The files/notes in RE4

Up until RE4 the various notes you find scattered around make sense of why they are there. In RE4 when you find notes they are just in odd places and don't make sense story-wise. Like you'll find notes that were written for the Ganados to read (stop the US agent and whatnot). Whose taking the time to place these notes around? Plus they are in English which makes no sense.

agree
actually I don`t read these notes and waste time unless I got stuck in some points.

I know right, it's also really funny how they are written too. It's like they were writing the notes for a 12 year old.

I'm going to assume Leon understands Spanish.

Yeah, imagine that.

Leon's Boss: Leon, we're going to send you, and only you to investigate an isolated village in a rural part of Spain. You've also got a Handgun with a single additional clip of bullets.

Leon: OK.

Didn't he also have the shotgun on easier difficulty levels?

What? Who plays Resident Evil without reading the notes?!

Double poster!

Yeah, Leon starts out with a Shotgun and a Handgun on Easy, but on Normal and, of course, Professional, he only has a Handgun.

Yeah, the internet can be an unpleasant place. Lag and Rule 34 and Slenderman and stuff.

It's not like they knew what he was in for.

What? And now my last post disappeared? Something is not right...

Well, in reality, he'd still have a couple extra mags on him, regardless of whether they knew what he was up against or not.

holy shit there is a lotof re4 hate recently.

the files being in english is a flaw in the logic, and actually made me laugh.

otherwise most are just as appropriately placed as in any other re game.

announcements for them to know about leon, despite tne language inconsistencies, how does that not make perfect sense?

Also, what about the first memo? That had close-ups of Mr. Kennedy. Didn't he notice them?!

Obviously not. I mean, camera's now a days don't need you to be right up in their grill for a close up.

In one of the photos, he's looking directly at the camera.

okay? what are you trying to prove, maybe they were far away, maybe they were in sneaky place in the architecture of the airport or train station or whatever means of transportation he used. maybe it was in a sneaky place on a person to where it couldnt be seen by him.

maybe leon was using those for his modeling debut but they were hijacked by the Illuminados, who cares....

I always LOVED the files in RE untill RE4 and 5. They didn't make much sense and were just boring to read in my opinion. They felt forced.

Huh? There were files in RE5?

Yes, but they weren't interesting in my opinion.

To me that was one of the few redeeming qualities about RE5. It was interesting to hear about Spencer and the origins of the Progenitor virus (even though the "Stairway to the Sun" flower thing was pretty stupid).

How can you just deny this guy's opinion?

I felt the same way too.
