Resident Evil Damnation

Everyone is so hyped up for this guy to be Ark. Was he even an interesting character? I mean the RE Survivor was a pretty crooked entry in the series so it's hard to imagine something good to come out of it, including the main guy.

Say what you will about the rest of the boxart, at least it uses the best-looking font in the series.

Well Survivor was good enough to be considered canon so you never know. If it is indeed Ark, it would make sense because he not only resembles ark, but unlike Billy, Carlos and all the other "where are they now" characters, Ark was good friends with Leon.

Of course it wouldn't make much sense marketing wise either , since Survivor was a flop and only hardcore fans(Who CAPCOM is no longer aiming towards) even know who the hell Ark Thompson is(Who makes Barry Burton look like a mega star). I think most people are just interested to see a blast from the past and even more so, are suprised that CAPCOM would even do such a thing.

How Ironic would it be if this turns out to be Ark Thompson and the fanbase grows to like him!

Survivor was kinda crappy but I did like some of the story.

i think the boxart is badass

When I played the first time, despite the horrible voice-acting, Ark seemed to be a very cool character.

Jesus, I really hope thats Carla.

The guy is either :
- Leon's russian counterpart
- a war journalist
- some random civilian who happens to be important for some reason
- a combination of the above
But Ark ? No way, for obvious reasons. He will never come back in the series. Then again, I said the same thing about Sherry, so...

Difference though is we wanted Sherry back

You mean the same with Steve, Claire, Barry, Rebecca, Billy and even Carlos?
Sherry just got back because CAPCOM wanted another super-hero character, and Sherry was the perfect choice with her G-virus powers.

Sherry has no G-Virus powers.

Sherry has no G-Virus powers.

Inhuman Regeneration Powers?

Inhuman Regeneration Powers?

Advanced regeneration. Isolated to the plot. Not a factor in gameplay. Not a big deal.

It may not be a big deal for you, but it is to me.
And who said anything about gameplay, we're talking about characters coming back, I think plot is the main thing here.
