Resident Evil Megathread: COMPLETE GLOBAL SATURATION! - Games

he looks exactly how i pictured him, just with blonde instead of brown hair

Didn't Ethan have white hair towards the end when you see the back of his head? That really surprised me but it makes sense once I think about it

There are DLC files for the upcoming ones in the latest patch. [sp]Redfield is Chris for reals. Also he can fucking punch enemies holy shit.[/sp]

[QUOTE=Zeos;51849403]There are DLC files for the upcoming ones in the latest patch. [sp]Redfield is Chris for reals. Also he can fucking punch enemies holy shit.[/sp][/QUOTE] [sp]I thought it was already comfirmed he's Chris since the end credits say his VA voices "Chris Redfield".[/sp]

But he does not look like[sp] Chris at all. Plus he's in an Umbrella helicopter. [/sp]

Also Vendetta Chris is pretty recent in timeline the year Re7 takes place.

[sp]He's straight up called Chris in the DLC files.[/sp]

[QUOTE=Zeos;51849553][sp]He's straight up called Chris in the DLC files.[/sp][/QUOTE] still not really a confirmation until the DLC actually comes out, developer stuff like that tends to cut out context. [sp]if it is him though i guarantee Umbrella Corp are evil dudes[/sp]

Guys RE7 is definitely a reboot!!!! /speculation

[QUOTE=StoneRabbit;51849454][sp]I thought it was already comfirmed he's Chris since the end credits say his VA voices "Chris Redfield".[/sp][/QUOTE] [sp]To be fair, if they were trying to make people wonder if he is or isn't Chris, calling him something other than Chris Redfield(like even "Redfield") in the credits would be a huge giveaway. Not saying he is or isn't Chris but I don't personally take that as direct confirmation. I also wouldn't be surprised if he was called Chris in the files to fuck with people who look through them.[/sp]

I think people are really overthinking a character looking different when the whole series is ripe with characters completely changing faces between installments.

So is there any more DLC coming soon? Like within the next few weeks? I'm super thirsty for more.

[QUOTE=Ganerumo;51849938]I think people are really overthinking a character looking different when the whole series is ripe with characters completely changing faces between installments.[/QUOTE] Chris's face has been generally identical since Re5, and he kept a resemblence to his younger self, changing him to look completely different would be nonsensical, especially with the new Vendetta movie coming out.

Though Capcom did apparently recast him for Vendetta by not even contacting Roger Craig Smith [sp]and as we know from RE7, his VA is different even from Vendetta's. But 'Redfield' also looks a lot like pre-RE5 Chris, particularly RE1's FMV Chris, so I don't even know.[/sp]

Also, [sp]Chris being referred to as Chris in the files and credits doesnt mean much considering Carla was listed as Ada in the RE6 credits.[/sp] [editline]20th February 2017[/editline] [QUOTE=simkas;51850548]Or maybe they just wanted to keep everyone looking consistent in RE7 so his model is based on a 3d scan of an actual person like every other character unlike being just a model that someone made.[/QUOTE] MGSV did the same but Snake still looks like Snake.

I mean to be entirely fair, after years of people criticizing [sp]boulderpunching Chris and the fact that he looked almost nothing like he used to besides being a dude with short brown hair,[/sp] it doesn't really surprise me. It's the fact that Vendetta is the closest thing in the RE timeline to RE7, and that the film makers and game devs didn't even attempt to collaborate in consistency which bothers the hell out of me.

[editline]20th February 2017[/editline] Also if his hair was as dark as it usually is, which could again also be weird lighting. Just from looking at some pictures from RE5/6, his face looks a lot less wide.

[QUOTE=AaronM202;51850587]MGSV did the same but Snake still looks like Snake.[/QUOTE] No it didn't. Quiet was modeled after a real person and maybe some other characters were but they were definitely not 3d scanned.

[QUOTE=simkas;51850683]No it didn't. Quiet was modeled after a real person and maybe some other characters were but they were definitely not 3d scanned.[/QUOTE] Yes they were?

[QUOTE=Rusty100;51850666]she looks the same. but aged. when you get older, your eyes get smaller. go look up pics of keanu. similarly to how chris' face remains very similar through all his iterations until 7[/QUOTE] Considering how Jill had the same face model for REmake and 5, but has a different face model for Revelations which takes place between the two, that's not really a valid argument.

[QUOTE=LTJGPliskin;51850777]Considering how Jill had the same face model for REmake and 5, but has a different face model for Revelations which takes place between the two, that's not really a valid argument.[/QUOTE] That has more to do with Julia Voth and the 3DS hardware.

But I'm pretty sure none of the characters that had existing faces for the time period, like Big Boss were scanned. Which is why Boss looks the same as he did before.

[QUOTE=simkas;51850820]Yeah, maybe new characters were scanned. But I'm pretty sure none of the characters that had existing faces for the time period, like Big Boss were scanned. Which is why Boss looks the same as he did before.[/QUOTE] Firstly, he has more of a resemblance to Chief Keif (more specifically his face is shaped slightly differently so the motion capture works with Keifer's facial movements) than in 3, 4, or Peace Walker. Second, that just goes to show my point, because among the scanned characters, Snake doesnt look out of place, theres no excuse for [sp]Chris[/sp], if he is who it says he is, to look so different. [editline]b[/editline] Ocelot also has a [url=https://i.ytimg.com/vi/gRK1dnYMb8w/hqdefault.jpg]significantly more Troy Bakery face[/url] than in other games. Kaz and Huey also [url=http://img2.ali213.net/picfile/News/2015/09/04/2015090451150240.jpg]look more like Robin Atkin Downes[/url] and [url=https://assets-cdn-image.movielala.com/movielala/image/upload/v1438964313/55c4dae72b015dadb400b591.jpg]Christopher[/url][url=http://www.metalgearinformer.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/01/MGSV-PS4-Avatar-Huey.jpg] Randolph.[/url]

For the [sp] Not a Hero DLC, they turned the melee weapon into his fists. Which is amaaazing. Also there is some sort of gas mechanic because you can equip a gas mask at different times.[/sp]
