A buddy and I made a joke that the RE4 Merchant was actually Chris in disguise to butter up Leon and eventually make him go for Claire. That's why you couldn't upgrade Ada's weapons in the Separate Ways campaign.
the ashfords twins are SO MEMORABLE because they are the type of villains you LITERALLY WANNA KICK IN THE ASS if given the chance! They're so comedically funny especially their laughs LMAO
Your the first person I've heard point out that Donna was really beautiful before the cadou mark over her face. Her character model looked REALLY good, the actress that they used for her is GORGEOUS, so checks out haha.
"Idk why everyone is so crazy about hunk" It's pretty simple actually, just go back to RE2 when it came out... Who has more chances of surviving the incident? 1- A rookie cop on his first day on the job? 2- The young sister of the main character of the previous game removing the obvious plot armor she had. Or 3- The almost perfect soldier trained for the worst type of missions (I dare to say he has more training that all the ubcs of RE3), who priorities the mission over anything else. So, yeah I think just for that hunk has a really big fan base, he is the only character that actually has an opportunity to survive on any RE game.
I don’t see how having the highest chance of survival is relevant to the character’s popularity. He’s a safe choice, for some players, so I’ve always thought Hunk basically just a really cool “action figure” type character. M
@@jordanharrison1113 Well I think it goes hand on hand, as you say, he is like a cool action figure character so when you play as him in RE2 you feel that you actually can survive/beat the game and be a badass because he has that background of training and focus, instead of just being the sister of one of the main characters.
Carlos is my favorite character since RE3 back in the end 90's. Now, after the RE3 Remake he just got even better, I was really hoping for a full length solo campaign even if it was a paid DLC
Man, Ashley gets no love. She's honestly one of the best escort missions you could create, purely on how they designed her AI to react to your actions.
I think Ashley as a character was actually ok. I mean, she was a sheltered rich kid who was self-aware of her status but also humble about how helpless she was. At least she had character, compared to MANY others in the RE universe who were just empty archetypes. Not to mention that when RE4 came out, Ashley was obviously meant to represent a grown up Sherry Birkin- to the extent that many of us expected her to secretly be Sherry before the game was released.
I don't think we'll ever see Billy again, Rebecca left him alone in a forest full of bio weapons where the nearest city was overrun with monsters then nuked like 3 day later. Odds are Billy died in the forest right after he was left there.
2:12 - Imagine what would have happened if Brad did stay in the first game. Two options: - they would've returned to the base without visiting the mansion and WITHOUT finding Rebecca; - Whesker would've taken more control in killing S.T.A.R.S. members. According to canon there is no one of A-squad who died because of Brad - even one B-squad member who is saved thanks to him. So...
Honestly Ashley Graham will always be my favorite just because it was so intense having to care for her while your being chased by el Gigante or some boss
I would love to see Steve come back. He's an underrated character and everything he goes though warrants how he acts. Having wesker say that he could come back at the end of cv was probably just a jab at claire but it would be nice for capcom to bring him back.
IIRC He was supposed to come back, but the writer who wrote CV - though he had a whole storyline for the next game or two - died without telling anyone about it. So out of respect, they proceeded with RE4's Leon-based storyline and wrote around that.
I believe Brad is undeservedly hated. If your dropping troops on the ground it’s the job of the pilot to protect the aircraft. The troops that are dropped off are trained and armed to survive on the ground if it gets hot. He also stayed to hover the mansion and arkley forest even at the point were fuel was dangerously low. He saved the the lives of the remaining stars members by dropping the rocket launcher and picking them up. In real life he would have been considered a hero not a coward. Just an ex soldiers opinion.
They weren't very far from the coptor and the danger appeared to be rabid dogs, in that situation you dont take off and fly away lol, he was called 'chickenheart' for a reason
You are not able to tell how far away they are from the chopper from the cutscene in the first game. The minute he was to hear gunfire that’s his que to take to the air. Bare in mind they had just found a destroyed helicopter of bravo team. The did a poor job of proving he was a chicken. To me that was a poorly written character profile in the manual of the first game. I liked how they gave him a more respectable character in the remake. He even went out his way to warn and help Jill from nemesis.

Code Veronica was hard as hell, I used the infinite herb cheat to get through. I definitely wouldn’t have gotten through otherwise. I don’t think it was a bad game. Just really difficult. I think it deserves a remake like 2 and 3. One where I can play it without cheats ._.
@therabidraccoon I respect your opinion but I did like the Re2 remake (I haven’t played the 3rd yet so idk about that one). At least you can change it to hard so if you are someone who likes playing harder games.
After all my hard work I had to see Steve die who was a nice guy going through rough childhood. He deserved a better voice actor and deserved to come back.
@@TheRabidRaccoon Having liked both the original RE 2 and the remake I think the remake was one of the best and personally, probably the best remake out of all the RE remakes released today. As for the difficulty I think Mafia remake has it figured out, there's a separate difficulty when choosing called "classic", which is orientated to the original it being pretty difficult. They should do the same with Code Veronica, change the difficulty around for the new fans and add a "Classic" or "Original" difficulty for the hardcore and fans of the original games. That would satisfy both sides.
I'm surprised at how much I agreed with you on this list. Probably my only dissatisfaction was with Rebecca and Ethan but other than that a very enjoyable list. Also props to you for adding Billy Coen high on that list, truly would love to see him and Carlos back. ☺
Except HUNK actually completed his mission, didn't get taken out in a wussy way and was competent. HUNK was competent BEFORE the remake. Boba Fett HAD to be made competent.
Very solid tier list dude! Loved it at the beginning where you automatically placed 4 of the legendary characters in SSS. Your tier lists are pushing me to do my own soon and I love hearing your opinions.
20:46 they are from Resodent Evil: Marhawa desire comics, and yes, they're canon. They introduced a more pain of Chris Redfield and more of Piers Nivans. IMO they are reaaallyy cool!
@@InkRibbon True, that game was a loud of sh*t, but it at least hinted at a Wesker return. You should consider trying out the RE7 DLC if you get the chance man, it is realy good and concludes the Baker storyline.
You hit the nail on Steve. I actually paused your video before you placed him and went into a rant about how awesome Steve really was and changed my daughter's view on him...only to have you make every point I did and some. :) Code Veronica is my favorite RE game and that will probably never change. I may have played 4 the most out of all of them, with Village not far behind, but nothing holds a candle to it. I may be just a SMIDGE biased, as it was my first RE game and the first one I beat, but still...it still holds up today. How amazing CV is will always be a hill worthy of dying on.
I think Carla is a good tragic character, in that basically her husband put her down a crappy path and in her quest for vengeance she bites off more than she can chew. She goes after everything he loved (including Ada). Honestly, I think it's a real awesome character moment when Ada says basically, "if you had came to me, I would have helped you take out Simmons." It's very rare to see a personal side of Ada, but Carla gave that to us. And for that alone, I like her. Maybe I just love Ada too much haha
I agreed with almost everything you said, but Ethan was under valued here. His character in resident evil 7 was supposed to be the most average guy you can think of. He was a boring white guy who worked in IT. A guy who had 0 training before this point goes in and despite being terrified most of the way through, he still manages to survive and save mia. Ethan's a badass who in my opinion deserves the SSS.
There weren't AS MANY hot takes in this as I thought there would be. The second you put Billy at the top I knew this would be an agreeable tier list! Thank you for defending Code Veronica.
Just want to say that I got COVID and am quarantining for 10 days. Your channel is making things a lot better for me right now. Binging all your videos, I love the live streams.
The reason why so many people love HUNK is because like you said, we know very little about him and that’s what makes him so interesting. Also because he’s just a badass that’s been in the background of the series.
I noticed Rachel Foley was missing, where would you place her? You could argue she was a minor supporting character, but she had impact when Revelations originally came out, and her boss fight was terrifying.
I would have put Rebecca one tier under Leno and Chris and them. And yet billy it’s 4 tier higher then Rebecca. Resident evil shows that even a Beautiful Shy/nervous women can be strong.
@@mysmallnoman she kinda is don’t forget in RE zero she is a new recruit in S.T.A.R. She Beautiful and shy/nervous and also kinda a scary cat. She not like Jill or Claire,Ada,sheva and Helena who is hot and bad ass in their own way and will survive without a partner. We all know Rebecca won’t even make out of zero without billy help is Because she not a to put it a cop/soldier like the rest of the women’s. It’s just my opinion.
The old man you have in the bottom is Jack Bakers brother he has a DLC in 7. I truly hope one day they remaster Code Veronica. Hopefully you'll do a facts on Heisenberg in the near future. I'm pretty sure Leon and Claire were looking at each other like they wanted to hook up lol.
@@GXTHIE people seem to forget she survived RE0, weakened Plant 42 to save Chris, and initiated the self-destruct to wipe out the Spencer Mansion. I'd say she deserves more recognition. And people give her shit for "being helpless" when facing a Hunter. Man, those nasties can take you down fast if you're not careful and girl only has a handgun.
My favourite thing about Wesker is that through the series his voice became more and more british because the other voice actors would try to replicate the previous one, just a funny little detail I remember finding out Also completely agree with your opinion on code veronica and Steve.
also that old man that you put in "IDK" category at 12:55 is that old guy from "Resident Evil Revelations 2" - the dude that literally puts his shotgun on Moira's head xD the old Russian guy that teached Moira how to survive in the wild against these monsters without even knowing what those monsters even are. xD
Natalia from Revelations 2 is a great character. A young brave girl, lost her parents and with the bitchy Alex wesker bitching trying to to snatch her body. A great character with potential to develop in future games either going the Alex Wesker villian route or Natalia growing up and becoming like a Sherry character with physic abilities makes her awesome
Damn did Rebecca so dirty haha but oh well she's always be my favorite protagonist in the resident evil games but now I'm gonna fast forward to see where he puts ada then I'm out lmao
15:50 Heisenberg and Nikolai are voiced by the person Ironically! 16:40 I also imagine they will reused Mother Miranda's face for Ashley in RE4 Remake!
I loved Carla. She succeeded where Wesker didn't: launching virus missiles and leveling an entire city. Up to her mutation and last-ditch attempt to kill Ada, Carla was never scared or worried, having a backup plan for everything, including her own death. Derek Simmons might not have been the main villain of RE6, but he's the one to blame for turning Carla into an Ada clone to satisfy his obsession. Eveline is also an interesting villain in that she encompasses a lot of traits from others before her in the series. With more of her backstory revealed in Village, it makes sense that she would be like them because her mom Miranda started everything. Unlike most villains, however, Eveline is obliviously evil than a card-carrying villain; she wants a family, but genuinely has no idea how wrong her methods are in getting one. While Eveline is an expy, she pulls more from Alma Wade (and by extension, Sadako Yamamura/Samara Morgan), which also makes sense because F.E.A.R. writer Richard Pearsey worked on RE7. Eveline was reborn as Rosemary, meaning she got her wish for a family after all. The vampire girls can be told apart from their chokers. Bela wears a red gem, Cassandra wears a yellow gem, and Daniela wears a green gem. Miranda did appear a lot in Village. She disguised herself as Mia at the beginning, and just like Eveline she used an old hag appearance to throw off suspicion. Eveline's obsession with family, lack of understanding of love, and seeing family members as expendable? It came from Miranda.
She didn't succeed where Wesker couldn't, Wesker was gonna infect the entire world which is the most ambitious plan in all of Resident Evil Carla was a throw away character please never compare her to the GOAT because anyone can infect a city.
Carla did too succeed. Wesker's Uroboros missiles didn't hit anything, whereas Carla's C-Virus missiles did. Where Wesker took several games to become an omnicidal maniac, Carla only had to take one. Carla was honest in her ambition to destroy the world with the C-Virus; for how much Wesker ranted about saving humanity with evolution, he never accounted for the possibility that Uroboros would just kill everyone including himself. Also, she of all people rightfully call out Chris' stupidity on letting a rookie keep watch on her and sending his entire team against Iluzija without any real strategy. Carla could have gotten away with her crimes if she hadn't made Ada get involved, whether as a cry for help or a frame-up. She even gave Simmons, the man who ruined her life as well as many others', what he deserved by transforming him into the monster he always was.
@@pinkduskstone1543 It took one game because A. she was a throw away character and B . Weskers plan was a 1000 times the scope and had the legendary Chris on his heels plus the entire BSAA and the government looking into him no one knew who the hell Carla was so they had barely any reason to care about her O and remember the stupidity of Leon when he kept letting Ada and Carla kick him in the balls lol Carla was a crap character that no one cared about while Wesker is hailed as not only the best Resident evil villain but one of the best villains in gaming period not my fault Carla lacked any personality and fans didn't care about her 8).
“Helena is really just Angela copied and pasted.” I guess they were aware of that and decided to get Laura Bailey to voice both of them lol, great performance by her, just wish Helena’s writing was better. Also glad Moira was put pretty high, I found her fun plus her character arc and development were really good for a side game (low key, she had more development in that one game than some of the main characters have gotten in over a decade). I would definitely like to see her come back.
Kinda sad that Rachel Foley didnt make the list, although a minor character in Revelations who lived for about 2 minutes. She really made an impact on me especially because she does show up a lot throughout the game. Maybe in a monster ranked video you can add Rachel Ooze :)
When I grew up and Playstation first came out, I never knew it could change gaming like it did. I remember going to my Video Store and renting games, I renting Resident Evil. I only had 2 Days on the rental and was blown away with the game. For me they just got better and better, I even think Resident Evil Code Veronica is up there with the very best. Also Resident Evil 0 was a very underatted game and I have no idea why so low on the list. It was just like playing the old school Resident Evil games, the story was good and it was a very difficult game to complete. Overall when you consider how long the franchise has run for, they have done an unbelievable job, making so many classic games. I was blown away with the remakes and was surprised how good 7 was. Then we got Village and Wow, I was not expecting it to be so good. That game is one of the best, just slightly being beaten by 4. You have to seperate certain titles, with the Survival Horror and the Action based game. Resident Evil 1,2,3, Zero and Code Veronica were classic Resident Evil Survival Horror. Where you did puzzles, the atmosphere, Zombies and the story based on the same events, Racoon City and the Mansion. Then you got, Action with some of the original characters in a different enviroment. Which they had to do because there wasn't much more they could do based around the other games and stories. I really enjoyed Revelations 1 and 2, I felt they were a good mixture of both action and horror. Then of course we got the best game ever, Resident Evil 4, which was so much more different, than what we had come to expect from Resident Evil. Theres nothing bad to say about that game, Capcom were very brave to go in a different direction. It worked and they changed gaming forever, then Resident Evil 5 came along. For me Resident Evil 5, was a poor version of Resident Evil 4. They sort of went with what they did in 4 and changed it in ways that wasn't good. I think they were caught in two minds what to do with that game, I enjoyed it but wouldn't say it was up there with the best. I couldn't make my mind up with 6, I played it through a couple of times and sort of understood what they did. They tried to appeal to Survival Horror Fans with the Leon and Ada Stories. Then to the fast action packed fans of Resident Evil 4 and 5, whith Chris and Jake. Then changed it up a bit and made the stories all blend in, I enjoyed the Leon and Ada Stories. It reminder me of the old style games, I just thought Resident Evil should be survival Horror. It was brilliant what they did with 4, like I said it needed changing up. I just felt doing it with 5 and some of 6 was too much. In the Chris and espicially Jakes story it was like playing Call Of Duty. So when they decided to go back to Survival Horror with 7, that was the correct time to do it. I don't think another Action Packed game would of worked and maybe could of seen sales decline. So after 7 and getting the remakes of 2 and 3, it was so good to go back to the survival horror days. Then when they did Village, they mixed in the Survival Horror and Action perfectly and showed it can work if done properly. They used was was perfect about 4 and mixed in other stuff in earlier games and it worked. I think going forward, they should maybe do a Revelations 3 and see whats happened to Jill. Maybe mix in other main characters with stories about what they have been doing. I hope they do a Code Veronica Remake, I believe if done correctly, that would be amazing. Resident Evil 9 is going to have a hard job of living up to Village, saying that, I did say that about 8 living up to 7. Which it did and was in my opinion better, so again I think Capcom have done amazingly well to still be producing these games. When I think of my other classic Survivor Horror games, the Silent Hill games. They fell away and didn't make anymore, which at the time were massive selling games. Maybe there was nowhere else to go with them, hopefully they look at the Resident Evil Remakes and the Company takes note. Them games remade today, would still sell a huge amounts of games.
nice to see someone who gives Sheva a fair chance to shine. Actually i don´t really unterstand why people hating her so much, mostly for the AI. But it is the partner AI. Would be ice to had her in Vendetta, in a wedding dress. xD Also the same to Jake. Very underrated character. He as a Nero feeling from Devil May cry, but i know that you want to check that franchise out. And so i won´t spoil you anything. Don´t worry, i was actually excited to play Code Veronica. Mostly for the reason it was banned together with RE2 in germany. I literaly had to make a Austria PSN account to play the HD Version on my PS3. Agreed, with the Carla and Simmons thing. It literaly feels odd, that someone clones a asian spy, and it feels kinda out of place. And to Helena = Angela... they even share the same VA: Laura Bailey. Also, to Jessica... Well mostly she shares the same VA like Lightning from FFXIII. I want her to come back as well.
Ethan was absolutely everyman, I guess so you could insert yourself into the story easier. It clicked for me so well in RE8 that his sacrifice had me with tears running down the cheeks. But I also have to agree he is very differently written from whole cast. Like I said he is generic by design, at least I think that was Capcom intent.
I think a interesting list to see would be to separate each character into different game. Rank each Chris, Jill, Leon, Clear, etc by each game. Not sure how comprehensive the list should be but for some odd reason, RE series hates bring back old character so shouldn't to hard.
A buddy and I made a joke that the RE4 Merchant was actually Chris in disguise to butter up Leon and eventually make him go for Claire. That's why you couldn't upgrade Ada's weapons in the Separate Ways campaign.
Dude the merchant deserved a higher rank...
I like Sheva, the fact that she has kinda glitchy IA in RE5 doesn't make her a bad character.

Got nervous when you nearly gave Ashley that rating lol.
It's too bad about Ethan. Just when his character was finally starting to get interesting, Capcom killed him off.
They did the same with Piers...
The Voice actor of Ethan is a legend tho
For me Ethan from RE8 his the best character in RE history
Ahem (killed him off for now...)
Idk I've just heard people talking and a bunch of dudes saying hes coming back in 1 way or another
yea, if he won't be in re9, I'll never play re again.
Krauser is given more personality in The Darkside Chronicles, in the story it shares with Leon, there we know how they met and why it hates Leon
Ada is such a mysterious character, you can never tell what's side she is on. She's my favourite!
Ada is not taking sides with anyone. Ada is on her own side.
She's a morally grey Character done right
Id actually go crazy for her irl lmao
I freaking love Ada so much it might be unhealthy 😂
Ada = ultimate waifu ❤️❤️❤️
"He's not even old enough to, watch porn... and then he dies!" Haha
Also Donna>Alcina
"Idk why everyone is so crazy about hunk"
It's pretty simple actually, just go back to RE2 when it came out... Who has more chances of surviving the incident?
1- A rookie cop on his first day on the job?
2- The young sister of the main character of the previous game removing the obvious plot armor she had.
Or
3- The almost perfect soldier trained for the worst type of missions (I dare to say he has more training that all the ubcs of RE3), who priorities the mission over anything else.
So, yeah I think just for that hunk has a really big fan base, he is the only character that actually has an opportunity to survive on any RE game.
Also re4 neck snap

I don’t see how having the highest chance of survival is relevant to the character’s popularity. He’s a safe choice, for some players, so I’ve always thought Hunk basically just a really cool “action figure” type character.

Truly a man of culture!
Damn Kai, we have the same taste. While playing RE Village, that's all I would say about Mother Miranda and Beneviento.
Annette always gets the sh*t end of the stick in RE2 1998 and RE2 Remake. Also Hunk is like the Resident Evil Boba Fett from Star Wars.
Except HUNK actually completed his mission, didn't get taken out in a wussy way and was competent.
HUNK was competent BEFORE the remake. Boba Fett HAD to be made competent.
i love that the characters neil newbon plays are both considered as dilfs in the fandom
Very solid tier list dude! Loved it at the beginning where you automatically placed 4 of the legendary characters in SSS. Your tier lists are pushing me to do my own soon and I love hearing your opinions.
All of the character? You mean the depth of Leon’s personality?
20:46 they are from Resodent Evil: Marhawa desire comics, and yes, they're canon. They introduced a more pain of Chris Redfield and more of Piers Nivans.
IMO they are reaaallyy cool!
Whaaaaaat!! You played Umbrella Corpse, but didn't give the RE7 DLC a shot!
I only played UC for like 5 minutes and I regret it 😭
@@InkRibbon True, that game was a loud of sh*t, but it at least hinted at a Wesker return. You should consider trying out the RE7 DLC if you get the chance man, it is realy good and concludes the Baker storyline.
Nice pun between corps and corpse XD.
You hit the nail on Steve. I actually paused your video before you placed him and went into a rant about how awesome Steve really was and changed my daughter's view on him...only to have you make every point I did and some. :)
Code Veronica is my favorite RE game and that will probably never change. I may have played 4 the most out of all of them, with Village not far behind, but nothing holds a candle to it. I may be just a SMIDGE biased, as it was my first RE game and the first one I beat, but still...it still holds up today. How amazing CV is will always be a hill worthy of dying on.
I was gonna say, "as long as Claire is in SSS I'm fine"
22:57 I agree with this take, she deserves SS rank
I think Carla is a good tragic character, in that basically her husband put her down a crappy path and in her quest for vengeance she bites off more than she can chew.
She goes after everything he loved (including Ada).
Honestly, I think it's a real awesome character moment when Ada says basically, "if you had came to me, I would have helped you take out Simmons."
It's very rare to see a personal side of Ada, but Carla gave that to us. And for that alone, I like her. Maybe I just love Ada too much haha
I agreed with almost everything you said, but Ethan was under valued here. His character in resident evil 7 was supposed to be the most average guy you can think of. He was a boring white guy who worked in IT. A guy who had 0 training before this point goes in and despite being terrified most of the way through, he still manages to survive and save mia. Ethan's a badass who in my opinion deserves the SSS.
you are very SUS for knowing that at 3:53
12:59, that was Joe, Jack's brother in The End Of Zoe DLC in RE7
There weren't AS MANY hot takes in this as I thought there would be. The second you put Billy at the top I knew this would be an agreeable tier list!
Thank you for defending Code Veronica.
Billy Coen is one of my favorites in the series
I am so super happy to see that you love sheva!
Just want to say that I got COVID and am quarantining for 10 days. Your channel is making things a lot better for me right now. Binging all your videos, I love the live streams.
Welcome free breather/pureblood.
The reason why so many people love HUNK is because like you said, we know very little about him and that’s what makes him so interesting. Also because he’s just a badass that’s been in the background of the series.
My top 5: Jill, Claire, Leon, Ethan and Carlos
Also love Rebecca, Billy, Sheva, Zoe, Barry and Sherry
And Hunk is like the Boba Fett of Resident Evil
WTF. Claire was supposed to be in Helena's place? GIMME MORE INFO!
Love how you put Nickolai and Heisenberg in the same 'dilf' category.. both voiced by the same man who's also a dilf 👀😍
No Richard? He had more screentime than Brad and was more fleshed out.
Rebecca didn’t even get friend-zoned. She got the “you exist” card. Busted out laughing lol
Lol , She is just cute and that's it
I can’t believe people don’t find Rebecca interesting she’s like the white mage of every dog game
Everybody here argue why Trashley is not S tier.
Me who's just here to find out how Ethan looks like.
“NIVANFIELD” OMG YES
excuse me, theres a lot of WHAT with irons and claire?- wHy
I noticed Rachel Foley was missing, where would you place her? You could argue she was a minor supporting character, but she had impact when Revelations originally came out, and her boss fight was terrifying.
So many S ranked characters. I think the only ones are Leon, Wesker, Barry, and Jill. Ada aight too.
Agreed with everything you said about Steve, I love him. I wish he was still alive... 😔
I would have put Rebecca one tier under Leno and Chris and them. And yet billy it’s 4 tier higher then Rebecca. Resident evil shows that even a Beautiful Shy/nervous women can be strong.
She's not even that " shy " and " helpless " as the fandom portray her
@@mysmallnoman she kinda is don’t forget in RE zero she is a new recruit in S.T.A.R. She Beautiful and shy/nervous and also kinda a scary cat. She not like Jill or Claire,Ada,sheva and Helena who is hot and bad ass in their own way and will survive without a partner. We all know Rebecca won’t even make out of zero without billy help is Because she not a to put it a cop/soldier like the rest of the women’s. It’s just my opinion.
=places irons on the list=
"were not putting monsters on the list"
=irons remains, even though he is a monstrosity=
Love how you put the 4 main characters of the franchise right away 😂 on triple s
The Best character is the merchant in Resident Evil 4. I'll fight anyone on this.
The old man you have in the bottom is Jack Bakers brother he has a DLC in 7. I truly hope one day they remaster Code Veronica. Hopefully you'll do a facts on Heisenberg in the near future. I'm pretty sure Leon and Claire were looking at each other like they wanted to hook up lol.
HUNK is the Boba Fett of the gaming world.
That.... That is the most accurate shit.
Hunk really do be the bounty hunter of Biohazard
*puts Rebecca in B-rank*
me: I see you have chosen... DEATH!
Rebecca Chambers deserve better :( she's so underrated
@@GXTHIE people seem to forget she survived RE0, weakened Plant 42 to save Chris, and initiated the self-destruct to wipe out the Spencer Mansion. I'd say she deserves more recognition. And people give her shit for "being helpless" when facing a Hunter. Man, those nasties can take you down fast if you're not careful and girl only has a handgun.
@@dentedproduct she needs more respect and need to be in more resident evil games too.
My favourite thing about Wesker is that through the series his voice became more and more british because the other voice actors would try to replicate the previous one, just a funny little detail I remember finding out
Also completely agree with your opinion on code veronica and Steve.
also that old man that you put in "IDK" category at 12:55 is that old guy from "Resident Evil Revelations 2" - the dude that literally puts his shotgun on Moira's head xD
the old Russian guy that teached Moira how to survive in the wild against these monsters without even knowing what those monsters even are. xD
Sheva is AMAZING I really hope we get her again.
I think putting Rebecca Chambers that Low is kind of disrespectful
I'm just happy you moved Claire Redfield without hesitation to the number one spot.
You forgot Chris from RE7. I think we can all agree that he can count as a different character.
Natalia from Revelations 2 is a great character. A young brave girl, lost her parents and with the bitchy Alex wesker bitching trying to to snatch her body. A great character with potential to develop in future games either going the Alex Wesker villian route or Natalia growing up and becoming like a Sherry character with physic abilities makes her awesome
Damn did Rebecca so dirty haha but oh well she's always be my favorite protagonist in the resident evil games but now I'm gonna fast forward to see where he puts ada then I'm out lmao
I pointed out your same points on Steve when I played through code Veronica. Thank you
Hunk is one of my favorite characters in resident evil series
Bring back Sheva 2021!!!
Love what you said about Ada and where you've put her. Thumbs uppp hahahah
15:50 Heisenberg and Nikolai are voiced by the person Ironically!
16:40 I also imagine they will reused Mother Miranda's face for Ashley in RE4 Remake!
I loved Carla. She succeeded where Wesker didn't: launching virus missiles and leveling an entire city. Up to her mutation and last-ditch attempt to kill Ada, Carla was never scared or worried, having a backup plan for everything, including her own death. Derek Simmons might not have been the main villain of RE6, but he's the one to blame for turning Carla into an Ada clone to satisfy his obsession.
Eveline is also an interesting villain in that she encompasses a lot of traits from others before her in the series. With more of her backstory revealed in Village, it makes sense that she would be like them because her mom Miranda started everything. Unlike most villains, however, Eveline is obliviously evil than a card-carrying villain; she wants a family, but genuinely has no idea how wrong her methods are in getting one. While Eveline is an expy, she pulls more from Alma Wade (and by extension, Sadako Yamamura/Samara Morgan), which also makes sense because F.E.A.R. writer Richard Pearsey worked on RE7. Eveline was reborn as Rosemary, meaning she got her wish for a family after all.
The vampire girls can be told apart from their chokers. Bela wears a red gem, Cassandra wears a yellow gem, and Daniela wears a green gem.
Miranda did appear a lot in Village. She disguised herself as Mia at the beginning, and just like Eveline she used an old hag appearance to throw off suspicion. Eveline's obsession with family, lack of understanding of love, and seeing family members as expendable? It came from Miranda.
She didn't succeed where Wesker couldn't, Wesker was gonna infect the entire world which is the most ambitious plan in all of Resident Evil Carla was a throw away character please never compare her to the GOAT because anyone can infect a city.
Carla did too succeed. Wesker's Uroboros missiles didn't hit anything, whereas Carla's C-Virus missiles did. Where Wesker took several games to become an omnicidal maniac, Carla only had to take one. Carla was honest in her ambition to destroy the world with the C-Virus; for how much Wesker ranted about saving humanity with evolution, he never accounted for the possibility that Uroboros would just kill everyone including himself. Also, she of all people rightfully call out Chris' stupidity on letting a rookie keep watch on her and sending his entire team against Iluzija without any real strategy. Carla could have gotten away with her crimes if she hadn't made Ada get involved, whether as a cry for help or a frame-up. She even gave Simmons, the man who ruined her life as well as many others', what he deserved by transforming him into the monster he always was.
@@pinkduskstone1543 It took one game because A. she was a throw away character and B . Weskers plan was a 1000 times the scope and had the legendary Chris on his heels plus the entire BSAA and the government looking into him no one knew who the hell Carla was so they had barely any reason to care about her O and remember the stupidity of Leon when he kept letting Ada and Carla kick him in the balls lol Carla was a crap character that no one cared about while Wesker is hailed as not only the best Resident evil villain but one of the best villains in gaming period not my fault Carla lacked any personality and fans didn't care about her 8).
@@pinkduskstone1543 they only took 1 game because she was just a throwaway character
Frankly, Rebecca deserves the first or second mark because her character was very important and sweet, and in a movie, her character was important.
“Helena is really just Angela copied and pasted.” I guess they were aware of that and decided to get Laura Bailey to voice both of them lol, great performance by her, just wish Helena’s writing was better.
Also glad Moira was put pretty high, I found her fun plus her character arc and development were really good for a side game (low key, she had more development in that one game than some of the main characters have gotten in over a decade). I would definitely like to see her come back.
Bruce McGivern and Fong Ling are like Leon and Ada, but from wish.
Kinda sad that Rachel Foley didnt make the list, although a minor character in Revelations who lived for about 2 minutes. She really made an impact on me especially because she does show up a lot throughout the game. Maybe in a monster ranked video you can add Rachel Ooze :)
When I grew up and Playstation first came out, I never knew it could change gaming like it did. I remember going to my Video Store and renting games, I renting Resident Evil. I only had 2 Days on the rental and was blown away with the game. For me they just got better and better, I even think Resident Evil Code Veronica is up there with the very best. Also Resident Evil 0 was a very underatted game and I have no idea why so low on the list. It was just like playing the old school Resident Evil games, the story was good and it was a very difficult game to complete. Overall when you consider how long the franchise has run for, they have done an unbelievable job, making so many classic games. I was blown away with the remakes and was surprised how good 7 was. Then we got Village and Wow, I was not expecting it to be so good. That game is one of the best, just slightly being beaten by 4. You have to seperate certain titles, with the Survival Horror and the Action based game. Resident Evil 1,2,3, Zero and Code Veronica were classic Resident Evil Survival Horror. Where you did puzzles, the atmosphere, Zombies and the story based on the same events, Racoon City and the Mansion. Then you got, Action with some of the original characters in a different enviroment. Which they had to do because there wasn't much more they could do based around the other games and stories. I really enjoyed Revelations 1 and 2, I felt they were a good mixture of both action and horror. Then of course we got the best game ever, Resident Evil 4, which was so much more different, than what we had come to expect from Resident Evil. Theres nothing bad to say about that game, Capcom were very brave to go in a different direction. It worked and they changed gaming forever, then Resident Evil 5 came along. For me Resident Evil 5, was a poor version of Resident Evil 4. They sort of went with what they did in 4 and changed it in ways that wasn't good. I think they were caught in two minds what to do with that game, I enjoyed it but wouldn't say it was up there with the best. I couldn't make my mind up with 6, I played it through a couple of times and sort of understood what they did. They tried to appeal to Survival Horror Fans with the Leon and Ada Stories. Then to the fast action packed fans of Resident Evil 4 and 5, whith Chris and Jake. Then changed it up a bit and made the stories all blend in, I enjoyed the Leon and Ada Stories. It reminder me of the old style games, I just thought Resident Evil should be survival Horror. It was brilliant what they did with 4, like I said it needed changing up. I just felt doing it with 5 and some of 6 was too much. In the Chris and espicially Jakes story it was like playing Call Of Duty. So when they decided to go back to Survival Horror with 7, that was the correct time to do it. I don't think another Action Packed game would of worked and maybe could of seen sales decline. So after 7 and getting the remakes of 2 and 3, it was so good to go back to the survival horror days. Then when they did Village, they mixed in the Survival Horror and Action perfectly and showed it can work if done properly. They used was was perfect about 4 and mixed in other stuff in earlier games and it worked. I think going forward, they should maybe do a Revelations 3 and see whats happened to Jill. Maybe mix in other main characters with stories about what they have been doing. I hope they do a Code Veronica Remake, I believe if done correctly, that would be amazing. Resident Evil 9 is going to have a hard job of living up to Village, saying that, I did say that about 8 living up to 7. Which it did and was in my opinion better, so again I think Capcom have done amazingly well to still be producing these games. When I think of my other classic Survivor Horror games, the Silent Hill games. They fell away and didn't make anymore, which at the time were massive selling games. Maybe there was nowhere else to go with them, hopefully they look at the Resident Evil Remakes and the Company takes note. Them games remade today, would still sell a huge amounts of games.
nice to see someone who gives Sheva a fair chance to shine.
Actually i don´t really unterstand why people hating her so much, mostly for the AI. But it is the partner AI.
Would be ice to had her in Vendetta, in a wedding dress. xD
Also the same to Jake. Very underrated character. He as a Nero feeling from Devil May cry, but i know that you want to check that franchise out. And so i won´t spoil you anything.
Don´t worry, i was actually excited to play Code Veronica. Mostly for the reason it was banned together with RE2 in germany.
I literaly had to make a Austria PSN account to play the HD Version on my PS3.
Agreed, with the Carla and Simmons thing. It literaly feels odd, that someone clones a asian spy, and it feels kinda out of place.
And to Helena = Angela... they even share the same VA: Laura Bailey.
Also, to Jessica... Well mostly she shares the same VA like Lightning from FFXIII. I want her to come back as well.
Ethan was absolutely everyman, I guess so you could insert yourself into the story easier. It clicked for me so well in RE8 that his sacrifice had me with tears running down the cheeks.
But I also have to agree he is very differently written from whole cast. Like I said he is generic by design, at least I think that was Capcom intent.
The reason Ethan didnt want to work with Heisenberg was because he wanted to weaponize Rose
Hunk is popular because the same tired old myterious quiet badass trope that people.
Chris is in SSS - we’re good
We all know Albert wesker will be in the highest ranking category
I think a interesting list to see would be to separate each character into different game. Rank each Chris, Jill, Leon, Clear, etc by each game.
Not sure how comprehensive the list should be but for some odd reason, RE series hates bring back old character so shouldn't to hard.
How dare you, Rebecca is GOAT. WAIT A MINUTE. HOW DO YOU KNOW WHAT HENTAI CLAIRE IS IN!?
