About Video Game Sophistry:
Video Game Sophistry is an opportunity to celebrate the creators and the artistry found in Video Games. I believe that Games are the most effective medium from experiencing another world, and another way to live. Expect to see a series of videos showcasing the narratives hidden in every game, interviews with game developers, along with our bench mark weekly podcast, Dialogue Wheel.
Andy Borkowski started this program nearly 10 years ago and, in that time, it has changed from a simple UA-cam show, to a radio show, a TV show and now once again a UA-cam destination. Welcome to VGS.

CORRECTION! When describing CLAUDIA Beneviento I called her Donna's MOTHER I meant SISTER and I can't believe I made that error. UGH.

You should pin this
Pin this
Might wanna pin this.
It's even possible that Donna and Claudia were twins, with a strong connection, like the sun and the moon on the family sigil. Donna looks like she could be born in 1987 as well. And if she is dressed in black, it's maybe to mourn her twin sister, which death could have really impacted her, and not to grief her parents, who are not really refered to in the lore. Maybe her father gave Donna the doll after Claudia's death, and she since talks to her like she used to talk to her twin sister. I know it's a lot of speculations and "Maybe", but that could make sense.
When you realize that in this boss fight,YOU are the one who is chasing donna,not her chasing you.
Yeah, it makes Ethan the monster from Donna’s point of view....
In reality Donna was hiding and Ethan was going after her then stabbing her in the head with scissors
@G. G. True
@@hkhkhk2 Well, look at the traumatising nightmare she put him through in her basement. All things considered, she kinda brought that on herself.
@@ZenMonkeyGod That’s also true :P
When Angie tries to climb on Donna laps when we first met them its kind a cute
Yessss omg it's so adorable, and the way Donna bends to pick her up is so cute too she's like her mother
Donna laps?
That scene made me fall in love with the character I was really hoping for more with her and honestly I didn't like how she died :`(
Really? Omg man no wonder the leaders are eating fries and burgers talking yall into vxs
I actually didn't see Donna in that scene, and was surprised when she showed up dead after her boss battle.
It's kind of creepy / cool to know that when Ethan is chasing Angie he's actually chasing Donna and is just hallucinating that it's Angie, there's almost some reverse horror here in a way because it's like Donna is running and trying to hide from Ethan but he keeps finding her, thinking that it's a "game" he's playing with Angie, but in reality it's him running through the house stabbing Donna with a pair of scissors in a blind rage
OMG YOU ARE RIGHT WTF
When crack went wrong
@John Gona
Not really
Karl let ethan live even after he refused to help him
He only tried to kill him after Ethan tried to get in the way
@John Gona he's not too bad after all, all he want just to be free
Donna: NIGERUNDAYO
I absolutely love how we immediately jump from a boss who is loud, overconfident and self-absorbed in Lady Dimitrescu to a boss that's pretty much silent, sad and wants to shield herself away from society.
That was pretty neat. :)
@@cassandrabrooks5185 indeed
And for those reasons are why I want to give her a hug
@@Batcena me too
you don’t have to do them in that order lmaoo
Donna is the one character that I wish we got more of. She and her dolls had way more horror/creep factor than the vampire chicks.
The vampire chicks were kind of attractive tbh.
They could have done more things with them tbh
Yea but the whole point of this game for them was to steer away from horror more and go towards action like re4 because they though re7 was too much
@@Odysseus1999 They were made to be sensual and lustful since they are vampires lol
Even tho it’s not dedicated to me it still feels weird having people mention my name😟
wish Donna had more screentime, still the most terrifying part of the game though
Nah bro I wasn't tripping when I was at Donna's house Im just built different
@@ethanwinters380 owkey eeeeethan
Especially the baby
@@themadhatter6554 oh god that’s the most disturbing shit I’ve seen in all the re games
Yeah , i also think it was really short. Her screentime
I think Donna prefers childlike mannerisms while she acts through Angie because she had such an empty, tough childhood
Probably, it's a common coping mechanism for people with childhood trauma :( It hurts,,,
All the 4 lords are very childish
@@rentacop7038 Even Heighsemberg?
@@mayorgeneralramirez1997 “You’re the one!” Yeah; he still argues like a kid in the schoolyard.
@@jay21281 "Oh keep growing, maybe some day your head will actually fit your ego!"
Claudia Beneviento was only 9 years old when she dies according to the tombstone. I thought it was her mother too until I noticed that.
Yeah, I can see how some people would miss that. Claudia was probably a sister or aunt of Donna's that died unfortunately young.
I think Claudia is a sister/stepsister that probably died due to the haunted mansion and Donna brought back into the doll Angie as the doll speaks in a annoying childish voice.
@@violingolfer2028 that would be really interesting. I hope House Beneviento will be further explored in a DLC.
Maybe it shows that her history is even darker, it would explain why the baby is portrayed as oversized and why Mia (in the tapes) says the baby is too big. Maybe her mother was 9 (sadly there are real stories that shows it’s possible) but died in labour because Donna as a baby was too big for her body to handle.
@@arnaudlafay3465 that is a possibility, it just doesn't make sense why Ethan would get hallucinations based on information he did not know.
In fact Donna & Angie are the first lords he meet.
Heisenberg: am I a joke to you
That's exactly what I was thinking
Same lol
I mean he's talking about Angie doll so he's not wrong
@@LUCAS420BLZ Heisenberg is the one that captured you and brought you there, so yeah no. But yes, in that cutscene, Angie/Donna is clearly the one we see first. But we met Heisenberg right before that cutscene as he literally dragged us there.
@@missilemassacreonline well I know but if we go by the literal logic we first meet Miranda then heisenberg then Donna moreau and big tall lady
But I'm just talking about the cutscene also this comment got to me really late lol
Dark theory: She was tired of Miranda's lies and purposefully wanted Ethan to end her life once she realised he could escape the baby fetus hallucination. That is why she did an easy hide and seek game instead of transforming. But the death seemed to painful and she kept running away as evidenced by the blood on the walls but eventually she managed to purposefully enraged Ethan to kill her.
Ouch.
bit late but wait, she can transform like lady d??
@@herovadam4969 like all of the four lords, they can transform into a beast due to the mold, too bad we couldn’t see that for Donna
@@emptyricebowl Why do you think that? Dimitrescu transforms into a monstrosity because her cadou assimilation is imperfect without regeneration, fish guy transforms because having an uncontrolled fish transformation is his whole gig and Heisenberg could "transform" sheerly because putting metal all around him is a practical form of combat defense (he doesn't literally transform, just makes a mech suit). Donna however had nothing to imply she'd be able to transform.
I personally think she couldn’t transform due to the fact that she split her cadou between the dolls leaving too little within herself to further mutate and transform idk tho
Interesting that Donna is the only lord not to leave a crystal. She leaves Angie, who functions similarly, but no crystal.
I'd say is because she didn't have the opportunity to transform. Ethan killed her early. Before Ethan stab her for the last time, you can see those string things coming out of Angie. I'm curious about what her deformed version looks like.
@@ihaveshitonmyhead9821 those things replace her scar.
It's possible she didn't leave a crystal because she split her cadau between her dolls. All the other bosses transformed into a monster and then crystallized when they died, but Donna may not have a transformation due to a much smaller amount of the parasite inside of her, and they may not be enough parasite to crystallized either
People even check if Angie was hiding a crystal in her dress
@@sesslar2096 this is just my own speculation, but it seems like the cadou transforms along with the host. When the host dies and turns to ash, the cadou also dies and crystallizes much like the 3 sisters. Using this train of thought, Donna splitting her cadou would explain why neither her nor Angie transformed, and why you don't get a crystal. Of course, that doesn't explain why you'd get one from heisenberg, but that might just be a game play thing
When you realize that the "Boss fight" with Donna is actually you being the Scissors man as you hunt her down.
AKA reverse Horror when Ethan is the monster to Donna
Yeah pretty fucked up right?
@@VideoGameSophistry yes
Whoa. If thiswas the case, wouldn't Donna be aware that she's putting herself in danger by maintaining her control over his hallucination?
It maybe also based on the Japanese urban legend Hide and Seek with the doll or Hitori Kakurenbo. First you are the "It" and must find the doll then stab it with a sharp object most likely scissors.
@@jvjv8093 I don't think she was mentally stable enough to truly understand what she was doing. In that moment she was a child acting on instinct. Hiding behind the doll that protected her.
Notice when he woke up from the hallucination, he didn't really have a scissor, so he acutally killed Donna with his bare hands, it's crazy.
that explains how she didnt die from being stabbed in the fucking head three times before kicking the bucket
dude he finds scissors in the gameplay, so no.
@@popeallahsnack-bar9804 No that’s most likely a result from the cadou (hopefully that’s how you spell it) in her cause. Honestly at this point it’s hard to say what exactly was a hallucination and what wasn’t... AH my head
@@Deep_in_d "dude" that gameplay is hallucination from the moment you enter her area. It´s impossible to say what was real and what not.
Then Ethan was actually brutally beating her up... my poor Donna 😭😭
Never forget that the Resident Evil 8 puppet commercials are canon because Donna is revealed to be the one operating it near the end.
And tbh Donna's Japanese VA are sounds way too cute in that show
What pupper commercial? Share link pls

Even if it was her grandma I still woulda took em both down cus I'm built different

After you defeat her you can look at the back of the family photo to read “Save our Rose”
I didnt know that but thats cool
These aren’t tears they’re uhhhh allergies
@@aromanovg9528 allergies from all the hallucination pollen.
That's what made me feel really bad about killing Donna. I wish she and Angie got more screen time.
@@dragonheart1236 yes exactly! you get it
I wish Donna speak more her voice is so fine when she said "don't leave I can't let you."
Donna so fine, why the hype of Lady D?
@@aromanovg9528 YO THATS WHAT I THOUGHT. Lady D's daughters were too
It wasnt her voice for me
Her pictures thought the house show she was gorgeous when she was alive
@@aromanovg9528 i've been saying the same thing!!!
Her voice is so damn good. Sad that they didn't credit the voice actress though.
I took the comment of 'everything would be better if Rose wasn't born' as Donna realizing that Miranda is going to throw them all away once she gets what she wants.
Probably for the best though. She's a horrible fucking monster. She used and tortured everyone.
@@mayorgeneralramirez1997 BSAA could've used her to create a cure.
Tbh Donna is my favorite female character and i really wish we could spend more time with her so we can know more about her and Angie
You are into dolls are you?
@@pozytywnawibracja17 no i just think she's really interesting character and i want to know more about her
she is a introvert. not much detail
@@SirBiszkop Maybe but for me Creeppy!
I mean ... she’s hot if that’s what you mean
What's kind of messed up is that we see that after Donna says to not leave, Angie says the same thing but in a hostile way with different wording, which I think might be an indicator that Donna is actually really begging with Ethan when she talks to him before he stabs her, but Angie twists her words to make it seem like she's mocking him, which only fuels Ethan. Majorly fucked up.
That's disturbing af
So you know when the giant ugly baby made the appearance? If it was just Ethans hallucination, how did the baby eat him and kill him?
@@Sayre777 It's still happening for him in his mind. Think of it like the Matrix, nothing that happens there is actually in the real world but your mind still perceives it that way.
@@Sayre777 That I do not know. That baby is also really random as it doesn't have anything to do with Donna's abilities. It's an anomaly as to why it even exists
@@donnabenevientoismygothmom9535 but wasn't Donna the one who controls Angie, so she uses Angie to talk to people?
This sequence of chasing Donna really is a madhouse. Just imagine Donna running away with a big ass doll in her hands, hiding in corners like a child, and then flailing her doll around like it was moving when Ethan found her, then doing a silly ass voice. It’s almost funny to imagine because of how goofy it would look. Of course, it’s more sad than anything else for Donna.
Very comedically dark
I believe the voice actually comes from the doll tho
Yeah poor Donna was just one of many victims of Miranda and killing her a totally set her free from pain
Angie is actually alive because she has the most Cadou donated to her from Donna. Donna actually can possess Angie to talk through her, but I imagine she usually just lets Angie talk.
When you realize the 4 lords are just victims after all. Rest in peace for all poor souls
Specially poor Donna and sad, desperate Salvatore. He got one of the worst fates from Miranda. I know he killed people and that he was a cultist, but I also think he was being manipulated and used while being desperate for love and acceptance. The fact that he wrote "sunny day" or "cloudy day" in the entrances of his diary just make me feel so sorry for him. He didn't deserve all the horror.
That's why I love this game. We think we are doing something right by defeating them but after learning their stories you realise that you could have helped them. Also the way it isn't as much of a horror as the other resi games but have the most tragic and horrifying backstories really sold it for me
That's true. Mother miranda is what made them evil,
@@noquemacuhh1967 Yeah, The Lord's are victims like Ethan
I honestly feel bad for all of them even Miranda I know it was so very wrong to do those things but she only wanted her daughter
In this fight when you find angie on second floor, you can see that angie has the shadow of donna
I don’t see it. Do I need to look at a certain angle?
@@thats_the_cream3663 no I think its a fixed scene, it'll be a quick look you have to pay attention
11:01 i rewatch it with speed 0.25x still shadow of Anggie
Yeah it's just Angie's shadow. Although I thought the same thing, after doing that part several times, it's just Angie's shadow.
I wouldn't say its a funeral dress. It looks almost like she's wearing a stagehand outfit to give Angie the spotlight while she fades into the background.
it's a victorian mourning dress, she probably wears it to hide the scar on her face and to represent the loss of her family
It’s a mixture of both, it is a mourning dress but the other inspiration is also a stagehand outfit.
The outfit for her works in multiple ways and I love it
yeah it's pretty clever, wearing black to become "invisible" to the audience
It literally looks like a burqa
@@aronhorvath6518 Victorian mourning veils. Look then up, kinda sad that the pigments used to dye them were toxic haha
This makes the thing all the more tragic: she just wanted to play and used her killer dolls and the hallucinations as a motivation for Ethan and then finally in the end she realised what was happening to her
In her own twisted way yeah
If you think about it ethan is just hallucinating that this is a game and donna just realised that ethan is trying to find angie like in the "game" But in her eyes she is running away from a psychotic man with a pair of scissors trying to kill her
No she's not innocent, she killed the gardener and would have had Ethan killed by the rose baby monster. She's no less evil than moreu
She was still messing with my head bro she should've known better I'm just built different
If you don't find Angie in time, donnas dolls kill you....she's evil
It's sad that in Donna's point of view, she's hiding from Ethan. Ethan is the monster in Donna's eyes. But in the end, Donna can finally rest her soul along with her dearest Angie.
Edit: bruh I just felt bad for Donna okay? ;-;
It makes sense... Its a nice twist and pretty fucked up if you think about it. It wasnt a boss fight ... She was hiding from you the whole time
Ah so Ethan is the Doom Slayer of the Resident Evil universe then.
Unless you miss the horrible part where Ethan even sold Angie to the Duke
@@anandagovinda6419 one man's trash is another woman's tresure.
@@kanatapaw wait Duke's a woman!?
Looking at her painting she has such an incredible beautiful face, she is truly stunning.
Down bad it’s a video game
@@rayhanrs1385 super down bad, and he’s crazy lol if he actually played the game he’d realize that’s a fake picture of her in the house because it’s stated in the letter since childhood she’s always had a big scar across her face which isn’t visible in that photo
That’s not even how she looks lmao
@@adrienm8989 Of course the painting is not real and may be a part of the hallucination, it is how she sees herself without the scar > An image of what she could have been.
I think that was her when the virus healed her scar and before shit went down in the village. She had SUCH a georgeous face before the virus fucked up her already healed scar even more. It's such a shame though...
I really feel bad that she had no friends when she was little because of a scar on her face
Kids are jerks
Yeah I feel sorry for her
And the only ones who cared about her were Miranda and the gardener
@@iamadisappointment318 well her father cared about her till his death
@@suckmyassyoutube6011 yup
Mind blowing fact: Donna was the real name of a student who was gifted the original Annabelle doll by her mother, on which the movie is based. And guess what, her roommate was named Angie. I guess that's why Capcom made this part scarier than other parts of the game.
THANK GOD I AM NOT THE ONLY ONE
I hadn’t thought of that
Woooaaaahh
at 11:24 you can actually hear angie almost whimper like it’s a sign that donna is in pain, but at soon as the doll looks up you can’t tell
in the french version of the game its more like a giggle, like if the doll found it amusing to play a lethal hide and seek game
in the french version of the game its more like a giggle, like if the doll found it amusing to play a lethal hide and seek game
I think Claudia Beneviento is Donna's sister or daughter idk, the years in the tomb (1987-1996) doesn't add up to be the age of a mother. Claudia died when she's 9 years old.
I was thinking she is her daughter, but it doesn't add up. She was a little child when this gardener write about her and Claudia was already dead
@@Pigraider268 I think that Claudia was Donna's sister and that the sun/moon motif have been symbolic of them being siamese twins(and the original reason for Donna's scar before the cadou made it worse). We will never know though as there's so little info to go on, unless a future DLC sheds more light on the subject
@@Pigraider268 that and who would Donna have a kid with ?
@@microwave4928 Agreed, Donna was a complete recluse and also seemed to have no intention of doing anything associated with adulthood. She plays with her dolls and seems entirely fixated on the fact that her "adopted" mother has lost interest in her for Ethan's daughter
@@slimjimpui now that you've said that, this makes more sense if they really are siamese twins, I hope we got a dlc about her and the dimitrescus these 2 lords are really interesting
I honestly feel really bad for Donna. She genuinely seems to enjoy having Ethan there despite knowing she has to kill him for Mother Miranda. She’s so lonely.
I had a small idea/theory if Donna found out that she was just a tool in Miranda's plan to bring back her daughter Eva would Donna had turned on her and help Ethan save rose? I mean we see and hear that Miranda never really cared or loved the four lords she saw them as just test subjects for experiments for the perfect vessel/host. It would be interesting to see the other lords turning on Miranda and helping Ethan stop her and try to lead the village the right way and maybe turn good. Just a thought
Taking down Donna is the most terrifying part of the game in my opinion.
so you are telling me that the baby was less terrifying than her?
@@preciousblesstomonghal3393 he means that part of the game
Nah bro it wasn't cus I'm built different
@@ethanwinters380 LOL
@@ethanwinters380 comment of the year xD
I like to imagine that ethan is chasing donna down in the mansion while shes fuckin booking it around in her robes
Nyoomin around with angie in her arms
Just "AH FUCK HES COMING"
Ethan high on those flowers would probably yell "GET YO ASS BACK HERE BOY"
Paula Rhodes (aka Eveline) did a fantastic job breathing life into that creepy doll Angie. Easily some of the best voice work in the entire game.
Thought the exact same thing
Her voice work made Angie much less creepy for me. I found her to be oddly adorable.
I wonder if she is VA for spinel from Steven universe's movie
Claudia can't be Donna's mother, cause she was 9 when died
Exactlyyyy
He probably meant Donna's daughter.
You are right, no way claudia is her mom, claudia is her grandmother
@@rayman7596 yes
Maybe her sister 🤔
that first narrator was supposed to be the gardener, and you will be able to fight him once you retrieve Claudia's missing part of her tombstone.
You sure he’s the Gardner? That’s pretty cool
You sure that grave keeper was the Gardener? Maybe in the past but with how things are in this messed up hidden village is, I'm more close to believing that but won't the guy be glad that the missing slab is back?
@@VideoGameSophistry It's not confirmed yet, but those were the speculations. Once you get back from the grave he'll be greeting you before you'd be able to fix the tombstone, as if he's protecting it.
@@articusramos808 He'll show up once you have the slab, before being able to fix the tombstone.
That's my head canon too, it makes too much sense for the transformed garden keeper to guard Claudia Benevento's grave judging by how much he cared for them
(Edited bcs it hardly made sense lol)
cant wait for heisenberg, he is by far the most "normal" looking one of all of them
Yep, besides the fact he went *Transformers in the sky* mode at the end xd
Man, I wanted Ethan to fight Heisenberg with just his hammer and magneto power in addition to the transformer form. Same goes for Lady D.
his fight was quite fun, regardless of the micheal bay shit, it was still cool
Heisenberg would be a much better boss without getting into transformer mode. It is kinda lame and unnecessary in my opinion. His normal look is much much better
But the most powerful lord.
Y'know it's weird that she doesn't have a "core" unlike the rest of the lords, you just have angie...like, where's donna's crystal?
Might be because of Miranda's notes and how Donna sort of weakened her cadou by splitting it into several of her dolls
Maybe because she was the only one not to mutate into a horrendous monster
@@jeremiahcrain7023 right before angie is stabbed the last time you can see angie trying to mutate into that monster form. She can transform, she just didn't get the chance, so that wouldn't quite make sense.
@@D7STOPIAN I'm not saying she can't transform just that she's the only one who didn't. The crystals are probably created when the Lord's our their allies mutate but she didn't so she couldn't create a crystal.
@@jeremiahcrain7023 I guess that makes sense.
Donna probably could’ve killed Ethan during the boss fight by just stabbing him herself while he was blindly looking fit Angie. Might be interesting to see what was happening during the fight outside the hallucination. Like was Donna really unable to hide from Ethan?
She had killer dolls too. The dolls with knives were said hold cadou parasites so that she could control them from a distance. She could have killed himat anytime but she wanted to play game rather than strategically kill him like a logical human. Then again, all the other villains except Moreau just threw Ethan away and gave him a chance to live rather than just straight up kill him.
@@jvjv8093 if she was logical, she gives up the flask because what happened at that castle would send a message to the other remaining lords. Killing a dragon vampire lady should've been enough to convince anyone to give up the flasks.
Suicide by Ethan?
She knew that Miranda had no further use for her.
Honestly irl ethan wouldn’t make it past the Dimitrescu castle
@@thetrickster2344Irl, Lady D would be 5' 6" with Lee press-on nails...
Holy shit, I never saw Donna in that first scene. She just kind of... Sinks in to the background.
People is terrified with Donna's part but I really like Donna a lot fr, wish we get more info about her
Yeah same, she’s really underrated...
I really wish they would have added a few more parts with that much fear factor I mean I loved the game but they dumbed down the fear throughout a little to much only scary parts are vary beggining when going through dark woods with bushes moving all around you and the doll house the rest is a little to light on fear
@@SoulshadeVr101 very true.
I know Donna is a villain, but for the most part she seems to actually want to do some good, like with the gardener. But then again that could be what she wanted
At 11:05-11:10, you see Angie “sit” mid air before flying off. This is where Ethan stabbed Donna and she tries to run and hide.
And at 11:25 Angie is like whimpering, that means Donna is in pain after Ethan stabbing her.. I guess
And that laugh though 😂
I ended up keeping Angie, don't know. Maybe carrying her along the ride to kill the very one who used her as a test subject. It's oddly enough to be a nice friend to Rose, if we clean her up a bit, give her a cleaner dress, and then touch her up
She'll look good as new.
Honestly, I would probably do that.
I though I was the only who also did that.
Cringe
@@Observedwalnut75 ok
@@Observedwalnut75 No u
This game is just like the creatures trying to survive Ethan's rage.
I can’t help but love Donna and Angie, their story is sad and makes us understand why she would kill for mother Miranda, it’s because she is now her literal mother and she loves her. Even so we actually never see her hurting anyone, and in the note where someone is talking about how happy they are she’s here makes her seem as if she was legitimately kind, even allowing this person to see glimpses of their deceased wife. I think Donna might be the most loyal to her mother as she gave her so much.
I loved the hallucination part of the lore. When you enter the mansion, its dolls hanging in trees. When you beat Donna and the hallucination stops, you see now that all the dolls in the trees was body all along.
Crazy right
7 deadly sins
Lust: Lady Dimitrescu
Envy: Salvatore Moreau
Sloth: Donna & Angie

I dunno why, but I'm getting the feeling you like Hitman 3
@@ten_vojta4356 I don't know why, but I think baby Yoda believes in Santa Claus.
(Your pfp)
Wow. I never thought of it like that. 😳
I think Heisenberg is more fitting for Pride, since he want to kill Miranda, because she robbed his "dignity". And Miranda, not able to move on, sacrifices everything and everyone to get her daughter back, Greed.
I'd say Donna is more of an Envy due to her wanting to be the daughter instead and Morau as the Sloth caz he showed sloth like features during the game like staring at the tv
Okay but what if that though Donna can cause hallucinations, she can't control them. Imagine how terrifying it would had been for her to see Ethan run full speed after her
Much worse that Ethan wasn't holding any scissors after his hallucinations ended. He probably beatened her up so badly with his bare hands before she died.
I’m still confused if Angie is saying what Donna is thinking or if Angie is like a separate personality. Donna seems scared and timid whereas Angie is loud intentionally antagonizes Ethan but just lets him stab Donna without much of a fight
Im pretty sure that Donna is too afraid to speak to others through her own body so she uses angie as a way to speak to people
@@goldenserpent8514 true but angie seems so much different than Donna. Donna seems kind while Angie is sadistic
@@isaiahthomas6744 it's just like the difference between you in real life and you on an anonymous account on the internet.
@@isaiahthomas6744 thats because donna is too scared to say what she wants but she feels safe to do whatever she wants through angie
Maybe she uses Angie as mask in a sense? Donna seems pretty shy and quiet, so she uses Angie as a way communicate to others. Maybe Angie is more idealize version of Donna, or maybe it's more of a outlet for Donna? Not sure.
Since Angie is kind of like a child, she makes her boss fight like playing hide and seek.
When you realise that, out of all major characters, Donna had the highest chance of getting ethan killed...
I'm gonna be honest. I felt bad killing the four lords. And after learning more about their lore and back story, I feel even worse about it.
It kinda puts in perspective that Donna was trying to kill us to truly protect herself, not because she was evil. She was partly evil and that’s because she was manipulated by Miranda
VGS: Donna and Angie are the first lords he meets.
Me: Who’s gonna tell him about Heisenberg?
That was my first thought 😂 heisenberg was the one who captured him
And hell, if Heisenberg doesn't count, there's also Lady Dimitrescu
The Beneviento House was honestly the level that scared me the most. Hell when it was time for me to meet that...fetus thing, I literally had to turn off my PS5 to calm my nerves a bit.
Heck I told myself that if I had the option of dealing with killer dolls or werewolfs....I would take the wolfs.
is it me or is the voice acting in thus game some if the best ive ever seen
Agreed
It's amazing how far It's come from the original RE. Lol.
Is she also the voice of Eveline?
@@SingNa1 no, Donna Beneviento is voiced and acted by Andi Norris, and Eveline is voiced by Paula Rhodes. They sound quite similar though.
@@RedQueen051 oh i saw from imdb angie and donna are voiced by different actresses
When you realize that the images of Mia holding Rose during Ethan's hallucination was actually Donna holding Angie. I actually didn't enjoy killing Donna, she was hurt and beautiful. RIP
When the white light goes away when you kill Angie, you can't see scissors on Ethan's hand. You also cannot see stab wounds on her head. Maybe he was punching her or bashing her head on the floor. This feels more reasonable as a stab to your head will most likely kill you, considering the scissors it went through Angie's head. Just maybe.
no she had part of the cadou parasite mother miranda gave her that made her survived some attacks but since she shared it with some of her dolls she's not that bulky as the other lords (actually not bulky at all)
That actually sounds more dark 😰
Even without all of this detail, I felt bad for Donna because it seemed she was in a position she didn't really want to be in. Being alone is one thing, but being lonely is another
I find it so difficult to see Donna's scar honestly, even when I've googled images of her, I cannot see anything? I even think she's pretty.
Please note: I mean her original scar before the infection causes it to mutate.
@@SleepyKwee Its mentioned that Donna didn't like the scar, so its likely shed get any photos and pictures of her changed so that it's not visible, or perhaps the scar itself was not originally on the front of her face, but rather the side and the affected area enlarged once it mutated.
NGL Ethan is the true horror monster of this game
Nah.. It's all about perspective
Nah.. It's all about perspective
I'm built different bro what do you expect
Ethan kills in self defense & doesn't carry out sick experiments.
He still has the moral high ground here. Mercy killings & all that...
@@rickmortyson4861 I'm a grown man and Im built different so I'd watch your mouth if I were you
Its so sad at the fact that ethan is chasing donna even tho donna wasnt chasing him.
She was, just through her dolls
Yeah but i mean if you don't find Angie (or donna) in time her dolls will kill you so she is as much evil as other lords
I do have to say seeing Donna leaning to get Angie to sit on her lap is kinda cute in a creepy way
The Beneviento house was _terrifying._ The Dimitrescu castle was intimidating (for me), to be sure, and had its creepy parts, but there was a kind of a adrenaline rush to it, trashing such a grand place to get items and dodging Lady D hunting you down (which admittedly was too easy and made me wish was more terrifying). Donna's house, on the other hand, was _full_ creepy. Creepy and eerie, it encapsulated that slow-burn dread of horror, the total uncertainty of what you might see when you turn the corner and look to the end of the hall. Going there straight after the castle it also feels claustrophobic. It's a _nice_ house, objectively speaking (at one point when I entered the master bedroom I legit thought to myself "ohhh I wouldn't mind living here if this wasn't a horror story"), but the whiteish-grayish walls, the total quiet, the dimness and shadowed corners, and the lack of shiny things to gawk at just contributed to the overwhelming eeriness of the level. I dreaded every door I went through and every turn I made. The devs did a good job at crafting the aesthetics and vibes of each location, and Donna Beneviento's house is a testament to it.
The gift that she got from Miranda that is mentioned in the notebook is the "Cadou" parasite, as "Cadou" means "gift" in Romanian and it gave her and the other house lord's superpowers. I'm also pretty sure it is the only time that the "Cadou" is translated in English on a notebook to say gift or is basically mentioned as a gift, which is the hidden meaning of that word.
Same as cadeau in French, so I recognized it.
Gonna go to bed for finals tomorrow
VGS uploads about resident evil: sleep can wait
haha me too its 2 am
Good luck!
You have got this! Well done and good luck!
1:37 ngl, that’s pretty adorable.
Angie’s little wave at Ethan when they first meet is adorable
I find it disturbing that it's actually Donna herself running around the house playing hide and seek from you.
She needs a hug
Saddest, scariest part of the game.
Claudia Beneviento died at the age of 10 years old, allegedly she must be her little sister.
Or daughter that we didn't know about
Yep, surprised VGS didn't pick up on that and it's the element of the story I'm most intrigued by as there's so little info on Claudia. Hope that VGS does a follow up
@@alexblack4048 I guess it's possible, but it seems more likely that Donna who has a childlike character wouldn't have a daughter- for one thing she was a complete recluse even before the cadou experiment and secondly she appears to want to stay as a child herself as she laments the fact that Miranda's "motherly" attention has rejected her for Rose
@@slimjimpui ok that makes sense yes, but why would she so heavily decorate Claudia's grave specifically? Unless it was made by the parents, so maybe Claudia was her sister. What if they were twins or something? Cuz i feel like Donna is at least in her 20s or early 30s, i feel like she's the youngest of the lords. Alcina is physically 44 but she's way older because she was infected in the 1950s and she doesn't age because she has regen abilities, Heisenberg looks to be in his 40s but he was kidnapped as a child so I think he does age and Alcina calls him little brother. If Claudia was her sister that would mean Donna is literally in her 20s or early to mid 30s if she was born somewhere between the ages indicated on Claudia's grave stone that are 1987-1996, the games story happens in 2020/2021. But the grave being so decorated makes no much sense to me, why is it surrounded by other gravestones?
@@alexblack4048 In the gardener's notes; it's remarked that Donna gave him the infamous yellow flower(that induces hallucinations) to plant in the garden but it was the gardener who decided to plant them specifically by "Miss Claudia's grave" Maybe the plant itself could be very invasive. As for why there are graves surrounding each other- this is characteristic of high status families in parts of Europe. Where I live in England there's a neighbouring village where a rich family have their own private gravesite and all the gravestones are in one little garden very close to each other
I have a fear of dolls, and a giant baby monster, and a mysterious mansion in the woods, and the dark, being drugged and haunted wells so um yeah I shit my pants while playing this part
Its like each lord is a part resident evil 8, donna is the scary part, the fish guy is the gross part, heisenberg is the combat part and demitrescu is the tutorial, that's how i saw the game
There should be a buyable movie in the bonus section of the game, after completing the game, to watch from Donna’s POV while Ethan runs through the house trying to stab her.
Great idea
@@liawatson5789 Maybe there’ll be a dlc for each of the 4 lords, or maybe one for how Mia got removed and replaced without Ethan knowing. Also Miranda’s a god in my opinion considering her position of power.
When Ethan's hallucination ended, he wasn't holding any scissors. Imagine if he was actually beating Donna up with his bare hands...disturbing for a DLC honestly.
I fell in love with this character. Perhaps it was when I saw her portrait of maybe when I heard her speak but thinking about it everything revolving around her was just so cool and was honestly the best part of the game. Such a shame we couldn't see more of her
Same bro i feel bad asf for killing her
Donna Beneviento is absolutely my favorite. Her confrontation to her is absolutely chilling. Yet her hyper personality as Angie only cements my adoration for her!
The Beneviento House was the scariest section I've ever played in any Resident Evil game. If there was any way I could describe how fucked up Beneviento was, it would be a massive understatement. And I won't even go into details on the Baby and the Dolls. Gotta give Capcom credit for almost making me sleepless.
Bela,Daniela & Cassandra: Corpses controlled by flies
Alcina D.: Giant Vampire
Moreau: Fish-like suffering man
Miranda: Satan
Ethan: Guy with trauma
Heisenberg: Bob the builder but horror
Donna: Kid who needs a hug.
It's alright, Donna. You can finally be together with your parents and Claudia again.
Yeah... she's probably gonna go to h3ll for all the murders.
CAPCOM should win an award just for the Beneviento Section alone. So perfectly crafted with so many Psychological undertones. Absolute perfection.
I wish we saw more of Donna just because she's an interesting character.
The power of Donna is literally making you high
I honestly think its so sad that this had to happen, Like if it wasnt for the fact that Donna is trying to kill you you'd feel really guilty after stabbing angie.
She was just a kid that wanted to play with her doll and help others.
The actual monster among monsters is Ethan Winters, he killed each one of them in the group/family, twice
He killed in self-defence and he didn't carry out sick experiments on others. He has the higher moral ground.
Have to say, Donna Beneviento is best girl in the entire series of Resident Evil.
Best antagonist, gonna be honest when you see her face she is actually quite cute and not super sexualized like "cough" "cough" someone else.
She probably has one of the most tragic backstories in RE as villains go other than like the Wesker children.
Donna is definitely the best female antagonist in RE.
4:53
Is this why she's sitting the closest to Miranda when we first see her?
No, I think it’s because she just didn’t want to be all up in the action of the argument. All of the lords are adopted in a way, purely because of Miranda’s goal to find a vessel. However, I think Donna was under the impression that she actually meant something to Miranda, so you might be right.
I am. So excited for heisenberg. This series is making me feel more and more for the characters. Yes, they’ve done bad, but you get connections to them once you know their stories. While I doubt anyone could ‘fix’ them with their company, I do wish they had proper friends. They deserve better. Each of them.
"Claudia Benevento is believed to be Donna's mother"
Claudia's grave; 1987-1996
She would have been nine years old 💀
Bruh, the top comment is the guy who made the video, admitting his mistake and correcting it.
You made fun of his lack of attention to detail, with your own disregard for detail lmao
@@Sosozanyway Donna’s sister died in the 1950’s, unless there was another child that wasn’t mentioned in the game, that was definitely not her sister.
“He’s awaaaaakkkkeeee!”
“...Shut the f*ck up!” 😂
I think she knew her duty when she said "I WONT LET YOU LEAVE" to Ethan.
I really feel bad for the gardener, he was happy for her because she was enjoying her life for once and yet he disappears.
Did she not do something to the gardener? Or am I mistaken? I thought in a note he goes to her house, I assumed she killed him.
@@YoongisUnlitCigarette but she and the gardener had a good friendship or perhaps good exchaging conversation.. if that would be the case then thass creepy asf. 😣😢
@@lilbaddie4502 If I’m not mistaken she invites him to her house to, “see the rest of his family” and you never see him again. All his family is dead. I could absolutely be wrong though.
@@YoongisUnlitCigarette when i say disappears, i meant she probably killed him. Sorry for the confusion
@@milkyyy4443 You’re fine! It doesn’t take much to confuse me to be honest. To add on to your original comment though, I’m not sure if she was fully aware of what she was doing at first. She was abandoned and still pretty childlike as an adult. I want to believe she thought she was doing something good.
Claudia was more than likely her daughter, probably with the gardener if I'm honest since Donna has almost a motherly concern about Rose's wellbeing. I'm sure she would've discreetly helped Ethan ( if she wasn't already with her hallucinations ) find her.
This was the most stressful part of the game. It wasn’t that difficult but it CREEPED ME TF OUT.
I didn’t realize you could pick up Angie and sell her. After I killed her I just ran away😂
It's easy to miss, but when you first enter House Beneventio there are some static shadows that look like adult humans. Maybe this is a remnant of the ghost family concept?
I love the Duke saying “Porcelain dolls are so popular right now”... I always think about it as a Conjuring- reference. I mean the franchise has 3 movies just about Anabelle. (Still not as creeps as the real life version if you ask me...)
I just realized that Angie and Donna share the same name as the owners of the real Annabelle doll
