I like how you can drop stuff in RE0, and pick it back up, but I'd like to have both the option to do that, and an item box, if it isn't too much to ask for. It is.

I agree, although it wouldn't be so bad if they gave us 8 spaces instead of 6, or if they didn't make us carry the hook-shot everywhere.

Complaint: I completely despise any and every enemy capable of poisoning you. Spiders, Adders, Moths, etc. I hate them all.

I think they figured in how Billy and Rebecca together had 12.

It was a pain having to lug that hook shot around everywhere, like in the chappel.

How about the female zombies? At least they do that in Gaiden. Almost ran out of blue and purple herbs at one point.

You know, those are the only creatures that have ever poisoned me in RE. I've never gotten poisoned by a spider or an adder and I never even knew moths could do that.

Have you ever played Outbreak #2? One scenario has zombies, bees, and plants, all of which are poisonous. Just to make matters worse, there's an unkillable enemy ( not poisonous but really annoying when you're trying to find supplies ).

Shouldn't zombies be poisonous anyway? Get bit=turn into one? Whatever happened to that concept? It makes sense that way.

Hmm...I think I have a few complaints, but i'll just stick to one-Recurring bosses.

I am so sick of fighting the same boss and different forms of it. It's something like fighting Alexia, or Simmons, or William, or Mr.X from DSC >< Stop coming back!

I'm pretty sure it's just a Japanese thing. Zelda does it too. Fight Gannon like three times before he stays dead. Even the … not really dead, cause he comes back.

Agree. If I already killed you, I don't want to have to kill you five times again. It's annoying I do like it however when a a game makes the Player and the Character absolutely hate the main boss, then it turns out at the end after you've killed them they were really being controlled by someone else (a concept from the game I'm developing). I like it when Players can get emotionally tied to the game, so you can geniunely be "I f*cking hate that guy" or "Oh, yeah! I'm really going to kill you now!" It makes the game better when the Player has motives too.

I have but not for long. I haven't had a PS2 in ages so I haven't been exactly able to finish it.

In any case, even if you don't get poisoned in the Outbreak games you might start bleeding or at least get your infection rate higher.

Dang. Everyone is calling you out on the RE games Mass. First RE0, now File#2.

If I go to that CGF convention, I'm going to have to bring RE0.

I hate the way in the Outbreak games, if you open a locker and there isn't anything in it, it will immediately enter the locker and close the door. Hiding, MGS style. Which is cool, except for how inconvienantly annoying it is. We should have the option to press a button to enter, or maybe pressing a button will make it to where you don't enter, but it shouldn't do so every time.

My biggest complaints are in Resident evil 3.

the first is that stupid, weak knife you have. Now granted the knife in the previous games weren't that powerful either but because it's one of only two weapons Nicolai has in the mercenaries game you'd have to use it. It's probably because I'm such a terrible player but I can never get too far with Nicolai because I have to use the knife a lot. And the knife is so bloody weak. It takes about 8 - 10 strikes just to kill a zombie. Honestly, a banana would be a better weapon. I will never know how people on YouTube are able to complete the game with Nicolai and rescue all the hostages.

And secondly is the dodge system. Now this is probably my own fault but I can never master it properly. I can never really dodge an enemy and in the few occasions that I can it's usually just because of luck. And again when I see people online playing RE 3 they are able to dodge every time without fail. I wonder how they do it.

Don't make it hard on yourself. You don't have to use knives everytime. Knives are, ofcourse hard to use, and it takes a lot of time. We have other weapons there. Besides using Nicholai wasn't that bad. If you're having a bad time using him in Mercenaries why don't you try using Mikhail he's pretty much good too.

RE3 is not the only of original three games that forces you to use the knife in a minigame, though. Tofu's only weapon in RE2 was a knife and in Deadly Silence there's a minigame called "Master of Knifing" which had you warding off enemies in a first person perspective. Granted, you could time your knife hits in DS and get critical hits for more damage.

Thank you for the kind words but truth be told I am a pretty rubbish player. But I still honestly have no idea how people can complete mercenaries with Nicolai and his rubbish knife. Well I suppose it's just practice makes perfect. And it's still very entertaining watching players online complete Nicolai's run.

Oh I do. I absolutely love Mikhail. He's actually one of my favourite RE characters. And I love playing as him in mercenaries I can actually complete with him but I do find it fun with all the badass weapons he has.

That's true. There was also RE CVX where you could play as Wesker and he was only armed with a combat knife. But at least he's knife was slightly powerful and there was a strategy you could use to take down zombies unlike Nicola's useless rusted antique knife ( sorry going on a rant )

Quote :

I've seen that character but I don't think my Resident evil 2 game has him. Mine does have a minigame with HUNK but nothing with Tofu.

I only played that game once years ago and I can barely remember it. Isn't that the one with the character Bruce (sorry I forget his second name) where you're on-board a ship ?

No you're thinking of Dead Aim. Deadly Silence is the Nintendo DS version of RE1.

Wesker's death in 5 kinda irked me. *Hey, let's not use 1 rocket launcher, but two!*

Another thing about Dead Aim is that it is TOO DAMN SHORT. My first time ever playing it without any assistance at all only took me an hour and like ten minutes. Then my second time took me about 40 minutes. Wow really?

I like Dead Aim. I cannot believe it was almost 10 years ago that I was playing it in my room, around June of 2003. That was the best time to be a survival horror fan, unlike now.

All the things I hate from the games listen below:

RE1/Remake - I don't know what the real ending is. Does barry die or is still alive?
RE2 - I hate claire's weapons: Grenade Launcher, Bowgun, even her pistol!
RE3 - Not much characters at all, just the four main ones, and two DIE!
RECV - Claire isn't as hot as she was in RE2.
RE4 - Ashley, It takes place in a village.
RE5 - Sheva......Desperate Escape (So Fucking Difficullt)
RE6 - Ada's Campaign and Helena!

The canon ending is the one where all four of them survive.

I'd say Jill's ending with Barry still alive is the most relevant one, since Barry is in one of RE3's endings, but I don't think Rebecca is ever mentioned again.
