Resident Evil 5

playing solo sucks ass because of the coop AI
it's a massive fucking flaw

I enjoyed it more than RE4 to be honest

Better than Leon's wacky spanish adventure filled with every action movie cliche ever and barely being tied to the plot

It's pretty fucking great when played co-op, but as someone else mentioned, solo sucks so much balls
Also the new inventory system is fucked compared to 4

>>384088943
it's boring as shit, i played through the entire game with my friend and i don't remember anything that happened.

>>384089170
Yes, that's one thing RE5 is far superior in compared to RE4: the story. It at least closed up Wesker's arc, who was the most important villain in the series up until that point (I'm not a big fan of his voice in the game though, it sounds goofy).

>>384088943
>why is this game so hated?
shitty ai partner, some people wont have someone to play it with

>It's as good if not better than Resident Evil 4.
re4 wins because leon is in it

this game is great though desu. Gonna replay it later today with a friend

>>384089083
>>384089286
I'd prefer it to have been just solo throughout the entire game, but the addition of Sheva (one of my favorite characters in the series) made up for it imo. There wouldn't have been a problem had they just made the AI partner's health infinite like in RE6.

>>384089680
>re4 wins because leon is in it

Chris is a much better character. I can never take Leon seriously in RE4. The quips were far too frequent.

My major gripe was killing the butcher that gives you weapons at the start, he could have been the merchant of 5 and been the explanation for how weapons upgraded. It's a fun adventure game and 4 was more horror but Revelations was the best horror post 4.

I wish Excella would come back in some way through flashback or something because she was pure sex in what few scenes she was in. Wesker is a massive faggot for mutating her and just being a sperg in that one cutscene.

We just had this thread

No it's not it's a cheap imitation of RE4 with no personality and co-op gameplay

>>384089796
It was originally going to just be solo but the sjws of that time bitched and moaned so they threw in Sheva because she was supposed to just be a Delta Squad member that appeared a couple times like Josh "I AM A LEGEND" Stone. I never had any problems with her ai because none of my friends liked RE so I was more often alone or playing with random fucks online.

>>384088943
I found it to be more like an arcade game, something in quick bursts or could be run in a few hours. RE4 was a 'sit-down for a while and enjoy' kind of game

>>384088943
I think this game got a lot more hate back when it was new, but I think people look back fondly at this game now, or there's a new generation of players that accept its flaws. It's not as good as 4, it can't be, but there's certain little things this game does that I like. It's like they leaned into the "welp RE is just action now, fuck it" and made a really great co-op shooter. The weapon variety is great, although I miss that weapons don't have some kind of final ability when fully upgraded like they did in RE4 The mercenaries is the best in the series, and the DLC chapters weren't all that bad. I had a lot more fun trying to clear this one on the hardest difficulty than 4, but I think 4 is just the overall better crafted game.

>>384088943
exactly. Its just as good, theres just even less horror to it. its one of my top favorite RE games. IMO it has way more replayability than 4 does

>>384088943
i love RE5, but 4 is better

>>384093767
no but black people were a thing, and cried racism because it was a white guy attacking black people. its alsowhy only half the enemies are black and the other are mexican and white. and the blonde girl being dragged back into the building was originally dragged by 2 black guys. not anymore. they even cried that sheva wasnt black enough

>>384095925
Capcom did NOT pander. The Town Majini were not all black at first. They included those Mexican and white looking Majini from the very beginning.

If they did pander, they would have not made the Tribal Majini and Soldier Majini enemies 100% black.

I dont know. Me and my friends loved to death re4. Re5 leaved us pretty indifferent.

It's probably the atmosphere per se, and the fact that the one they created for re4 is superbe. Then characters? Ripped chris is definetely less likable than no way fag leon. Even sheva is not match to ada. Then the coop-op mechanic. It wasnt badly implemented, on the countrary, but it wasnt really needed.

Then the mobs. Noone likes niggers, even if you have to kill them. And the story. actually i dont remeber the story at all

>>384090160
Literally the only people who get upset about this are friendless frog posters

>>384094954
>It's like they leaned into the "welp RE is just action now, fuck it" and made a really great co-op shooter

are you confusing RE5 with Re6? Re5 was bearable with co-op, but best co-op is easily 6. Plus RE5 still tried to be a little spooky and had clunky controls/inventory management, RE6 really streamlined it for action

>>384096880
>Then the mobs. Noone likes niggers, even if you have to kill them.

You should expect to see Africans if the game is, you know, set in Africa.

>>384088943
i loved it, too bad capcom fucked it up somehow and now I can't play it on win7

>>384097015
6 has terrible controls, terrible split screen with forced ASPEKT RAIDOU and black boxes. And it removed the mappable d pad weapons, which is way more elegant inventory management.

You are an absolute nigger. It also ruined Mercenaries.

>>384088943
Because fags are either blinded by nostalgia or have been indoctrinated to thing 4 is the best game ever made, when it isn't even close to the best Resident Evil game
Also, 4fags for some reason think the girls i the game are great despite being arguably the worst girls next to Sheva and Helana in RE history

>>384088943
This is my favorite RE game, having only played 4-6. 4 I feel like you had to be there to see how groundbreaking it was, like SMW or sonic adventure. If you didnt play it when it was THE hot thing its just an average game. Nothing seriously wrong with it but its not some masterpiece. 5 is perfect though

>>384097131
Resident evil getting set in Africa of all places will always be the dumbest shit

>>384097657
5 is good but the two DLC missions are better than the main game and that made me angry.

Also no HUNK in Mercenaries - fuck you.

>>384097303
>6 has terrible controls
RE4 and 5 controls but you can move while aiming and it has more useful mechanics
>terrible split screen
It's not terrible if you have a TV that is above 30"
>removed the mappable dpad weapons
Because people bitched about 5's inventory management so Capcom streamlined the whole thing
>ruined mercenaries
It's not as good as 5's, but it's probably the second best iteration of it

>>384097762
Having Rebecca and Barry in the Mercenaries Reunion made up for it.

>>384088943
>Why is this game so hated?

Many people see it as the "beginning of the end" game for the Resident Evil series. Coming off the high of RE4, this is the game that jumped the shark.

Not only does this game mark the decline in quality, but it also marks the transition from "survival horror" to "action." The co-op mechanic effectively gives you a "buddy" to go through the game with. This relieves any and all tension that the game might have, as a basic tenant of the horror genre is that everything is more scary when you're all alone. Also, as others have said, the forced co-op mechanic makes playing with another person a necessity as the AI is awful. This severely limits subsequent play-throughs, or revisiting the game several years later as you'll also have to find someone else to play with you.

Stop it with the 'muh sjw boogeyman', that shit didn't happen till at least 2012. Sheva was put in because the first trailer was of Chris, the epitome of perfect body, killing a bunch of starved murderous niggers in a shantytown. Of course people would call that racist

>>384098443
No, you have to play the remake of the first game. It's amazing. You might need to watch a walkthrough though to finish it (at least, I had to).

The plot was idiotic. Wesker was always an edgelord but he's not stupid. Why would his entire plan of COMPLETE GLOBAL SATURATION ever be what he went with? I mean assuming that only 5% of the global population had the genes necessary to turn them into super people like wesker that's still billions of people turning into horrible Uroboros monsters that grow fucking huge after consuming stuff. I mean Excella only had a pretty small pile of bodies to work with and she turned into a monster to huge they needed a satellite laser to kill her. What the fuck was even his plan, it absolutely wouldn't have worked the way he wanted it to.

Honestly, the menus in the earlier games are probably the best in the series, given how straightforward they are.

>>384088943
It feels like a poor man's RE4 in many aspects. For example the merchant. He's a character in RE4, like there's an actual "explanation" as to how Leon gets his guns. But in RE5 they removed the merchant and simply added a "shop" at the menu, it feels lazy.

Also it has RE4 controls in a time where games like Dead Space had already moved the genre forward

>>384098664
I can't remember but it wasn't even Wesker's plan, it was Spencer's plan but Wesker took it after he found out he was a test tube baby selected to help Spencer infect the world with a virus so he could become God.

>>384098664
You have it wrong, you only turned into a monster if the Uroboros rejected you. You turn into a superhuman like Wesker if it accepts your body.

>>384098786
The Merchant was the worst fucking thing to happen to the series, why even defend it
Also, 5's controls worked perfectly well and there were 0 issues to be had with them.

>>384098534
Except for the fact that it was made by Asians who probably just wanted to tell a cool zombie story set in Africa and probably didn't factor in the section of the American public who try and actively find racism/sexism/homophobia/etc in media in order to further their political beliefs.

>>384098835
But that wouldn't have worked either, and Wesker thought Spencer was a fag loser after he found out anyway, why would he use Spencer's stupid plan?
>>384098901
It's all based on genes. Wesker had them and out of everyone in Spencer's little super baby program I think only him and a tiny handful of others survived. Why turn the majority of the planet into pulsing high-unkillable plague tentacles when even IF someone got to be superhuman instead they would just get killed by the Uroboros monsters anyway?

When will people understand that "B-but its good i-if you play it with a f-friend!!!" is NEVER a valid argument?

Here's a newsflash: 99% of co-op games are fun with friends, and not because of the game being good but simply because normal people enjoy doing things together. So the game can be shit and it would still very likely be fun in Co-op.

Same shit happens with RE6, you got a bunch of faggots saying "UHHH WELL IT'S ACTUALLY AN AMAZING GAME, YOU JUST HAVE TO PLAY IT IN CO-OP!" when the game is irredeemable shit

>>384093767
>>384095925

I think it's really fucking funny and a proof that SJWs don't even play the games they whine about, because only the village has a "diverse" population, the next chapter after that has you fighting giant pitch black ooga boogas who chuck spears at you and live in mudhuts.

Bringing up pol, really. That didnt take long

>>384099497
It killed the big bad offscreen, introduced QTEs, the game was no longer even semi-rooted in horror, it was just pure action, started the trend of RE games having meme villains (Salazard, RE5 Wesker) rather than actual villains (Chief Irons, Nicholai, Alfred and Alexia), dumbed down the story aspect where everything is told to you and files are basically mandatory and aren't pieces of paper just laying around.
Also added enemies dropping ammo, and the Merchant, which can effectively break the challenge of the game if you play your cards right.
>>384099687

Can't kill what's already dead, but I appreciate RE6 for the gameplay, which actually was a step up and was pretty fun. RE6 also made me appreciate Chris as a character and remember Sherry as more than just 'That girl from RE2 that molested Claire in a doujinshi'

>>384098990

It's not that merchant was some savior character or anything, it just felt nice having a justification for the upgrades and shop.

>>384100162
>being unable to move and shoot in a tps for that time was not fine
Honestly, I didn't mind it. The controls were as tight as ever, and we got the ability to move and shoot in RE6, which wasn't really needed and made the game way too easy.
>dead space

>>384096793
I had a chuckle thinking if Capcom pandered by removing black people entirely from the game and making it set in a completely white africa where the only problem was the virus.

>>384100076

A fuckload of things you mentioned really applied to the previous REs

>Meme villains
What exactly are you talking about? Goofy villains? RE had them before. And reminder "RE5 Wesker" was actually introduced in Code Veronica, not RE4. Wesker isn't even shown doing anything asides sitting in RE4.

The story in RE games had ALWAYS been silly and dumbed down, and RE4 did have optional files giving backstory, like how the plagas were found underground.

>Re6 has fun gameplay

I no longer consider your opinion to be valuable. RE6 is extremely mediocre in every aspect and it's not even fun as a full action game. Only a kid or a person with shit taste would think otherwise

>RE6 made me see Chris as a good character

Chris will always be a bad character because the writers insist in deleting all of his development from his previous appearance when he gets a new one

>>384100368
Did you really just say Dead Space and Gears of War were not good games?

I could slightly understand GoW (I'd still see you as an ignorant) but Dead Space? really?

>RE5 Wesker was actually introduced in Code Veronica
But, that Wesker had actual understandable goals, which was to retrieve shit for people he worked for. In 5, he wants to release a big bad virus for... reasons, something about God and shit.
>not RE4
I was making a general comparison to the originals and RE4 and everything past that, as RE4 only had one villain of note, unless you actually think Salazar was worth remembering.
>the story in RE games has always been silly in dumbed down
Due to their limitations in terms of voice actors and composition. Before 4, and a while after, they took themselves seriously in the story, as shown with REmake, when they were given a chance to remake the silliest game in the series outside of Survivor.
>re4 did have optional files
They were left in the open though, blatant, and asking you to pick them up. In the originals, you could actually miss files which expanded on the story and actually explained shit that may not have made sense without the context given in the files.
>re6 is extremely mediocre in every aspect and it's not even fun as a full action game
But, the gameplay is good. It expanded on what RE4 and RE5 had without detracting from it. The only real bad parts are the tripping in one or two sections and the responsiveness of some enemies.
>RE6 made me see Chris as a good character
I never said that. I said RE6 made me appreciate Chris as a character. I wouldn't call him good, he's no James Sunderland or Big Boss, but the games present him better than any other character in the series aside from Albert Wesker.
>insist in deleting all of his development from his previous appearance when he gets a new one
This is why I said appreciate rather than good. In RECVX and 5, he had no development. 6 was the first game to give him development, but VII killed that because the writer only watched the movies.

>>384101598
>>384100883
Sorry, meant to say Saddler, not Salazar in the >not RE4 section

Yea whatever. And Co-op was a BIG fucking mistake for RE.

Co-op is the cancer that was killing RE, not action. RE5 is RE4 bogged down by forced co-op mechanics, which also negatively impacted the pacing and devolved the game into "kill everything, then pass arbitrary two-character gate, then repeat ad nauseam for the next 10 hours". Co-op oriented level design is always boring as fuck and RE5 did nothing to mitigate that.

No, they really didn't, at least not after CV. RE4 was full of cliches. RE5 was a bit back on track but you said it yourself the god delusion thing was kind of weak. After RE5 they went full meme with shit like webm related and solar satellites and "INFECTIONS ALL OVER THE WORLD LMAO", RE6 being one of the best examples, where the game basically has no beginning, a shitty ending, a fuckload of plotholes and a huge deus ex machina (NEO UMBRELLA which is literally just a name with ONE known affiliate, the shit doesn't even have a fucking logo)

Stop it, its not good, it's terrible, I've been saying it in every RE6 thread. Shit like the laser sight resetting after every shot, the plethora of QTEs, the clunky movement and cover system, the derivative enemies, the damage system, the inventory and weapon system, it's all shit.

>Chris
He had great development in 5, getting over his past traumas and nanny complex and actually beating the man he hated the most and who posed a global threat, its the other games where they just delete and turn him into a blank slate of perpetual suffering. I haven't played RE7 yet

RE6 was decently sound mechanically but the level design was nigh invariably absolute dogshit, and what was good about RE6's combat rarely if ever harmonized with the enemy types on display. Decent tools to play with but the fodder wasn't any fun to use them on. And that's of course ignoring the bad parts of RE6's mechanical design like the QTEs and the clunky menu navigation. But things like full sprints snapping into cover position, stamina recovery through laying supine, quick shots flowing into melee finishers? All an awful fit for Resident Evil but they aren't bad ideas.

The SJW bullshit as we know it now more or less got spearheaded by Tropes Vs. Women. Might've been bubbling for a bit longer but that's where it really got a voice in the video game industry. So yeah, about 5 years now.

>>384089934
Why were you trying to take either seriously? At least one seems like a parody while the other one seems like a joke

>>384103421
The implementation of these mechanics was fucking terrible, good ideas are worthless if they're not implemented properly. Every time someone defends RE6 they end up backing themselves into a corner and either saying "It's a fun co-op game.." or "it had some good ideas..." because deep down they know the game is shit

>>384103624

>The implementation of these mechanics was fucking terrible, good ideas are worthless if they're not implemented properly.

I agree, and that's why I lament RE6 more than I despise it. There clearly was some good intentions that went into it but fuck if any of it came together meaningfully.

>>384103024
>how was cv wesker unintentional
Well, that wasn't, but he was also outshined by the actual villains, Alfred and Alexia.
>he wanted to infect the entire world to dominate them
So generic, nothing like a sexual predator that also happens to be into taxidermy running the police force.
>no, they really didn't
After that, you only talk about the story after RE4. Before RE4, they did take the story seriously, even the suggested incest between a tranny into femdom and a woman that turns into a plant monster.
>re6
>shitty ending
The ending was only shitty for Leon. Chris' story was pretty solid, as was Jake's, and while Ada's story was absolute trash, the secret ending with Jake channeling DMC4 Vergil for a bit was fun.
>laser sight resetting after every shot
Laser sight can be disabled and the game is better without it
>plethora of QTEs
Taken out in updates and completely gone in any rereleases, outside of shit like when the enemy grabs you or the climbing ones.
>clunky movement and cover system
The movement is actually pretty fluid when you get used to it, and if you're a big enough pussy to use the cover system, you deserve to have the experience ruined.
>derivative enemies
I liked the C-Virus enemies, the zombies were boring though
>damage system
You get hit you take damage.
>the inventory and weapon system
Real time and fastest in the series for inventory management
>he had great development in 5
Literally all that happened was he went on an adventure to stop the big bad and found out his partner wasn't actually dead. There was no development.
In 6, he has this complex where it's his fault if any of his men die, he cares too much about his soldiers, and it kills him, and after the first chapter, he channels MGSV by making it all about revenge until Piers finally talks some sense into him. Chris has a character arc in 6 that made sense, and nothing was erased. Things were added offscreen.

>>384089286

This, I had the best of times playing it co-op before I had all the weapons, barely surviving with my friend and scavenging shit, panicking during boss encounters, also doing tag team melee attacks.

6 tried to be more action based but they totally fucked it up with the awful cutscene parts, 5 had them sure, but 6 made them way more annoying and long plus every pathway felt like a sidequest

>>384089286

>Also the new inventory system is fucked compared to 4

RE5's inventory system is a great fit for a Resident Evil game but not for whatever RE5 was trying to be. Hell, RE7's inventory system is basically just RE5's but expanded upon.

Sperg the fuck down son, 6 was hot garbage and have never known anyone who likes it enough to suffer a run through it, had to pass it solo/with randoms online just because I wanted to know the storyline

>>384103546
I remember there being journalists criticizing Eva's character back when MGS3 was released. Their voice has always been there, its only recently game devs seem to have actually started to care about it.

Downright retarded

>RE6 has Chris turn into an asshole because PTSD of having his team die
>Gets his new team die because he's an asshole
>Remembers the good times and his purpose after he fucks again
Yeah... fuck you

It's not as long or epic as RE4 so it was a letdown
One of the best things about RE4 it kept going and going, It's the perfect satisfying length

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4ymL5LXhHLY

>>384104190
No its not. RE4 has a terribly boring gameplay loop and is boring in general about 30% in since the story and characters are awful

>>384104085
>downright retarded
If a game has good gameplay, that's kinda important. Sure, I'm more of a lorefag when it comes to RE, but I liked the gameplay, which is something that has to be said.
>fuck you
Better than the 0 development he got in every other game.
>>384104190
RE4 was bloated. Everything past the first third wasn't executed properly, and everything from the island felt like filler

>>384103716

>"RE6 endings weren't shitty!"
>Jake rides into the sunset with some motorcycle while Sherry writes on her laptop
>Chris goes back to war

I'm not even skipping anything, that's literally all that happens in these endings.

>I haven't touched that shit for years but I remember you could just disable the CROSSHAIR, not the laser sight.

>QTEs taken out
Glad to see they realized they were shit.

>Clunky movement
Characters collide with walls, invisible boundaries around objects, bounce around shit, collide with each other

>You're bad for using the cover
Some enemies like the LMG J'avos required you to take cover if there were more than 1 of them.

>I liked the C-virus enemies
which account to like 10% of the enemies, I really hope you're talking about the ones that pop from the cocoons and not the j'avos btw, j'avos are the shittiest enemies in video games

>you get hit you take damage
No not as simply as that, Leon for example gets knocked down in literally 1 SHOT. Characters being knocked down upon losing 1 block of HP was also dumb and the way the healing items only recover 1 block of hp (which you could lose in one scratch, literally) just made it better to save all the heals for bosses/long checkpoints and rely on your partner healing you/dying and restarting with full health.
Also Jake's 2nd HUD and Ada's hud were trash and you could barely tell how full a cube was. Also hated how all the huds display blips instead of numerical ammo counters.

>real time and fastest in the series
RE5 was also real time and it was way faster, you don't have to jump through 3 different prompts to get to healing .There's also no quick selection which makes it factually slower than RE5. Also no way to actually MANAGE the inventory since dropping stuff would make it disappear.
"So you got no more space to pick up this AR ammo box? well you do have enough space to pick up this huge grenade launcher!"

>That rant about Chris
asnwer in next post.

>>384088943
It's fun as fuck either alone o4 co-op. Hell, it only takes about 4-5 hrs with a friend with everything maxed. Just short n sweet

>>384103716
>>384104445

Nigga you're literally oversimplifying all that happens in RE5 while "expanding" into the RE6 shit. Let me do the same shit for RE5, because it's not as simple as "HE GOES ON AN ADVENTURE!"

After CV, Chris realizes Wesker is a serious threat, he starts training his body to human-peak (possibly even using roids, no kidding) ONLY to be able to AT LEAST slightly match Wesker's physical strength (and he knows he'll never do it). He becomes cocky and goes to that shit mansion with Jill, since he's cocky, Jill is forced to save him and because of this Jill "dies", Chris is scarred from this and goes into severe depression/PTSD because he genuinely blames himself for Jill's death, he doesn't want to work with a partner or even socialize with anyone anymore because he feels everyone around him dies, so he's focused 100% on the mission: Killing Wesker.

So the guy gets forced to work with Sheva, he doesn't likes it at first. He's super protective and doesn't let her do shit because he thinks she's going to die too. Then they find Jill, he feels even worse because now Jill didn't just die, she was actually tortured and brainwashed and this is all Chris' fault. They eventually stop it, he feels redeemed and trusts Sheva as a capable partner. Decides he wont lose anyone again and goes full Rambo to save her from dying, now with his inner demons gone, he's capable of facing Wesker and beating him, attaining some peace of mind.

NOW LETS GO BACK TO RE6

Yeah uh all that strength of character is uhhh deleted and Chris now suffers from PTSD from losing people again, so enjoy repeating the same ordeal

>>384104895
RE6 Chris is what he shouldve been in 5.

>>384104946
Not the same guy but
>Has PTSD because his team dies
>Does things that sacrifice people, out of character for Chris just because he is angry
>Suddenly and out of nowhere, due bad writing, changes his personality again just when his new team is dead
>They kill his only friend just because against an underwhelming enemy
>He did jackshit at all in the entire campaign, even letting a city get blasted
If "development" means going two steps back and one forward then no one wants that, and not only he barely appears in the game, his entire campaign felt like a sidequest not really impacting people and just passing by

>i'm not even skipping anything
Those were the epilogues. The endings were the bits after all the gameplay in chapter 5
>clunky movement
None of what you said was an issue for me
>some enemies like the LMG J'avos
You could run behind any building or piece of rubble, or slide to get out of their aim. The cover system isn't required.
>c-virus enemies
I like the cocoon ones and the ones that mutate after shooting off a limb
>re5 was also real time and it was way faster
It also only let you carry 9 items, including armor if you chose to buy it.
>you don't have to jump through 3 different prompts to get to healing
In RE6, you just open up the menu, move to a herb and mash X till you they're all in pill form. In RE5, you have to open the menu, move to a herb, if you want to combine, you have to go down to the third option and manually select another herb, if you want to use, you have to go down 1 or you might select equip, which opens up 2 other prompts and makes you carry the herb rather than your weapon. 6 streamlined it and made it easier to do in a rush, 5's was slower despite still retaining the gameplay and enemy intensity of 4.
>>384104895
>that entire rant
If that's what you think happened in RE6, fine. I figured Chris didn't like Sheva because he had worked with Jill for so long, and saw her as a cheap replacement, I didn't see any PTSD scarring there.
In RE6, he actually blames himself for his team's deaths and this is told to us in the game, and he does overcome it, but """Ada""" kills his entire crew with the exception of Piers, making him go on a warpath for revenge, and he does realize the mistakes he made and try's to fix them near the end, but he also loses his last team member and his successor, as Piers sacrifices himself to help save Chris and the world.
It's not much, but it made me appreciate Chris as more than just 'The Brawn' to the RE gang.
Also, I probably won't make anymore replies as I need to sleep for work

I refunded it after the sale last Wednesday.
I used the refunded money for this weeks new Rust Workshop Skins.
I'll have more hours with the skins than the entire game.

>>384105321

All the campaigns in RE6 felt like sidequests. The plot is barely there in all of them. I was talking about it with a friend recently and we both came to the conclusion that the problem with RE6 is that it feels more like a shooting gallery than a linear plot-driven game. Like in the previous REs there was always a clear objective (or not so clear) and the enemies were there to keep you from attaining that, but in RE6 the objective is always to just kill ALL the enemies you see. It's terrible at giving you other objectives.

>>384105459
>Endings
OK so Not-Nemesis dies from a shot to his "heart"
Giant fly dies being electrified
Giant squid dies from electric shock.

That's what happens in the endings after the fighting is done, there's really nothing more to it.

>cover thing
Hiding behind shit counts as cover, I'm not talking about strictly using the mechanical cover system of the game, which was terrible by TPS standards.

>Liking j'avos
Confirmed shit taste

>It also only lets you carry 9
It actually lets you carry 18 since you can trade items with your partner

>In RE6 you just mash X until it's a pill
And then you have to hit the pill button the amount of times you want to take a pill. In RE5 you could heal your partner, so it made sense to let you equip the herb rather than instanty use it, because you could equip it to move to a partner's location and heal him/her immediately. It's also not half as complicated as you make it sound, you're not really supposed to combine stuff in the heat of battle.

>No PTSD in RE5

Nigga when you're on the plane and Sheva is about to let go willingly you literally get a flashback of Jill falling down the window followed up by Chris shouting "NOOOOOOOO" and jumping to grab her

>>384100368
>gears and dead space are bad
You never even played them you faggot

Wasn't there an RE thread deleted a few hours ago?

>>384106854
Why was it deleted?
>mods deleting video game threads on /v/

>>384107052
Probably because Resident Evil threads are put up and archived every hour

>>384100076
>Can't kill what's already dead
RE wasn't dead at this point, but RE6 certainly killed what was left.
Horrible game even by casual standards.

Get some friends and actually have fun for once you whiny little fucks.

I like RE6 as a guilty pleasure. I find the mercs mode to be incredibly fun thanks to the combat, Jake was fun to play as but I can totally see why people despise the game

4 scared me more, but I had more fun playing 5

>>384088943
They ended up ditching alot of the horror elements due to the engine. They were originally planning to have the heat cause hallucinations and affect Chris's fatigue. You'd even have moments of blindness entering and exciting buildings due to eyes having to adjust.

Then the god awful partner AI.
