Is there still something weird about Leon going into a village and blasting everything to pieces?
- Thread starter Vex
- Start date
Legally the man attacking Leon didn't have the conditions fulfilled for "self-defense" even with Leon trespassing under Spain's laws. However, under the same law, Leon has the right to defend himself.
the first person he sees tries to kill him
the same person comes back to life with a broken neck and tentacles, showing that even at this stage in the game they're already very mutated
then they're burning people alive and attacking Leon with pitchforks and chainsaws
This is after he's been through the events of Racoon City. Im surprised he didn't keep shooting after they all decided it was time to go and play Bingo.

They where litterally killing and burning innocent people. He saw the cop being set on fire for heavens sakes?
Even then, not really his jurisdiction is it? Shit wouldn't fly in the real world, crazy villagers or not.
Aside from Los Illuminados, are there any government or authorities that administer El Pueblo? Are they actually communicating with the government?
I mean, it's all in Spain, so I imagine the Spain government? lol
Usually yeah. In a world where a zombie outbreak fucked up a whole city and the guy fought Mr. X and William Birkin, now being employed to rescue the presidents daughter (lol) I think there's some leeway for suspending disbelief.
Regarding things that make questionable sense in RE4 though, I think they're going to go above and beyond that again.

But im pretty sure they attacked him 1st.
He cant defend himself if there attacking and trying to murder him?
If it was defense, he'd of killed that first man then properly reported the activity he witnessed to the Spanish authorities.
Yes after he stoped the people with pitch forks trying to fill him with holes.
He immediately reports it to Hunnigan. If you go back to speak to the Spanish police they're already captured, at least in the original.
"And the trees were too dense for me to walk around the house to continue my investigation."
In the remake he only shoots after finding the missing cops bloodstained badge. He only really starts blasting when the other cop is burned at the stake
doesn't he arrive in raccoon city the day before his first day
Yeah, he broke up with his girlfriend, went to Raccoon City without arranging for an apartment first, then got drunk and left late for his first day because he had a hangover.
In the original, he presents a photo of a missing girl and is met with an unprompted axe being swung at his face.
He then leaves the home with several men actively trying to kill him, and the car with two cops driven off the road.

This right here. Tourists think of Spain as a theme park or something.
Reminds me of the time in RE6 where Leon for some reason hesitates with shooting the zombie President.
My girlfriend was watching me play right as I entered the town. I just snuck around the side, came up behind an old lady innocently raking and silently stabbed her in the throat. She was like, "what the hell that lady was minding her own business doing her chores!" I felt bad but you know, I gotta cleanse the town.
This ^
Also this ^
😂🤣
Don't you assume control of Leon? If it's a question for you, why even raise the gun and pull the trigger? Why not go through the game on the defensive? Knife parry only play through?
Walking round those woods with that creepy music playing? Not surprised he kills everyone. Leon also never uses the toilet in the game and not once does he get his sleeve caught on a door handle.
It's worse in the remake, no?
In the original, the cops drop Leon off, asking him to go to the house and investigate while mocking him. When Leon finds the house, the door is already open so Leon technically doesn't break in. He also never snoops around, immediately finding the owner to ask him for info before turning around to leave, when he is suddenly attacked. After being forced to kill the villager, other villagers ram the police car with a truck, cutting off his only espace route, and he's forced to keep moving forward.
In the remake, Leon breaks into a closed house, snoops around investigating, and he always had the option of turning back to the vehicle before breaking into the first house.
Are you really asking why didn't he strictly follow police procedures in a Resident Evil game?!
Yeah, he was obviously working with Spanish authorities and probably given jurisdiction while following up a lead on the president's missing daughter.
You know what else wouldn't fly in the real world? Zombie parasites that explode giant squishy tentacles out of people's heads.
Yeah, this. You could probably question the events of any videogame that happen in a 'real-world' setting with this mindset.
In the remake the two Spanish cops have gone ahead and Leon is wondering what's taking them so long, at which point he goes to investigate.
