Resident Evil Chit-Chat

Uh, Wekser had nothing to do with him. I don't think Wesker even knew about him. Based on the trailers, Jake finds out about Wesker being his father sometime in RE6.

[King Cobra]

Albert never had much to do with his son, Jake Muller.

Wesker was never involved in Jake's life. That's kind of what I meant.

[Erik]

All I hope is that Wesker is finally gone.   

[King Cobra]

I would hate to see Wesker come back AGAIN. He has to die at some point.

[Erik]

^ Especially considering the way RE5 ended.

[King Cobra]

It would just be pathetic to see him return after that. I'm getting tired of seeing him.

[Erik]

That's why I liked RE4; new villains that had nothing to do with Umbrella and Wesker had a very small part.  Also I thought that Krauser was awesome.

If only Resident Evil 4 was even remotely similar to the beta...I would've loved every bit of it. But since 4, the series lost its flavor to me.

[King Cobra]

5 was just 4 on a bigger scale. 6 will be the last chance of this series.

What was the beta like?  I personally enjoyed 4.  I loved the design of the village and the castle, Krauser (as I mentioned), the monks chanting, and the Regenerators scared the shit out of me.  Ashley was annoying and I agree that there was too much action, not enough horror.  But I still liked it.  5 was where the series lost me.

[Chrissy]

The beta turned into Devil May Cry. The original 4 was more eerie and supernatural.

Resident Evil 3.5 (All Footage)

There was a black 'mist' and I think it was 'alive' and Leon was infected.

[Erik]

^ Thanks!   

[Chrissy]

Yer welcome.

4 and 5 were leaning really far into the action direction. Now some people liked that. A lot complained though. I was upset. Horror, which has always played a significant role in this series, was missing from both 4 and 5. Horror is what makes these games great.

I see nothing wrong with action being introduced to this series, but horror needs to stay. Supposedly this issue will be fixed in 6. I'm giving the series a last chance, 6 being that chance. I'm getting the game.

I've always been loyal to this series. I've played and loved this series for years. Since I was a kid. It's obvious that 4 and 5 were the turning point of the series. For some it was a good one and some a bad one. Me it was bad.

As a loyal fan, I feel partially obligated to go on, but if it keeps going in the same direction, there needs to be a point where things end. I will give it one more chance. 6 better satisfy me.

I still like 4 but after watching the beta footage I have to agree with how much better it could have been.  What are the monkeys running Capcom thinking?  Why did they cut the hook man?
