It was built to keep something inside, not other people out, anon.

People on this board just want a reason to hate something because it's new and not what they played when they were a kid. CV had Wesker doing matrix shit too and 0 had the fucking final fantasy twink leech man.

I know the point is "Wow so cool" but this comes off as retarded
Why yes, I'll fall over in front of the armed men, they'd never shoot a woman if she was retarded

Just finished the game and… what the actual fuck? Umbrella Corps is canon now?
That whole sequence with the Zeno, Elite Guards, and HUNK popping in to PvP you feels completely out of nowhere unless you suffered through UC (which was a shitty game anyway).
Zeno is literally just Wesker. He drops lines about the rumors of his death being "exaggerated" in UC, and he remembers stuff only Wesker would know. I’m still trying to figure out how he's even alive at this point... maybe some regeneration nonsense, Mold leftovers, or whatever new bio‑handwave they're cooking up.
My biggest issue with the game is Spencer. He just doesn’t line up with the character we already knew in RE5.

RE5R will have spencer go
"Ough, wesker, i regret all of this... we should fix this... this was a mistake i regret it all oh dear me..."
And wesker will go
"Fix 'this'? Godhood is within my grasp... HIYAAAH *karatae chops spencers neck to death* Old fool... i shall ascend"
And that's it, that's what will happen to make it make sense. Nothing too different, just remove spencers lust for godhood and have him die as such. simple.

I've had people try to argue with me that Zeno is a clone of Spencer which is something that is not suggested in any way in Requiem's narrative. Zeno cannot be a clone of Wesker since he has the T-Virus/Ouroboros scars on him, but he simultaneously cannot be Wesker himself because he was vaporized in an erupting volcano. They want to cash in on the retcons they'll do in RE5R except they haven't actually made that game yet. I feel like I'm taking crazy pills seeing people give Requiem 9s and 10s.

The segment for Leon is also paced poorly, especially if you're going to go to back for the first BSAA crate. Please walk through the giant empty streets to the handful of small arenas that we have designated as enemy encounters. Like why even do this pseudo-open-world shit if it's just going to be paced poorly and pad out the game? It has backtracking in the most literal sense where there aren't threats or anything on the return path, you just have to walk through it because Leon needs to get his steps in.

>over a dozen fights one after another
All against generic zombies, most of which just involve them standing in rooms or stumbling round. Maybe two of them are remotely interesting like the Willis Building. The encounter design in RC is fucking shit.

NTA, but I was 16 when RE6 came out and immediately noticed that the logo looked like a giraffe getting the ol' sloppy toppy. My buddy who I played through the entire game in coop with also came to the same realization entirely independently.

This was extremely retarded. I was only like 12 when CV came out and even back then I could tell it was incredibly cheesy, fake and out-of-character. It's not even physically possible for her to get below the gun before the gun hits the ground, after waiting that long

Resident Evil has jumped the shark years ago.

They used to at least try and make it campy fun. Requiem plays all of it completely straight faced, which RE6 also did, but unlike 6 Requiem isn't batshit insane enough that you can just treat it as campy action schlock. There are gradients to levels of story and writing quality and Requiem is firmly on the lower end of that.

The entire franchise has been nothing but a schlock fest.
RE8 has you fightin fucking Magneto and zombie werewolves and then retcons the entire series from sci fi to fantasy thanks to the eldrich abomination underground ruins.
The OG RE2 was structured like a Hollywood Action movie.
Everyone that pretends that RE was an atmospheric slow burn series is a lying faggot.
So no RE9 having dumb action sequences is not the problem of that game. The shitty retcons and memberberries is.

>>734134238
I know that RE is traditionally campy schlock. I adore RE5 and that game is the campiest the series has even been. The dumb action sequences like the bike ride are dumb because they're just badly from a gameplay perspective, but that's immaterial compared to the overall narrative trying to play some of the laziest shittiest writing completely straight. That Spencer humanization home video made my heart explode in my chest because it's so patently ridiculous. Like the story is just so bad it doesn't even pass a basic smell test. Even by RE standards it's abysmal dogshit
