Yeah correction. The gap between Claire and Barry's portions of the plot is 6 months.

So discounting flashbacks, the games that take place over the longest time are 6 and Revelations 2 taking place over multiple months but with a large timeskip between them. After that Outbreak takes place over a week, 3 and 5 over three days, and the rest taking place under 24 hours (usually starts one evening and ends the following morning).

Basically for 6 one could argue the main plot actually happens in just a day, the flashbacks just builds up the conspiracy. It's R2 that actually makes the timeskip as a progression.

I can't really agree with that take as there are three chapters dedicated to Edonia over two days, Ada Chapter 1 takes place two days before Tall Oaks Outbreak, which takes place two days before the Lanshiang Outbreak which unfolded over four days.

Yeah TBH Resi 6 averts Extremely Short Timespan handily. Makes sense given the sheer scale of the events that take place.

I dunno, maybe because the lack of linear storytelling makes it fuzzy to me. It feels like Leon's chapter is the center focus and the rest are more like expansions of the whole narrative.

Even then Leon's campaign takes place over the course of a week in universe.

I thought it was three days at most?

I still find it funny that a Javo (sp?) managed to sneak up into the plane. Oh wow, this means RE has zombies in both air, land and sea. Just need zombies in space.

[up] The J'avo are the Ganado-esque mooks who got the C Virus from direct injection. Each post-chrysalis mutant does have a name, but I don't think they have their own category.

[up][up]Code Veronica already did that with the Tyrant that snuck on board a plane.

(Playing my 200th hour of Helldivers)

Why the hell wasn't Operation Raccoon City this good.

Or Lost Planet 2, even.

Seriously "Four STARS players get dropped into a effed up situation and try to extract. Now do it again." Feels like the perfect layup for a Resident Evil game but they keep missing the mark (ORC) or just over complicating it (Resistance) or just being whatever the hell Outbreak was (Outbreak) i just wanna have my position overrun by BO Ws as we hold out for thirty seconds before the chopper lands man.

... Maybe Helldivers 2 can get some USS armor sets as a part of a crossover.

You are not alone.

[up][up][up]The gas balloon Javo can turn people into zombies, it's what's caused the zombies in plane! situation.

[up][up]Huh, I thought there was only one plane scene in CV and it was during the failed escape.

Sort of? You have Claire and Steve trying to escape on a carrier plane and then fight the Tyrant who snuck aboard somehow.

Then you had a cutscene of Chris using a harrier(?) to fly to the Antarctic, and then the ending cutscene where the Redfields use that same jet to escape.

There's technically 3 plane moments in CV but only one is a playable segment.

Dead by daylight is getting some new Resident evil skins for their RE characters. Nothing special, but i noticed a cool thing about Wesker's

He's holding Krauser's knife!

Did the knife end up with Leon tho right? I wonder where he keeps it nowadays....there's a running theme of Leon keeping the knife of a fallen mentor

Think i'll go back and play it a bit TBH.

It was a fun little extra mode but the idea of making it a Live Service cow was laughable.

Center: Merchant, Barry and Kid Moira I guess? Sherry as a kid. Ashley. Ada. Jill. Who is the RPD chick, is that Leon? Mia and Rosemary as a baby, and an adult. Ethan blocked by the bottle. Chris and Claire. Zombies, the baby, El Salvador, Eveline.

Top layer: K Rauser, Marvin, Birkin, Wesker, worst mom ever, Mr. X, Luis, the Lady Dem-eh-tress-kuu, Nemmy, Carlos, Heisnberg... wait, shit Ada's RE 2 and RE 6 selves are here, so the one earlier was Rebecca. I think Brad is next to Ada.

I was looking for Barry and Sheva, but I guess they only included characters from the five games being celebrated here, which makes sense I suppose.

I hope Capcom will put out more official art featuring Ethan and come up with more and more creative ways to keep his face hidden.

Playing Resident Evil 0 on Hard was a mistake.
