@WiltonRoots funny thing is that the hair don't even look that bad. Yeah the hair are not individual strands like on bigger platforms but it looks good enough for me, nothing to lose sleep over:
Yeah the villains all been pretty "Scooby-Doo villain of the week" ever since Wesker died. They're fine but we never got anything on his level ever since he took a bath inside a volcano in RE5.
I wonder if Capcom regrets killing him off because he's such a great villain that people still talk and rave about him to this day. I almost gotta give props to them because they're really sticking to his death and still not bringing him back, as much excitement that would bring to a lot of fans.
@DarkTron it's not when you care about the story and lore of the franchise which a lot of people do with Resident Evil.
All the recent reappearances of Leon that we've got of him were retreads of what we already knew and played. I want other characters to pop in as well and get more stuff but we haven't seen him in-universe in a new instalment since like 2012.
This listing was an obvious AI gobbity goop because it also had a synopsis included before it was removed that made no sense and had no connection to anything that was shown of Requiem.
Beyond Rose being only like 6-8 years old by the time this game takes place, the synopsis that was written out sounded like a fanfiction sequel to 7 and 8 which doesn't make any sense to begin with as Capcom said that the "Winter's Family story reached it's conclusion".
It also doesn't make any sense because the deluxe edition doesn't include anything for Grace who's the main character, why is the synopsis write up only about Rose without mentioning Grace at all and every deluxe bonus is only for Rose but not the main character they've been showing for 6 months? lol
@Theamazing1 they werent perfect, PS5 back compat had issues and games broken from launch, matter of fact it still has games that have glitches and bugs from their backwards compatibility layer that were never fixed to this day.
On PS5 Senran Kagura games have extremely distracting visual glitches and they have never been fixed. I booted up the first Evil Within on PS5 recently and it starts up with the "there might be issues when playing this game on a PS5" notice in the corner meaning it has some funk going with it that was never fixed.
Xbox is the only one you can say nailed it but even their back compat isnt playing every Xbox 360 game ever made.
@Dang_69 I attack because you're pushing the usual doom and gloom narrative by making conclusive "this is how the whole game plays out and it will be bad" type of statements from small pieces of advertisement material while blowing it out of proportion as the whole game experience that you pretend to know as a fact.
Again, you don't know what the whole experience is, you saw few marketing materials and twisted the whole thing into a giant negative push of "Marines bad because Miles annoying and marines meanes no muh isolation and the whole experience is ruined".
What I want is an actual story with meaningful stakes, lore development and characters that aren't mute cardboard cutouts instead of another Metroid Prime 1 where your whole story is just scanning everything for 20 hours. If you find that exciting then great but this series needs to move its ass forward in terms of story and lore progression already.
Alien Isolation(heh) felt more isolating than any Metroid Prime game and it had tons of characters besides Ripley in it. Same with Dead Space. Same with a huge chunk of Resident Evil games. Stop making conclusive statements before the full game is out.
@Dang_69 I think you're overreacting way too much from seeing 20 minutes of footage of a 20 hour game. Stop making conclusive statements on how its "bad" and being a reactionary when you don't know anything about the full game.
People keep complaining but as someone who likes Metroid's lore and story and absolutely loves Metroid's manga and read all of it - I welcome this, give me more actual story and plot progression in Metroid god damn it. Hell I want Samus to actually start speaking in future games as much as that will bother some of you here.
Samus is an awesome character and the Metroid world is extremely rich and interesting but because of Other M everyone just now has instant reaction to story/Samus speaking/other characters as "HERESY, WHERE'S MY ISOLATION".
You all had 10+ Metroid games already doing the exact same shtick y'all want, it's time to change up the Prime series at least somewhat and have it sell beyond the usual 1-2 million units(especially if the budget being 100 million is true).
They left this game to die for like 8 months on Switch and nobody's playing it online anymore so updating it with extremely late ranked matches and PAID characters seems like a waste of time.
They took so god damn long with this that I expected they'd at least be making a Switch 2 version with crossplay enabled at this point. You have devkits ArcSys, did Nintendo give them to you only to make a 30 minute animated slideshow novel?
@ValentineMeikin Xbox aren't innocent either actually, they blocked the release of GalGun on Xbox so IntiCreates had to cancel it and release them only on Switch/PC.
@Dm9982 just a heads up, you can still buy them for Switch on the Japanese Eshop. They released them there with full English language support, the problem is with the western branch blocking the release.
Censorship sucks and Nintendo of America needs to get off of their high horse already. What's with this draconian iron grip in these past 2 years and blocking legit 3rd party Japanese publishers yet they keep allowing all these AI and hentai puzzle slop all day every day on eshop?
What happened to being a more open platform compared to Playstation that lets the rating boards handle what needs to be handled? Hopefully Shibata taking over as American CEO in January will lead to reverting all this.
I always liked this game. It's one of those games during the PS360 era that changed the formula like Splinter Cell Conviction.
And while that and Absolution aren't like the traditional games in their respective franchises - they're still very fun action games with stealth elements and I thoroughly enjoy them.

Re: Opinion: Resident Evil Requiem Needs To Solve The Series' Villain Problem

@PinderSchloss
Sonic Racing Crossworlds PS4: 900p 30fps
Sonic Racing Crossworlds Switch 2: 1440p 60fps
Red Dead Redemption PS4: 1080p30fps
Red Dead Redemption Switch 2: 1440p60fps
Star Wars Outlaws on PS4: Doesn't Exist
Star Wars Outlaws (with Raytracing) on Switch 2: 1440p30fps
It's not more comparable to PS4.

Told ya that Rose thing was BS lol
@Spedfrom we haven't seen Leon in-universe in a mainline game since RE6. Remakes don't count.

Re: Katsuhiro Harada Announces Departure From Bandai Namco
@Samalik no he said he wanted a new Tekken on Nintendo like a year ago. Also, not twice, thrice: Tekken Advance, Tag 2 and 3D Prime Edition.

Re: Metroid Prime 4: Beyond - Meet The Team
@Dang_69 "What I want from this type of game"
You've had 15 instances of "this type of game" from this franchise for the past 30 years already, go play those.
I don't want another Metroid Prime where 98% of the story is Samus filling up her silent diary about alien plants for 20 hours again.

Re: 40 Switch 1 & 2 Games You Should Check Out In The 'Cyber Deals' eShop Sale (North America)
@Mariotag the Deluxe Edition is which is, the one that comes with the season pass. It's 30% off rn which makes it 55$ instead of 80$.
With the 5$ Switch 2 upgrade that means you'll have the full Switch 2 Edition of the game with all DLC included for 60$ Day One!
Re: 40 Switch 1 & 2 Games You Should Check Out In The 'Cyber Deals' eShop Sale (North America)
Grabbed Sonic Crossworlds, a no-brainer right before the Switch 2 upgrade in 2 weeks.

Re: Capcom Has "No Plan" At This Stage For A Resident Evil Requiem Demo
I'd be surprised if there's no demo because every previous RE Engine game got one.
Re: Surprise! Tomb Raider: Definitive Edition Is Available Now On Switch & Switch 2
@AlleyCat it seems to be running at 4k60 on Switch 2, I assume the Switch 1 version is probably 1080p30 then

@AStupidID there already is a Switch 2 version, it dropped with both Switch 1 and Switch 2 versions available at once.
