I love almost all the Resident Evil games. Not all of them are amazing but I love this series none the less. For resident evil 6, I appreciate the intertwining stories with the multiple characters in this game. Yeah, its not a horror game, but it gave us a few new characters and expanded on the lore which I always appreciate.
Expanded on what? This terrible game gave you more questions than answers. You can tell Capcom won't bother even to try to fix that mess as RE7 and RE8 acts like that plot doesn't exist.
@@Noname15514 Try to look at Resident Evils main timeline in totality. Resident Evil 6 does not need to expand in the lore in terms of some kind of virus that exists to improve on another virus. The Resident Evil 6 story purely exists just to be a set of events that intertwined characters that would otherwise not even have met face to face, but because of the epidemic and scale of the C Virus and what countries it affected, it brought Leon and Chris together for the first time, something thats never really happened with reoccuring protoagonists. Look even up to now, we still havent had Jill and Claire meet despite their very close relationship with Chris. Same with Leon and Jill. Despite 6 not being amazing, its still important as an event timelime due to the closing of Resident Evil Revelations 2 which was important due to Claire revealing her knowing Pearce, who ended up being a close friend to Chris who was already experiencing PTSD after the events of 5. Resident Evil 6 as you said led to Capcom giving the series a course correction and to have them improve on not just the horror aspects, but the writing as well with the introduction of the Megamycyte and Oswell Spencers influence which takes the series in its full circle. I understand that Resident Evil 6 isnt the best Resident Evil game and yes it may have not expanded or pushed the series forward, but I appreciate the multi character setup and intertwining campaigns. Its a first that Capcom ever made a game this long in campaign for Resident Evil and like I said, it may not be a great game, but its still part of the main timeline.
I agree with you mate, played all the RE main games, RE6 and RE0 are not my cup of tea, but I still enjoy playing those games and I put effort into getting all the trophies lol
Man, i was 15 when i saw the trailer and some gameplay of this game, and i have to admit, the City scene sure as hell traumatized me, i still had shivers up my spine when i saw it in your video. Great content tho, keep going :3
Another Unpopular Opinion : I LOVE THIS GAME. It lost it's horror theme but focus in the story of the Hero's Journey on Fighting the Bioterrorism based on their Horror Experience in the Past Games (don't get me wrong, I was born in 1990 and I LOVE OG Trilogy). Although it seems thay way, the 4 campaigns is lore rich and diverse in gameplay which for me a Perfect Modern Resident Evil (NO DLC BS! You BUY AND ENJOY THE GAME!) and I prefer this RE over 7 and 8... I just don't like the very very slow build up, uber gore / dark theme and nausea inducing 1st person view.
They say this isn’t a horror game and yeah it’s mainly action but I’m sorry the section where ustanak is using bugs to hear where you are is nightmare fuel
NGL RE6 is a pretty good game all things considered, it just forgot its survival horror roots, which is partly due to the success of re4 and re5s over the top action heavy gameplay.
This series’ lore always took itself just one click too seriously. Like, yeah, it knows it’s silly sometimes (e.g. RE4), but particularly in the animated movies and stage musicals it’s clear that they WANT their cast of characters to have a genuine dramatic complexity that they’ve never earned. It’s like the cast of GI Joe trying to do The Cherry Orchard; like, either lighten up a bit or actually, fully commit to it - you can’t have rending intrapersonal trauma AND eat gibble boulder-punching sandwiches, too.
Too bad the gameplay is god-awful. The levels that are about as linear as a hamster's anus, the poorly explained -if somewhat fun - combat mechanics, the pacing that exclusively consists of 'clear corridor, kick in door', honestly one of the single worst HUD/UIs I've ever seen in a videogame. I was honestly trying to come at it without any prejudice but it's just really bad. I'm a sucker for games with lots of story and content, but in this case I can't be bothered suffering through it.
@@asdf3668Normally is, but seems like this game through a lot more zombies at you, so much that you literally don't have enough ammo to be using it for them all
Me and my wife’s younger brother played chris and piers campaign… We bonded the hell out of the campaign and became very emotional when piers made the sacrifice. It was cheesy in a few places but there arent many couch coop action games better than this….
The '' piers moment '' is like the second saddest thing in the franchise, BSAA lost a real hero that day, it is even more sad that they now work with what was left of umbrella after Racoon city
Resident Evil 5 and 6, while lacking in the horror element, did help my wife who isn't into horror games dive into the franchise. She played 5, 6 and Revelations 2. Thanks for the in-depth analysis as always.
It seemed to get a better reception over time. This video really illustrates a major flaw in RE6. "Hey, remember Sherry Birkini?! Hey, remember Ingrid? Here's some puzzles! Oh, and here's some monsters to shoot! Having fun yet?" They were trying to please everyone and ended up with a disjointed and uneven game.
@@chucklebutt4470 I can agree with that. While I loved the game I would definitely love a game that is just as long, but focuses on one specific group instead of having three campaigns. That could really flush out the lore and add some depth to the characters you were playing. As it stands now when you got to the end of the game and Piers dies it wasn't really all that impactful, especially considering the fact that basically every other person that gets assigned to Chris's team gets killed off, Shiva and Jill not withstanding.
It’s got some incredible and in depth combat that was really overlooked because people were to focused on comparing to older titles, the more you play resi 6 the more you realise just how amazing the dodging and rolling mechanics are
I like to take games as they are... Resident Evil want's really horror games for me since my first one was RE4... 6 was the best for me, a large game with campaigns putting the pieces together to form a complex, yet interesting story. Also, every story has a different tone/theme: Leon's is more horror with less ammo and darker, Chris' is shoot them up (like RE5), Sherry's have you been hunted by an enemy you can't defeat (like Nemesis in previous games) and Ada's solves the mystery of her other self...
Personally I found Jake and Sherry's campaign story to be my favorite. Though, I do think playing the other 2 campaigns helped since their story is a bit more in the background.
I loved their campaign until the end, I felt like Simmons was such a ridiculous concept, way more ridiculous than we've already seen in RE4 and RE5 with Giant robots and eel parasites. I also didn't like the oversexualization of every female character, Helena's sister is literally naked and has insane jiggle physics and poses sexually mid boss fight, Sherry is naked and then scantily clad in Jake's campaign, Carla is shown fully nude exiting her chrysalis which that one is understandable but the camera angles were iffy. I have a huge issue with Sherry Birkin's unlockable costume because it's borderline pedophilic, it's her clothes from RE2 but they barely fit and look like a "slutty student" halloween costume.
Hey Harry, I know the game has been out for a long time, and it’s not really a horror title, but I’d personally love it if you covered Control. I find the background lore incredibly deep and interesting (although it can get very confusing, considering how much intel and collectibles there actually are), characters like Doctor Darling are very charming (Darling is one of my favorite video game characters I’ve seen in a long time) and, considering that you’ve covered Alan Wake already, I feel like it’d fit pretty well in your channel
@@nathangreen4539 I’m not proud to admit I spent way more playtime completely terrified, or at the very least heavily unsettled, than I originally expected. Plus, the whole experience is basically “SCP: the game” without actual SCPs, which is a huge plus to me
Always had a soft spot for this game, felt like the natural progression of the world of resident evil. Constant BOW terror attacks slowly grinding down both society and the Player characters.
Not too long ago, within the year most likely, my fiance and I binged through every campaign, and for that experience this one will remain one of my favorites.
Yeah, I think I’m going to have to watch this one a couple of times! Even with Harry’s impressive talent for figuring out, sorting out and explaining these games, with this one there’s just so much… well, everything really. Still, another great video all the same! I’ll enjoy rewatching it several times trying to keep track of what’s going on!
I personally love this game, not a great RE title, but overall a great action game. And playing 7 different views, pretty cool. No, I dig this game, but that's just me.
When the whole point of the series is to show that people are selling viruses on the black market for war, of course we will have a game more focused on the actual war. These companies are not going to keep throwing viruses in random houses lol, they want super soldiers to fight. Eventually, even if "off-screen" there will be some sort of war where BOWs are being used as soldiers.
I have played RE way back from PS1, and I myself loved this game and how each campaign would cross over the other, especially Ada's. I was glad I played her campaign last because the impact is much higher seeing she was doing her own thing in a more "behind-the-scene" kind of way all the while looking out for the others.
Not to mention her campaign was the hardest in terms of being on her own literally. Felt rewarding on completing hers too Btw i like some of the Master duel stuff you have on your channel. What's your main favorite deck?
@@eddysegafan6655 wow I never realized people actually watch my uploads. sorry for the late reply. I have never really played YGO before, just learned from playing DL and MD. As such, I try to learn all the decks available in game so I don't really have a favorite deck yet. But so far Live Twins is what I use a lot.
@@dravenryoma08 Haha no no that was my doppelganger who wrote that! Seriously though give yourself some credit you have 55k people who have checked out your channel, me included ^^ if nothing else that is kinda impressive! Live twins are hard to fight against imo and having some prior experience to MD through DL absolutely helps in terms of a base line what to expect mechanically. Gladiator Beasts is what I've taken up to plat until I got bored. Made 4 other decks now.
I really liked resident evil 6 especially with how you have to pay close attention to the stories of our large group of protagonist and see how they all line up together and finish with shocking plot twist and secret revealed
I love RE6 aswell and was waiting for this video as i found the game... confusing as i haven't found all the emblems yet, only got into this game in the last year or so 😅 Thank you and keep up the great work 😀
This is one of my favorite games (I've been introduced to RE completely backwards so that probably doesn't help) but I am so happy you're also doing a video on this. Even after completing the four campaigns I still wasn't sure what was in what order so it's wonderful to see you doing a video on it 💜
this was my first resident evil game which made every single RE that came before and after this game seem like utter complete fkin trash by comparison.
I just love RE so it’s hard not to appreciate each game for what it is. RE6 is a huge book full of chapters that expand the stories for some of the best video game characters ever conceived, and some new ones too.
Honestly, dispite the narrative, I can say that the movement and combat systems were so smooth and stylish. The quickshots, dodge, and slides really made you feel like an action hero
I've played, all resident evil titles, just because I fell in love with the OG resident evil series re1,2,3. But growing up playing these games I've noticed they've gotten progressively linear, during that re4, upto revelation, no survival element, the fact that you've got to be on your toes, because you're bullets are running out, you don't have health anymore. All in all, re6, well its a great couch game, and I really like the character of Helena, the moment I saw her appearing I was like yup, she could make it to the main stream. EDIT: Harry please do control, whenever you can.
PIERS NIVANS was such a great addition to the game. The way he kept Chris in check and protected him at all costs is a great teammate and friend. I was so pissed he was killed off. Like Capcom wasted no time with him. It’s unfair. Piers would have made a great addition to the Hound Wolf Squad.
While 6 was heavily criticized, I think the direction it took was necessary to move the story forward even more. Leon's chapter was actually very reminiscent of the early games. And actually surviving with other civilians? awesome touch
The only thing it has in common with the early games is enemies that look somewhat like regular zombies and an urban setting. Gameplay-wise it literally has NOTHING in common with any of the earlier (1-3, even 4) installments.
@@Noki_Kelevra Yup. And imo, it actually plays the worst because it tries to constantly evoke the older games but the gameplay mechanics are clearly geared towards the shootouts in the other campaigns, and imo his plays sluggish as hell.
i actually reaaaaaally enjoyed re6. yeah its not like jump scare horror but ive always find re games more like action featuring zombies and gross monsters so re6 really hadnt felt so out of norm from the rest.
unpopular opinion, but I actually liked re6. I understand the game play deviated from their Roots however they're saving grace was the zombie and infection plots that I liked so much still a good game nevertheless
Really love the combat and the amount of freedom you get in this game. Because of this game, i couldn't bear the clunkiness of older titles, even re5 felt pretty clunky compared to 6. The remakes' combat weren't as light and free as 6 but it was so much better compared to older titles, and they felt just right. Being able to dodge when you wanted in re3 remake felt good too. Surprisingly, i liked revelations 1 despite the movement controls being a bit clunky
Resi 6 had really deep combat, with counters and dodge mechanics is was awesome. I don’t know if would say the combat was “better” than older titles, as the titles were made to be slower and more restricted, adding to the brilliance of the older games. However, 6 did have different combat, way deeper, way cooler looking. But a lot of resi fans don’t care to be flashy they care for the survival horror. That being said, resi 6 is still a game to this day that I will redownload and play from time to time, pvp was incredible, learning every counter hit felt like an achievement. This game breathed fresh air into the resi series and albeit a unpopular opinion, I fucking loved it. I would love to see this combat system expanded upon in a resident evil game some day, because I’ve never felt more badass in a game than resi 6. And Leon’s fighting a style is begging for a 6 2.0 Tl/dr - resi 6 is an incredible game worthy of your time and you should definitely give it a shot. (Aimed at readers not LK as he’s obviously played it)
Re 6 remake needs to be a whole new idea. That's if they even try to remake this abomination. It's just a bad story and Jake is one of the worst characters in re history .
RE6 is a mess. Every story never feels like it got time to breathe from a storytelling or gameplay standpoint because development was spread so thin. Leon should not control like Jake. Ada should not control like Chris. It feels less like multiple intertwined stories & more like the same people in 4 different scenarios. Revelations 2 pulled off different characters in an interwined story so much better. Barry felt nothing like Claire. They didn't have the same scenarios. They had their own style.
I love every single Resident Evil game from the mainline to the spin offs. There's clearly a split between the old school fans (which I fall into) and he new school fans (which I also fall into). I'd say the split happened from Resident Evil 0-3 and 4 was the breaking point to go on to 5 + 6 before it seems CAPCOM started listening to feedback more with Resident Evil 7, VILLage, and other titles. As of 2022 it seems CAPCOM is at their peak firing on all cylinders with no only Resident Evil but many other franchises like Monster Hunter with Rise and World; Rise first launching on Switch being one of the most impressive Switch exclusive titles (at the time) now announced for other consoles along with the Sunbreak DLC later. Anyways I think CAPCOM has diversified their portfolio enough and had a high enough output of games, sometimes outsourcing smaller games while focusing on big titles in-house, to be able to satisfy a wide swathe of gamers which is what I think they were aiming for with 6. I think that most of the criticism for 6 comes from it not only being this total action game flying in the face of the series roots and what hardcore fans wanted (see critic reviews vs angry fan reviews). For people who grew up with 4 as their first game I think 6 wasn't as bad as those who started with the OG game. That isn't to say that 6 has some glaring flaws but overall if it is taken on it's own and removed from the canon of the Resident Evil history and main series I think it's a GREAT game. Definitely not perfect but a game worth playing. I think the sentiment of RE6 has slowly begun to swing more towards the positive side since it's release as people aren't as embedded in the hate of it when it first launched and are maybe more willing to give it a shot. Still many veterans and other gamers don't like it or have mixed feelings but I think in years it will begin to get a cult classic status. It's still too new but I imagine by RE9 it will have a more positive view while still being viewed as the worst in the series (hopefully).
I've found that RE6 is by far the easiest to introduce to casual friends, for co-op especially. RE5 is my favorite, but constantly having to hear "these controls suck" (tank controls are great, btw) over and over can get exceptionally annoying.
you wanna know the #2 biggest reason no one liked this game? because Capcom somehow found a way to make Leon Kennedy not even slightly attractive in RE6. I wouldn't have thought it possible for Leon's character design to be ugly as sin, but Capcom always has a way of proving me wrong.
This game is great for people that care about lore and story heavy games. If you only care about horror then you hated this game and loved 7. But if you were one of the people that wondered what other characters were doing during events of other games this was cool. It showed what multiple characters were doing during a period of about a year or so and it was all in one game instead of two or three. It was great to see multiple characters instead of one because we hadn't seen some characters in quite a while. And overall it is fun as hell to play with a friend. No it wasn't horror and the gameplay wasn't typical of a RE game but I enjoyed seeing characters like Sherry who we assumed Capcom forgot about. And I think the one thing that would've made this more fun is if every storyline played completely different. Have Leon's be completely horror, Chris' be action since he's mostly fighting with a military, have Sherry's be more puzzle heavy, and have Ada's be as it is. That's what it needed imo because the different campaigns were too similar in tone and play style. I also feel this game should've traded Pierce for Jill since we hadn't seen her in so long. And since the last time we see her she was saved after being brainwashed for two years and then we fast-forward to today and her story has been left alone since then. How can they leave a main character's story just up in the air after something so big like that?
While 5 and 6 veered too hard into action movie territory, I highly recommend the two Revelations games. They're still a bit heavy on the action, but they felt a lot more like the old formula.
RE6 had the best combat, having a melee button was a good choice that I wish the kept in the remake of RE4. (they're trained agents, why is throwing hands & kicks not a option -_-)
Spoilers. Who ever reads this you have been warned. I don't understand the hate this game gets honestly it was super fun to play n I enjoyed it. My only issues were Ada having a clone felt so dumb or how the clone came about. Also how do people still follow Chris for Christ sake lol 🤣 like by now he would have a nickname like solo cobra or something since none of his squad ever comes back lmao 🤣 like how please tell me how would they even want him around yet alone let him led them. I also Ada Wong clones motivities so one dimensional. It would have been nice if it was even just revealed as her sister or something with backstory being Ada abandoned her and choose to help Simmons. Awesome video as always man love the effort.
Crazy how a decade later here I am watching a video about Re6 because I honestly enjoyed this game. It was a massive game. Maybe too big. Either way I enjoyed this whole video. I love Resident Evil lore.
What irritates me about fans shitting on re6 is how come they act like they didn’t see a game like this coming? They had no problem praising re4 and giving goods reviews to re5 all but calling it derivative of re4 and both of those games were action horror, just comes to show that if the formula worked before, why not try it again and again?
... Because you can overdo it? Its reception was so bad capcom itself pulled the breaks hard, so even they understood they fucked up. The weird people at this point are the "fans" who wanted to play some other generic action TPS just because it had RE characters in it. Notice how now, all those things like Re:Sistance and Re:Verse and Umbrella Corps completely flounder because for some reason capcom still thinks resident evil fans want stupid TPS or battle royales or whatever instead of good games. And notice how Village and RE4R can balance the action and horror well, like how 4 used to do and even 5 kinda did.
Can we appreciate that Simmons literally modded his real life GF into Ada Wong? Also, this game contains Leon's worst experience as a driver... He didn't crash a truck no that's for amateurs... he crashed a freaking plane.
I love this game. The gameplay system is solid. Just took a bit getting used to it…having come from resi 5’s gameplay. I loved the story too. Yes, it’s super cheese but it’s resi. It’s always been cheese. The few genuine horror moments is just icing on the cake. The fans are always gonna bitch. I’ve played all the mainline series and resi 6 is underrated. Best part of 6 was Ada. She’s my all time favourite resi character. I want a whole ada game. Was bummed out when the concept art for resi 8 village showee ada was originally gonna have some part in it but was scrapped. I hope they do a separate ways dlc for resi 4 remake. Plus i’m a sucker for different points of view of the same story and resi 6 delivers in that. Most all mainline games have that different side of the story depending on what character you choose and Resi 6 went guns out on it. Chef’s kiss 😮💨.
Hmm i liked res 6. I didn't think the lack of horror was a problem as you were playing as experts in the B.O.W world, the protagonists have gone through various hurdles/dangers already, nothing should faze them
This game was fun but the story was all over the place. I event platinumed it back in the day but men it's been hard to replay it. Also I've quite grasp the whole story until this video hahaha, thank you so much. Subscribing, the amount of work you put here shows so much
Crazy always hearing this game was a flop cause my bestfriend talks about it like it was a full stack ham and turkey sandwhich that could feed the needy.
Resident evil 5 was the worst RE game I've played the movement was horrible and shooting was too like no i don't have time to stop there be vulnerable and shoot wtf
Fun fact or not so fun depending on if you like re6 it's Canon to the movie stories as the new re movie death island shows a clip for Leon of him shooting the zombiefied president
This was the first RE game that I played, and I enjoyed it. I wasn't really into horror back then, and I did eventually play the other more horror focused RE games, which are undeniably better that this game objectively speaking.
I will never understand why people hated this game for being too fun. Yeah it wasn't really horror focused but it makes sense since Leon,Chris and Ada have been through crap like this multiple times, even sherry and jake had the training to take on what was coming but they weren't doing so great as the others. Even though it wasn't scary, and didn't really make you feel a sense of dread, it had horror elements. I really don't get why this game is hated on as much as it is. I personally Love it
maybe you'd understand if you didn't say strawmanning nonsense like "too fun". It's the only RE that playing through it once burns me out because it's straight up not fun for me to play. The Michael Bay-esque action nonsense completely kills the pacing because you never rest, which is important. You fight way too many bosses multiple times for zero reason, and having to fight the same fight just with another character is tedious. Also, it's resident evil, not calladooty, why the hell am I fighting a tank and a chopper and whatnot instead of... B.O.W.s? RE6 thought more was better and completely overdid it.

The gameplay was fun but it didn't feel like Resident Evil. It felt like a spin-off or a spiritual successor.
I love RE6. ❤
I really love this game
Not you calling Ada out.🤣🤣Look, the woman likes him okay. Leon could have worse people on his back.
This series’ lore always took itself just one click too seriously. Like, yeah, it knows it’s silly sometimes (e.g. RE4), but particularly in the animated movies and stage musicals it’s clear that they WANT their cast of characters to have a genuine dramatic complexity that they’ve never earned. It’s like the cast of GI Joe trying to do The Cherry Orchard; like, either lighten up a bit or actually, fully commit to it - you can’t have rending intrapersonal trauma AND eat gibble boulder-punching sandwiches, too.
I was actually quite happy that there was so much content. Especially for a single player game, loads of gameplay in this instalment
yes
Too bad the gameplay is god-awful. The levels that are about as linear as a hamster's anus, the poorly explained -if somewhat fun - combat mechanics, the pacing that exclusively consists of 'clear corridor, kick in door', honestly one of the single worst HUD/UIs I've ever seen in a videogame.
I was honestly trying to come at it without any prejudice but it's just really bad.

Me and my wife’s younger brother played chris and piers campaign… We bonded the hell out of the campaign and became very emotional when piers made the sacrifice. It was cheesy in a few places but there arent many couch coop action games better than this….
The '' piers moment '' is like the second saddest thing in the franchise, BSAA lost a real hero that day, it is even more sad that they now work with what was left of umbrella after Racoon city
Resident Evil 5 and 6, while lacking in the horror element, did help my wife who isn't into horror games dive into the franchise. She played 5, 6 and Revelations 2. Thanks for the in-depth analysis as always.
Tssssss lucky ba$tard.! That was one of my dreams...
Unpopular opinion. I loved this game. I came late to the series starting with resident evil 5 and thought that both games were phenomenal games.
SAME
It seemed to get a better reception over time. This video really illustrates a major flaw in RE6. "Hey, remember Sherry Birkini?! Hey, remember Ingrid? Here's some puzzles! Oh, and here's some monsters to shoot! Having fun yet?"
They were trying to please everyone and ended up with a disjointed and uneven game.
@@chucklebutt4470 I can agree with that. While I loved the game I would definitely love a game that is just as long, but focuses on one specific group instead of having three campaigns. That could really flush out the lore and add some depth to the characters you were playing. As it stands now when you got to the end of the game and Piers dies it wasn't really all that impactful, especially considering the fact that basically every other person that gets assigned to Chris's team gets killed off, Shiva and Jill not withstanding.
Yea, same here.
It’s got some incredible and in depth combat that was really overlooked because people were to focused on comparing to older titles, the more you play resi 6 the more you realise just how amazing the dodging and rolling mechanics are
I like to take games as they are... Resident Evil want's really horror games for me since my first one was RE4... 6 was the best for me, a large game with campaigns putting the pieces together to form a complex, yet interesting story. Also, every story has a different tone/theme: Leon's is more horror with less ammo and darker, Chris' is shoot them up (like RE5), Sherry's have you been hunted by an enemy you can't defeat (like Nemesis in previous games) and Ada's solves the mystery of her other self...
This!!!!!
Honestly Helena and Leon’s campaign was the best. If they made it the main story and scrapped the other ones it would’ve been well received.
imagine a whole game on campus grounds in the style of RE1:O
i would have preferred if they don't give us like ten transformations to simmons, just one or two
their campaign was the pilot, but not the best
Personally I found Jake and Sherry's campaign story to be my favorite.
Though, I do think playing the other 2 campaigns helped since their story is a bit more in the background.
I loved their campaign until the end, I felt like Simmons was such a ridiculous concept, way more ridiculous than we've already seen in RE4 and RE5 with Giant robots and eel parasites. I also didn't like the oversexualization of every female character, Helena's sister is literally naked and has insane jiggle physics and poses sexually mid boss fight, Sherry is naked and then scantily clad in Jake's campaign, Carla is shown fully nude exiting her chrysalis which that one is understandable but the camera angles were iffy. I have a huge issue with Sherry Birkin's unlockable costume because it's borderline pedophilic, it's her clothes from RE2 but they barely fit and look like a "slutty student" halloween costume.
Hey Harry, I know the game has been out for a long time, and it’s not really a horror title, but I’d personally love it if you covered Control. I find the background lore incredibly deep and interesting (although it can get very confusing, considering how much intel and collectibles there actually are), characters like Doctor Darling are very charming (Darling is one of my favorite video game characters I’ve seen in a long time) and, considering that you’ve covered Alan Wake already, I feel like it’d fit pretty well in your channel
Agreed.
Love that game
Control is the best. And there are plenty of horror elements in the game I think. Very lovecraftian.
The game was such a masterpiece~ A deep dive into the lore would be most welcomed~
@@nathangreen4539 I’m not proud to admit I spent way more playtime completely terrified, or at the very least heavily unsettled, than I originally expected. Plus, the whole experience is basically “SCP: the game” without actual SCPs, which is a huge plus to me
Always had a soft spot for this game, felt like the natural progression of the world of resident evil. Constant BOW terror attacks slowly grinding down both society and the Player characters.
Not too long ago, within the year most likely, my fiance and I binged through every campaign, and for that experience this one will remain one of my favorites.
unpopular opinion: Ingrid hunnigan really impressed me in 6 her evolution from 4 was definitely impressive
I can't help but finding funny that all happen because Simmoms is an Ada's Only Fans top tier subscriber, and Ada doesn't call him by name
Because Simons is all of us man
Yeah, I think I’m going to have to watch this one a couple of times!
Even with Harry’s impressive talent for figuring out, sorting out and explaining these games, with this one there’s just so much… well, everything really. Still, another great video all the same! I’ll enjoy rewatching it several times trying to keep track of what’s going on!
I personally love this game, not a great RE title, but overall a great action game. And playing 7 different views, pretty cool. No, I dig this game, but that's just me.
When the whole point of the series is to show that people are selling viruses on the black market for war, of course we will have a game more focused on the actual war. These companies are not going to keep throwing viruses in random houses lol, they want super soldiers to fight. Eventually, even if "off-screen" there will be some sort of war where BOWs are being used as soldiers.
I have played RE way back from PS1, and I myself loved this game and how each campaign would cross over the other, especially Ada's. I was glad I played her campaign last because the impact is much higher seeing she was doing her own thing in a more "behind-the-scene" kind of way all the while looking out for the others.
Not to mention her campaign was the hardest in terms of being on her own literally. Felt rewarding on completing hers too
Btw i like some of the Master duel stuff you have on your channel. What's your main favorite deck?
@@eddysegafan6655 wow I never realized people actually watch my uploads. sorry for the late reply. I have never really played YGO before, just learned from playing DL and MD. As such, I try to learn all the decks available in game so I don't really have a favorite deck yet. But so far Live Twins is what I use a lot.
@@dravenryoma08 Haha no no that was my doppelganger who wrote that!
Seriously though give yourself some credit you have 55k people who have checked out your channel, me included ^^ if nothing else that is kinda impressive!
Live twins are hard to fight against imo and having some prior experience to MD through DL absolutely helps in terms of a base line what to expect mechanically.
Gladiator Beasts is what I've taken up to plat until I got bored. Made 4 other decks now.
telling us the complicated and confusing story of RE6 in a clearer way is one hell of a feat
Its not really complicated. You just hate Re 6.
@@jackjax7921 not so. i found its gameplay good and agreable between others. it's just that one of its main flaws was its hardly understandable story
I really liked resident evil 6 especially with how you have to pay close attention to the stories of our large group of protagonist and see how they all line up together and finish with shocking plot twist and secret revealed
7:12 did Leon just RKO a zombie
Yeah bro just RKOed a zombie like he does not care 😂
I love RE6 aswell and was waiting for this video as i found the game... confusing as i haven't found all the emblems yet, only got into this game in the last year or so 😅
Thank you and keep up the great work 😀
i'm like for it's time it's very good
I absolutely loved re6! The stories, the gameplay, the combat! But I didn't know just how deep the story was! Thank you for clearing that up!
Chris and Piers campaign is the best for me
I can't resist that camaraderie, bromanship, Tango & Cash kinda style lol
This is one of my favorite games (I've been introduced to RE completely backwards so that probably doesn't help) but I am so happy you're also doing a video on this. Even after completing the four campaigns I still wasn't sure what was in what order so it's wonderful to see you doing a video on it 💜
this was my first resident evil game which made every single RE that came before and after this game seem like utter complete fkin trash by comparison.
I just love RE so it’s hard not to appreciate each game for what it is. RE6 is a huge book full of chapters that expand the stories for some of the best video game characters ever conceived, and some new ones too.
Honestly, dispite the narrative, I can say that the movement and combat systems were so smooth and stylish. The quickshots, dodge, and slides really made you feel like an action hero
After seeing the story in a very organized way makes me love this game more than I’d imagine. Really enriches the story and the stakes
All of this because of Mother Miranda
I've played, all resident evil titles, just because I fell in love with the OG resident evil series re1,2,3. But growing up playing these games I've noticed they've gotten progressively linear, during that re4, upto revelation, no survival element, the fact that you've got to be on your toes, because you're bullets are running out, you don't have health anymore. All in all, re6, well its a great couch game, and I really like the character of Helena, the moment I saw her appearing I was like yup, she could make it to the main stream. EDIT: Harry please do control, whenever you can.
PIERS NIVANS was such a great addition to the game. The way he kept Chris in check and protected him at all costs is a great teammate and friend. I was so pissed he was killed off. Like Capcom wasted no time with him. It’s unfair. Piers would have made a great addition to the Hound Wolf Squad.
I think Claire mentions being his friend in Revelations
@@lightdarksoul2097 .....so?
@@SeventhheavenDKwhen she called him during revelations 2 it’s was basically the start of RE6
While 6 was heavily criticized, I think the direction it took was necessary to move the story forward even more. Leon's chapter was actually very reminiscent of the early games. And actually surviving with other civilians? awesome touch
The only thing it has in common with the early games is enemies that look somewhat like regular zombies and an urban setting. Gameplay-wise it literally has NOTHING in common with any of the earlier (1-3, even 4) installments.
@@Noki_Kelevra Yup. And imo, it actually plays the worst because it tries to constantly evoke the older games but the gameplay mechanics are clearly geared towards the shootouts in the other campaigns, and imo his plays sluggish as hell.
i actually reaaaaaally enjoyed re6. yeah its not like jump scare horror but ive always find re games more like action featuring zombies and gross monsters so re6 really hadnt felt so out of norm from the rest.
I had fun with RE6. You have to take it for what it is: a fun shooter developed for you and your friends ^^
say what you want but I LOVED RE6.
story was so good and simmons C-virus transformations were pretty badass. ( besides that big ass fly form. ugh. )
unpopular opinion, but I actually liked re6. I understand the game play deviated from their Roots however they're saving grace was the zombie and infection plots that I liked so much still a good game nevertheless
RE6 wasnt that bad, it was just the culmination of the "action trilogy" and it was fine.
Leon, Chris, and Jake should've had an awesome team-up
No, no, no not the ninth game! That should be RE10! A big event for the big one zero!
Really love the combat and the amount of freedom you get in this game. Because of this game, i couldn't bear the clunkiness of older titles, even re5 felt pretty clunky compared to 6. The remakes' combat weren't as light and free as 6 but it was so much better compared to older titles, and they felt just right. Being able to dodge when you wanted in re3 remake felt good too. Surprisingly, i liked revelations 1 despite the movement controls being a bit clunky
Resi 6 had really deep combat, with counters and dodge mechanics is was awesome. I don’t know if would say the combat was “better” than older titles, as the titles were made to be slower and more restricted, adding to the brilliance of the older games.
However, 6 did have different combat, way deeper, way cooler looking. But a lot of resi fans don’t care to be flashy they care for the survival horror.
That being said, resi 6 is still a game to this day that I will redownload and play from time to time, pvp was incredible, learning every counter hit felt like an achievement. This game breathed fresh air into the resi series and albeit a unpopular opinion, I fucking loved it.
I would love to see this combat system expanded upon in a resident evil game some day, because I’ve never felt more badass in a game than resi 6. And Leon’s fighting a style is begging for a 6 2.0
Tl/dr - resi 6 is an incredible game worthy of your time and you should definitely give it a shot. (Aimed at readers not LK as he’s obviously played it)
Re 6 remake needs to be a whole new idea. That's if they even try to remake this abomination. It's just a bad story and Jake is one of the worst characters in re history .
Protip: do not get into a vehicle with Leon Kennedy!
I know people hated this game but I loved it. I played it at least 200 hours and several more playing mercenaries with friends.
Same! Played on the ps3, ps4 and now the switch! Just wish I had more ppl to play mercenaries with
@@eddysegafan6655 I’m always down with that re6 is one of my favorite
sameee
people didnt hate the game. critics did and casuals cheered them and left a bitter aftertaste...
i’m obsessed with lore and order 😩💕
Resident evil 6 is what made me love the whole RE series 🤙
Just found your channel a few weeks ago and I've loved going through and watching all of your lore and order videos, keep up the good work!!!😁😄
Chris's campaign was the best. Good action and good story arc.
RE6 is a mess.
Every story never feels like it got time to breathe from a storytelling or gameplay standpoint because development was spread so thin. Leon should not control like Jake. Ada should not control like Chris. It feels less like multiple intertwined stories & more like the same people in 4 different scenarios.
Revelations 2 pulled off different characters in an interwined story so much better. Barry felt nothing like Claire. They didn't have the same scenarios. They had their own style.
Man that story was dogshit lol, it reads like an awful fanfiction. Thank God for RE 7, otherwise the franchise would have been buried
I love every single Resident Evil game from the mainline to the spin offs. There's clearly a split between the old school fans (which I fall into) and he new school fans (which I also fall into). I'd say the split happened from Resident Evil 0-3 and 4 was the breaking point to go on to 5 + 6 before it seems CAPCOM started listening to feedback more with Resident Evil 7, VILLage, and other titles. As of 2022 it seems CAPCOM is at their peak firing on all cylinders with no only Resident Evil but many other franchises like Monster Hunter with Rise and World; Rise first launching on Switch being one of the most impressive Switch exclusive titles (at the time) now announced for other consoles along with the Sunbreak DLC later. Anyways I think CAPCOM has diversified their portfolio enough and had a high enough output of games, sometimes outsourcing smaller games while focusing on big titles in-house, to be able to satisfy a wide swathe of gamers which is what I think they were aiming for with 6. I think that most of the criticism for 6 comes from it not only being this total action game flying in the face of the series roots and what hardcore fans wanted (see critic reviews vs angry fan reviews). For people who grew up with 4 as their first game I think 6 wasn't as bad as those who started with the OG game. That isn't to say that 6 has some glaring flaws but overall if it is taken on it's own and removed from the canon of the Resident Evil history and main series I think it's a GREAT game. Definitely not perfect but a game worth playing. I think the sentiment of RE6 has slowly begun to swing more towards the positive side since it's release as people aren't as embedded in the hate of it when it first launched and are maybe more willing to give it a shot. Still many veterans and other gamers don't like it or have mixed feelings but I think in years it will begin to get a cult classic status. It's still too new but I imagine by RE9 it will have a more positive view while still being viewed as the worst in the series (hopefully).
I've found that RE6 is by far the easiest to introduce to casual friends, for co-op especially.
RE5 is my favorite, but constantly having to hear "these controls suck" (tank controls are great, btw) over and over can get exceptionally annoying.
12:10.......Hmmmm, I NEVER knew that, but that's seriously intriguing.....About Marco; This guy does his research, seriously 🧠🧠🧠
you wanna know the #2 biggest reason no one liked this game? because Capcom somehow found a way to make Leon Kennedy not even slightly attractive in RE6. I wouldn't have thought it possible for Leon's character design to be ugly as sin, but Capcom always has a way of proving me wrong.
This game is great for people that care about lore and story heavy games. If you only care about horror then you hated this game and loved 7. But if you were one of the people that wondered what other characters were doing during events of other games this was cool. It showed what multiple characters were doing during a period of about a year or so and it was all in one game instead of two or three. It was great to see multiple characters instead of one because we hadn't seen some characters in quite a while. And overall it is fun as hell to play with a friend. No it wasn't horror and the gameplay wasn't typical of a RE game but I enjoyed seeing characters like Sherry who we assumed Capcom forgot about. And I think the one thing that would've made this more fun is if every storyline played completely different. Have Leon's be completely horror, Chris' be action since he's mostly fighting with a military, have Sherry's be more puzzle heavy, and have Ada's be as it is. That's what it needed imo because the different campaigns were too similar in tone and play style. I also feel this game should've traded Pierce for Jill since we hadn't seen her in so long. And since the last time we see her she was saved after being brainwashed for two years and then we fast-forward to today and her story has been left alone since then. How can they leave a main character's story just up in the air after something so big like that?
While 5 and 6 veered too hard into action movie territory, I highly recommend the two Revelations games. They're still a bit heavy on the action, but they felt a lot more like the old formula.
RE6 had the best combat, having a melee button was a good choice that I wish the kept in the remake of RE4. (they're trained agents, why is throwing hands & kicks not a option -_-)
What happened in 2009? --- Chris punched a boulder
😜
Spoilers.
Who ever reads this you have been warned.
I don't understand the hate this game gets honestly it was super fun to play n I enjoyed it.
My only issues were Ada having a clone felt so dumb or how the clone came about.
Also how do people still follow Chris for Christ sake lol 🤣 like by now he would have a nickname like solo cobra or something since none of his squad ever comes back lmao 🤣 like how please tell me how would they even want him around yet alone let him led them.
I also Ada Wong clones motivities so one dimensional. It would have been nice if it was even just revealed as her sister or something with backstory being Ada abandoned her and choose to help Simmons.
Awesome video as always man love the effort.
Crazy how a decade later here I am watching a video about Re6 because I honestly enjoyed this game. It was a massive game. Maybe too big. Either way I enjoyed this whole video. I love Resident Evil lore.
What irritates me about fans shitting on re6 is how come they act like they didn’t see a game like this coming? They had no problem praising re4 and giving goods reviews to re5 all but calling it derivative of re4 and both of those games were action horror, just comes to show that if the formula worked before, why not try it again and again?
... Because you can overdo it? Its reception was so bad capcom itself pulled the breaks hard, so even they understood they fucked up. The weird people at this point are the "fans" who wanted to play some other generic action TPS just because it had RE characters in it.
Notice how now, all those things like Re:Sistance and Re:Verse and Umbrella Corps completely flounder because for some reason capcom still thinks resident evil fans want stupid TPS or battle royales or whatever instead of good games. And notice how Village and RE4R can balance the action and horror well, like how 4 used to do and even 5 kinda did.
I didn't know that Carla was pretending to be Simmons when calling Ada o.o
Can we appreciate that Simmons literally modded his real life GF into Ada Wong?
Also, this game contains Leon's worst experience as a driver...
He didn't crash a truck no that's for amateurs... he crashed a freaking plane.
They need to just let this man Chris rest he needs it after all he has been through.
I love this game. The gameplay system is solid. Just took a bit getting used to it…having come from resi 5’s gameplay. I loved the story too. Yes, it’s super cheese but it’s resi. It’s always been cheese. The few genuine horror moments is just icing on the cake. The fans are always gonna bitch. I’ve played all the mainline series and resi 6 is underrated. Best part of 6 was Ada. She’s my all time favourite resi character. I want a whole ada game. Was bummed out when the concept art for resi 8 village showee ada was originally gonna have some part in it but was scrapped. I hope they do a separate ways dlc for resi 4 remake. Plus i’m a sucker for different points of view of the same story and resi 6 delivers in that. Most all mainline games have that different side of the story depending on what character you choose and Resi 6 went guns out on it. Chef’s kiss 😮💨.
Hmm i liked res 6. I didn't think the lack of horror was a problem as you were playing as experts in the B.O.W world, the protagonists have gone through various hurdles/dangers already, nothing should faze them
This game was fun but the story was all over the place. I event platinumed it back in the day but men it's been hard to replay it. Also I've quite grasp the whole story until this video hahaha, thank you so much. Subscribing, the amount of work you put here shows so much
ah yes, my biggest fear as an average interned user: being DDOS'd. Let me buy that vpn real quick
Crazy always hearing this game was a flop cause my bestfriend talks about it like it was a full stack ham and turkey sandwhich that could feed the needy.
Resident evil 5 was the worst RE game I've played the movement was horrible and shooting was too like no i don't have time to stop there be vulnerable and shoot wtf
I enjoyed the gameplay more then the story.. I barley remember what it was about.
Fun fact or not so fun depending on if you like re6 it's Canon to the movie stories as the new re movie death island shows a clip for Leon of him shooting the zombiefied president
As expected that manga is an event before Chris lost his memories...
This was the first RE game that I played, and I enjoyed it. I wasn't really into horror back then, and I did eventually play the other more horror focused RE games, which are undeniably better that this game objectively speaking.
This story is pretty amazing lmao. It all makes sense and connects, but it is a bit repetitive at points ...
God this has got to be one of the shittiest stories I’ve ever seen in a video game. Particularly the whole thing with the ada projects.
Re6 got experimental with action sensibility and the feedback wasn't good.
In the middle of playing this with my buddy. We started with Chris story
Chris is action oriented, Jakes is more of an expansion to lore, leon is like RE4 but with suplex, and Ada's the background work.
I will never understand why people hated this game for being too fun. Yeah it wasn't really horror focused but it makes sense since Leon,Chris and Ada have been through crap like this multiple times, even sherry and jake had the training to take on what was coming but they weren't doing so great as the others. Even though it wasn't scary, and didn't really make you feel a sense of dread, it had horror elements. I really don't get why this game is hated on as much as it is. I personally Love it
maybe you'd understand if you didn't say strawmanning nonsense like "too fun".
It's the only RE that playing through it once burns me out because it's straight up not fun for me to play. The Michael Bay-esque action nonsense completely kills the pacing because you never rest, which is important. You fight way too many bosses multiple times for zero reason, and having to fight the same fight just with another character is tedious. Also, it's resident evil, not calladooty, why the hell am I fighting a tank and a chopper and whatnot instead of... B.O.W.s?
RE6 thought more was better and completely overdid it.
