God if I know one thing for sure about RE Requiem it's that this game is 100% going to leave me in tears, I love the narrative direction of showing the devastating aftermath of the Racoon City incident on a personal level through the story of Alyssa and Grace, I can't wait to watch this game's tale unfold and give us the context as to *why* these two have been targeted and who exactly by, and my hope is that by the end of the game justice is served for the sake of the Ashcrofts, the countless people who have died and for every survivor who has ties to Racoon City, with the government's involvement with the incident and other outbreaks being put into light

New RE9 Trailer!

For those who want to see the trailer, you can find it here! I recommend watching it first if you haven't already seen it because I'm not going to be covering everything in the trailer, just what's important.

We open with Grace and her mother Alyssa in a room at the Wrenwood Hotel. Grace is doing... something? on her laptop that she's apparently been working on all day when Alyssa comes in. They get a call to the room, asking for "Miss Ashcroft" but the line disconnects and then the lights go out.

As soon as the lights go out, Alyssa immediately starts to panic, telling Grace that "they're coming," and they need to get out immediately. There's some cuts between the scenes as Alyssa, with a gun, tries to guide Grace out of the hotel. They make it to the lobby where they're greeted by the guy at the front desk, who's then immediately murdered by Not Vergil-- who, interestingly enough, kills him by putting a plastic bag over his head then immediately slitting his throat while Grace and Alyssa scream in horror-- in a very Batman 2022 Riddler-esque manner. There's also some kind of creepy shit going on with Not Vergil's skin-- it's not shown in the trailer, but it's apparently shown in the demo from what I've heard (take this with a grain of salt until that demo actually comes out), but his skin apparently melts off when he's exposed to light.

It jumps around a little again but Alyssa and Grace seemingly manage to escape Not Vergil and make it to some other room presumably in the hotel where Grace then proceed to have a panic attack. Alyssa promises she'll explain "everything" to Grace "one of these days" and the two cry together. They discuss how they need to find a way out, Grace panics again because they don't have any of their stuff, and then when she turns back around, Alyssa is murdered in front of her. It's the same style as before-- Not Vergil comes up behind her and presumably slits her throat. I say presumably because we don't actually get to see anything beyond like 5 frames but if you do watch it frame-by-frame you can see the blade, which looks like the same blade Not Vergil used earlier.

And that's it! The demo is currently playable but only at the event in Germany, so it looks like the rest of us will have to wait until the press embargo lifts tomorrow to get details on what's shown in the trailer, unless someone at the event leaks things tonight.

Overall, the new trailer didn't show all that much, but what it did show was interesting. We now know that Grace was with her mom at the hotel when she was murdered as opposed to just knowing about it, which is going to make it even worse for her when she gets sent back there by the government. We're also getting a lot more of a flashback than I originally anticipated. In the first trailer, we can see some warped shots of Alyssa, which we now know are Grace's memories, and it looks like we're gonna play through their attempted escape as well. This aligns with what got said about there being a small section where you play as Alyssa, but we'll have to wait for confirmation. I would assume the demo is going to be the gameplay portions between the cutscenes we saw in the trailer, but more info about that should hopefully be out soon!

Thus far, the only major criticism I have is that they've really got to work on the animation for the facial expressions. It's especially noticeable when Grace has the panic attack but everyone seems to lack any change in their facial expressions. Grace is crying, Alyssa is near-tears, yet you wouldn't know that if it weren't for the voice acting because their faces don't change, there's no emotion. I'm going to assume it's a similar to set up to previous RE game trailers where the footage they use for the trailers is from earlier builds, but given how long this game has been in production, I would've hoped we'd get more updated scenes.

I've been thinking about this dialog a lot lately from Stray.

[buffapeaks-tmblr]

i always make fun of wesker in dbd for his stun voice lines sounding so comically angry but really if i was strong enough to pick up and launch missiles with one hand in my world and suddenly it got a lil foggy and a piece of wood and an even smaller piece of wood were enough to stun me i’d be pretty pissed too. he went from taking bullets like it’s nothing to being hurt by an oversized glorified splinter

Creator, meet creation.

Thinking about an AU where Luis Serra meets a post RE3 Nemesis and they go through redemption together fighting against Umbrella... *punches the floor*.

Since we saw Sofia's reaction to the new son, what about seeing him with his daddies? Please and thank you.

He calls his sister “Biba” because when he was a toddler, he couldn’t say “Sofia” and he never drops the nickname after that. Ever.

Watching the new Superman movie was actually life altering. You mean to tell me Krypto is in it and he’s GORGEOUS and AWFULLY BEHAVED?

Guy Gardner has his ugly asf bowl cut looking thing, Mr. Terrific’s mask is gorgeous, Lois Lane is a mf queen. Did I mention Mily Alcock as Supergirl yet? Because it’s good. It’s so good.

And then there’s also the message and the emotions, i mean- people in brightly colored costumes are saving the planet one little squirrel at a time while cussing and telling you it’s punk rock to be kind. AND Clark Kent is just a little farm boy whose daddy cries when the world mistreats him. If that isn’t film then I don’t know what is.

Okay so bad news for everyone on YouTube right now

Starting the 13th, we will have an AI determine if we are children or not and if you are a child, than you are forced to send your ID, send a selfie or a credit card

This has the obvious cons of having your privacy being revoked from you and and in case there is a security breach, major identity thefts.

So what do we do in this scenario?

Well right now I have real idea as this is relativity new to me, but I do have two plans

Plan 1. Bug the shit out of them, send letters and send emails about how much of bad idea this is.

Include why the AI will mess up and target adults who watch cartoons, include privacy issues, censorship issues, anything you can think of that relates to this. I want you guys to bug the hell out of YouTube until they reverse this idea

Plan 2. Blackout.

Since the thing is coming out on the 13th.

The plan will be to completely avoid YouTube at all cost for that day, no watching, no sharing, no uploading, no nothing.

Download videos before things go down, watch Netflix. Whatever you do, don’t touch YouTube.

That’s all I can say right now, I also want you guys to let YouTubers know of this situation cause if it’s important for everyone on the website to talk about this immediately

Spread this stuff around, let people know of YouTube’s upcoming policy and how it’ll hurt everyone
