Question about the aftermath of Resident Evil 4

Maybe they were like the aliens in The Faculty. After the queen died, they all just left their hosts and the people, that were still alive and were able to live normally, went on with their lives and didn't remember anything that had happened to them during that time. Maybe it was the same with the Las Plagas.

I think it was stated at one point in RE4 that once a plaga is fully grown inside it's host there is no way of them to get seperated without it resulting in death of both.

Some plagas can leave the host (like the facehuggers in RE4 and Kipepeo in RE5) but the host is killed in the process and the plaga will die too if it doesn't find a new host.

This is true. I had forgotten about that. Once the Plaga had fully grown in the chest cavity it attached itself to the nervous system and eventually took over completely.

And it was stated in a report that I think Luis had made that the Plagas, after they had taken over their hosts completely, would find ways of moving to a new one by way of consumption. Like the report stated that if it was in fish, the fish would swim to the surface of the water to make sure they were devoured by birds so the bird would become its' next host. Kinda crazy when you really think about it.

Those are actually real viruses that Luis was talking about. He said that the plagas acts like real viruses. Ants infected with a virus would crawl to the top of grass blades to get devoured to infect whatever consumes it, just like fish swim on the surface of water to get consumed to infect birds, and from birds to humans.

Oh well at least I was close considering I haven't played RE4 in several months now. My memory isn't completely failing me but I do need to brush up on a few things.

Oh well, I wasn't trying to correct you. In my own way, I was agreeing with you, only that he was addressing real viruses, not the plagas... I think... wait I gotta play this game again.

That's pretty much what I had going through my head that I need to play it again and soon. And I didn't think you were trying to correct me or anything I grasped that you were agreeing with me in a way.

Ha, weird you mention The Faculty, as there was a Thing discussion going on recently, and I consider Faculty like the cool, modern Thing.

@Mercy, what viruses was Luis talking about?

I think the real question is if the Merchant survived.

He obviously was wearing a jetpack underneath all of those clothes and flew away.

You just put a rather hilarious image in my head.
