Just skip it, which you should do anyway Give him what's just happened with him Yeah, basically What happens is some impacts character Tim? I can't remember. Oh, he's playing Resident Evil too much. Basically he's staying up playing it really late is getting into his head and it starts affecting his sort of waking life and he starts seeing people as zombies and freaking out and stuff and it factors into the climax of the episode in a Genuinely very funny way, but I'd recommend you watch space anyway in general because it's it's very funny. Very very good and funny Right, but because this episode exists and it's all about Resident Evil 2 and about zombies
... Yes, of course, well to do Shaun of the Dead but spaced is what they did not first but before that It's channel four. It's very very funny.

Very very good and funny Right, but because this episode exists and it's all about Resident Evil 2 and about zombies This is one big reason why a few years later Edgar Wright and Simon Pegg make Shaun of the Dead, which is a full-on zombie Yeah Yeah, that's excellent.

Hello welcome back to retronauts and welcome to 2026 Why is it 2026? Well, that's a long story, but the short version is it's 30 years since 1996 and 1996 is when we had Resident Evil the survival horror defining classic I would say and This is a big year the celebrating 30 years of Resident Evil so there's no better time for us to revisit the sequel and the sequel again because this game had a sequel twice and Both times it made a huge impact on the company and I would argue video games as a whole

Where if you go down to the lab where you have to log into the computer if you type in a Kuma and do something Else, of course, you can then play the game as a Kuma and like throw fireballs at zombies That's not real. They just made that up. They took a I think they took a screenshot of Street Fighter EX alpha to get like a 3d Akuma and then they edited him into Resident Evil 2 But that's not real. But of course today Fans have made this so if you went ahead and Google that you can play the game as a Kuma with a…

I mean I'm gonna try Should I'm I'm by no means a Resident Evil speedrunner challenge runner, but I kind of had the same progression with some of the later ones and It is all just routing hmm when you don't know the route and you're just kind of organically Experiencing a Resident Evil game for the first time like you make a lot of mistakes And…

He's a guy in a booth, but he is acting for the entire booth, you know, great great guy great great work. Yeah, he's wonderful also bummer for me They took out the 3d models when you pick up items You know in the original Resident Evil whenever he picked up an item. It was a fully 3d generated like object you could rotate and indeed sometimes you had to rotate it and examine it and like open it up or whatever and That's kind of a staple the series these days But for some reason in Resident Evil 2 and I think…

Whatever, but I think that the promise is more. There's more that there's like it's it's a better idea than I think an execution But it's still a cool execution. I'm just being you know me I Get it yet. I get it. Yeah, and yet He is a better version of the nemesis than the nemesis himself is in the Resident Evil 3 remake Yeah, it's funny how that it because Resident Evil like I would argue mr.

Yes, you are number one contributor in terms of volume. I think ah, well if you want if you want quantity over quality I'm definitely your guy. Thank you I'm kidding. I'm kidding. Everything I do is impeccable. But yes, you can find me on the internet by looking for fight club Feit is my last name Club that is a weapon not found in any Resident Evil as far as I know It's more about guns and knives, but are there any are there any clubs in Resident Evil?

You will enjoy this game even more even though you might so yeah until you yourself died The flip side here the other character the replacement for Elsa Walker is Claire Redfield Claire Redfield Younger sister of Chris in Resident Evil 1 now. I say younger sister because Everyone in Resident Evil 1 is like in their 20s so Claire Redfield younger sister is Canon she's 19 years old in this game, so she is actually a child You know I understand age of consent legal adult like she can she's allowed to like smoke…

Yeah, like they're in the sewers like they shouldn't make that sound on the sewer walls like this it should be like all slick and wet but no they make this sort of Sound everywhere and it's like oh god, they're in here even though Yeah, even though as Resident Evil 2 plays out you almost never have to fight them if you just run They will almost never catch you because like they're on the way. It's it's weird I don't say this to undermine any sort of arachnophobia because I know it's a serious thing I I love…

Yes, I understand I Don't want to get too much in the weeds here because this is not a retro game

so you can have the a character hoard all this stuff and not leave it for the B character or you can say I've got enough ammo right now. I don't need this gun, you know. Mm-hmm, which I think it's really it's really clever from a story Tongue standpoint and from a replay value standpoint because you know like Resident Evil one This is not that long a game like one scenario But because there's so many different routes and different sort of permutations you could play this game again and again and again and Be…

It is not it does not deserve this crazy name, but unlike the first game the first game had two characters Chris and Jill you can play as Chris You can play as Jill whoever you play as the other person basically is locked in a cell and you have to rescue them That's how it works Resident Evil 2 is far more complicated because both Leon and Claire start the game together and Both Leon and Claire and the game together into their escape So depending on which character you choose the other character is doing things…

With regular zombies because they will immediately get you when that happens in my experience, you know But like I want to stress this don't get me wrong. I do think he's cool. I don't think he's not cool I I do think he's cool I wonder if I wonder if the way he works is one of the reasons why they've changed blue herbs in the resume because In Resident Evil in the plastic Resident Evil games blue herbs are only for dealing with poison. That's all they do Like right. Are you poisoned use a blue herb? Are you not…

Okay, this is something I've been dancing around since we started this podcast. So this game obviously was not released in a finished state. And the sort of going reasoning is that they wanted to make this competitive for the eSports scene, like we want to get this out for pro players to play. So we can get some eyeballs on streaming. eSports is starting to become sort of a global thing, not just in in Asia with Starcraft in, you know, League of Legends and other countries and stuff like that. Like, people are starting to make money off of this, we need to get our hands into that pie. So this game was clearly meant to be like basically made for hardcore players to play online so they can get ready for Capcom Pro Tours, which they were just starting to launch around this time too. So this only basically came out with modes to train you to play competitively against other people. Even the survival mode is kind of like a dummy for you to learn to do some of that stuff.
