Darkside Chronicles Character Discussion.

I'm hoping it's a mistake on this Twitter campaign and not something that they've changed in Darkside Chronicles. It'd really bother me if they rearranged that, for the reasons I listed before. I mean, I know they are going to change things around, just as they did in Umbrella Chronicles, but something like this seems to do more harm than good, at least in relation to Steve's character.

I didn't really catch the odd wording of this until a friend pointed it out to me, but does anyone think this is possibly a mistake? In CVX, Steve says his dad tried to steal and sell Umbrella information, not try to unveil their real doings.

Yeah that's definetely a mistake, Steve mentions that his father was selling Umbrella info to another organization. Capcom probably changed it because they wanted Steve's dad to come off "good".

Claire_Darkside: His dad tried to blow the whistle on Umbrella corporation activities and got killed along with his wife, Steve's mom.

I know it doesn't seem like a big deal, but it will really bother me if they change this. I don't see the point in changing his father's motives, either to make him sympathetic or whatever. A good portion of Steve's bitterness was based off of his father's greed and selfishness. To take that away would remove the core of Steve's tragic aspect, and I can't see him actually being angry at his father for trying to be a "good guy." It just ruins a lot, so I hope this is a mistake.

"Got gum."

What the heck is wrong with this line? Luis asked for a cigarette, Leon didn't have one so he offered a healthy alternative.

Sooo... I guess its too much to ask for at least a file in this game explaining what happened to Rebecca? I've already thrown all hope out the window for an extra scenario with her since thats obviously not going to happen. Do you think capcom will at least let us know via a file or SOMETHING or do you think they have completely forgotten?


- Bitter Rebecca fan.

Since this game has absolutely nothing to do with her, the answer is probably no.

I've always went with the theory that both Rebecca and Barry just got as far away from Raccoon City as possible and went on with their lives. Rebecca was 18 years old during the events of the mansion incident, and being really smart with medicine I seriously doubt she would have continued down the "must fight Umbrella" path.

I want to know what happened to Carlos. That guy was born to fight, and I doubt he would just walk away.

"Got gum."
"No thanks, bro!"
"I don't ever remember being a part of your crappy script."
"Forgot the name, huh? A senior moment, perhaps?"
"No thanks. I've got prior engagements."
"Hey Hunnigan... no glasses!"

I took the Bingo line as a sort of sarcastic comment on how one second everything is intense, life or death action and the next second everyone left and all is calm.

Salazer is still pretty human when he's transformed (as in, you can see his actual body and hear him speak), which is why I didn't feel it constituted a difference.

Also, "Where's everyone going? Bingo?" is spoken when it's just him, and in the context of the battle that had just taken place, it sounds like he said it to relieve the tension.

[Canas Renvall]

I do. I also remember, unlike everyone else seems to, that 99% of Leon's one-liners are to human antagonists, and usually only to Salazar and Saddler. He never says these things to the 100% non-human creatures.

He says it to Salazar once he's the giant freak monster, and I'm sure if they made cutscenes for the enemy intros, he'd have something to say. Usually it's just in-game that they appear though, or a quick cutscene showing how they enter the area.

Also, "Where's everyone going? Bingo?"

[DarkMemories]

Does nobody remember Leon running frantically into a house, barricading it while swearing and generally looking quite panicked?

I'm starting to think linking the various cutscenes in RE4 would clear up alot of the RE4 hate...

I remember the first part but not the second.

Then again I haven't played RE4 in months, so....

[Becky's Butt]

'Cause in RE4, Leon fears nothing. >_>

@PracticalAI Hahaha That just made my morning. Thank you for that. <3 Alfred.

But in other news, I'm honestly not at all sure about the new scenario. It...could go either way, really. Then again, anything past 4, I'm rather apathetic about. =/
