Chris vs Jake?

How would you like to see the rivalry evolve between Chris Redfield and Jake in the future?


If Jake grows his hair longer and starts wearing sunglasses it will be like Chris vs Wesker all over again. 


Or should I say elderly Chris vs a young Wesker  

It would be hilariously stupid if they just made him a new Wesker.

I would actually prefer to see Chris helping Jake be a good guy.

I would like some hostility, after all Chris killed his father... But I agree on with you, I want them to end up fighting on the same side. I think the ending of RE 6 (obvious SPOILER), where Jake lowered his asking price showed that he was on the way to become a "good guy". His time as a mercenary who did not trust anyone and only wanted money is more Wesker-style (maybe replace "money" with "power" in Weskers case).

Who needs money, or power, when I have both!

Then again, his father DID try to bring in the apocalypse. He kinda had it coming. I mean, I can understand there being a bit of resentment but he shouldn't hold it against Chris forever.

Yeah true his father was a calculating evil madman. He'd probably do to Jake what he did to his love interest in RE5 just to suit his own goals if need be. Although that said maybe he would want his son to follow in his footsteps or take over from him if he died.

I put yes just for the lulz.

It would be mega stupid.

Wesker had so many opportunities to kill Chris but just fucked up every time. What a fool, he's still my favorite character. I think Chris would be able to win Jake, even with Jake's moves. Chris has got more muscle on him and everything. Jake is my 2nd favorite character.

I would hardly call Excella his "love interest". The love Excella felt for Albert was rather one sided, Albert only used her for his own gains. I also don't think Albert thought of having a successor. Gods don't have successors. Except in Dragonball.

What do you mean one sided?

I mean that Wesker felt nothing for her. He used her and her affections for his own goals. That is why he felt no remorse when sacrificing her.

Excella was more like a means to an end for Wesker, almost like an extremely unsexually attractive thing, like a sister or a lamp.

Jake's resentment went too far when he was about to kill Chris. Jake was well aware that Albert was going to destroy the majority of the world. Maybe it was because Chris stated he killed Wesker for following orders and a personal vendetta. Though if you ask me, Chris might be a little suicidal. In the first game (REmake anyway), he was willing to let himself get mauled by dogs before "Christhisway!" happened. In Code Veronica, he was willing to face a super powered Wesker instead of running, and only escaped out of sheer luck. I haven't played Umbrella's End in a while, but when I do, I might find something. Five didn't have anything as far as I remembered since he became more hopeful in the end. We of course have it with 6.

How? This is never mentioned. He didn't even know who Albert was until Carla told him.

Jake mentioned that in ch3 that Carla and the Neo-Umbrella staff talked about Albert during his time in captivity about how "he was some nutjob who tried to destroy the world." And also in ch2's end when Carla told Jake that Wesker was a colossal imbecile who tried to destroy the world (Carla is such a hypocrite).

Still, Carla is the enemy. She could have been taunting Jake for all he knows. This is also the first time he even hears about his father after what little his mom might have told him so I don't blame him for having mixed feelings, especially when someone says right to your face that they killed your father.

Good point. In that case, this is what happens when you hide the truth from your kids. They find out when they're older and pretty much end up kinda traumatized and temporarily broken.

Neat, the game actually had a moral to it

In my opinion, Leon, Chris, and Jake all had a moral to it somewhat.

Leon: Revenge may avenge the victim, but it won't bring the victim back. It does provide decent closure.

Chris: If you run from your past without acknowledging it, it'll come back for you one way or another.
The personal message fro Chris is that he acknowledges that Bio-terrorism warfare won't be over for a long time. As long as there's free-will, it might never end at all.

Jake: My previous post says it already.

That isn't a really good moral.

Precisely. I never liked Leon's story much anyway though. Despite being the so-called "Main Main character", his story lacked importance. Sure his main villain did, but you could replace Leon with some other friend of the president. However, I still liked that Leon and Chris crossed paths. Too bad it was short lived and not an actual team-up.

It could have been anyone with a gun who walked in on the zombiefied President. Hunnigan didn't technically need to contact Leon since Helena already knew her. So yeah. Leon was just... there.
