Typos, ramblings, thoughts within.

The teeny tiny bit of dialogue at the end of the first video leads into the Sorelle chapter, and again, we're reminded of how secrets are a driving theme for this whole game.

Consists of one much longer video and a little bit of another short clip; and the full video (~40 min) which somehow never want to link together in the youtube watch more lists.

I DL'd the soundtrack off steam, and working out the character themes is gonna be FUN. For me, not so much for other people I believe. I think Cicero is all strings? Vasco is the high wind/flute, Amadae may be the clarinet? Got to listen a few more times to work out if there are more layers of instrumentation introduced

Back to the original let's play series - mid video 10 aka plot and stuff gets real, and scary and philosophically horrifying.

Tumblr Crosspost: Resident Evil: 0 Reaction liveblog Part 1/3

 PART 1 (~40 min)

Admittedly, I can't take this seriously because it feels rather wooden? Anyway, picking out lore and terminology as I go along.

Raccoon city. Sounds like people haven't been getting enough sleep. And the game throws references all over the place, assuming players have some familiarity with the franchise.

I don't. Not enough.

Why is that dude standing on top of a mountain? and holy cows that's a rain of evil leeches attacking a train full of people to the sounds of organ hymnal music. Is the dude dropping leeches on people?

Disclaimer: Things make sense? Probably? Expect detours and stuff. Also typoes.

I would have to live under a rock to not know something about Resident Evil, but I never gave it much attention, besides something about hiding your partner in a garbage can? So that they don’t die while you run around shooting at zombies?

Video 3 | Oh dear hell, what is going on. I give up on parsing the sciencey bits and retreat to cry.

More plot is introduced. Ethics has long flown out the window, and the two only serve to reinforce it. Mad science is apparently in vogue, and not only is there a T-virus, but now there's a G-virus!
