wesker isnt dead...

[GEORGE TREVOR]

Maybe he means the Resi community at large who live with the delusion that Wesker can be retrieved from what would have been left of him after his lava bath ~ nothing ! Wesker served his purpose, his demise is final, as confirmed already by Capcoms development team, and will only be seen again retrospectively.

[Karui]

Yeah, I know he wasn't. Its just like he said ^

Just let it go dude, the series needs to move on. Its already a joke that Wesker gets away in every game, so whats the point of having him around if hes un-killable? Everything that tied him to the series is gone/dead now, so theres no point in keeping him around.

Cutscene weapons > Gameplay weapons. Concessions have to be made to make a fun game, but you'll usually find they become a lot more deadly in cutscenes in games. Its just a general rule of thumb.

that's kinda like how when you're fighting mr. X in Darkside chronicles, you shoot him in the face like a bagillion times but ada comes over and shoots him in the head once in a cutscene and it did like brutal time on him.

I'm more than happy to accept that fact that Albert Wesker is killed off for real this time in Resident Evil 5.

(Despite the fact that Wesker is my favourite Resident Evil villain)

But if I were to state my reason why Wesker would still be "alive", I would just go with the fact that the Albert Wesker that was killed in the volcano was not the "real" Albert Wesker.

Here's my theory on how it "could" be possible: -

- Wesker has managed to have somehow found another "Wesker Child" that Ozwell E. Spencer might have forgotten about.
- Wesker would then changed that Wesker Child's appearance in order for it to look exactly like him. (Plastic surgery, hair dressing, etc.)

(NOTE: Remember that the Wesker Children are "NOT" clones. The files in RE5 prove them to be not clones)

- Wesker has then given the Wesker Child psychotherepy/hypnosis to make it believe he is Wesker himself, and to make it think that spreading Uroboros across the globe will bring a new advanced race of human beings.

And here's my theory on why Wesker "would do this": -

- The entire "Uroboros Plan" was actually set-up to intentionally fail miserably, ending up with Chris killing said Wesker Child in order to make him and Jill believe that he is really dead. With the rest of the world thinking he is really "dead", the "real" Wesker will be able to carry out a much more sinister plan without any interference. What that said sinister plan might be: I don't know just use your imagination.

For those in this community who might be asking: "But what if Chris had failed to stop the "imposter" and Uroboros will be released into the atmosphere? (By "failed", I mean if the "imposter" has sucessfully killed Chris (and possibly Jill) at some point.)

Well I can say that the "real" Wesker has actually sabotaged the missiles on the stealth bomber, so that when the missiles do indeed hit, Uroboros will not be able to spead across the atmosphere. The "real" Wesker would then "dispose" of the "imposter" and proceed on with said sinister plan I mentioned earlier. Wesker may not be able to kill Chris if it "happens", but at least a thorn will be removed from Wesker's side.

(NOTE: Just in case your wondering, I'm NOT counting Wesker's flashback appearance in which he kills Spencer, after Spencer reveals everything to Wesker, and he later gets tackled out of a window by Jill Valentine, during a struggle against him, Jill and Chris Redfield back in 2006)

2ND NOTE: For those in the community who are asking: "Well if it is true, how can Excella Gionne/Ricardo Irving/etc. tell the difference between the "real" Wesker, from the "imposter"?

All I can say is that the "imposter" would be wearing the "black trench coat".

Well that's my theory on why Wesker might be "still alive". Other than that I'm happy to accept that his death is indeed "final".

[Beanovsky Durst]

Nope. Don't want to be offensive, but your plan seems more farfetched than a "clone" plot (which actually is possible in the series... Sergei anyone?).
Brainwashed, plastic surgery, failing Uroboros plan...

Wesker, for all post RE-5 purposes, is dead.
Fear not, my fellow Wesker fans, there's always flashbacks and prequels!

[RetroRain]

Are people still discussing the possibility that Wesker may be alive? A Capcom producer/director stated and confirmed that Wesker is dead.

[Karui]

That sounds feasible imo, but we know it won't happen.

This. It's kind of hard to debate against someone who helped make the game. Give it up, guys, Wesker's gone. And by the looks of things in the series, that may be a good thing.

[REmaster]

^ Yea if it was up to me the whole cast would have died...except for Barry because he's possibly a grandpa by now. It would been so sweet if Chris just self-sacrificed himself to take out wesker, Leon finally FAILS at evading a non-escapable death trap, Jill was really dead...ya know, things that they would never dare do. Then, THEE FUCKING END.

I'd be pretty happy knowing that the characters I grew up loving were finally laid to rest.

I didn't say it was a plan. I said it was a theory.

I've already accepted Wesker's death a long time ago.

What I've written in my earlier post is more like a pointless, groan-worthy "what-if" scenario that you would probably read in your average Resident Evil fanfiction.

I have also stated in my earlier post that I'm happy to accept the Capcom producers' descision to state that Wesker's death in RE5 is final.

EDIT: Remember when I also have written in my earlier post on this matter that I had written "if" I were to assume Albert Wesker is still alive. (Which I know he isn't. Seriously, how can you survive being hit the face with two rocket-propelled grenades, while practically roasting in a lake of hot magma? It's impossible to survive "that" kind of punishment.)

By the way zomBD, your comments about my post did not offend me at all. In fact I actually liked it.

[Beanovsky Durst]

Cool, I just thought it was a bit too much, even for the RE universe. But I understand that it was an "what if" scenario... Still too much . I guess Wesker is good as it is. A molten pile of flesh, virus and bone.
As most Jill fans, I really hope there's more Wesker in the works. Alternative/Gold Edition is a nice touch to mourn Wesker's death Now if there were more prequels

[Cuz7ate9:(]

I know... I know... You cannot believe Capcom murdered Wesker. You don't wanna admit that he's gone. Blah blah blah...

Believe it, people. He's dead, for real. I myself did let out an eye roll and gave a shrug when the scene folded. But you know what? The series was never about just Wesker.

That said, I still think they got rid of him prematurely. Wesker was one of the top villains of any game. They could have done so much more. But, there's nothing you can do about it...

Fair enough.
