Replaying: Resident Evil 1 (Original)

[Dot50Cal]

I very sparsely played the Biohazard version, so I have no idea what to expect. I hear its considerably easier, so..the fact it has auto aim alone will be amazing for Hunters. I think I just played the intro and was like "cool!". Maybe to Kenneths death but thats all.

Consoul, you were close enough. You can get 6 different scenes for Chris hearing Rebecca's scream. One happens as you kill the first hunter, the rest all happen if you try to leave that room. Chris will instantly do the "WHAT ARE THEY!?!" scene as soon as he enters the room you are going into (5 possible exits from that Hunter attack). The guides that say the scene only happens after you kill your first Hunter are wrong ;) Lemme know what you want as a tag, and I'll give you the trivia icon when I whip it up.

ATTENTION:
I recall hearing that there is a scene where you can mix the various V-Jolt chemicals in a manner which will result in POISON GAS being created. Is this possible on RE1 original? I keep finding only Remake stuff, and every combination I try results in the mixture just disappearing.

Progress update: Biohazard BEGINS!!11

I know some people who have been here less than me have a custom tag, but there's also people who have been here longer than me who still don't have one. Aren't tags usually given out around Christmas/New year's eve? Or was it at the start of the new year? Or do people just have to work for them this year? lol

@Dot: I know you haven't started the Biohazard run yet, but have you played the original Biohazard period? I bought a copy earlier this year in sealed
condition...then opened it up to find that I was unable to play it because of the region lock. Duh. I was really looking forward to the Chris smoking, the un-edited intro, etc. Also, if you need any help in the future with Director Cut or Remake Master guides, I'd be happy to help. I bought RE: DC on my ps3 for no particular reason so I've been playing it quite often as of late. I think I'm going to start keeping noting certain scenes and what not. Also, the remake is my favorite of the series so I've pretty much pwned that game in like an hour and 30 minutes lmao.

Ah yeah, that's right. There are two possible scenes that trigger after the first Hunter encounter. The one where Rebecca screams, and the one where she doesn't. I don't know for sure, but I'm going to go with the one where she doesn't scream.

Am I right? Or have I just given away the correct answer without actually getting it? :p

@Dot50Cal

Also, I said after the Tyrant explodes (Tyrant death),

The endings where the character's sub character doesn't live, they don't set off the self destruction and there isn't a second tyrant fight where you make him explode. I thought that is what you meant.

[Dot50Cal]

There's 2 versions of the Chris only ending. One where he smokes, and one where he doesn't...

so 8 total..?

I was counting the US release

For most variants I'll go with the cutscene that triggers with Chris when you kill your first Hunter. You could make that happen in many locations.

Can you be more specific?

Damn I was right the second time lol. Well crap. Congrats Trent

[Canas Renvall]

Anyone ever see this cutscene before?

Also, contrary to what I've been told you can be too late to saving Rebecca on the 2F Library. You walk in after 15 minutes and she just straight up gets decapitated in front of you.

A little trivia too:
What single cutscene has the most "variants" to it?

I'll say Chris getting poisoned. He can either be fine, get poisoned and have to get the serum himself, get poisoned and have Rebecca get the serum, or have Rebecca just be there and heal you. I think. Unless she heals you after she gets the serum.

[Dot50Cal]

Almost correct Enetirnel, but I would say the total number of endings, after the Tyrant is dead, is the following:

Chris survives.
Jill survives.
Jill and Chris survive.
Chris and Rebecca survive.
Jill and Barry survive.
Chris, Jill and Rebecca survive.
Chris, Jill and Barry survive.

Which gives 7 total endings.

Winner If you check the actual FMV files on the disc, the Chris and Jill survival one is just duplicated for both characters. Its kinda odd too, since it focuses on Chris even if you play as Jill, lol.

Lemme know what you want as a tag, Trent. I'll whip up an icon for an RE1 trivia master

The custom tag + icon is still available for someone who can answer the other question

That's true, as the Tyrant one is actually an additional file that's added onto the scenes without the mansion exploding - which expands them as variant endings, but then there's also the Chris and Jill ending which is duplicated as well as another variant ending even though it's still the exact same one.

*Shrugs* Just wasn't sure if it was the collective total including or excluding duplicate scenes and the credits - as it's used for either character and the additional variations as the Tyrant living ones as they're 8 files collectively, but when we look at REmake the variations have been merged.

I had written it up in my post before, but ended up rewriting it. ^^; Anyway, thanks Trent.

ARGH I think I know the answer, but I already guessed > <. I KNOW for sure now why I wasn't right the first time.

Can I give a hint?

[Trent]

Jill survives.
Jill and Chris survive.
Chris and Rebecca survive.
Jill and Barry survive.
Chris, Jill and Rebecca survive.
Chris, Jill and Barry survive.

Which gives 7 total endings.

[Ridley W. Hayes]

How many endings... counting the credits or not counting the credits?

[Enetirnel]

I'm going to go for a rough guess...so, for total number of RE1 endings :

Jill, Chris & Barry - Mansion explodes.
Chris, Jill & Rebecca - Mansion explodes.
Jill & Barry - Mansion explodes.
Chris & Rebecca - Mansion explodes.
Jill & Chris (no Barry) - Mansion doesn't explode.
Jill & Chris (no Rebecca) - Mansion doesn't explode
Jill alone - Mansion doesn't explode.
Chris alone - Mansion doesn't explode.
Tyrant survives.

The other one is the timer failure, but that isn't counted so it's about... 8 to 10 endings if you're counting the Tyrant surviving as two possible endings as well as either one of the Rebecca or Barry not surviving to the ending as the Chris and Jill - Mansion not exploding scene is reused then too.

So, I'm going with 8 or 9.

Whereas REmake has a total of 12 (13 including the timer), based on variations of the originals.

I highly doubt that I'm anywhere close to the correct answer, but that's just the amount I remember from when I was capturing and ripping cutscenes from RE1 PSX ages ago. ;
