I write things, I run games, but mostly I spend too much time on the Internet.

Did you even read the article? It said they were given one dose over a six month period. Be serious.

It just butts up against my childhood trauma far too much to be β€œfun scary”. I had much more fun with Village and have really enjoyed Requiem so far, even the Grace sections that are much slower-paced and tense.

They’re giving off the strongest toxic β€œjust a little guy” vibes, and I love that for them.

I’ve been in the US nearly fourteen years and I’ve never met anyone from Nebraska. I think the Midwest made it up for tax purposes.

Trump spent billions of dollars, critically depleted US military readiness and further cratered its global standing in order to kill an 85 year old man who wanted to be martyred and replaced by his son.

Collateral damage included over a hundred schoolgirls.

All to distract from him being a nonce.

It’s arguably lowering the weirdness quotient

RE:CV
Awkward middle child graphically. Tonally all over the place. Steve sucks. Few good ideas, lot of weird ones. Gagging for a remake.

RE6
Tried to be all things to all men. The most RE characters with the least impactful lore. Feels like one of their risible CG films. Agent Sherry was cool.

RE2
Obviously dated but much to enjoy still. Lab is superior to remake version. The real franchise launcher for a reason. Alyson Court’s Claire still my fave.

Midtown:
RE5
Hard to get past the premise. Action is enjoyable, horror is… there? Kind of? Lacks depth. Feels like an Avengers movie.

Decent plays:
RE8
Vibes near-immaculate, but don’t think too hard. Ethan as Action Dad is a weird turn. Enemy design a highlight. Love the Duke.

RE0
Want this to be better than it is. If lore bunnies can excuse Final Fantasy Marcus, much to like. Enemies mostly awful, atmosphere among the best.

RE4
Redefined a genre, still beloved today, a campy classic. Looks very brown on a modern replay.

RE3R
Tighter & more dynamic than 2R but often lacks the moodiness. Some fun set pieces. Jill’s great in this, ignore the chuds.

RE7
Not genre redefining, but refining. Incredible atmosphere.

Next pile: RE1R
Incredible atmosphere, great challenge, does its best with the story. Newbies want it remade again. It doesn’t need it.

RE2R
So close to perfection. Fantastic reimagining of the police station. Sewers: horrifying. Lab too clinical and clean for horror. Needed proper B scenarios.

I like this idea so I’m shamelessly stealing it. My ranking (bearing in mind I’ve never finished 6 or 7 or played OG1 or OG3):

Top: RE4R
Best writing, best combat, well-tuned resource management, great boss fights. Does a great job of elevating the original and weaving it into the broader series.

I enjoy falconry because of the wide variety of birds that can be trained. Falcons, hawks, and especially owlsβ€” from big beautiful barn owls to northern pygmy owls.

A local falconry group attends the regional Ren Faires but also the Labyrinth of Jareth and they are a consistent highlight for me.

What examples of this socialism do you have? Genuinely curious.
