---

WE DO lT
---

It's an automatic day 1 but... it doesn't look that great, I'm sad to say. Hope I'm wrong.
---

I don't know why they gave Mr X a little hat.

But yeah, RE2! Day one preorder, hells yeah.
---

Poor DIJ got crushed. Looks like RE4-style camera which I'm okay with.

RE2 was pretty famously released in January the first time and got the same criticism <_<

january is the new November going back to last year
---

Very cool I just hope they dont ruin the original game

Was that black guy the guy that died giving you the key early on?
---

Aahhhhhhh!!

I forgot all about the existence of this! Woop
---

rumor is that you can unlock classic fixed camera mode. this is somewhat substantiated by capcom saying "classic game modes are included" which i'm not sure what that would mean otherwise, except maybe the leon/claire campaign split, but that had it's own separate coverage

the trailer for this was a great misdirect though

"the fuck is this mouse simulator

...is that a zombie?

...what

is that...

leon? oh fuuuuuuuuuuuuu"

edit: the trailer in the first post doesn't show it but at the conference it started from the perspective of that mouse, hiding in cabinet that gets knocked over and you see it fall on top of it from its perspective
---

been waiting for this! one more main line re game i can play to eventually finish the series in a totally messed up order
---

I am so excited about this

I thought it had been like quietly shelved or something

So great
---

Though why does Claire look like uhh

PS1 Dahlia Gallespie
---

wait what the fuck

who's this va

capcom refused to shell out the $$$ for union VAs

so they are nobodies
---

also holy shit the deluxe edition has an original version soundtrack swap

like, I was already going to get it because duh but original RPD theme is literally my favorite video game track of all time and the RE2 safe theme is up there as well
---

Wasn't there some famously awful RE2 track?

Also thought the OST was in legal hell for some scandal with the composer, too.
---

No, RE2 OST is pretty legit top to bottom. Especially the climatic Birkin fights.

You're thinking of the RE1:DC monstrosity.

Ok, after viewing the second trailer and looking at things a bit more closely... this looks pretty damn legit. More than anything, I'm thrilled that this is NOT vaporware and that we've actually gotten footage (and a close release date!). I'm all aboard this train now.

Still upset how they ruined my girl's face =(
---

Ah, yeah, that's the one.

What was the controversy? Some guy faking a disability IIRC?

This is a real interesting game for me since I'm super excited for it even though I've never played a pre RE4 RE. Also looking forward to the first good one of this style since.....RE4.
---

I honestly don't have a problem with how Claire looks, I'm surprised so many people are on that.
---

The controversy was the guy was a brilliant composer, but started going deaf. But instead of just, like, admitting that he had someone ghost write his stuff and they were super bad and we got things like that instead.
---

Also it's made even worse because the original OST for RE was pretty damn good and didn't need changing.

This is the track that that one up there replaced

Which is pretty damn suspenseful and has that like classic 80s slasher horror feel.
---

Oh, wow, I had that completely backwards. Thought he was FAKING being deaf for publicity.
---

Oh no apparently you are right and I just never found out about that part

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mamoru_Samuragochi
---

In June 2013, a reporter from the magazine Aera interviewed Samuragochi at his apartment in Yokohama, but noticed a number of inconsistencies in Samuragochi's deafness statements, including his ability to respond to questions before the sign-language interpreter had finished, and standing up to answer a doorbell when it rang.

Youd think hed have practiced

Consider me officially psyched!

GameFAQs: "David Hayter is voicing Snake again!"
Me: Yay!

GameFAQs: "Matt Mercer and Alyson Court aren't voicing Leon and Claire again"
Me: Boo!

Aside from that, looks good.
---

I'm okay with the Leon update since he's literally a 21 year old rookie cop who only survives the initial outbreak because he got too drunk and showed up a day late to his first assignment because he was hungover so he missed the purge.

They done did Claire dirty for like the fourth time though.
---

I still don't really see the problem with Claire! She's just a college student, you can use the same explanation as you did with Leon!

I.... don't think that's canon. He was on time for his first shift, it's just that the city had already gone to shit and he somehow managed to get into the middle of it without noticing the riots, fires, blockades, and hordes of hungry mobile corpses.
---

No it totally is.

Upon graduating from the police academy at the age of 21, Leon requested assignment to work for the Raccoon City Police Department. His reason of choice was because of the widely publicized murders taking place in and around the Arklay Mountains.[7] Having recently broken up with his girlfriend, Leon stopped on his journey to Raccoon City by staying at a motel overnight. Oversleeping from drunkenness a day late on September 29, he rushed back onto the road when he wasn't able to telephone in to the station.[8] The US. military blockading the city having crumbled, Leon drove through completely unaware of the t-Virus outbreak.

Yeah I'm watching it on the Residence of Evil stream right now.

holy fucking shit they added a bathroom
