Btw there was an update: https://www.reddit.com/r/GamingLeak...leak_update_leon_will_be_the_protagonist_for/
"The source that stated Leon would be the protagonist of the prologue has rectified himself and now claims that he will be the protagonist for the whole game, not just the prologue. Whether he'll be the only protagonist or not isn't clear."
Personally I will be surprised if Rose isn't playable.
Yeah no way. This game isn't gonna be set 17 years after RE8. A 60+ y/o Leon ain't happening.
Why not? She was 16 at the end of Village with a fully functional Chris.
That's way too much of a time gap. A mainline RE game won't get there for at least a decade.
Rose wont be playable.They already paved the way for hear in Shadow Of Rose DLC. If you think a sequel for a mainline RE ill go back in time, that is another story.

Yeah that's kinda how I feel now:( sometimes idk know why I even hype myself up fin who might show up when it's most likely Chris and LeonJust like Claire (Lets be real, Revelations 2 wasn't really a Claire game, it was Barry and Natalia), Rebecca got kicked down the totem pole from fighter to rescuer as they said for Claire in Resident Evil Degeneration. Rebecca was treated like a damn Damsel in distress in RE Vendetta then Claire/Rebecca had a moment in RE Death Island together like "Yeah! we did something like the main heroes! *Highfive.*" It's really sucky treatment Capcom gives to Claire and Rebecca these days. It's always Leon this and that with ball tickling from Ada or Chris Redfield (although I like him more than Leon) Simply put, I do not know if we're ever going to see Rebecca/Claire in a main character spotlight EVER again but I'd love it if they did
I obviously meant chronologically, like duh. Every main character bar Chris hasn't been seen or been playable in over a decade in the gameverse.
Thanks Ethan!/s
Resident Evil Village's Shadows of Rose DLC Will 'Conclude the Winters Family Saga' - IGN
Resident Evil Village's story DLC arrives on October 28, and we're now learning that Shadows of Rose's roughly four-hour campaign will wrap up the Winters family's major role in the Resident Evil series.www.ign.com
Rose is definitely not going to be a protagonist and will likely just be a supporting character at most in the future
So I don't think they should stop doing third person games, I just don't think the mainline games needs to go back to that type of game. RE7 was a great breath of fresh air which despite som hardcore fans grievances was really well loved same as RE4 was at the time. I think relapsing back into RE6 type of over the top action is a step back.I mean I hate the first person RE titles and the remakes are outselling the new numbered series so, pretty sure there is basis to go back to games that are actually fun mechanically.
That's good because the whole Rose thing was essentially a superhero story at that point, and I'm okay if we don't move further down that path.Resident Evil Village's Shadows of Rose DLC Will 'Conclude the Winters Family Saga' - IGN

Dusk Golem's records of "leaks" at this point have been more false than accurate. More than half of the shit he says backtracks on or puts some "something changed!" spin on it, so can we please stop taking his words as fact...
Nothing personal on him, I'm sure he's a great a guy and his games look cool, but nothing he says is credible or reliable anymore (or ever was?)
Why does third person automatically equate to RE6 shlock? The remakes prove we can have our cake and eat it too, or whatever.So I don't think they should stop doing third person games, I just don't think the mainline games needs to go back to that type of game.

The remake games fullfill the action quota of Resident Evil and I think that's fine so that those of use who prefer slower and more horror focused games get our fill too. Outside of the wrestling loves in RE4 I didn't really see much difference between the games except the movement speed and perspective. I want them to reiterate more on the formula.
RE3 Remake and RE4 Remake are definitely RE5 & RE6 shlock, lots of scripted action movie set pieces, QTEs, bullet time dodges, supplexes, roundhouse kicks, the protagonists are all action movie stars and extremely capable. And that's fine, they are step above 6 and beginning with RE3 is where the series started to go down the hardboiled action movie path. I like those games including RE2 Remake but I don't think they are particularly good horror games the way RE7 felt like, and I want Resident Evil to be horror too especially post RE7 because they proved that first person works.Why does third person automatically equate to RE6 shlock? The remakes prove we can have our cake and eat it too, or whatever.
And IDK if you noticed but there is a ton of action in RE8 so it's not like the first person games are immune to that, either.
It has to be at least in how it'll play out, right? Leon is a superhuman. Chris is also. So is Ethan. Most of them are. Can't go back to RE 4 and a mundane setting at the start like RE 7 did. This has the biggest budget for a RE game. Let's go all camp again!

The one thing I'll give RE6 is that it gifs exceptionally well.It has to be at least in how it'll play out, right? Leon is a superhuman. Chris is also. So is Ethan. Most of them are.

A good RE6-2 would be amazing.

Is it still going to be first person? Even after the success of the remakes? I'm bored already.
Did not buy the DLC for Village and did not buy RE4R. At this point in time I think RE as a franchise is dropping more and more off my radar. The story is now bonkers (bad bonkers), the first person perspective never did anything for me, we've strayed so horrendously far from the visceral fear inducing shenanigans of the older games and... it all feels meh. There is a reason why RE2R now is the game in the franchise that has sold the most ever and it's not just nostalgia.
Also, Capcom still hasn't remade Code Veronica and I will remain bitter about it for a very long time.
Third person Resident Evil is more popular and people with motion sickness (Japanese players are also quite susceptible to that) have less problems. I think it was no accident they added a third person perspective to Village and even made the DLC third person only.Yes, they in fact are not going to arbitrarily drop the almost equally successful first person perspective when they've made it quite evident they're plenty capable of developing both first and third person games in tandem.
Why do they need to arbitrarily throw away half of a good thing?
I just tried third person in Village and you can't even see his face if you rotate the camara lmao.I continue to be puzzled by the interest that some people have in Ethan Winters and his story. The dude wasn't even given a face, because he was intended to be like 85% a player avatar for a VR game.
