Hey, long as I can make a zombie head explode like an overripe watermelon with a well-placed shotgun blast I'm happy.

It does go to show how devs can't do anything for any reason without someone finding some way to blame "TEH SJWS" though.

Who the hell plays a horror game for sexual titilation in the first place?

[looks guilty]

All I'm saying is I've always felt Resident Evil had the sexiest women in gaming.

Mind you, I've never upskirted a video game character either.

I MAY have lingered a bit much on the sexy costumes.

Don't judge me!

[up][up] They probably already did. The internet is dark and full of asshats.

[up] My point was more: There's no shortage of sexy stuff in video games or on the internet, period. So people complaining about one game not having the amount of sexy stuff they want comes across as delusional at best.

Oh they'll spin it as a cultural war or something. Or use the slippery slope argument. They've been in their little bubble of hatred for decades now.

I mean, don't get me wrong. I appreciate how nice some Resi ladies are to look at (And Leon. And Carlos.) but bitching that they are showing a bit less flesh or something is just... Sad.

Yeah, they're already trying to use Jill's new outfit and Tifa getting a bra in the FF 7 remake as "proof" that "the SJ Ws are getting to Japan too".

SJW has become as meaningless of a term as Mary Sue

I wasn't going to play devil's advocate in here but just because I like Fanservice more often than not and don't care for the haughty attitudes in here at the moment.

Jill's remake outfit is fine.

Could you do that before?

A quick Google search and - yes, you could in RE 1 Remake.

I love how these guys still whine about how "games aren't allowed to have sexy women anymore". Never mind that Dead or Alive still exists and Re 2's remake gave Ada a Hotter and Sexier re-design from her more sensible attire.

That's two video games that came out in the past year:

  • Dead or Alive released amid word that it was "growing up" and removing its sex appeal - turned out to be quite the opposite, but still.
  • Ada Wong quickly became a sexy Femme Fatale character long before RE 2 Remake came out.

And besides, all that bitching is pointless when they can easily make their own pervert mods. For fuck's sake, someone already made a shirtless Carlos mod!

Notice how games that objectify women never get "more clothes/feminism quality of life" mods? We write articles talking about how those games create overly sexualized characters and blame the creators, but nobody ever goes to the effort of making "proper mechanic Cindy Aurum" mods, or "Laura Matsuda wears actual clothes" mods.

Honestly, the whining about "MUH SEXY WOMEN" always baffled me - there are whole genres of video games catering to people's innate horniness.

Very few made with the same production values or engaging narratives.

Not every game needs to cater to that, furthermore it's incredibly easy to just find porn on the internet, if you're that desperate.

And here we go.

Who the hell plays a horror game for sexual titilation in the first place?

Way to kink-shame my FNAF fetish.

I still think Jill's new outfit looks painfully generic but if people really are saying that it's to appease the SJW then that just more proof that Anti-SJW are every bit as bad as the people they preach against.


Still waiting for one of them to use "cuck" and "NPC" unironically.

How could you possibly use "NPC" unironically when there's probably gonna be a bunch of NPC getting eaten zombies in a RE game?


[up] My point was more: There's no shortage of sexy stuff in video games or on the internet, period. So people complaining about one game not having the amount of sexy stuff they want comes across as delusional at best.

I must be the only guy on the planet who didn't think Jill's & Claire's original outfits were fanservice. I still think what they did Claire's classic attire in the Remake was stupid.

I still can't get over how "Mary Sue" lost all its criticism because of how a much glorified insult it is.

I will said mary sue and SJW does have a sense, is just pejorative and nobody like that.

And is more that people want porn and more than men expect fan service that is because...well is fan service.

After all jill no only must escape and beat nemesis, she must look good while do it.

Looking up female Nemesis on Google, and there doesn't seem to be any cutesy genderswaps. They're pretty much all for horror, and that's honestly fine by me.

Ethan Winters, the supposedly normal guy, barely reacts to his hand getting chopped.

The first scene of the Remake alone makes me think Jill starts with a few broken ribs because there is no way she gets unscathed from that first encounter

Finished RE3Remake last night.

I love how the trophies you get for every encounter with Nemesis get increasingly desperate.

1st Encounter: Nemesis Down
2nd: Nemesis Down?
3rd: Nemesis Down!?
4th and Final: Nemesis Down!!!

I want to talk about the final scene showing the city's destruction. Honestly, the remake version feels weak. It's a very quick moment of the missiles making impact and the city goes boom. There's also no news story in the background describing what happened. The original's ending shows several cuts of each landmark you visited in the game, which is kind of impactful since it's kinda saying "You were here. Your adventure took you here and now you can't go back. The scene lasted only seconds longer compared to the remake, but the different angles made the scene more powerful.

The somber song that plays during the news segment also made the scene a Tear Jerker since every single citizen has died in the blast and the background is a still shot of the mushroom cloud. The credits theme does make it as a rearrangement/remix in the remake, but it's slower paced and it just doesn't feel the same.

Sorry for the rant, but out of all the flaws the remake has, the ending feels the weakest out of everything else.

I'm really enjoying the R E3make so far, but I'm also one of those people who liked RE 5 and RE 6. So I'm not exactly a purist when it comes to this series.

I say this because I'm actually enjoying the more setpiece-heavy fashion in which the Nemesis is being used. It's ridiculous and I love it in a stupid, popcorny way.

That's not what people wanted from the Nemesis though and I appreciate that. However, it seems to me though that what people wanted from the Nemesis was already given to them by Mr X in the last game. I was kinda worried about this last year. "How are they going to up the ante with Nemesis when his whole shtick was done so extensively already?" What made Nemesis in the original so game-changing was the sheer scope of how often he appeared and the way he seemed to stalk you. The R E2make had that covered and then some, massively expanding on Mr X's role from the original to make him into an unstoppable terminator in his own right.

With that in mind, what Capcom decided to do with Nemesis almost seemed inevitable in some ways. It's textbook serial escalation. To make Nemesis stand out from the other invincible 12 foot tall stalker they created, they turned him into an anime villain. He can flash step, he can catch rockets out of the air, he can skid along the ground. He's ridiculous. But to keep this supercharged character from making the game impossibly hard, they relied on cutscenes and set pieces to show off his powers in a more controlled way.

It makes me wonder, if Mr X hadn't been so fleshed out in the R E2make, would Nemesis here feel more like X did in that game? Since there wouldn't be this same towering pressure to make something they've already done but on steroids.
