And Claire's reaction showed that she noticed something was up. I mean, that's the whole context of Code Veronica happening.

There ain't much to otherwise discuss. Chris didn't look anything close to that in 1998, so this is clearly a model for a non-canon mode they've yet to reveal. That, or it's a whole lotta nothing, and that model is just there because.
His actual face model is probably the most consistent in the series. Seriously, if you take his face it's mostly the same just higher poly. In those images, the only one that's different is 7's.
That's not a picture from Code: Veronica, it's from the CV scenario in Darkside Chronicles.
This is Code: Veronica Chris:
His worst design by far.
Oh. Still looks good and in line with REmake Chris.That's not a picture from Code: Veronica, it's from the CV scenario in Darkside Chronicles.

What do you think of Vendettas chris? Completely different lol
He looks goofy in some angles(especially when he smiles) but still far superior to RE7 Chris
I like that this gif exists.
Putting it behind tags in case you're at work.
*Right clicks, Saves*
All Chrises are gay and all are valid even if you don't find him attractive anymore.
You're right, I wasn't really serious, just trying to say something mildly amusing.
This has me laughing hard as hell. It's like the REAL chris is like "wtf is this shit?"
IT's both. Chris knows people that know him know he's gay so the girl thing is big ole red herring to disguise his coded message
There's just too much porn for this to be a wholly satisfying conclusion imo. Old Chris captured something in the zeitgeist tbh.
I really want to believe that lol
The overall military/action movie "look" certainly didn't change, but the models did. Its different people and it's jarring when compared to what we had before. If he didn't say he was "Redfield", nobody would ever know that was Chris... It could be literally any random military agent, and that's exactly the problem here. A random military agent is not the Chris Redfield people knew.
It's ok that people arbitrarily prefer one over the other (or simply not care at all) since it's still the "same character", but the concerns are completely understandable and valid imo.
Chris is the most consistent
REmake, UC, DC, RE5, RE6
Rebecca is the least also with the least appearances
suddenly Japanese-ish
back to white
I literally want a hit of the drug where the remake model doesn't look like the CV one but does look like the RE5 one.
why is gold edition labelled as 2006 in that chart. lol?
The current model doesn't look like re5-6 chris but kinda looks like the remake one. I think it was an (unsuccessful) attempt to bridge the two looks in the shift to a photogammetry based, more realistic style.
Did Capcom really not see the huge backlash against RE7's Chris? For fuck's sake.
I was gonna use this exact gif before seeing your post.
Yeah, you can't have Chris without Roger voicing him. He's the definitive voice for the character.

Typical Capcom, trying to sell you on disc DLC before they have even printed the disc....smh.
He's Batman now. Don't have time to be saving Racoon City's broken down ass.
No its fine. I dont think anyone was looking to get any sleep tonight anyway.Someone retextured the RE7 model:

That really does look a lot closer to the REmake model. I don't know why they made him blonde... At least with Jill they gave a reason lol.
RE5 Chris literally used the Remake face model as a base.
RE7 Chris looks like trash and nothing like any of the previous iterations.
Not only does Chris look awful in RE7, but it doesn't make sense how he changed so much in a short amount of time, since Resident Evil Vendetta takes place not too long before RE7.
I almost bought the game today thinking this was an unlockable costume. LOL! Oh well... I'll still pick it up after I finish some other stuff.
Yes, I omitted CV because REmake was the point where characters started looking like real people (well, not counting RE1 intro/endings). CV still had that cartoonish art design.
Capcom started using real model's faces to create characters back in REmake (hence Julia Vorth as Jill). In an interview about REmake's development someone from the team (don't remember who, maybe Mikami) said that with this level of graphic fidelity, they need to have face models since characters look so realistic that someone could sue them with "hey, that's my face in your game!".
The RE5 trailer Chris was just a prototype look. As people already pointed out, Chris' final face in RE5 (and thus Revelations and RE6) is based on REmake Chris. They just buffed him, modified him (shrinken his eyes for some reason) and changed the hairstyle. Just like RE5 Jill is REmake Jill with longer hair and bigger nose (for some reason).
And even if you insist that REmake Chris looks nothing like RE5 Chris, that's still only one design change in 15 years (2002 - 2017). But he still has a similar face features and dark hair. Unlike RE7 Chris, who suddenly has a long face, blonde hair, and looks nothing like his previous two major iterations.
The "I'm Redfield" moment at the end of RE7 was meant to be the "Is that you? :D" moment from the end of RE3, where Barry suddenly appears in the helicopter and saves Jill. Instead it was a literal "who are you?" moment for a lot (all?) players who were confused by an appearance of a character who looks and sounds nothing like Chris Redfield they had knew for the last 15 years.
RE5, 6 and 7 Chris all look terrible. The new one barely resembles him especially with the random change to his hair colour. If they darkened his hair and gave him more of his classic colors it would look so much better.
Side by side they look like completely different people and it doesn't help with the roid look. If they kept his eye shape and colour i think roid chris would look a lot better. Pierre looks more like classic Chris and is hotter.
I understand they used the same model but I don't know why people keep saying the eye shape is the only change. RE5 changed his eye colour, his eyebrows aren't as long and they are shaped differently, his lips are longer, his ears are smaller and his skin is slightly darker.RE5 Chris literally used the Remake face model as a base.

i also find it sorta weird that some think Chris' physique would be too cartoony for the photorealistic style when Joe Baker is THIS fucking stacked:
Apart from 7's atrocious redesign all versions of Chris have some level of consistency. It's baffling they want to stick to this new one. He may as well be a completely different character.
Even if it was only the eyes that they changed, that's a pretty significant defining part of a face.
What does them having real faces have to do with anything? The point is that even with the introduction of mocap faces, you could still tell that Jill, Barry and the rest, in the Remake, are who they are because of their clothes, or their distinct hair style etc. Claire for instance having a ponytail and a red hacket, Leon's DiCaprio looking haircut. Chris' most eye catching feature are the colours on his clothes, anything else about him looked nothing like his previous iterations. He just strikes me as generic white soldier boy. Having said that, I'm not really that big of a fan of his RE7 design either, it is at least a step up from hiring a balloon salesman as his personal trainer.
And youre assuming hes straight with no evidence
Straight isnt default
Yet he's still a frail twig compared to RE5 Chris.i also find it sorta weird that some think Chris' physique would be too cartoony for the photorealistic style when Joe Baker is THIS fucking stacked:
RE7 Chris looks like Chris if he
-Relapsed on his alcoholism after the ending of RE6
-Stopped hitting the gym
-Had a hard life
-Is nearing the wrong side of his 40's
-Had his face stretched out like a piece of taffy

Man, Joe Baker's story was so rad. Punching zombies to save your niece felt great.
Wait, so is the world of Resident Evil moving in real time with the actual real world dates? So Chris, Claire, Leon, and everyone else is really over 20 years older since their first appearances?
I just figured things was like the world of SF where Ryu and Ken are probably in their mid to late 30's despite the fact that they should be 55 now.

Resident Evil 7 takes place in 2017. Supposedly it is still in the main timeline continuity (I see posts stating they confirm either way, so I'm unsure), so it has been 19 years since Resident Evil 2. Which is 2 months after Resident Evil 1.
Chris was born in 1973, so in theory that would make him 44 as of Resident Evil 7.
