Resident Evil 4 (2005)
Resident Evil at all times had camps.
Resident Evil video games have at all times had a wholesome dose of camp, courting again to the primary recreation’s hilarious voice performing and dialogue (“Jill Sand” It is an everlasting meme in fandom). However with regards to which RE recreation manages horror and comedy the very best, it is Resident Evil 4. Particularly, the unique. Resident Evil 4 Remake has some humor, nevertheless it does not match the sassiness of the OG Leon.
Leon arrives, already carried out with every thing, and decides to unravel the issue with a backflip and perspective. There are some iconic strains that followers nonetheless quote. For instance, “Did your proper hand fall off?” “The place’s everybody going? Bingo?” is among the most notorious.
Whereas I like the brand new Leon and his extra toned-down rendition, there’s one thing about Matt Mercer as Leon S. Kennedy that brings a number of allure and wit to his character. Resident Evil 4 is a main instance of this, managing to embrace the collection’ signature campiness whereas nonetheless taking itself fully severely.
If something, this makes me extra excited to see how he reacts to every thing in Resident Evil: Requiem.
