Fantastic night so far.

Made it to the smaller house with what's her name? Marguerite? Fucking hated dealing with the bugs, but getting the little flame thrower was fun. Flying insects have always been my most hated enemy type in RE games and the big ones here are mildly annoying, but a hell of a lot easier to deal with than the classics with tank controls and aiming.

Was great sneaking around the house past the momma. Getting the crank, doing vintage Resident Evil shit. Know what this is? This is the shack near the Spencer Mansion where you fight the plant and make the V-Jolt. All the spiders there. The Dormitory.

I'm not really grossed out by bugs, but crawling through the walls in VR with the centipedes was... well I did get a bit of the willies.

Made it to the pit and fought Marguerite. Pretty simple, but obviously wasn't the end of it. Got the crow key and went all the way back to the main house to unlock one door, but baby was it worth it. Grenade launcher and flame rounds. Which came in very handy for the big Marguerite spider lady fight.

Died a few times, but had a blast fighting her really. Her creeping around the ceilings, trying to ambush you. Me hiding around corners taking headshots. Eventually I fell and got cornered by her and a bunch of bugs and just unloaded on her. I do mean unloaded. She took every shotgun shell and grenade round I had. Finally hit her with one single pistol round and it's bye bye momma.

Went back through the little girl's room to get the arm and that section was amazing. A straight up haunted house ride. Fucking aces. Even had the classics like the ball rolling out of nowhere. So dark too. When the goo monsters showed up on my way out I managed to dodge every single one of them and didn't waste a bullet. They don't seem to be able to handle doors very well and I never see myself going back there so they can all rot.

Stopped for now in the trailer getting the phone call from the son. He's got the head, Mia and Zoe, so he's gotta get got. After that? All that's left as far as I know is fucking grandma and of course whatever this little ghost girl is.

So the story so far is this from what I am piecing together with notes. (Have I mentioned how good it is to have fucking notes in an RE game? Fuck you RE6). Jack Baker looked like a nerd in an old picture of him and the Mrs. So I'm thinking this hillbilly used to be a scientist and maybe was working with umbrella or something. Maybe he tried to rescue this little girl that was being experimented on? Giving me some Natalia from Revelations 2 vibes.

Anyway the little girl seems to be the source of all this. She had a drawing with a bunch of scribble figures as her "family" so I think she's trying to mind control people and bring them into "her family". From another note I found it seems like eating whatever the Bakers tried to feed me at dinner is part of that process. I have no clue if the goo people are considered members or just "turned". I remember a note I found back in the original house listing names.

So the Bakers got corrupted, but also freaky progenitor virus powers where they can take insane amounts of damage and transform into shit like spiders or whatever. Typical RE stuff. Mia...I have no idea what she was doing or how she got mixed up in all this. Zoe is the real daughter of Jack and Marguerite, but she was always like "this kid is sus" and wasn't playing ball. So now she's out to cure everyone, but doesn't seem to care if her family make it or not. Maybe she just figures they are lost causes. Also I don't trust her. Totally feels like she needs my help, but could be using me. Might try to cure herself and that's it. We'll see. Is weird how she knows where I am to call at all the right times. Guess it might be the watch she can track or something?

So that's what I got from the story so far.

Game's amazing. Now that I have a little more ammo and I'm not dying 30 times in a row, I can have a little more fun with it. Also I've kinda said fuck it and just started being less frugal with my ammo. Don't like running out of shotgun shells, but oh well. The progress is worth it. I do wonder if there is some built in mechanic where the game will give me ammo if I'm running low. Modern game ain't gonna just let you lock yourself out from finishing if you run out right? Anyway I've made plenty of handgun ammo so I'm good for now. Do want a new melee weapon, but at the same time don't wanna be too powerful. I hope the chainsaw is a special unlock for replays.
