The HUNT That Never Ends: Resident Evil 3 Nemesis Story Explained & Story Recap
Came to this game from Destiny 2, the ONLY thing I'm missing was the lore. It's hard for me to follow. Thank you.
Glad you found it helpful 😊❤️
Man, that Hoyo Boycott movement might have been one of the most pathetic circuses in human history. Even most of anti-Genshin CCs on the web were making fun of them for being such clowns lol
😂
Great content, as always! A bit off-topic, but I wanted to ask: I have a SafePal wallet with USDT, and I have the seed phrase. (alarm fetch churn bridge exercise tape speak race clerk couch crater letter). How should I go about transferring them to Binance?
You have a error in your video the three pulls were extra on top of the ten pulls given at lantern rite. The problem is also that wasn't the third anniversary it was lantern rite. Genshin anniversary is in August and lantern rite is in January
53:22 "fontain introduces music based minigame" ? did it? i am blanking out lol ... also i appreciate you not adding all the drama lol it would take 30 more min to list all
Thank you 😊❤️ I was referring to Dance Dance Resolution!
@@storieswithcookie oh i see u were referring to the event one 👍 i was thinking along the line of permanent stuff like the underwater dive mechanic and such
thanks for this sis 💙
Thank you! 😊❤️
Excellent video and content! I started last October 2020 and will stay for the story, the lore, the quests, the characters and yes, winning 50/50~
You’re an OG! So glad to hear you’ve been enjoying Genshin. And thank you so much for watching 😊❤️
@@storieswithcookie glad to enjoy your video too! Yeah the Genshin Impact anniversary ALWAYS have issues and controversy, but for me I play not just for the rewards. Its the enjoyment of the game~
@@Direk_Carlathe three pulls wasn't during 3rd anniversary that was lantern rite
@@eddieboston6540 the reminder is appreciated.
2.2k views btw, amazing documents of Genshin
Thank you, that means a lot 🙏😊
Honestly, they are right in fostering a relationship with the community that enjoys their products. Fanartists and cosplayers are some of the most passionate people on earth and will do so much for the game they love, directly promoting mihoyo through their fan works evem mihoyo not paying them irl money. That's why when genshin launched, hoyo was EXTREMELY generous with all fan contributors be it cosplayers, artists, youtubers and writers. In its early days, a genshin fanartist that joined the hoyo fan commumity program will earn up to like 12k primos (75 pulls), writers earned around half of that in its peak. But now, they r ruining it slowly ngl. My friend who still contributes fanarts monthly for hoyo said that hoyo has decreased the "pay" for artists and as a fanwriter, i can confirm that they no longer supports fanfic writers, they still support guide writers though (idk how much these ppl earn). And its even worse in hsr and zzz as that program's criteria becomes more demanding (like u have to have a certain number of followers in the registered socmed u use for your hoyo fanworks), but back then, if you are an artist and has less than 100 followers, you are still eligible for the rewards as long as you draw something to promote the version of the game thats online at that time. That's such a huge let down to the fan content creator community 😔
That’s very insightful-thank you for sharing! Sad to hear things are changing! I know the community was instrumental to Mihoyo’s success
What the hell is the Jin?
Awesomeness 👏
Thank you 😊❤️
Netflix ruined what easily could of been one of the 🐐s
24:52 look bottom left
No way 😂 Good eye!
You might not know but the police department together with the nemesis jill carlos and other characters are in the game dead by daylight, you can play on a map which is identical to the department. Mainly because RE is in DBD i got interested in the lore.
Such a great explanation of the History of Mihoyo.
Thank you so much, glad you enjoyed it 😊❤️
@@storieswithcookie Not really a compliment, I think. Change the video title to History of Mihoyo because thats what it feels like.

Did you participate in any of the Genshin dramas? 😂
😂
Wish I could avoid it, but it's just a risk being on the internet 😔
Nope, that's just a waste of time. I use my time to farm items and run quest stories instead.
Always in defense of the game, never against it.
I very deliberately railed against the 1st anniversary BS. Thank you for covering the full breadth of it, albeit quickly.
If you think about she is eve and he is adam ( adam and eve) the two of them needed to have a human race again just like the bible and reaven must be lilith.
Totally not cool
You can definitely feel the emotions of Zhu bajie in this story 😢😢😢😢
You really can!
Which movie scenes are you showing in the video can you tell us??
01:17 its 2024 and disco still refuses to die disco will never die
😂
I don't like how my girl's character looks at Da Vinci 🤨
😂
You missed the mark a lot. Emhyr's not really a villain. He's a conqueror, literally an Augustus Caesar. He conquers yes, and is an antagonist of Geralt, but he also greatly improved the lots of millions of people. It's my Nilfgaardians and non-humans love him.
Link and Zelda aren’t mute. They don’t talk bc they’re supposed to represent you as the player like Elden ring…
Thanks for the video, I hope you added a caption. My listening in English is not so good. So far, very good content ❤
Thank you so much!
Phenomenal video!! In regards to the secret ending where in the video game do we find out Wukong and Erland were working together ?? I've done absolutely everything in the game but didn't catch that nod. Or are we just going off by what Erland said before battle in his secret area, which seems very vague imo. Still a great video!! 🍻
Bunny the cutest thing ever existed
This video has made me want to go back and play every game in the series again (except Zelda II). I can't do that. I have work and bills and responsibilities now. I don't get three months in the summer anymore, or week-long breaks for the holidays. Anyway, not only would it be fun to relive the adventures, I only realized from watching this how much I don't remember. It would be like playing them for the first time all over again!
I hear you! Not having time to go back and re-experience games is tough. Hope you get the chance to!
Cookie, this video was amazing. I went into Witcher 3 with zero info. After 10hrs of gameplay, I came across this video, so now I am more immersed into my gameplay.
So glad to hear! Enjoy your playthrough 😊
Really enjoyed this game but I think regardless of having a "good" or "bad" ending due to your choices, it should still clarify with either ending what was going on - how Green and the other killings are connected to James' story. Looks like I had the escape ending but really it completely fell short with giving me any satisfaction by tying things up. It ended kinda meh for James, thats fine, but give me some credit for being invested in the story for 5 hours :D
From what I got its more that James is experiencing what Green was experiencing. And while he was trying to solve the Green case he's also losing it.
The biggest misconception about the Jade Emperor is that he begged for Buddha's help. In mythology, the Jade Emperor is considered far superior to Buddha. When Wukong wreaked havoc in the Heavenly Court, the Jade Emperor was disturbed by the noise and asked for Buddha to be sent from the West to resolve the matter. Wukong didn’t even get a chance to meet the Jade Emperor, unlike in the TV series.
It’s so bleak the fact she saved a woman from rape at the beginning and in the end she was the one raped by the guard. I think that was the breaking point of her faith
Such a delightful voice yes this is needed for games now
Thank you 😊
Biggest enemy of the all time in resident evil game "Iventory"
Too true 😭
Talk about the Erlang Shen's flood control, that project exists. It's in Sichuan Province, called Dujiangyan. It harnessed the river using a new method of channeling and dividing the water rather than simply damming it, which is a genius design and made Sichuan the richest province of China since ancient time. In the history book, the project was overseen by Li Bing and his son, whose legendary status has led many to associate him with Erlang Shen.
Very interesting-thank you so much for sharing!
will you expalin robs a bank lore? i cried with that game, or have you already done it?
Why are you even mentioning Alex mason Living, it's Cannon, that is Dead
Freyna
Freyna is awesome!
At least they are starting to explore back stories each season though i wish it was quicker
I recommend you collect all codex entries and read them. It makes the story SO much more interesting. For example "Shadowmancer Malus's Letter" (Near Kastleton codex chapter) explains that he was the one who plotted the cursed rain event.
This is bible of Throne And Liberty fandom. Keep cooking.
Thank you 😊 ❤️

What did you think of the campaign?
i havent seen any do this video thank u for makeing it
Glad to hear! 😊❤️
The TV series is absolute dogshit
in the original story. there's no romance for zhu bajie and mother spider.
