Canon: Resident Evil
Taken Characters: Albert Wesker, Jill Valentine, and Rebecca Chambers!
Wanted Characters: All of them. Naturally Chris and Claire as well as Leon would be most-desired!

Do you like bad 80s and 90s action movies? Do you like good character designs and unique body types and facial features on your characters? Do you like horror that isn't defined exclusively by PG-13 jumpscares? Boy, oh boy! Do I have a series full of lariats, bad jokes, and occasionally ✨ feelings ✨ for you!

If you need icons/images hmu (@

torsion) and I can provide for you if it's on PC. If you have any questions or just feel like chatting, you can PM me or reply to my (anon-on, IP-off) HMD!

I cannot make any promises but the RE3 remake is making me fall for Carlos all over again...

I am just watching LPs though, not playing because lol what is affording triple a games, so even if I did it would likely be May and not April?

I'm very much an earnest person so I'm not gonna pretend I'm into the -make (SHE'S A GROTESQUE INSTAGRAM RUSSIAN MODEL WITHOUT ARMS, LEGS, AND HIPS OR ASS???) but god Carlos is wonderful.

I'd definitely welcome it and SHHH maybe break Jill's non-sex for him if that's a thing that would be interested, even if he's younger, for him. If you'd wanna app, I'd 100% cater to you for the sake of it ofc because weh but I'm never one to like push either way. I want people to be happy and comfy overall, haha.

...but also if you wanted some original or fanart icons to hmu. I'm not as fast as I'd like but mmmmm :')

TLDR I love him and think he's an unfortunately forgotten character. Jill is grotesquely inapporpriate in the remake but I'm not so salty that I'm blinded to the positives of it!

I'm somewhere between "hey new generations can enjoy this hot mess we loved as kids!" and "look I'm just here for the LP reactions fam". Though damn the graphics are pretty even with that.

also orly? gotta get jill sum fuk eh? /eyebrows

I feel bad for asking the obvious but she's from later canon, right? yeah Carlos is sadly a relatively forgotten character so he'd just be from 3 since I don't think he has many other viable appearances? I need to reread his wiki, too.

I can do my own icons but I'll always accept not having to do the work myself! Also need a... user name... hm.

Basically I'm gross salty about weenie weak Jill and I'm 0% impressed with RE Engine, but I think it's a+ nastyboy when people can't appreciate a new fan or someone who likes the new things like. I may not get it but lmao I'm not so salty I can't be happy for new folk?

LMADKHGAS I mean RE3make is all anorexic Russian instagram but I don't play her so her canon RE3 is all bigger than Rebecca and thicc and

she's human ok!!!

I mean lmao fuck usernames whew. As for his wiki, unfortunately he hasn't appeared more than 3 and the HK comics are not canon. I unforutnately left my scanner behind when moving so I can't promise anything but I'll try to get my mom to send back since I have all the RE3 comics. Some art was wild but ngl I think most was really beautiful? I think like the first chapter or two of the Honk Kong comics was translated if you google but idk how much content you could get from it. Regardless, if I'm able, please assume I'll slam it to u.

Yikes, thanks Capcom

I'm a sucker for visuals. I know it's not the best new engine out there (hell the PS3 Shadow of the Colossus remake was prettier than RE2/3) but there's this weird part of my child nostalgia brain screaming "IT LOOKS REAL IT ALL LOOKS REAAAAAL" like a fucking monkey.

I'm sure Carlo would still flirt relentlessly with her so I'm sorry in advance but also yes thicc jill <3 <3 <3

I didn't even know there was a comic! That would be awesome if you could get me some from that. Tumblr has been providing some pretty good caps and I've seen a bit of art too so I can hit that up as well. And yeah user names are a... thing... I will forever laugh at how I gave Ren the most generic un ever but it still works for him

I definitely prefer 4-5-6 engine overall, but I think the time taking caps on 60 FPS really gave me an appreciation for the micro-expressions and the effort and energy put into the amalgam faces vs full scans of real people? Idk they're gorg games. I admittedly also thought the Chronicles games looked great and wouldn't mind that style, but they def had... other... problems...

LMAO I mean she'll still blow him off and then joke back and friendsies.

It's super rare and goes for like $50-200 an issue these days, if you ever even see them. They were published in Hong Kong and I believe re-released in Japan. It's the same art/wrtier who did the CVX ones that were released in English! I know there was also an RE2 and RE0 one by the same author but I only have one issue of the 2 one and 0 the last I saw was so rare it went way out of my budget at the time. TL;DR hella rare but kinda dumb? I know the first issue of the HK RE3 one was at least scanlated at some point? I'd have to see if I can find it anyway this is me thinking out loud to myself nice nice

Tbh I think it's a good username... I mean that's the kind people want to have? I just should've done a pun. I'm disappointed in myself for not doing it.

okok now with the actual journal since I. Wound up doing this all sooner than I thought I would.

I get that. Every engine has its pluses and minuses. I did find doing icons from a downloaded youtube capture to be a bit more finicky than I'm used to? Jamie taught me how to use gamma settings to try and get better lighting on them and even then I still struggled to make them really visible without going too far either direction so that's. def a minus on that engine, lol. When you've got that dark of a game going on maybe illuminate your models a liiiiiittle bit? Please? For the RPers? XD I have been grabbing fanart and some other screenshots that people have made look better though so hopefully not all my icons will be dark blobs.

Never thought I'd miss iconing RWBY...

But hey he's here and I'm doing this /fingerguns

Also yeah I figured she'd be less receptive. She's been through a lot, obviously misses Chris here and there's been a huge cap of time between Racoon City and her current point that Carlos is going to have to reconcile with. I'm down with whatever happens between them! Friends, partners, whathaveyou. I am flexible and easy to please, I just want to be able to play him and canonmates are indeed a bonus. ICly he'll respect her choices whatever they may be. Gotta drink that Respect Women juice by the gallon fam.

I did see there are summaries on the wiki of the comics but I didn't go looking too hard for scans. If you do find some send a link my way, I'd love to look them over.

Yeah I kind of. Wound up with a sort of pun for Carlos after all lol. I get what you mean though there are ones I wish I'd thought more on, too.

OH HEY HI IT'S YOU what's up

I generally get caps direct from the games so I can't comment, but RE is notoriously bad with filters (even invisible ones you can't see easily) or using shadows so a lot of it is complimented with mods. RE6 and the Rev games were hell to icon let me tell u

I wish I could RP from something consistent, iconing is so easy comparatively lmao :( But I'm sure you've seen RE5. I actually find the default RE5 filters easiest to color correct but if it tells you anything I've been meaning to get a premium paid for over a year but I said I'd do it after I have enough icons... it's just not... fun to icon...

I mean, it'll be rough for her, too. On the bright side there's RE2/3make isn't canon (yet, now that RE4 is getting remade I get the feeling the original series is dead, RIP unique non-instagram tough gals) and he hasn't reappeared so the sky's the limit for him in the future, althouh I want to believe he also joined the BSAA and they're still bros. :( But yeah all of these lame dweebs are here so there's always someone to talk about shootan the monstars with

The first chapter is here. It's p wild but I overall think the art is good? Like so. I have a few particular favorites in terms of covers and I actually like the really plain ones best. I think the HK comic Nemesis probably was about as bad as the redesign, unfortunately.

I mean that's the way to go. I admire pun/wordplay names a crapton.

IT ME

I like manga iconing when I have the focus for it? But I do a lot of photoshop art anyway so it's more my game than just crop color correct save repeat so I absolutely understand that kind of iconing to not be fun.

That is the one thing I'm hoping for, that the eventual continuation of the series (rumors about 8 being the next thing they'll work on after 4 remake that is) will bring back some old favorites who only got one game. I mean mocap choices aside they're at least already prepared with new updated models so as long as they don't rush it like they did the 3 remake it's something to hope for. Tentatively. With fingers crossed. Either way I figured the remakes were sort of standing on their own with the differences for the time being.

Oh maaaan that art. That throws me back. Suddenly reminded heavily of old Gundam Wing doujins. What a trip. I love it.

I FOUND U

Yeah manga at least is p simple if it's b&w and I can stand it but RE is like oh my god why am I doing this I wanna dieeeeee this is boring and I can't decide a crop let alone colorrrrrr

by the time you mess with colors to make it look right you're like it's fine! But then you realize it looks like you did nothing to the outside eye lmao

Oh, 8's already happening and I know a few people who demo'd. To my knowledge they have multiple different demos to product test but when it's a closed setting I don't think they'll get real feedback. Chris is physically different in each one and this I can't confirm but I've heard it from someone who knew someone etc. and it's that there are versions even with Chris bald? So who tf knows. I'm not sure how I feel and I'm kinda on an RE downer (gestures wildly to my multi-thousand dollar collection of Capcom-made bullshit, stares into camera embarrassed as ever) but I'm always hopeful. I think the big issue is the western producer who keeps doing this shit, including against the original team's wishes. Remakes in Japan are very different than in America/the west and a lot of people esp on the original team were really against 2/3 remakes so it's just... disrespectful? Idk. I'm still like dead eyed and missing my thicc characters and wrasslin, especially since Capcom has made titantrons and costumes for Japanese wrestlers and it's very ingrained in the series.

It's very like, in between old manga art and old western comic art, right? But then some of it is unmistakably gorgeous it's such a ??? style. The covers esp tend to be attractive to me since it's colored in a more pastel/soft colored pencil or paint way vs the interiors which might've been touched up? Idk. The series is an anomaly and myself and the housemates only really know Japanese so the language is a bit out there, though I know some of the dialogue is weird as heck.

eeeeeyyyy

also 5 million shots that look awful or can't crop well or something something imma about to throw my computer out the window

OH sweet ok cool. I just kept getting the news notifs on my phone that were still saying 'rumored' but I hadn't poked around for a confirmation yet. God I need to. Actually sit down and play so many of these. Also you gave me the key to 5 but I have yet to install it on my desktop. Do you know off hand if it's fairly easy to play keyboard and mouse? I don't have a controller that works with it and that's been my past experience with RE games.

I'm still of the "for a new generation" mindset on remakes but I get that feeling, too, if that's the sort of friction that's been happening between the different departments. Like I'm fairly certain SotC/ICO were all done with the approval of the original Team ICO? But I also don't follow much of what's going on behind the scenes myself, to the point where a 3 remake actually surprised me lol. But I'm also very live and let live cause companies are gonna do what makes them money at the end of the day and I'm easily entertained whompwhomp

But you're fine everyone is entitled to their own opinion on a thing after all. Not everyone is gonna like it and I respect that 100%. I just hope you're alright with me playing from the remake? RP is kind of it's own beast anyway.

Yeah I have a few old GW doujins with similar soft coloring. The art wasn't always the best but they still made it look pretty.

I sent the Wesker player over 9000 (literally..,.) caps and that was after I went through them so I feel you. Nothing better than realizing lighting changes in half a second but the expression isn't as good.

Yeah, unfortunately it was confirmed by Capcom. I know they have former Plat people in the company that's doing it and so at least it'll hopefully be dumb but hhghghrhg. OH HEY hi lmdfo take your time. I don't keyboard and mouse because I have issues with my hands, but I know people who swear by it + RE6's keyboard and mouse and think it's the some of the most comfortable. I know it's definitely not the same as 4 but I can't say much more than that.

I think they should've been more focused on the storytelling than money. Mostly, the remake issues I have are fueled by the fact RE.net had a fully international scoped retrospective commentary + questionaire before 7 came out and they ignored everything on it (it was published as an Anniversary Mook book in Japan) that included all the data and ideas in it and particularly inspired stories not just from celebrities of why the series as-is was important to them. They ignored literally everything in it and instead are listening to the loud people on social media, which bothers me a lot. Capcom behind the scenes is a huge shitshow, esp if yon know anyone who worked for them (I knew someone specifically from Blue Castle, which was axed after DR4) and they're just... hgghghgh. Capcom is something Special.

Lmao no, it's totally fine. If I was salty I'd have contacted you in private and said I was disinterested or whatever. I wouldn't drag anything out awkwardly in public or be backwards with anyone. :')

I feel you. I don't have a ton of old stuff and was never into animus so it's mostly RE for me. I have some older FF ones but I think I got rid of them in the move and just saved newer Tifa/Aerith stuff...

Sorry for the delay in replies. Wasn't feeling great the past few days. I'm okay, though! It just happens to me sometimes.

BUT I did get Carlos' app finished and turned in. I'm crossing my fingers it's good enough. I don't often pick up new characters these days and even though I've adored him since my teen years I've never actually played him anywhere before now.

That does suck about how they handled it, though :c Disappointing but honestly after Konami's bullshit the last few years I'm not... surprised? Like at all. Ce la vie, even when a lot of game companies are doing better and being better over all there's always gonna be those few that continue to stick to their horrible practices.

In any case, hoping Carlos gets in. I've been enjoying our thread, as short as it is right now, and am looking forward to more interaction!

I have a chronic illness, so I understand! Don't worry about timing.

Oh hey! Well, good luck and I'll see you here soon hue hue. Jill will naturally unload some weapons on him and probably hug him, even if he's less clean-cut than she recalls.

Yeah, definitely. Much like Konami they've done some great Pachislot games (with gorgeous new animation in them and stories). As a collector I own a lot of merch for it and it's p wild how much energy, effort, and money they put into the quality of it whether it's chair cushions or phone cases. Sad, too, ofc :(

Likewise! I'll be around regardless, but I'm sure you're a shoe-in.

This is the world's biggest maybe and definitely not for this round, given I've never played him before in my life lmfao, but theoretically how would y'all feel about a Billy

I'd personally love to see him around and pretty much love every character from the series, though I'm a little biased toward Barry being the Best Boy. I don't have 0 on my PC, but I'd be happy to run through it for caps!

Ok but Barry is the best boy, I was so jazzed when he showed up for Rev2 even though I ended up not being the biggest fan of Moira. He's just so...big.

I would definitely love that if it isn't too much trouble for you, otherwise I can certainly get some of my own so no worries if it is. Like I said, this is a huge maybe, so I wouldn't want to put you out if it winds up being nothing.

I liked her, but it's so ?? to know she was nothing like that until the translators took huge liberties with her character. But Barry and Parker my gross waifus :')

No trouble at all. I was going to DL it and go through for the Rebecca player, anyway. Are there any costumes you want extras from or anything? I mean I don't have to do it rn and even if you decide not to app lbr caps are harder and harder to find these days so it's the least I can do for fellow fans.

Oh my god, seriously? That's so strange but also would explain a lot about her dialogue. America, why you bullying Barry so bad. He's a beautiful sandwich loving man. ;;

They really are, it's been such a pain picking up new characters after the death of those cap comms. And since you were going to anyway I'd definitely love that, thank you so much! There's a part of me that wants to ask for a couple with him in that awful sleazy club getup, or whatever it's actually called with the sunglasses? But I love his stupid tribal tattoo so default's excellent too.

Claire being into Neil was also added! But it's like wth it's 2020, since when did this become a thing? I can accept 2001 games doing this but I can't believe Capcom would let people be so... this with it? Idk. But you feel me. I don't even care that Remake had the "fit nicely into a sandwich" line. I wanna believe that he has spent like 20 years telling this joke to everyone that will listen.

I can def get it. I think I might not have some, but I have no qualms for paying for costumes for older Capcom games so they hopefully Understand I'm buying it because of love not because I want them to keep doing what they're doing :')

I can def get you caps (icons will take longer), but legit no worries. You can hmu here, Discord @ sunset flip#7359 or

yamper. I've been a bit slow because of RL stuff (tldr, it's related to epidemic yay??) but I'm Around. And seriously don't feel like you gotta app or hmu or anything, though I'd be happy to do dumb shit outside of game if you want to voice test or mess around, too.

I love this stupid series and its dumbass characters so much. I derive so much joy from seeing them around. :')

oh

hello

something something been fantasizing about me

nothing gets me going like a greasy mullet and terrible tattoos baby

Really though, I'd be super excited to have Billy in the game! I've taken her from a little after Resident Evil 3, so Rebecca's had a few months of time to separate herself from their unfortunate night. If I can help in any way with the app, do let me know!

yeah Capcom knows what those gamecube buying ladies want

But that's really good to hear, haha! And so is the fact that Rebecca got to have a nice nap or two after her zoological trauma before arriving here with slightly different, less lethal, zoological trauma. I'll definitely take you up on the help if I end up needing some if/when the time comes; he's definitely not my usual type but I'm inexplicably fond of the guy.
