    It’s really a tragedy that Sony has abandoned awesome IPs like this. These games deserve a remake or at least just a rereleased collection. Good video.

      It's obvious insomniac games didn't care much about the series after 2. The game had a lot lore you could find in hidden files.. Insomniac could of used the lore in 3, but through it all out the window for generic hero story and lame MP.
      It's like they were trying to wrap the story to move on.

      ​@Bluetooth resistance 3 was amazing, good story compared to the story, good pacing, the head of insomniac ceo even said that at the time they were considering a resistance 4, but they decided that it would be the end of the series

    Just a few things i'd like to add:
    1. Alot of Resistance 2's creatures were designed during Fall of Mans development.
    (Props to Rodrigo Ribeiro for the amazing concept art)
    2. The Marauder could be considered the Chimeras equivalent to the Locust Brumaks.
    3. Good video!

    The spinners are released in swarms. Not has many but still enough to overwhelm. Once they bite a human, the victim is paralyzed and the spinners cocoon them. The Chimera do have a way of processing the cocooned humans but very different from the first game. We learn a bit of this in the book 'A Hole in the Sky'.

    • @Victor-py9gt
      @Victor-py9gt Рік тому +2

      Grims are not used for soldiers and are at a very low level in the chimeran hive mind until the events of RE3. The chimera also have a way of creating different strains via the spinners, most likely in more controlled areas so they can make sure they get the preferred ones and not grims.

    @raoul9016 9 місяців тому

    So the chimera stopped converting humans into hybrids and started making the grim instead with the spinners. Conversion centers became obsolete and they probably had enough soldier variants. Maybe they were running low on material resources for armor, weapons, vehicles, cooling apparatus and other equipment, so they made the spinners to still wipe out humans efficiently and low resource
