I know RE5 is a controversial point for the fanbase. My take has always been that the main line series has been survival horror while the off-shoots were for more alternative game styles. While this one blurred that line, I cannot deny I had a ton of fun playing this with friends when it first came out. (I mean, one of my very first youtube uploads ever was a boss guide for this game 8 yrs back) Next RECAPitation is the July Patron request: Breath of Fire IV
Oni Black Mage Yeah RE5 made the community shit on it personally i enjoyed RE7 and the original am more of a horror survival and visual novel fan also wtf why does almost every game RE have a obligatory pilot death?
In RE 8 Village makes this scene canon in RE Universe that Chris legendary boulder punching ability were worldwide famous, even Heisenberg's mentioned him as "Boulder Punching Asshole" too
This was awesome. I feel Resident Evil 5 is a bit underrated and the way you presented RE5 as a actual story made it a bit more interesting than when I originally played it.
RE5 was a fantastic game. I think a lot of its critics aren't remembering the original game as it really was, a game based on corny b-movie monster flicks, complete with horrible acting. Sure it was scary at times, but it was also camp, and I think people sometimes write it off as an issue with the times it was made in, whereas I loved how over the top it sometimes was. My man was loosing his shit, not going to let another partner die in front of him, so desperate he was going ham on a boulder. I got caught up in the hype and didn't care if it was realistic. I think we sometimes deny ourselves enjoyment because we like to be able to say why, but good camp is often in this void where it's so bad it's good but not so bad that it's simply bad, it's just corny enough that we can love it for trying.
Resident evil 1 sucks it introduced new ideas to gaming but even back then I didn't like it. Re 2 was where the series really hit its stride. And re 4 is one of the best games ever. And re 5 is fantastic aswell I will always have fond memories of it and I've beat it 4 or 5 times with like 4 different friends and it's been great fun every time
Despite *repeated* runs of RE2, I probably spent the most time on this one, and remains the last RE game I've ever played. I really loved it. Wesker, though, felt weak as a villain as the climax approached. The whole 'saving the world' speech made him seem far less threatening. If he really was off the rails, and intent on destroying *everything*, that would've left him far more intimidating. I love your language disclaimers, by the way. You pronounced Weltall perfectly, despite this. Also, Breath of Fire 4 in the future? Heck yes! I can't wait for that one, even if the game was released incomplete. See you on the next one. ALSO, also... "After he's cut down to size with the decapitation..." I just had to pause the video to laugh and laugh.
i thought Uroboros was made from the Progenitor virus coming from the flowers and Jill's anit-bodies to the t virus cuz the Progenitor alone was to strong and killed most people.
Great recap again :D. Have you done outbreak series? RE5 is one of my favourite action games and even RE one of my favourite RE games. I can even play this game with casual players who I can warn parts in game and carry them through the hard parts. In the end we have a fun time
Nice recap, but a few things. BIO5 is the best selling entry in the series and remains so to this day with BIO6 being the second best selling. It was also CAPCOM's best selling game overall for years until Monster Hunter World took its place. Jill's antibodies were only from the strain of t-virus Nemesis infected her with, they had nothing to do with t-Abyss. Wesker was in complete control of his mutation with Uroboros since he was one of few with adaptable genes to it.
Hi Oni. Thanks for these RE videos. Have started subscribing to you, and will go through them slowly. I stopped gaming after playing the first hour or two of this, and haven't play a game on any console or PC since that time 😸 Played a lot of the earlier RE games, so I've been curious to see where the story as a general goes. I'm a dedicated film fan, so it's always about a good story and characters, directing and production values, etc. for me. Dislike the RE films though, who doesn't 👻
I really enjoy this game. Just purachased itbagaib on steam for $5. And i 100% it on ps3/4 and plan on doing it again. I love the original horror and looking forward to REmake 2. But this has been one of my favorite ones
I LOVE your videos! How I didnt know you yet? Awesome, perfect, always want to know the history of the games like, its very good, congratulations! I hope to see more videos and your work to continue, Resident Evil 6 its in the way? I hope so, Best regards
Big fan of RE4. First to do the 3rd over the shoulder look. But RE5 is special to me bc that Co-Op Campaign. Got to run that shit w my brother while he was in Boston & i was in NY
As much as i loved the survival classics and the new ittiration of resi 2. Resi 5 is still and will always be my favorite. So many good times of playing on ps3 with my close friend. And to now on ps4. And i also got it for pc. Playing this game of professional is still pretty hard regardless of unlimited ammo or not. With Jill and wesker part, even the el gigante. One smack on that keep pretty much dead and have to fire the right times. Great game
Wow, I remember playing and finishing this game when it came out and though I thoroughly enjoyed it (great co-op game), I remember absolutely nothing of the story hence why I am here. Tbh, only the Spencer/Wesker stuff was of importance to the main storyline. Everything else was just filler.
Rip Kent one of the only resident evil helicopter pilots to last for more then one game Edit: Besides pilots that are main characters or only appear in one game
As long as the track is an original piece and from the game, and not a licensed song... and it's played low enough as I narrate over it... then it falls under fair use. Rarely a company does slap me with a copyright content claim, but almost always I dispute and win given it is being used in a transformative/educational work.
Ah, I see... it makes sense. In the past I wanted to create more elaborated videos about games, but always had fear it could be claimed. Thanks for replying!
I feel like Jill should've helped take down Wesker, I mean it wasn't just Chris that screwed up whatever he was doing in the original game it was Jill too. Don't get me wrong I like Sheva but it just didn't feel right to have her deal one of the killing blows while Jill who was there from the very beginning was just relegated to bystander, I mean to my knowledge Sheva didn't even know who Wesker was before the events of RE:5 even Claire knew who he was when she met him...actually while I'm mentioning Claire does anyone know how she knew who Wesker was in Code Veronica I'm sure she never met him before the events of that game...Back on topic. It just felt less impactful to have who was essentially a stranger deliver one of the killing blows to Wesker when both Chris and Jill were there, at the very least they could've let her fire a rocket at him she kind of earned it given what he did to her it just felt a bit off to have her be nothing more than a bystander, like I know she dropped the ladder and whatnot but I still wish she had at least got to fire a rocket at Wesker.
@@jay9368 it's like everyone involved in the games development forgot that Jill was also there at the mansion like they've played up the rivalry between Chris and Wesker as if it was only Chris at the mansion it's really frustrating. Like I don't mean to belittle Sheva's character because she really is awesome but taking down Wesker should've been Jill and Chris.
@@natbatlightwood5288 I remember feeling a little weird when Jill was hurt and then she kinda gives the nod that it's Chris's and Sheva's fight, but she was injured and Sheva has been fighting with Chris so it's okay. That was just a gut reaction, a feeling of taking away from the Jill and Chris partnership but it was logical for the story. Also Sheva has her own reasons for being there. I completely agree that it should've been Jill and Chris to finish Wesker, it was much more personal and lots of history. Additionally, if you only take into account Resident Evil 5, Jill was controlled by Wekser, giving Jill not only personal history with Wekser but an immediate feeling and reasons for revenge aswell as saving the world as a bonus.
So what has me confused is Albert was the only "child" to survive but, yet Alex has a portait of them both fully grown adults. Someone needs so explaining to do lol
I'm currently playing the game rn. I'm at the chapter in the ship, and maaaaan, this is probably one of my least favorite RE game that I have ever played post RE4. I loved 6 than 5, I played it and thought it would have a better plot and gameplay seeing how many "fans" hates 6. I like the base of the plot though, sadly it's just over shadowed by its wierd dialogue, certain cliches, and some technical stuff.
Seeing again this video, reminded why RE5 needed to be in the sun "Lore" wise because of the new virus which can resist sunlight which is a call back to RE0.
I wish more people would recognize the absurdity of being that close to lava. The whole end battle wouldn’t have happened because everyone would have been dead from the heat.
I know RE5 is a controversial point for the fanbase. My take has always been that the main line series has been survival horror while the off-shoots were for more alternative game styles. While this one blurred that line, I cannot deny I had a ton of fun playing this with friends when it first came out.

Do ffxv please
+Someone who's in a fuckton of fandoms also tankers or ships are mandatory in resi
I know right?
Oni Black Mage excited for your BF IV bro! thanks!
I love how specific your point is about Chris "uppercutting the boulder"
its the highlight of the game, same as sabin suplexing a train.
I find the ability to survive that close to lava to be a far more impressive feat. The game should have ended with all three being burned alive
He beat the SHIT out of that boulder
"After uppercutting a boulder to bridge a river of lava..."
Oh Chris....
how can anyone do that?
In RE 8 Village makes this scene canon in RE Universe that Chris legendary boulder punching ability were worldwide famous, even Heisenberg's mentioned him as "Boulder Punching Asshole" too
I love your little pun at 4:14
WOW "After he's cut down to size with a decapitation..." Best line. Love this so much. Great job once again!
Manteam111 it took 2 years for someone to tell you he’s actually sayonara recapitulacion
I like how you just casually reference the jill sandwich
Obligatory Resident Evil Helicopter Pilot Death
xD
kevin, mike, doug, all these pilots were given some really generic american names lmfao
@@froissart5263 you forgot brad lol
This was awesome. I feel Resident Evil 5 is a bit underrated and the way you presented RE5 as a actual story made it a bit more interesting than when I originally played it.
RE 5 is my favorite so far. It was so much fun!
RE5 was a fantastic game. I think a lot of its critics aren't remembering the original game as it really was, a game based on corny b-movie monster flicks, complete with horrible acting.

If it wasn't RE, it would be great. But... Its RE. That's peoples issues.
I enjoyed RE5 personally
Resident evil 1 sucks it introduced new ideas to gaming but even back then I didn't like it. Re 2 was where the series really hit its stride. And re 4 is one of the best games ever. And re 5 is fantastic aswell I will always have fond memories of it and I've beat it 4 or 5 times with like 4 different friends and it's been great fun every time
Amen to that.
Nah, the acting in BIO'96 is great.
This is one of my favorite games ever
As much as I prefer the old school RE games, this was the best the gameplay ever was for the action RE games.
R.I.P Doug. He will never be forgotten.
They always hate helecopter pilot
"After he's cut down to size with a decapitation" I died.
the ending is very similar to Battle Tendency of JoJo
Despite *repeated* runs of RE2, I probably spent the most time on this one, and remains the last RE game I've ever played. I really loved it. Wesker, though, felt weak as a villain as the climax approached. The whole 'saving the world' speech made him seem far less threatening.

Man RE5 maybe over the top and more action base, but damn it was a fun game.
The Wesker Fight scenes was nuts 😓😓. It took me literally a month to fight him and possessed Jill in that scene in professional!
i thought Uroboros was made from the Progenitor virus coming from the flowers and Jill's anit-bodies to the t virus cuz the Progenitor alone was to strong and killed most people.
Good narrative and footage, keep it up
dude for the kind of content you create you deserve way more subs. Gotta get those numbers up - those are rookie numbers
Great recap again :D.
Have you done outbreak series?
RE5 is one of my favourite action games and even RE one of my favourite RE games. I can even play this game with casual players who I can warn parts in game and carry them through the hard parts.
In the end we have a fun time
Flawless as always. It is a pleasure to watch your RECAPitations.

Uppercutting a boulder. Classic
just watched the entire playlist! AH! so COOL! can't wait for recapitations of 6 and 7! ♥

Re5 and re6 were the best co op game for my best friend and I. We loved this game.
2 Re capitations in a week. I'm in heaven
I LOVE your videos! How I didnt know you yet? Awesome, perfect, always want to know the history of the games like, its very good, congratulations! I hope to see more videos and your work to continue, Resident Evil 6 its in the way? I hope so,
Best regards
17:20 im willing to bet that didnt kill Wesker.
Great videos... Gonna have to play this game again soon...Thanks for sharing 👍
I liked the coop mode! Was very fun :D
Keep up the good work I find these very interesting. Thank You
If u didn't mention punching massive rocks barefisted flying across lava is was gonna reeeeeeeeeeee-sident evil you xP
After he's cut down to size with a DECAPitation... I just exploded xD
Big fan of RE4. First to do the 3rd over the shoulder look. But RE5 is special to me bc that Co-Op Campaign. Got to run that shit w my brother while he was in Boston & i was in NY
Say what you want but RE5 is amazing.
I didnt never finish RE5 because of Sheva and i didnt find anybody to play that game with me. Atleast now i know how did the story go
“After uppercutting a boils to bridge a river of lava “ fukin lul
As much as i loved the survival classics and the new ittiration of resi 2. Resi 5 is still and will always be my favorite. So many good times of playing on ps3 with my close friend. And to now on ps4. And i also got it for pc. Playing this game of professional is still pretty hard regardless of unlimited ammo or not. With Jill and wesker part, even the el gigante.

Can you do the tales of series?!
Wow, I remember playing and finishing this game when it came out and though I thoroughly enjoyed it (great co-op game), I remember absolutely nothing of the story hence why I am here. Tbh, only the Spencer/Wesker stuff was of importance to the main storyline. Everything else was just filler.
This is the game kick started the downward spiral of the "main" Resident Evil story and lore
It's not really a downward spiral if only 1 game isnt that good re 6 Is the only sub par resident evil and it's still a good game.
For the ones wondering about what language the majinis in re5 speak, it is Swahili, and the country set in is the Republic of Congo
Did u know, in merc mode Barry's side melee called "Barry Sandwich"?
Rip Kent one of the only resident evil helicopter pilots to last for more then one game
Edit: Besides pilots that are main characters or only appear in one game
After uppercutting a Boulder hahaha damn he actually said that with a straight face
how tha hell this only have 6 k views ?????
it should have more than 500K
Well, I didn't expect this out so soon.
Buddy, how can you monetize your video if you are using the game's music? Didn't you get copyright content claim? By the way, nice work you did here!

I like how wesker took the time to dye her hair blonde lol
keep up the good work!
Great job
Ah, I miss those punches on boulders
Dam RE!!! Plz don’t continue the reboot. Re 7 was good but dam I want the original characters that we’ve loved for over 20 years!!!
Sheva becomes no more and that's why we play piers in RE6
"After uppercutting a boulder" You don't get to say that everyday. Lol
Ganados can operate in the daylight too lol
my favorite game ever
Resident evil 5 and 6 were so stupid that it was enjoyable tbh
I feel like Jill should've helped take down Wesker, I mean it wasn't just Chris that screwed up whatever he was doing in the original game it was Jill too.

You should do a recapitation on the .hack ps2 games :O
Are you gonna do a recap of Resident Evil 6?
I wish more people would recognize the absurdity of being that close to lava. The whole end battle wouldn’t have happened because everyone would have been dead from the heat.
But this man Chris punches a boulder....
*spends his last few moments of life laughing at you*
Well that was a little uncalled for.
Some way of having the last word. 😅
Complete. Glowball satjuration...
CrRris!!!
This games isn’t give me anxiety like RE4
Can you please do Legend of Mana for the PS1??
RPG Is the key.
2:18 A Blob Sandwich
Fam. Pls do daganronpa v3 recap vid!
WHAT, THEY SOLD OVER 8.89 COPIES, ABSOLUTELY EPIC
It's the MW2 of the resident evil series. And by that I mean clearly the creators injected a bunch of cocaine into it.
the only problem i have with this is that they killed wesker
You will GIVE me an egg!
i dont give a shit what people say about re5 it still one my favorite games
Want a RE protagonist crossover.
4:14 saw what you did there
What is Resident Evil 5..... a drinking game. Take a shot every time you hear the word partner.
Ahh RE5 i remember the community being salty on it
And that is the last we see of Jill to no Jill for a long time Capcom why?
we need RE:6 and RE:7
I hate the wet lands level
Jill and Josh playable mission?????????
I think you should start a bit slower. Don't get me wrong i love your videos but the way you dove into it was jarring
Noted
@@OniBlackMage yeah you talk really fast I find myself rewinding a lot just to catch what you're saying.
Dont be a pilot in resident evil series. Pilot=Death.
Why haven't you just begun nuking anywhere like this?
Man, blonde Jill is sooo much better than brunette Jill.
yaaaaaaaaaSSSSSSSSSS
