Edit: 7/15/17 Added videos of my gameplay

Resident Evil 6 is not a Resident Evil game. The story travels so far off the tracks that this franchise is hard to save at this point. T-Virus, G-Virus and now the C- Virus, six hundred different kinds of enemies and over the top cut scenes that make the action in the Paul WS Anderson movies look tame. Subplots make little to no sense. Nothing is explained. Villains are just there because the world needs villains. As for gameplay, the co-op element as fine. I'm OK with that existing but why the overuse of cutscenes while your partner opens a door? Or pulls a lever? Is this game trying to compete with Metal Gear Solid IV? Let us play Capcom! I cannot even recommend this game for the co-op and I definitely would not recommend playing this game solo. Why does the game need to spell out the objective for us? Or where the entrance to the next area is? This is the same developer that gave us Resident Evil, a huge mansion to explore and solve puzzles and this is the best they can do in 2012? Capcom should do us all a favor and reboot the series, start from the ground up because seriously, I couldn't give a ♥♥♥♥ you're so desperate to connect the franchise together you feel the need to make Sherry Birkin a playable character.

Ah, then the increase in action is understandable, man. I totally see where you're coming from (I actually ditched RE at 4 because of part of that and moved onto Dead Space). And no problem! I'll be sure to also follow you on Twitch. lol

No biggie. General Chaos and I play through the co-op games because having co-op in games DOES make the game more enjoyable. It also can be funny with the commentary later.

That was actually him comparing it to GoW not me. I barely use the cover mechanic in RE6 anyway. My whole beef with RE5 and 6 is they are making the game more action oriented, rather than horror, which makes me sad because I grew up on this franchise.

Thanks for watching though! :ss13ok:

First off. Sincere apology for my behaviour. It was uncalled for and I conducted myself poorly.

The game has a lot of mechanics that it doesn't explain at face value, so I can see why you'd say that Chris' campaign played like a "Shitty GoW".

Whether you end up learning all the game's little nuances is up to you. Anyway, if you are interested in the other mechanics of this game, I'd be more than happy to answer any questions you have!
