in fact you missed some of them. one in RE 2 while fighting with tyrant on the crane (I don't know what that platform name is, and Ada threw that for Leon). In both RE4's (original and remake) Ada give Leon a Well-Timed RPG. and in RE6 Leon story, At the ending, there was an RPG near the helicopter, also provided by Ada. (God bless Ada) and really how you could summarize whole story and yet do not show the Iconic RE6 Leon and Chris encounter? on top of all those, There is a Well-Timed Pistol at the end of RE7. (the Albert-01)😅

He is the most consistent character in design term aside from RE7, i think you just hop on this idea train since Chris design became just stadium mindset that cant be changed 🤥🙄
@@shodim4495 consistency aside, his character design has had some of the most drastic, changes that were not explained by a violent mutation, in the series. I think that's why so many people think he's been redesigned a lot more than he has. Because when he has, it has been huge. Pun intended.

In case anyone is curious, miranda found the the megamycete right after her daughter died wayyyyy back then. It was in the caves under the village and is of unknown origin and the mold acts like a neural network and stores memories and data of those who die near it. (Which is how miranda was going to basically download her baby from the megamycete.) When Spencer worked with Miranda he learned about the mold which inspired him to pursue artifical evolution. When he found the flowers that naturally produced the progenitor virus after learning of a tribe of people living unnaturally long, he and Miranda argued about which was better, mold or viruses. They disagreed and Miranda did her mold experiments while Spencer went to develop the virus experiments with help from the Marcus' funding and Birkin's experience. I felt the origin wasn't clearly explained so I wanted to make sure people got how the mold and viruses shared a similar origin story with Miranda vs Spencer. This video was fantastic. Thanks so much for doing this!
It's scary to think that sciencists are doing that rn. They are putting little mushroom brains in computers and they grew eyes so they could see 💀 it would be really cool to see if you could actually do what Miranda is trying since the giant mass of mycelium underground absorbs all dead things. Ik this is a game but yk we are actually getting really close to doing that crazy shit!
You can't continue to sell/make more Resident Evil games the way they are in a world without humans. Similar to why comic book superheroes/villains are impossible to truly kill - these companies require contrivances to keep their franchises alive.
the arguable difference is that in most zombie outbreak scenarios the 'powers that be' try to hide the outbreaks until they infect the whole world, while in the RE games they actually proactively try to shut them down in the early stages
@@delphy2478 and also the people who start the virus itself try to control it and limit it as it may affect their goals. There's no use for virus terrorist attacks if you can't limit the area of effect to your enemies. Neither can you sell it to someone who aims to actually destroy the world. It makes it a bit more believable to me
@@SolidSnake240 They snuffed out birds with T? You know that fly. The mold got into the bayou, there's no containing that. Heck the T-Abyss got put into the ocean. Yeah localized areas
Shout out to my main girl Rebecca Chambers, she may have been dropped, but never forgotten. Its a shame Shinji Mikami and the RE team at the time were butting heads over her character, I feel she could have been a great candidate for great character developement if she had been given a little more time in the series apart from 2 games
You said it; there's a lot of characters I wish saw more light. Rebecca out of many of these had EASILY the most potential. Fingers crossed we'll see her again. But I sincerely doubt it.
@@Weaselboar No she isn't, are you talking about Revs 3 rumours? Either way, she's not in any Revs game out currently, dunno if you're confusing her with Barry's daughter Moira...she...also.....has short hair? 😅
The whiplash of "Wow I really need to get into RE" to "Hoo boy, I am too scared to get into RE" to "*Wow* I really need to get into RE." I got attached to a bunch of characters I've only known in periphery before this, just from your narration alone. Phenomenally put together and one of your best yet! I'll be revisiting this one a lot once I finally start playing these.
That's all I could ever ask for! Thank you, Arf. I'm really glad I could do this monolith of a series the justice it deserves. I think you'll really enjoy the series should you dip a toe. Also, thank you ALWAYS for your continued support
As a person who was a complete chicken to the point of staying away from horror games, before I got into RE (Courtesy of J's reviews), I can say its worth the mini heart attacks. The fear is part of the fun ;)
RE6 is the most constant stream of "okay yeah sure" nonsense you'll probably ever have to meet a video game halfway with and I love it for that. and I love this video for the herculean task of providing a genuinely engaging and hilarious, ridiculously digestible, perfectly thorough timeline of the events of Resident Evil. you hit an immaculate ratio between thoroughness of information from each game in the series without in any way overshadowing a desire to play the games themselves. that is really hard to do!!! but you did it! simply incredible stuff as always Chip.
Man, the fact you're able to condense the lore in such a short time (yeah, "short") is amazing. Definitely a great look back at everything that transpired in over 25 years of RE games.
chip i could fuckin cry dude. i’m awestruck by how you managed to explain this insane lore in 40 minutes (felt like 12 minutes bc i was so damn invested) so well that i felt like i’m new to RE and i’ve never played a single game and i decided to research before playing, this is gorgeous.. phenomenal even!! that 15 day hell was totally worth it, you fuckin killed it. 🖤
YEEAAHH! I'm so glad you think so!! Now we're both experts you and I! Thanks so much for watching it all the way through; I'm glad you liked it so much!
Have you decided which game to start with? The earliest games have the best story... But the difficulty difference and control schemes are a nightmare, keep that in mind, but the earlier remakes also will draw on the most adrenaline fueled nightmares
This video is so insanely well put together and sums up Resident Evil perfectly and the effort here is actually so phenomenal. And it felt like it just breezed by because of how engaging your video style, pacing, and commentary are. You explained things i didnt really understand about the series and made them make aense. I love this so much.
I cant see a better and shorter way to digest all story in less than one hour. I hope more people watch this and find love for RE series. Keep the good work up.
I can never look at the ps1 photo of Albert Wesker dressed as a scientist and working in a professional laboratory, but still wearing the sunglasses and not laugh.
Damn, by the end, I really wanted to cry. It feels so weird knowing that I'm older than a resident evil character...It just feels so weird. I just feel so weird knowing that there's characters out there I love who I'm older than...wow. But that just goes to show how well done this video is. It deserves much more likes and attention!
That is such a sobering feeling, no doubt. It just feels so depressing to gap a character you look up to in age. Such a huge mixed bag - and something I'm so sorry you had to feel watching my silly lil video Thank you so much for watching! But - growing up's not so bad! You get to do whatever you want now.
@@ChipmunkuChan Oh, don't be sorry about that lol. It makes my heart hurt, yes, but it also makes me feel human. I'm growing up and I can't do anything about it.

Also your video sure as hell isn't silly. It was enjoyable and a lot of time and effort went into it, I can tell! Seriously. It was a great summary and it made me laugh whenever Wesker came up because you seemed so DONE with him LOL
I can’t tell you how many of these videos are out there. But you did something better than the others. Fantastic video and can’t wait to see more like it.
31:26 "gone are the mentions of Leon Kennedy" dude, I was so disappointed that I stopped folding the laundry, stared at my tablet for a few seconds and then let out a very dejected "nooooooooo"
This video is straight from the heavens. I’ve always wanted to learn more about the lore but was too overwhelmed by the sheer volume of content to start!
As someone who was about the same as you with having little to no knowledge of RE growing up, OTHER than the movie (which fun enough my monkey brain loved), to spenting the last four years consuming all RE media i possibly can. This summary was awesome!! Definitely saving it in my playlist to come back to when i need background noise/something to watch!!
I absolutely loved this video, the avatar, the break room, the Ada worship. TY! TY! I’m just getting into this series but the lore is so intense and this video is the shortest and most concise one out here. (Also thank you for the picture of Leon in a crop top that helped ease my brain.🖤)
"And if you were working on something while listening to this, I hope the project goes well!" BRO NO ONE'S EVER CALLED ME OUT FOR MY ADDICTION TO LISTENING TO LONG FORM UA-cam VIDEOS WHILE DOING ARTS AND CRAFTS I FEEL SO SEEN AND ALSO THANK YOU IT IS GOING WELL
I grew up playing RE, beat the OG trilogy as a young kid but sadly was withdrawn from it as poverty struck and my love for gaming was taken from me for years. 20 something years passed, i've got some cash now and started playing some of the games and kinda started getting into the groove of it again as I loved the series and they imprinted fond memories on me. But with so many games the best thing to do was to watch a summary of it all to understand why we went from zombies to raging spanish cursing villagers to some disgusting undescribable creatures. And, what I find is a total massive CLUSTERFUCK that barely keeps some resemblance to the past I remembered; and, thanks to your video i sort of understand this shitshow now but holy hell it threw me off from the series. God level summary work. Excellent video mate.
This content is incredibly well-made. You always succeed in making it captivating. I've been a fan of the game since the release of Resident Evil 4, but I've never really delved into all the intricate details until now. So, thanks for enlightening me on these aspects.
You got crazy potential, More long videos with this same enthusiasm and editing and I’m sure you’ll get that acknowledgment you deserve man, You just got a new sub. GODSPEED!!!!!
This is far and away the best "Story Up To This Point..." of Resident Evil that ive seen. Ive been a huge fan of the series my entire life and parts still confuse me to this day lol. (Im looking at you Revelations 1&2) but the way you put everything together was perfect! Well done.
I'm really sitting here trying to play re4 at 3 am while listening to this video. Some how I have paused the game to actually pay more attention to the video because it's actually hilarious. Keep it up.
bro im just leaving a comment here to thank you for this video. i just beat RE4, and now im trying to play RE4 remake but i literally cannot get past the first village section without hyperventilating because i have severe anxiety. I don't think i can play any more of the series even though I really want to play them all
I'm so sorry to hear that! I'm glad I could accompany in any way. I hope you get the chance to try some of them someday! They're really good. But if not, I'm still glad you enjoyed your stay.
The way how the movies (the animated onces) and the animated short series + the irl plays are connecting to the storyline as well... is insanse! RE isn't just a gameseries, it's a whole a- lore.. Love the video
It’s funny, because when it comes to the lore of resident evil, I’m one of the semi- veterans, and I understand this video is supposed to be for beginners, but at the same time for it being for beginners, it covers quite a lot lore wise and you explain it very easy and really well❤, one of the plot points being that Miranda has been there since the beginning mentoring Oswell
I must say the Resident Evil 7 and 8 (especially 7) are the best ones storywise from the series. They dont use much bullshit, they are grounded, they are relatable.
Great video loved the effort you put into it and it’s absolutely insane you were able to condense all the lore of the series into a 40 minute video most impressive and I absolutely love this video as a longtime RE fan and a person who’s played all the games
I've never felt more supported than this man telling me, things are about to be complicated but its ok, he's done the hard work and there are chapters just in case I need them.
You're absolutely right! I had no clue!! Hey honestly if you'd like me to credit the work I'd be more than happy to add your portfolio to the description
I've been a Resident Evil lore gremlin since I found out Wesker was alive. My little adolescent brain thought this was the greatest twist of all time and that the series was the deepest most complex interesting story ever constructed lol
Started playing the series a month ago. Started with RE1 remake, jumped back to RE Zero, then did RE2 Remake, RE3 Remake (Jill is like a different character here), OG RE4, and am just finishing up RE5. RE5 is such a "what is happening Matrix I guess" I needed answers. Que this video. Papa bless.
Started playing DBD recently and saw the RE characters and was curious. My friend told me I should get into it so I found this video. I have never once watched a video longer than 25 minutes in one sitting…until now. This was the most helpful thing ever, and i absolutely love the chapters on it so I can go back for certain parts
This video was really incredible! You did such an amazing job! I do wish you'd covered Resident Evil Revelations 2 because Moira Burton is my favorite character and I feel like she gets glossed over a lot. But lack of Moira aside, this video was fantastic.
I'm glad you liked it! And you know what - you were so cool about it; I think I'll likely do a follow up video on Resi games and I'll be sure to get both Revelations.
On my twitch channel, I went through all the resident evil games I could get my hands on because I had never played one and I was curious. Went through all of them with a fresh mind. What a journey. Except for Resi 6 and code veronica, didn't like those two much.
Totally called me out at the end lmao. I'm working on an embroidery design for a tote bag that says "lucky me! I'm in the R.P.D." (like a play on "lucky me! I'm a kkg") Your narration is super entertaining, thanks!
Fantastic content, this channel is going to BLOW UP! Your presentation was fun, informative and the way the video was put together really draws you in. Just found you on the recommended page and you've absolutely got a new subscriber! Excited to see the future of this channel.
My man I give you mad props for being a casual fan and putting this great video together but you forgot all about Resident Evil Revelations 1 and 2 and they are huge lore and story wise
Never thought I'll ever get my head around this franchise ever.!!! But thanks to you, even a 21 yr old guy with a brain of a 6 yr old like myself has it clear as day by WATCHING JUST A 40 MINUTE VIDEO.!!! অনেক ধন্যবাদ তোমাকে...❤ ( That's thanks in my language)

ayyyyy that's what we do it for baybee!
hope it went well!
I absolutely loved this video, the avatar, the break room, the Ada worship. TY! TY! I’m just getting into this series but the lore is so intense and this video is the shortest and most concise one out here.
(Also thank you for the picture of Leon in a crop top that helped ease my brain.🖤)
More recognition needs to be given to Joe Baker. Imagine taking on super mutant monsters as an old dude in a fist fight and winning. Dude's a Chad.
The way you prepared me for when you moved on to th next part of the lore was amazing you set the tone of what im in for next that was unique
Keep up the good work dude. Your channel is blowing up like a Well-Timed RPG lol.
Now that's a classy comment.
Thank you so so much for the support.
Adding Silent Hill ost to Resident Evil clips is super satisfying.
Every time someone reminds me of the gun fist fight I love life again
"And if you were working on something while listening to this, I hope the project goes well!"
BRO NO ONE'S EVER CALLED ME OUT FOR MY ADDICTION TO LISTENING TO LONG FORM UA-cam VIDEOS WHILE DOING ARTS AND CRAFTS I FEEL SO SEEN AND ALSO THANK YOU IT IS GOING WELL
as someone trying to get into this series for a friend, bless you. bless your bloodline
Thanks for the video and small detail in the end about the project im doing while listening
Always! Thanks for watching!
I grew up playing RE, beat the OG trilogy as a young kid but sadly was withdrawn from it as poverty struck and my love for gaming was taken from me for years. 20 something years passed, i've got some cash now and started playing some of the games and kinda started getting into the groove of it again as I loved the series and they imprinted fond memories on me. But with so many games the best thing to do was to watch a summary of it all to understand why we went from zombies to raging spanish cursing villagers to some disgusting undescribable creatures. And, what I find is a total massive CLUSTERFUCK that barely keeps some resemblance to the past I remembered; and, thanks to your video i sort of understand this shitshow now but holy hell it threw me off from the series. God level summary work. Excellent video mate.
This content is incredibly well-made. You always succeed in making it captivating. I've been a fan of the game since the release of Resident Evil 4, but I've never really delved into all the intricate details until now. So, thanks for enlightening me on these aspects.
Hey, that means a ton actually! Thanks so much for saying this.
You got crazy potential, More long videos with this same enthusiasm and editing and I’m sure you’ll get that acknowledgment you deserve man, You just got a new sub. GODSPEED!!!!!
I love it when Albert Wesker says “Its weskering time” and then he Weskers all over the place
This is far and away the best "Story Up To This Point..." of Resident Evil that ive seen. Ive been a huge fan of the series my entire life and parts still confuse me to this day lol. (Im looking at you Revelations 1&2) but the way you put everything together was perfect! Well done.
I'm really sitting here trying to play re4 at 3 am while listening to this video. Some how I have paused the game to actually pay more attention to the video because it's actually hilarious. Keep it up.
bro im just leaving a comment here to thank you for this video. i just beat RE4, and now im trying to play RE4 remake but i literally cannot get past the first village section without hyperventilating because i have severe anxiety. I don't think i can play any more of the series even though I really want to play them all
I'm so sorry to hear that! I'm glad I could accompany in any way. I hope you get the chance to try some of them someday! They're really good.
But if not, I'm still glad you enjoyed your stay.
The way how the movies (the animated onces) and the animated short series + the irl plays are connecting to the storyline as well... is insanse! RE isn't just a gameseries, it's a whole a- lore.. Love the video
This is one of the best informative videos I've ever watched. The editing and commentary are unmatched. Can't wait to see what you have next.
Wow, thanks! That means a ton! I'm glad you enjoyed and hope you stick around!!
It’s funny, because when it comes to the lore of resident evil, I’m one of the semi- veterans, and I understand this video is supposed to be for beginners, but at the same time for it being for beginners, it covers quite a lot lore wise and you explain it very easy and really well❤, one of the plot points being that Miranda has been there since the beginning mentoring Oswell
I must say the Resident Evil 7 and 8 (especially 7) are the best ones storywise from the series. They dont use much bullshit, they are grounded, they are relatable.
Not gonna lie, your recap of RE 6 makes me wanna give it a go lmao
Honestly? I was too hard on it. It's so fucking fun/funny. Give it a go.
@@ChipmunkuChan seems like an insane and hilarious ride
I was looking at microscopy samples while listening to this. Great video and comprehensive overview of the RE series.
Oh that's awesome! Thanks so much for watching.
Comments like these are easily my favorites.
Playin animal crossing while listening to this. It’s goin great
That was probably the best 40 minutes and 52 seconds of my life
Great video loved the effort you put into it and it’s absolutely insane you were able to condense all the lore of the series into a 40 minute video most impressive and I absolutely love this video as a longtime RE fan and a person who’s played all the games
I'm glad I could do the series justice!! Thanks so much for watching- I am elated to hear you enjoyed!!
I've never felt more supported than this man telling me, things are about to be complicated but its ok, he's done the hard work and there are chapters just in case I need them.
I randomly click in this video, and out of nowhere at 5:42 there is the t-virus artwork I made! Hahahahahahahahahhaha
You're absolutely right! I had no clue!! Hey honestly if you'd like me to credit the work I'd be more than happy to add your portfolio to the description
I've been a Resident Evil lore gremlin since I found out Wesker was alive. My little adolescent brain thought this was the greatest twist of all time and that the series was the deepest most complex interesting story ever constructed lol
This was incredible! Really enjoyed watching/listening just before getting ready for bed
Heck yeah! I'm glad I could keep such company! - Enjoy your night as well yo
I can’t get enough of your love and appreciation for the Venture Brothers
Killer video really enjoyed the lore coverage and the jokes. I hope you get a well timed rpg when you need it. 💜
You're far too kind
The best explanation for beginners I've ever seen, maybe now my friends will get interested in RE series
Started playing the series a month ago. Started with RE1 remake, jumped back to RE Zero, then did RE2 Remake, RE3 Remake (Jill is like a different character here), OG RE4, and am just finishing up RE5. RE5 is such a "what is happening Matrix I guess" I needed answers. Que this video. Papa bless.
Dude I go to sleep to this, I love the way he explains it and his personality 😂😂 I keep coming back, best explained youtuber in my opinion
0:04 A creppy horror with good story, gameplay and characters. So 90% of the games dont match with that description
2 of them. Literally only 2 of them dont match that description. There are 8 mainline games alone....
that would be re5 and re6 right? not hating just wondering if im right@@comradeeverclear4063
Started playing DBD recently and saw the RE characters and was curious. My friend told me I should get into it so I found this video. I have never once watched a video longer than 25 minutes in one sitting…until now. This was the most helpful thing ever, and i absolutely love the chapters on it so I can go back for certain parts
Oh that's awesome!! I'm very honored! I'm glad to hear the video helped in any way!
The Adam Sessler drop is under-appreciated.
FINALLY someone with some goated humor
You, my guy, made me the happiest man on Earth by resuming my favorite game series in 40 minutes.
This video was really incredible! You did such an amazing job!
I do wish you'd covered Resident Evil Revelations 2 because Moira Burton is my favorite character and I feel like she gets glossed over a lot. But lack of Moira aside, this video was fantastic.
I'm glad you liked it!
And you know what - you were so cool about it; I think I'll likely do a follow up video on Resi games and I'll be sure to get both Revelations.
Resident Evil lore and story is so deep that you could fill a library. I once watched a video 12 hours long that explained everything
On my twitch channel, I went through all the resident evil games I could get my hands on because I had never played one and I was curious. Went through all of them with a fresh mind. What a journey. Except for Resi 6 and code veronica, didn't like those two much.
Totally called me out at the end lmao. I'm working on an embroidery design for a tote bag that says "lucky me! I'm in the R.P.D." (like a play on "lucky me! I'm a kkg") Your narration is super entertaining, thanks!
Lets go! Cannot wait to watch this tomorrow.
Talking in a fanboy-ish voice when mentioning wesker or hunk makes this so much better and relatable. Great Video
Leon may be your eyecandy but I'm eyeing Carlos 🎀‼️
Just came to say the first thing that comes to mind when I hear ‘resident evil’ is the Umbrella Logo.
got into this game because I thought ada and leon were hot and now I've fell down a rabbit hole
absolutely based
RE has taught us that everything can be solved with enough firepower.
Fantastic content, this channel is going to BLOW UP! Your presentation was fun, informative and the way the video was put together really draws you in. Just found you on the recommended page and you've absolutely got a new subscriber! Excited to see the future of this channel.
That's fantastic news!! I'm so glad to hear you've enjoyed what you've seen! Glad to have you on-board.
i hav such a poor attention span but i was hooked from start to finish..! thank you so much for compiling the lore into this video!
That's really kind to say!! I'm really glad you liked it, thank you so much for watching!
I was surprised of the amount subscribers! The material quality deserves thousands of more
Hey, thanks so much!! Only up from here - I suppose!
Man now this makes me wonder what they're going to do for the 9th game
Take a shot every time he says "well-timed RPG" and make it infinitely easier to understand Resident Evil: Revelations when you look it up
My man I give you mad props for being a casual fan and putting this great video together but you forgot all about Resident Evil Revelations 1 and 2 and they are huge lore and story wise
great video, amazing work putting it all together despite how messy the lore was at times, it was a plenty entertaining video by itself too
Thanks a ton! That means a lot. (:
Never thought I'll ever get my head around this franchise ever.!!!
But thanks to you, even a 21 yr old guy with a brain of a 6 yr old like myself has it clear as day by WATCHING JUST A 40 MINUTE VIDEO.!!!
অনেক ধন্যবাদ তোমাকে...❤ ( That's thanks in my language)
this is a really good video explaining the gist of the lore! staying for the great quality & personality, keep up the great work man!
Thank you so much!!
Always warms the heart to know people like what I'm doing!
i grew up playing resident evil and Darkside chronicles was mu favourite and when 8 came out i brought it for my dad for Christmas
