not cutscenes and explosions. That crap doesn't belong in the main framework that the hardcore fans follow because it's how we learn more about the story. If there is any hope left for Resident Evil fans, it's in an upcoming game by Bethesda; The Evil Within.
Yeah, Resident Evil 5 was a complete mess in every way. As for RE6, the subplot, the secret of Raccoon City, is that it was a government coverup, Umbrella being a branch of the government. I thought it was pretty clear about that, since one of the villains, I forget his name, along with most of the forgettable characters in the game, was a politician involved with Umbrella. The big reveal was that Umbrella was never actually dissolved, it's still there, just operating covertly.
***** The government never attacked itself. Tall Oaks was attacked by Simmons, who may have worked for the government, but had no loyalty to them. It was an assassination attempt on the President that succeeded. Sherry was never with Wesker. She was under care of the government after Raccoon City. Wesker used people on the inside to keep an eye on her but he never had her in his custody. Jill is either retired or still recovering from the events of RE5. It may have been a couple years prior but she was under the influence of P30 for three years before Chris rescued her. It's not surprising to me that she wasn't present during the events of RE6. None of this disregards the plot being really silly and out there, but just thought I would clear a few things up.
Sincado Resident Evil really outgrew the whole survival horror genre which is the main reason i dislike them so much... RE 4 was like the last part i could stomach... 5 offered something new to the table but took place in freaking Africa... too bright for zombie attacks and jump scares. The cameras already made this easier because when you have it player controlled, you could easily miss something near you, if your attention was not being diverted that way. Even zombies were replaced by parasitic hosts that were just too...meh for me. Outright mediocre enemies that were a far cry of something that made Resident Evil... well, Resident Evil. I can't claim that only a dark environment and old enemies are the missing link for the series. The whole game was based on something that was dark, mysterious and a part of a Government cover-up that you, as a bystander - working as the lowest government official, had to discover by piecing together bits of information trailing from those branches to the root of the problem; A branch of Umbrella Corporation operating within the city, running such experiments on their citizens and it has gotten beyond their control. This was fun and exciting because it was new. The story as well thought out and they've made it so that sequels of those games were continuing it but there is always that point of how long can you drag it out... Resident Evil 4 was that line. After that, the franchise was running on fumes, because the original players drawn to survival horror outgrew the first ever console to be able to run such an old game. New players were literally growing up on the computers and internet and everyone was interested in CoD. And when every company wants a piece of that giant cake that we call profit, this is how things get ruined. Player base that was in love in original Resident Evil is slowly dying out. And nostalgia doesn't pay much. Sure, you can repack the old game, dress it up in better graphics and even remake it from scratch but let's face it: who's gonna play it? Games that offer the best graphics and more fast-paced play style are winning over the market. If it were up to me, i personally would call it an end of Resident Evil. Close the chapter of a great installment and think of something else to make rather then continuing this...massacre. Resident Evil was never meant to evolve into a shooter.
If this was the inevitable outcome, then that's why I've always said Resident Evil should have ended a long time ago. Hardcore fan as I am, I'd of rather seen it die out with some dignity than become what it has; But that's just me. I say if you wanna make something so drastically different, just make a new game series. Look at Devil May Cry: It was basically the RE4 Alpha and became a large success of its own right. Why not just do that again? There's only one reason. Money, money, money. Kinda sad.
I think it's really interesting that it's so hard to pin down exactly when the series punched the boulder. I mean, it's easy to point at RE5 and say, this is where the real crap started. But then you realize, a lot of the stuff that happened in RE5 was actually rehashing of RE4. You can say that it came with the quick responses and dodge shooting, but all that started in RE3. It would be cool to see people really attempt to explain what exactly happened that alienated the fan base so much. I have really high hopes for The Evil Within being the next great Survival Horror game, since it's coming from the guy that made RE4, but then, RE4 was kinda where things started going downhill... Maybe.
The old resident evil had a certain "Atmosphere", that you feel completely lost against everything, how you could use the environment to your advantage " not just mad-bashing instant action sequences". the feeling that you are trying to ESCAPE by listening to your INSTINCTS ,navigating was an important part of the first three games. Also the feeling that you don't know what you are fighting and collecting every file trying to understand your enemy.i Think the only part in re4 that was a classic resident evil is when you control Ashley and try to survive without weapons and solve puzzles.
Yeah, dem feels. Back when you'd walk on purpose from being too nervous to charge around a corner. Now RE6 has you being FORCED to walk in Leon's campaign, as if to say "We sweeeaaar it's gon' be soooo scurry!!!" And then it never is.
***** yeah, also notice how they nearly eliminated elements like back-tracking. in old re you might know where you should be going but still you'd back-track the whole area to find a solution to get through. also the random events that should happen to you if you want to get to another area. some people may think it's boring, but survival horror is about experience not just killing "scary" creatures.
"No Hope Left"? You got that part right!
That was awesome :) Me and my friend enjoyed Resi 6 but... just not for being Resi. It was an action game. Full stop. It was stupid, over-the-top, bulls*** to put it bluntly.
APPARENTLY Capcom said they felt guilty about what they'd done to RE as a series and said they want to take it back to its original roots, but we're yet to see that aren't we? (That was announced after the release of Resi 6.) Btw, Leggeh, I-NFECTED has been Greenlit on STEAM if I remember correctly :) So not all is lost if Capcom doesn't get back on track.
P.S. - F*** EVERYONE who said the melee was useless in previous RE's and that the movement needed to be less "tank-like"
im guessing you didnt like re6
TheOnly1Zalo No worries, the newer RE titles may suck, but now that I've had my say on them, I'll be going back to making videos about the ones we love! I left out an intro song because I didn't want the credits to get too long (like last time, yeesh).
***** Regardless whether or not I enjoy the games, I love parodies and well... pisstakes. I find them fun. Your videos are fun and a joy to watch.
Is that your real voice?
You successfully survived your ultimate nightmare
yeti112 holy shit it you what up
Holy shit i was here.... Dude j
Top 10 crossover of the history of anime
I'm nikoli and I hate you
When you finished RE 2 and 3: Thank goodness, we survived the Raccoon City incident! I'm glad that's over.
When you finish RE 6: PLEASE TAKE ME BACK TO RACCOON CITY!
XD! Perfect.
Yeah,
RE6 really did sucked and it was boring.
It made me replay RE2:Remake and RE4.
I know this video is like 5-6 years old, but this is exactly how I felt after bother the Metal Gear Solid franchise and Gears of War franchise was ruined.
I think everyone has a game series that has burned them in one way or another. We stand in solidarity. 😆
Actually, in my opinion RE6 is pretty great. I like it how they make the story to meet up all the old characters. It just like a reunion lol. It really surprise me they've added Sherry Birkins back. And yeah, I kind of hate it too when they added some random new characters. Maybe the next series we will have a good stories and reunite back all Resident Evil's characters? Or more making a new Resident Evil remake? Once again, this is just my opinion~
are you serious? i respect your opinion but seriously...
Its not really Raccoon City reunion if there is no Claire or Jill.
Leggy, there are no words to describe the perfection of that last scene with the RE 3 ending parody, it was excellent! Btw, props to you for the Nightwish part =) Keep up the good work
Yo thanks! It was fun to make but also sad as fuck XD
Was that your real voice? Nicely done. I'm actually playing through RE6. So far...eh.
capcom just needs to rerelease re0-3 again with updated graphics in some sort of resident evil classic pack or something
just update the graphics and keep the old gameplay, maybe put in a few new things to scare us like how awesome lost in nightmares was but with fixed camera angles
re1 remake was good, mostly, if only they could do more of those
REMake was amazing; Probably one of the best RE games to date. If they could legitimately pull that off again with RE2 and RE3 it'd be amazing. But by this point, I'm worried they'd fuck it all up somehow.
Emigdiosback the only thing i liked from that game was the trailer for it
That might not be a safe idea, it could turn out the way the Silent Hill HD collection did, and TRSHE pretty much summed THAT up.
goldtaills what's wrong with the silent hill hd collection?
the only thing that was missing was silent hill 4
I share these feelings for the franchise I truly miss the good ol survival horror days! sadly those days may never return now. putting all my mainstream survival horror hope in the evil within right now
7 years later and hope has brought us the two great remakes and village. Looks like nothing impossible
RE4: Succeeded in changing Resident Evil while still being scary.
RE5: Killed the franchise.
RE6: Buried the Franchise.
And you wanna know the sad part? RE: Revelations is a prime example of implementing Survival-Horror into this new gameplay style.
I HAVE NEVER FELT MORE RELATABLE IN MY ENTIRE LIFE LMAO
Seeing your videos in my subscription feed brings back so many awesome memories! Still excited to see your new videos!
Anyways, not only does this video sum up my similar emotions towards Resident Evil, but it also works with Silent Hill.
Yee yo cool! Sadly Silent Hill is long gone from its glory days too, though I do think in terms of story and characters, they're FAR better off than Resident Evil has been lately.
***** That is true, Silent Hill has gone downhill but they introduced new characters in nearly every sequel so they weren't able to be altered. Resident Evil has characters who often reappear and Capcom wound up bastardizing them. Rest in peace to classic survival horror games.
I actually liked RE 6, haha! I can understand everyone's reasoning why they didn't like it, but I personally loved it. Out of the newest model games, I'd place 4 in first place, and then 6, and then 5. But yeah, obviously nothing beats the early series (though 4 is extremely close).
It's all good! If you enjoy them then don't no sane person got anything against that.
RE6 was a fun game, but the only thing that even reminds me of the original REs are the characters.
Oh God...CapCom, what have you done...you made Leggy gone mad...
RE6 was very cool for me... u.u i love every RE game :3
Same even the ones that scared the pants out of me
Me commenting on a ShadowLeggy video. So nostalgic.
Yea, miss the old Resident Evil, mostly RE3. RE6 is great, but not for RE series...
agreed... if the other half of 6 would have focused of those fucking grotesque abominable monsters and horror it would not be so unbalanced feeling unfinished giving no characters real moments or scenes of horror and i miss good ol re gore and original monster scares and brutal teammate deaths that you hope and pray for to make it out alive at least chris's campaign treid to capture that but it was for only half of a mission and was to short... i fucking love sherry but hate jake (he tries to hard mostly to replace wesker but mercenaries are not good people or have good senses of humor or sense of moral or giving half a shit about others lives like this poser douche bag does... sherry deservers more, a real fucking man)
It's been seven years since I have last watched your Resident Evil Numa video, and all I can say is thank you for the great memories. Even now I smile whenever I remember watching that video as a ten year old kid. Seriously though thanks.
Been 4 years since my last leggy video, glad to see you're still alive and making content!
Happy to do so!
A new video! *Gasp*
A truly sad topic but....the end totally made me laugh xD
I've never touched RE6, and I'm glad I didn't.
Oh man! I used to watch your videos such a long time ago, (And they were the reason why I decided to practice drawing!) I come back here out of curiosity and you're still making these RE animations. Fucking awesome. It's so cool seeing your artstyle improve over time.
Those 7 years went by fast, huh.
OMG, You did voice acting AND put a Nightwish song in one of your videos.
I love you again.
Well I really like RE6. The graphics are not the best and the gameplay is maybe stupid but I think Capcom made a good job with the story and the characters. Okay, Carla was stupid but Leons part was great, the interaction with all the characters was great and they gave us so many old characters and many references to the old games. And IMO Jake and Helena are great new characters and I hope we will see them again. RE is maybe not so scary anymore but well...I care more for other things.
6Kubik I personally mostly care about story as well, and I still think RE6 seriously dropped the ball on that. For me, the best part was Sherry returning, though even that could have been done a lot - a LOT better. It just feels like an empty shell of its former glory in all aspects, for me at least.
***** Just wait till RE Revelations 2, Barry is coming back for a Claire sandwich
I literally think the exact opposite. The graphics are pretty and the game mechanics are fun (though too action oriented) I think the story in every way is utter garbage and does nothing to bring the story forward. However I do think Jake has potential... But bringing Sherry back wasn't that great.. They couldn't even find a different voice actress......(I'm going off on a tangent now)
You need more views than PewDiePie :/
You deserve more than you have, anyway.
Moot Well thank you, it's understandable though. Not trying to patronize the Let's Play community but it's so much easier to record yourself playing hours of game footage, and people like constant uploads. Since animating usually takes months just to finish a single one, it makes sense that not as many people stick around.
***** I know, but still... >.<
Just need more people to share your videos so you can get more subs. No need in having constant uploads, which can get pretty annoying IMO. I like a steady flow of quality goodness in my feed over a flood of Let's Play any day ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Either way, I really like your designs. They have so much life and you've come a long way! I remember when you first uploaded RE Numa and my friends and I were all laughing.
So much improvement! Your improvements kind of make me wonder what you could do with another "RE Numa ReRemake" if/whenever you run out of song ideas. It seems like everyone has forgotten about that song and it's one of those that could make a huge RE-entry... Omg lol. xD Just tossing an idea around~
Moot Yeah I agree there, it's actually a bit overwhelming when someone uploads something every single day. I don't always have the time to watch so much stuff coming out constantly. But other than being happy to know that people like my work, I don't really get much else out of having subscribers and views. Besides donations and Patreon, my channel isn't monetized or anything so having a big subscriber or view count doesn't do much else outside of popularity. But I guess that's not a bad little bonus to have!Thanks so much! I'm glad you like the new art and animation style, and I'd love to try my hand at a Numa "REMaster" someday. With all the other videos I have in mind, I might keep it on the back burner for a 10 year anniversary remake instead.
***** Hahaha You're awesome! I'm definitely looking forward to it, I know how much work goes into animating so no rush on your work or anything. Just keep doing what you're doing... You got me wondering what could possibly happen in Claire's next minisode lol.
You can get the trailer music and sheet music via the composer’s Bandcamp: It’s called ‘Sweet Melancholia’ by composer Stephen Kilpatrick. He’s on twitter as Soundfackery, and his RUclips is Stephen Kilpatrick (with the highest subscriber list). Original pianist Lauryna Sableviciute.
That Resident Evil 3 edited ending and Resident Evil 2 ending theme! Leggy, you're a genius!
is it me or did i kinda hope resident evil 2 would get an hd remake?
We all hope, but Capcom doesn't seem to want to ever deliver. At this point they'd prolly screw it up somehow anyway. There's a group of indie developers however, who are working on an RE2 REmake. It looks nice in terms of grpahics and whatnot, but unfortunately it's focusing on the over-used-enough-already-god-fucking-dammit over the shoulder style of gameplay.
***** thanks leg! you really brightened up my day eveon more! also resident evil 4 got an hd why not just rerealease the series in hd? also remove that frekin survival horror camera
***** i went to check it out when i read your comment on an re2 remake and it seems that the over the shoulder camera will be optional but i am not sure since i just heard of this but if u want to check it out heres the link:
www.kdramastars.com/articles/14950/20140129/resident-evil-2-remake-reborn-hd.htm
forastero54321 I'm pretty sure the good ol' camera angles will be optional in it as it was shown in one of the alpha videos.
***** Yeah, just checked it out myself from forastero54321's link :) You can choose 3rd Person Shoulder Cam or Fixed Camera.
okay for me this franchise stops at RE5 and the only reason for that is cause u get to play as jill, i mean the dlc lost in nightmares 100 times better then the actual game.
RE5 was a good game, just not a good RESI game.
well i only still play it cause of slayers and i like there finishers thats about it.
I've loved your animations for a LONG time now, and it just keeps getting better!
I also wanted to say, it's been awhile since I saw your videos. I love the new art style! It's great to see you again.
I love you, this was amazing!!!!!!!!
RE 6 is nothing compared to RE Revelations...
:O SHADOWLEGGY! God i remember watching your first video when you had like 50 views! I'm so glad youre active again! :D
Glad to hear it, thank you!
Man its great to see how you've improved, i remember watching your videos back in 7th grade 6 years ago. i think imma go back and watch the all again :D
Daww thanks!
First Impressions of the *_Resident Evil 7_* trailer / demo: fav.me/da6bi2h
Why did you spare Sherry?
syoma fukasaku She had a lazy, shitty backstory, but otherwise she wasn't so bad. Not an annoying character like the others.
Leon and Piers are spared too... I'm really thankful because I like Piers so much
Kimberly Archer Actually if you look closer Leon is knocked out with all the bodies
I just finished Resident Evil 6 today. Great timing, Leggy, and fantastic work. Love that you're making a comeback. Me and the rest of your die hard fans will continue to support you. Thank you.
Yo perfect. XD Thanks very much!
Omg, I have watched you grow since you first started tour videos. I still am absolutely smitten by you. Keep it up, Leggy!
Aryssa Reller Thanks for sticking with me since the beginning!
***** No problem girl! You are what helped my best friend and I become, well, best friends. Can't wait to see more!
You have an awesome channel, and your art have evolved nicely, but this make you sound like a bitter nostalgic fangirl, now before anyone point out, nobody cares for my opinion, and I am a bad person for likening RE6
Thanks very much! I guess it's understandable if this seems to come off as "bitter nostalgic fangirl" but it's merely my own opinion as well. I could easily retort that anyone who enjoys the newer games are easily pleased casuals with low standards... But what will we really accomplish with petty name-calling and labels?
Fair enough, but then again this is just my opinion, about this particular video and the feeling it have, I've played most RE new and old, I just so happen to prefer the newer ones, well....5....lets not talk about 5, I think saying RE 6 is a mediocre game, "Because is not scary." is easily one of the weakest arguments, because RE was never really scary, and as of 2 where there was enough ammo to be comfortable for the whole game, people can't really say the action overlap was not expected, besides 6 story is pretty neat once you get the hang of it. But oh well, anyway congratulations on your channel again. Honestly your Ada Wong video is one of the funniest things I've ever seem, hehe so you don't think I am hating on you or your channel or anything, being the Devil's Advocate is pretty annoying at times.
Ramus N. Well I don't think I've ever personally said that RE6 is mediocre only because it's "not scary" (scariness is subjective anyway). I think RE6 is mediocre in the way that it plays like a watered down version or a generic action shooter. Though honestly, I think it's even worse than mediocre due to the unstable camera, messy controls and confusing inventory system. Not to mention the games plot feels extremely convoluted and all over the place, especially when there are other characters and plots that need closure from past games. But again, that's just my own opinion on it; I have my specific reasons and it's not only because I prefer the older games.
I understand, and appreciate it! I sometimes play Devil's Advocate too when it comes to RE4.
***** Hehe, I must be sounding aggressive, oh well, I am sorry for that. Camera wise is more sensible yes, but I don't think is unstable, it is easy so look your surrounding with it, I never got the "Messy controllers argument." for me it feels normal, nothing extremely good, but far from bad. Well I've told you my opinion on the plot, eh? Ada deliver some powerful phrases during her part, and Chris have one of the most original endings in the series.
Hmm, if you have the time I would love to hear, your feeling towards the old games and why.
Ramus N. It's fine, I just wanted to make it clear why I feel the way I do in the off-chance that false assumptions start to spread around.
I've played similar style games such as MGS4 and Dead Space but those right-stick cameras felt and moved decently. For whatever reason, RE6's just feels like a loose cannon in comparison. For general controls, I can't say I'm a fan of new-style games in general. I feel like they try to include way too many controls and features, with almost random button placement. Like what was wrong with just having X be the use/shoot button? But yeah that's just personal preference in any case.
The reasons for why I like the older games goes on and on so this might get a bit long. Having camera angles gives so much atmosphere, almost as if you're playing a movie. And while I may be in the minority, I feel the best controls for camera-angle games are tank. With all that I find it extremely immersive, not to mention having no HUD during gameplay aside from seeing your character's physical state. Compare that with the new games that have so many displays, flashing bells & whistles and it just makes it feel like any old generic shooting game.
The maps were expansive even when only dealing with one area, like a mansion or police station. You could explore everything eventually, giving you the drive to solve the next puzzle so you could venture on. Again, compare that with RE6... Sure, that game technically took you all over the world, but it certainly didn't feel like it. Every area felt like a cramped little hallway with nothing but a straightforward path, requiring zero brainpower or feelings of accomplishment afterwards. And on that note, the puzzles in the originals were fun, challenging and actually had repercussions for some if you failed them. The new games simply do not have puzzles; None that require more than a few seconds of thinking anyway.
Item management was limited but orderly. Part of the challenge was deciding what weapon to bring, extra ammo or healing. And those items were limited. You'd wonder if it'll be enough to keep you alive through the next area, or if you should hold onto key items needed to progress. Nowadays ammo and health practically rains from the sky, limited inventory doesn't even matter since you find so much of it. Not to mention RE6's inventory layout was absolutely atrocious anyway. Also, limiting saves and making you do it manually added to the tension and challenge. Autosaves dispose of all that.
For now I'll wrap it up with the plot. The originals were simple but each had a drive behind them to keep going, keep furthering the plot to some underlying conclusions. The original uncovered the Umbrella conspiracy. The sequel brought us newcomers with relation to the characters from the first; We get the subplot of Claire trying to find her brother. Continuing off of that, we follow Jill's similar quest in locating Chris and the rest of the team so that they can stop Umbrella together. We get partial closure with Claire finding Chris in Code Veronica... Slowly but surely each game has a similar theme of the STARS and other outside help coming together for a final confrontation of exposing Umbrella and then... RE4 shit all over that. And now we're here. I hope that explains a few things!
Capcom know what the fans want yet they continue to spew this garbage, I want to see what a board meeting is like when they discuss Resident Evil. "Soooo should we go back to survival horror like the good old glory days?....Naaahhhh, just stick more action in there and I'm sure they will love it" I'm glad Capcom are going out of business, the crimes they've commited against gaming is unforgiveable. (Sorry for the rant, I'm very passionate about Resident Evil) Can you tell? :p
I'm not sure of Capcom's condition in the market rn, so I can't say much, but while they're losing old fans, they're gaining many new ones that only care about action.
mayhudson Yeah that's true, You'd think their top priority would be to keep old fans happy, not totally screw them over with CoD influenced trash.
UrdnotWrex88 you're talking about a company that totally dumped a very loved fan aided project (legends 3) think they've just about given up at this point. They know what the fans want, they just don't want to deliver
I really don't understand it either. If someone wants to play Call of Duty, then they're gonna play Call of Duty. Capcom doesn't stand a chance against them, they need to stick with what they're good at; Or should I say, used to be good at.
I say they just gave up, like they are done, this is the kind of attitude a high school student has when they think school is just a waste of time.
As an owner of a RE OC that is Wesker's daughter. I believe Jake is totally uncalled for. My OC's mother never said anything to Wesker either... Oh gosh when I saw RE6 I felt they had seen my OC's old ugly Bio. Some things need to stay in the fanfics and never be canon. (Still love my OC though.)
Dang watching this after two years I busted out laughing at Ada meeting Carla haha
originals are best 0 1 2 3 code v.
Blablabla..After RE: CV, RE is total crap. Blablabla, the fans feel betrayed. Blablabla, Capcom hates us all. God, I really like your videos Leggy, but sometimes I just find my self hating your way of thinking. I've been a huge fan of the RE saga since it's first chapter, but I like the new ones as well. First of, I never understood why RE5 was disliked so much by the old fanbase when RE4 (that I really think is the worst one of the series) was thought to be good. RE5 had one of the best story in the series, and the characters where actually better characterized then they ever were. Sure, it's easy to stop at Chris new bodybuilder look, but all of the plot involving his rivalty with Wesker, his old partnership with Jill and his fight to B.O.W.s was pretty damn good material. Besides, the game was actually fun! It still has one of the nicest CO-OP mode. Sure they could've done better with some of the mechanics but the gameplay was fine and SURELY it didn't suck. As for RE6, I didn't like it much myself, but even there there was good material: Chris campaing was emotional, filled with action and good scenes.
Leon's was bad, I'll give you that, and Jake's creation could've been avoided altogether, but his partnership with Sherry was well built. RE6 problem was really the gameplay and many of the story elements (Simmons, Carla, the Family, Neo Umbrella and so on). So yeah, I can understand why you dislike RE6 since I dislike it myself, but saying that it's total crap is totally esagerated. Btw, how can you say Capcom isn't making any good RE anymore? In my eyes the only flop was really RE6 (and RE4 was pretty bad), but do we wanna talk about Revelations? Everyone seems to agree that it's the best RE around since Code Veronica. Capcom has his ups and downs but is still a good company. You're acting like the new DmC's haters. I liked the last one, not as much as the first four i admit, but it was a good action game. So yeah, sorry for the outburst, but I really think you should be less biased (if that's the word, sorry I'm Italian).
Well with the RE5 thing, let me tell you that you're preaching to the choir. I also think it's really stupid that RE5 gets hate from RE4 fans since they basically play the same. If anything, RE5 improved upon some of the stiff awkwardness RE4 had. So in case you were thinking so, I'm not one of those hypocritical fans; I hate RE4 and RE5 just about equally.
I'll agree that RE5 more or less handled its returning characters better, save for maybe Wesker who went all "cliche comic book villain" as the game itself states. I can't completely agree the story was all that good, but it least it (seemed to) finish the story arch for Jill and Chris. That is, until they decided to keep milking the franchise with RE6.
Maybe my opinion is exaggerated. But you know what, I've been a loyal fan and customer of this series for a long time so I don't feel I'm completely in the wrong for my opinions on where the series has gone. Outside of RUclips I've said my piece on Revelations; Too keep it short it was not a horrible game. But it certainly wasn't an amazing game either. People are building it up far more than it deserves, simply because it's the "least shitty" RE game in the past 14 years.
Capcom actually has more downs lately... They're going to be sold off through stock/shares because they are in some deep financial shit. Mainly because of all their recent mistakes. So, I'm actually not biased, that's just a straight up fact; Google it, or even search on RUclips and you'll find some videos talking about it.

Any toughts on Claire returning as a MC in Revelations 2? They're also going to introduce "Moira Burton", daughter of Barry. Strange choice considering that Claire never actually met Barry. Anyway, things like these are the proof that the new direction seems to care enough for a solid storyline and the feedback of the fans. Also the fact that they didn't jump straight to RE7 and start developing a sequel to a well received spin off, could also mean that this could be a new fine start for the franchise. Revelations was well received by both the old fanbase and the new one, if they continue down on that road RE has a bright future up ahead. Better than the "reboot alternative" anyway, don't you agree?
Welcome back.
I was a little nervous while she was beating them down. All I could think of was: "Shit! She might kill the cast of Left 4 Dead also!!"
L4D2 is very safe!
I wonder How you will feel after seeing Re7 ;__;
if this is Far (re6 i mean)
re7 is OVER THE COUNTER
Re6 es un juego para inutiles porque no tenes que pensar en ningun momento es puro tiroteos, asta quitaron el mapa,aruinaron a los protagonistas y el argumenton
se volvio un aburrido shooter :c al menos me ubiera gustado que pusieran la maquina de escribir :c se pudrio todo
I came here looking for that Alfred video to show my little sister, and I find a new video! Woop :P. I was looking forward to your LeggaMJmon videogame series taking off but only saw a few videos released. Anyway, I'm glad you're back! You will always be a legend.
Ohh yeah, we still have some footage that needs to be edited for the L4D2 stuff but we're both just really busy lately and editing isn't always as simple as it seems! Hopefully at some point we can just make some time for it though.
I look forward to it.
Ermahgerd you're back! I had the overwhelming urge to watch some of your old stuff and there is new stuff!!! Yay :). Great to see you XD.
Yee! Thanks :D
now RE5 sucked big time but RE6 was excellent so haters gonna hate!
I like how Sherry was the only one relatively unscathed.
Every Sonic fan:
First time?
My heart goes out to the OG Sonic fandom.
Chris went from steroids freak to Alcoholic which I teased my friends about. " Come on guys! Who decided to let Chris drive? Now you'll never catch Ada Wong since he probably had a few before the mission started."
Lol at your reimagining of RE3's ending scene, ShadowLeggy. ^_^
Thanks, I had a hoot recording it XD
1:13 what does this part say??
Haha that was a stroke of genius XD loved the part where they grew up with RE2's tyrant theme XD
Was that Nightwish in the background I heard? Or am I just hearing things. XD Anyways, nice vid, seriously cracked me up. XD
Yep it was! Yo thanks :D
Thank you. :P No problem.
I lost count on how many times I've watched this and just died laughing at the Piers shot. Goddamn that's some GOOD SHIT.
Gurl you know it, he is King Kawaii of Manga Mountain.
You're stuff is always the funniest. Would be cool to draw me as zombie next video
Thank you for the nice comments! Zombie cameos are given to those who participate with my Patreon, since it's always been such a heavily requested aspect.
Glad to see I am not the only one who still loves my classic resident evil collection.
P.s. I love the fact shawdowleggy got over her fear of criticism over her voice! Your fans love you, and your voice is amazing! Hope to see move videos!
Thanks, I appreciate it! Back in the day, I was mostly worrying over a couple of crazed internet stalkers and didn't wanna do anything too "revealing" if that makes any damn sense.
***** That makes perfect sense and anyways I think it's cooler that that you don't show a picture of your true face and have your own animated character instead since I never like finding out the voice actors behind characters I like. Sometimes the voice actors aren't what you expect (not that I am saying you wouldn't be cool) I just prefer my heroes to wear masks and cool customs if that makes any sense.
Shadowleggy, I can understand. It's Noble but with fandom that just tends to happen. Take for example someone who posts on all your videos and under every comment you reply to. -_- ... Anyways, I don't agree that it's bad to see for example a voice actors face, considering I love seeing how they react to what they say, (But that is mostly only for tv cartoons, anime, etc.) I am not saying be like egoraptor who shows his face, since everyone is different. But yeah I don't think I would want people harassing me over things I love doing. It's good for lone wolfing, but never be shy about who you are. Your worth is what you make it, and screw those who annoy you. Eitherway, I talk to much. Keep up the fantastic work. Btw, Hunk and Claire are my favorite characters, with Rebecca 3rd... Glad they weren't completely destroyed by capcom.......yet.
Holy shit and potatoes! This one looks really really good! Wow! Aside from the content and subject matter being RE6, this little short is breathtakingly HD AS FUCK! So eloquent.
I remember dat redub. It's beautiful... "Turned into crap." XD Really though lady, this looks really pro. You should be very proud of how much your animation has grown, and will continue to grow (apparently!) Just when I think you can't get much better, you do. With each video and drawing you just get better! ;) that is not easy to do, but you do it every time lately!
I know RE6 is not exactly easy to bear when you make a video from personal experience, but YOU DID IT FOR THE YOLO SWAG! I know I and probably the rest of your fans thank you for this video :) Even an RE6 fanboy can't possibly shit on a video that looks and sounds this good. I like how there's so much going on, and Nightwish FTW!
P.s. I guess you did make an RE6 video now! Hell may have froze over :P
Leggy is back from the dead! W-with a vengance ... Please don't hurt us.
+FabbyTheTeddy Thank you so much! I'm happy to hear you like my new art as well; The years certainly flew. And good luck with your own art and improvements!
Are you a femele or male ??
sandriana puti tama
Leggy is female.
Now now,I suppose Capcom may still redeem themselves with Resident Evils 7-14...And I typed all of that with a straight face...I mean,C`mon Evil Within!
The Legendary shadow leggy has returned after a well deserved break of only.... 4 months, but they felt like the previous 2 breaks of two years.
ALL HAIL THE GODESS OF RESIDENT EVIL
I like how you have Arc around, is he now your side-kick or punch buddy?
A lil' of both, but the punching will only happen if he doesn't do his damn job right.
I am three years late, but I can't stop watching your videos (old or new, they're all awesome). In the beginning, when you wrecked almost all the characters- but not Sherry? Is it because you like her or 'cause of something else? I mean, I do love her, whether it's RE2, Chronicles or RE6. The question has been remaining in my head for some time..
But anyway, I love your animations and your unique style. I can see that you put a lot of work into your videos, which definetly pays off. Please keep making these Musicals. And thank you for your time.
Thank you! Basically, I thought Sherry was an alright character, but at the same time wasted potential. She wasn't annoying like Jake, but the whole "hurr durr werks fer da government" plot is so tired and stupid at this point. Plus, some of the fan-service they forced her into was kinda disturbing.
I'm glad you answered. I also think they could've made her into something more interesting, actually I was even surprised that she had those healing powers that connect to RE2. It was a nice little thing in the game, but there should have been more of that (Not just Jake questioning it and her surviving literally everything)..
I'm waiting on a ShadowLeggy version of "YOU DONE FUCKED IT UP!" Angry Joe style lmao
Duuude... this was just freaking phenomenal. I wish I had come across this when you released it, but alas work keeps me busy.
Get back to twerk.
*****
*works dat ass*
You've improved so much! Congratulations!
How did you feel about Revalations? It seemed as if it went a little back to survival horror
Glad to see a new video out! Still remaining to be your loyal fans xD loved the video!
This just reminds me I still need to go through Ada's side of the game. I unlocked it, played it some and went "Eh... I'll do this later." And later hasn't come yet. The video made me laugh, even if it's a condensed version of why you didn't like 6.
In the very least, Ada's campaign actually has some puzzles. But the ones that require gunplay are kind of confusing as fuck. And yo glad to hear.
Alright, chaps, the Apocalypse castes it's dark cloak upon our figures! Bard the doors and windows. Load your desired weapons or arm yourself with stock melee weapons, anything to which can destroy the undead and prepare for almost certain doom. **Loads rifle** For now the might beast of Armageddon rears it's ugly head...Resident Evil 6.
I was hoping for a RE6 video from you and now there is! Thank you for it! I couldn't agree more with you. When I was playing RE6, it constantly made me feel like "Oh please, just let it end, I can't take this anymore, let it eeeeeeeeeend!!"
Had the same feels.
That's pretty much also why a lot of people call capcom, Crapcom.
Might I say your artstyle is really nice!
***** Thank you!
You're back, yay!
Glad to see you up and running again. It's been a while. I thoroughly agree too. Leon turned into a Ken doll while Chris became... A walking slab of beef sweating growth hormones.
Thanks very much, happy to be back!
Yeah... sad times. As much as I've carried on in the past about vanished characters (Barry, Rebecca, Claire, etc.) maybe they're the ones who are better off?
I know, Leggy... you've made your point clear on both RE 5 and 6... it's just not the same as the games we grew up on (I'm looking at you, Code Veronica and 2).
So yeah, CAPCOM did jump on the same bandwagon as CoD in terms of turning one of their most successful genres into run-of-the-mill shooters - zombie style.
IMHO, Resident Evil should've never outgrown its original genre, which is survival horror.
I mean, when i was just a kid and playing RE 2, i had nightmares about that game... freaking nightmares and now i look back nostalgically at those happier times when i actually had fun by being too scared to continue the game.
This video is an actual representation of how i feel about RE now, and still it's pretty funny.
Good work! :D
Resident Evil really is going through an insane identity crisis now. I mean I don't mind some things changing with the games; RE1 through Code veronica all had different elements that made them unique from each other and certainly weren't getting boring; At least in my opinion. If anything, there were so many more possibilities for that genre and style but they just decided to call it quits.
A subtle moment in RE6 really spoke to me in how much has changed. As you said, the original games were terrifying; I'd find myself taking baby steps around corners, scared shitless of what may come. RE6, Leon's campaign FORCES you to walk in the beginning as if to say "Better not run! We swear the game is waaay too scary and atmospheric to run yet!" Like mother fucker are you kidding me? This ain't shit!
Amazing ending, it moved me you know?
I recently bought REMake and Zero and couldn't help but whine...
Graphically speaking rem and 0 are so detailed and beautiful. Sometimes I'm surprised to see sloppy or half-ass textures on 6.
It's like they put all the efforts on Leon's and Helena's Hair, and they were bored to finish everything else.
Leggy you are not the only die hard fan...When I bought Rem I marathoned it with a friend on wii without memory (no saves!) on normal, first playthrough, and finished it in 6 and so hours. Just beers, the night, and Rem.
Good old times -Magic.
Yo, sounds perfect.
hi leggy. i hope you dont mind that i bother you so often because i have questions about how to translate the dialogs the correct way. but i love your work, and i want to help make your videos accessable to alot more fans in germany :)
i have questions to "no hope left":
when jake says: "complete, global, saturation", what exactly does the "saturation" stands for? (i think he means, that nobody has to suffer because of starvation anymore, which would explain why jake is holding an apple)
i also cant understand what the guy after jake says.
and last but not least:
i would like to know what you mean when you say the line: "so thats how its gonna be, huh?"
i mean, i basicaly understand what you mean, but its so difficult to put it in german words.
i would really appreciate it if you could help me with these problems ;).
best regards from germany.
I really liked Resident Evil 6, personally. That said, my first Resident Evil was RE 4, so I can understand if Resident Evil fans, Leggy included, wouldn't enjoy the new installments as they are.
I used to watch your videos in Year 7, Leggy! I can't believe you're still animating! So many memories are coming back to me tonight...
DrRichardzz Yeah, I mean I don't mind *some* changes in a game as time goes on, but Resident Evil has been buttfucked into oblivion so far. I hope they can get their heads on straight soon. And yo thanks for watching my stuff for so long!
It's kind of weird seeing RE Musicals where I no longer recognize all the friend-sprites.
My Russian subtitles has been added.
Thank you, they should be on there now!
Helena: "I'll tell you everything once we get to the cathedral"
"I'll explain everything later"
"I'll tell you everything once we get my sister out of here"
........ lol is all I can say, Helena is a piece of work xD
She really is.
Leon: God damn it Helena! Just fucking tell me already!
Me: What he said!
So is Leggy going to beat the crap out of Claire, Moira , Barry and Natalia soon? I can Imagine curse words coming out of Moira's mouth while she is beaten or Are we going to see them in future musicals? Either way I am excited.
syoma fukasaku I haven't played it yet, so I'm not sure. At most, newer games like the original Revelations may not have been total shit like RE6... But more like a "meh" where I don't even care enough to mention them. Not much lovable charm to go off of.
I hope it wont be Meh to you. *crossing fingers*
The strange diseased giraffe logo of RE6... little did we know it was a hint of what was to come... ungainly, hideous and needing to be put out of its misery.
Great vidd Az-U
Personally I couldn't even beat re6 before giving it a permanent retirement in my collection of games, havent touched it since a week after launch and I don't plan on it. The thing about re4 and re5 they had solid gameplay machanics re6 felt like your character was on roller skates and the ammo finding was outrageous you would be stuck fighting 2 bullets at a time because you're constantly picking up and running out of ammo so then you're stuck beating th3 shit out of 800 people being knocked to the floor every 4 seconds just to get up and whacked upside the head with a toaster or some shit (not to mention the constant pill poping...) but on I real note I remember watching this channel in gradeschool and im graduating highschool this year pretty crazy!
Oh I know dat rollerskate feel. Call me crazy but I really just prefer tank controls, even when the games went to over the shoulder mode. Just feels more solid and in control. Though with ammo, I actually had too much most of the time... Maybe because melee made the game too damn easy or it was just the way I played, I don't even know. And yo welcome back to my channel even!
I don't wanna dumb by considering I know nothing of jake muller (or whatever his last name is) can I get a explanation with the part were he has the apple? And saying something about saturation (although I still laughed at that for some reason X3)
And the part where you where shaking helena and all those words flew out of her
I only played 1 (remake), 2, 3, 4, and code Veronica so after that I honestly don't know anything :x
It's okay! Basically Jake kinda has a "cool guy" thing with apples. In a few cutscenes he tosses an apple in the air, does a bunch of "cool stunts" then catches it to take a bite. Super original. And since he is Wesker's illegitimate son, I had him randomly say a popular Wesker quote ("Golbal Saturation" from RE5).
The words flying out of Helena are things like "Tell you later!" "Not now!" "Some other time!" Because throughout the entire first half of that campaign, she keeps stringing Leon along promising to tell him who she is and her reasons for being there... But she never actually does. She'll be like "I'll tell you when we get out of this building!" But then once they're out, she's like "No I'll tell you once we're out of the town," Then "No wait! I'll tell you at the church..." And it just keeps going on on and... and on. And it's really annoying.
Well at least I had a chuckle playing as PS1 Leon on mercenaries
So fking goods to have you back Leggy, I missed you :
yo leggy, could you help me please? there are some things i would like to know before i submit my translation for "no hope left".
what does this guy at 1:12 say? in the subtitles it says "japanese desu", so i googled it but the definition of "desu" seams to be "end of a sentence", which doesnt make any sense to me.
rman words.
no hope left actualy turns out to be quiete difficult to translate. still i want to give it a shot.
*Complete Global Saturation:* "The entire world will be infected."
*So that's how it's gonna be, huh?:* That's generally something said in English after a bad or disagreeable event happens. Basically it's sarcasm for the more genuine: "Why does it have to be this way?"
*Japanese Desu:* In Japanese language, "Desu" is sometimes used at the end of a sentence to mean "it is" or I am". But in modern America, it's become a big cliche / joke among anime fans because it gets so overused as a "cute" word in anime. In this context, it literally has no context or true meaning besides being a joke-word.
Resident Evil 6 was fine with me, my problem was with the plot and all the over the top action sequences, but the atmosphere was cool, the change in control schemes was cool too for each character, something I think was totally needed. The new Nemesis, the return of the zombies(kinda) and a melee oriented character were all really cool ideas. Then again, the over the top action sequences and plot.. ugh.
I know a lot of people will try and tell me that I don't know good gaming, or that I don't understand what the RE series means to people; but trust me, I do. My first video game purchase ever was Resident Evil 2, Dual Shock Edition. I remember getting so frustrated with the first part on the street, eventually putting the game down for months because the furthest I could get was a part where you jump down a dumpster and immediately get flanked by 2 zombies, while a third lurches down the ally way towards you. That's how much of an impact that game had on me, I can remember the whole initial sequence like it was yesterday.
They were brilliant games, and I remember being overjoyed with the changes that came in Resident Evil 4, finally being able to aim at the monsters heads, rather than the janky shooting past the camera at a zombie I know is there but can't see because it's killed me 3 times already. I wish there was a happy marriage between the old stationary cameras, and the sleek over the shoulder action we have now, but I don't think it can really happen. Either you're going to get sick from the camera snapping from one spot to the other every time you aim, or you know there is going to be trouble because the camera starts following over your shoulder when you enter the next room.
When you get right down to it, Resident Evil 6 was the eventual outcome of the increase of hardware and software power. Eventually the stationary cameras aren't necessary anymore, suddenly you can have fluid combat against hordes of monsters, rather than firing blindly down a street and being happy that the bullets travel such a wide cone due to horrible camera angles that you can aim 2 feet next to a zombie and still somehow hit it in the chest.
Does this mean we should accept Resident Evil 5 and 6? Hell no! I hated the Hollywood over the top crap the series has become. I can see it in a spin off game, cough cough ORC. But the main series should be about atmosphere and mystery, not cutscenes and explosions. That crap doesn't belong in the main framework that the hardcore fans follow because it's how we learn more about the story.
If there is any hope left for Resident Evil fans, it's in an upcoming game by Bethesda; The Evil Within.
Yeah, Resident Evil 5 was a complete mess in every way. As for RE6, the subplot, the secret of Raccoon City, is that it was a government coverup, Umbrella being a branch of the government. I thought it was pretty clear about that, since one of the villains, I forget his name, along with most of the forgettable characters in the game, was a politician involved with Umbrella. The big reveal was that Umbrella was never actually dissolved, it's still there, just operating covertly.
***** The government never attacked itself. Tall Oaks was attacked by Simmons, who may have worked for the government, but had no loyalty to them. It was an assassination attempt on the President that succeeded.
Sherry was never with Wesker. She was under care of the government after Raccoon City. Wesker used people on the inside to keep an eye on her but he never had her in his custody.
Jill is either retired or still recovering from the events of RE5. It may have been a couple years prior but she was under the influence of P30 for three years before Chris rescued her. It's not surprising to me that she wasn't present during the events of RE6.
None of this disregards the plot being really silly and out there, but just thought I would clear a few things up.
Sincado
Resident Evil really outgrew the whole survival horror genre which is the main reason i dislike them so much...
RE 4 was like the last part i could stomach... 5 offered something new to the table but took place in freaking Africa... too bright for zombie attacks and jump scares.
The cameras already made this easier because when you have it player controlled, you could easily miss something near you, if your attention was not being diverted that way.
Even zombies were replaced by parasitic hosts that were just too...meh for me.
Outright mediocre enemies that were a far cry of something that made Resident Evil... well, Resident Evil.
I can't claim that only a dark environment and old enemies are the missing link for the series.
The whole game was based on something that was dark, mysterious and a part of a Government cover-up that you, as a bystander - working as the lowest government official, had to discover by piecing together bits of information trailing from those branches to the root of the problem;
A branch of Umbrella Corporation operating within the city, running such experiments on their citizens and it has gotten beyond their control.
This was fun and exciting because it was new. The story as well thought out and they've made it so that sequels of those games were continuing it but there is always that point of how long can you drag it out...
Resident Evil 4 was that line. After that, the franchise was running on fumes, because the original players drawn to survival horror outgrew the first ever console to be able to run such an old game.
New players were literally growing up on the computers and internet and everyone was interested in CoD.
And when every company wants a piece of that giant cake that we call profit, this is how things get ruined.
Player base that was in love in original Resident Evil is slowly dying out.
And nostalgia doesn't pay much.
Sure, you can repack the old game, dress it up in better graphics and even remake it from scratch but let's face it: who's gonna play it?
Games that offer the best graphics and more fast-paced play style are winning over the market.
If it were up to me, i personally would call it an end of Resident Evil.
Close the chapter of a great installment and think of something else to make rather then continuing this...massacre.
Resident Evil was never meant to evolve into a shooter.
If this was the inevitable outcome, then that's why I've always said Resident Evil should have ended a long time ago. Hardcore fan as I am, I'd of rather seen it die out with some dignity than become what it has; But that's just me. I say if you wanna make something so drastically different, just make a new game series. Look at Devil May Cry: It was basically the RE4 Alpha and became a large success of its own right. Why not just do that again? There's only one reason. Money, money, money. Kinda sad.
I think it's really interesting that it's so hard to pin down exactly when the series punched the boulder. I mean, it's easy to point at RE5 and say, this is where the real crap started. But then you realize, a lot of the stuff that happened in RE5 was actually rehashing of RE4. You can say that it came with the quick responses and dodge shooting, but all that started in RE3.
It would be cool to see people really attempt to explain what exactly happened that alienated the fan base so much. I have really high hopes for The Evil Within being the next great Survival Horror game, since it's coming from the guy that made RE4, but then, RE4 was kinda where things started going downhill... Maybe.
Its been awhile he he can't believe how long its been since I have seen one of your videos glad you're back at it
Thanks, glad to be back!
I´m the only one who have noticed that in 0:50 the songs is like a grand fantasia bgm ?
Resident Evil Giraffe. Yup, the series is done. Nice knowing you Resident Evil.
The old resident evil had a certain "Atmosphere", that you feel completely lost against everything, how you could use the environment to your advantage " not just mad-bashing instant action sequences". the feeling that you are trying to ESCAPE by listening to your INSTINCTS ,navigating was an important part of the first three games.
Also the feeling that you don't know what you are fighting and collecting every file trying to understand your enemy.i Think the only part in re4 that was a classic resident evil is when you control Ashley and try to survive without weapons and solve puzzles.
Yeah, dem feels. Back when you'd walk on purpose from being too nervous to charge around a corner. Now RE6 has you being FORCED to walk in Leon's campaign, as if to say "We sweeeaaar it's gon' be soooo scurry!!!" And then it never is.
*****
yeah, also notice how they nearly eliminated elements like back-tracking. in old re you might know where you should be going but still you'd back-track the whole area to find a solution to get through. also the random events that should happen to you if you want to get to another area. some people may think it's boring, but survival horror is about experience not just killing "scary" creatures.
