"It Could Be Worse" Thread

If they pointlessly killed off Excella Gionne and turned her into a big mutated blob. Oh wait, they did.

I felt the same as you, Alexia...really, I did. I really, really wanted to like Excella...and for most of the game, she seemed like a really cool, conniving, interesting character. But then the realization hit me: she's no better than Irving, no better than Billy, no better than Carlos...just another disposable, throwaway character, and to be honest, her aspirations of being Wesker's "Queen" were really pretty pathetic. That's it.

well either way wesker is still the only badass in the game im not so sure how they are going to make RE6.

Hes so not dead.

It doesn't say that he died in the files... plus the rockets didn't hit him directly, they went behind him... and all it did was splash the magma around. If he was strong enough to withstand the magma for as long as he did, im sure a chunk of him is still alive and regenerating somewhere.

No, please, GOD, no, not this AGAIN.

I love Wesker, I really do. He's my second-favorite character in RE history, next to Chris. I didn't want him to die, but he had to. Chris's battle would never end as long as Wesker was alive. It's now time to come to the realization that Wesker is dead and gone, and the Resident Evil canon as a whole might have died with him.

With Wesker gone, there are no antagonists left.... there's no way they could do that. I think they made the rockets miss purposely to make the outcome ambiguous. Anyway, its just a theory. I know its kind of a stretch.... but the story has become so over the top that it's probably not an impossibility.

[Beanovsky Durst]

He cheated death once, why he can't do it two times?

But anyway, I agree with you, he MUST die. He's my favorite character ever, but then they would kill everything that made Wesker that cool. Or will need an amazing storyline to make him alive again.

I'm thinking that he might be dead, but he left a plan B somewhere else... He always got away with everything (obtaining the virus samples, escaping, etc.).

ON TOPIC:

How could RE5 be worse? If Barry Burton appeared and was killed by psychotic Jill.
I can imagine her words: "HERE'S YOUR JILL SANDWICH, BITCH!!!!" hahahaha

Yeah, but there's a difference between over-the-top and surviving two RPG's in a pool of lava.

Like you said, there's no antagonist left. Nicholai? Maybe, but probably not, although it'd be nice. What about Ada? Just who the hell is she working for? Then there's the secret Organization. If it wasn't Tricell, then who was it? And then there's just that...Tricell. As of now, Tricell is still kicking. Chris might have something to say about that eventually, but, as of now, they're your new antagonist.

Still, there are no true antagonists left. Wesker, along with Umbrella, were the two driving factors throughout the series that held everything together. If Wesker didn't appear in a game, he was always there behind the scenes, pulling strings. Now, they're both dead. And this is why I wish the series would end with RE5...but common sense tells me otherwise.

[Darkmoon]

Between TriCell and any additional Wesker Children out there (there was a high mortality rate but I don't think all of them died) we have enough nasty ass bad folk to keep going for a while. Given that both Uroborus and Wesker's virus seemed weak to fire (in CV Wesker only turns and runs when faced with fire and burning, and it would make sense since all the various viruses seem weak to fire) then burning to death in a volcano isn't really something he can come back from. And even if the RPG rounds didn't hit him head on they would have sprayed him with, yes, more super heated molten rock.

[TheOvermind001]

Yeah, like thats any better than surviving being stabbed by a Tyrant and a self destructing mansion. JK.

Ada was working for Wesker the whole time I believe. I am kind of curious what happened to her once she delivered him the Plagas sample. Was she disposed of? Maybe we find out in RE6.

I'm pretty sure that the organization is Tricell. AKA a poor man's Umbrella.

Yeah, part of me hopes that it would end here before they make it any worse. I'm hoping that RE6 takes place between the events of Code Veronica and Umbrella Chronicles. They could easily follow Chris and Jill's "anti-Umbrella" organization as they infiltrate other umbrella labs across the world. One can only hope.

No she wasn't. She was working with another agency while working for Wesker. She sent him a fake Plagas sample and gave the real one to another mystery organization.

Wat
When was this explained?
Also, if thats the case then how did Wesker have plagas in 5?

Oh God I can just imagine, "CHRISSS, SHEVAAA...HELLLP!!!" **Chris and Sheva just stare as a Kipepeo flies off with her** "Come on, we gotta find Jill."

Ada's report in the ps2/wii version (the one on wesker). Also, the ending of seperate Ways.

I always figured that the "mystery organization s" Ada mentions became tricell when Capcom finally thought of a name for it, and after finding out about Ada's betrayal, Wesker just used Excella to get the sample he wanted. Either that or the plagas sample came from Irving in a black markets deal. Ada and the mystery corporation, as well as the whereabouts of Sherry and Steve (or his corpse at least) are the biggest plot holes right now.

[BLSR1]

WE DON'T NEED ANY OF THE OLD CHARACTERS.

The current RE story arc is DEAD.


Its time to get a fresh start. Time for a new T-Virus outbreak. Time to go back to survival horror.

[Vogue_Dirge]

It could have been worse...

If Irving died any other way. That death gave me a good laugh.
XD
