Be me wishing this episode into existence. listening one trophy away from Platniuming RE: Village!

Michael

Man Overboard

Let the merchant host again! Justice for the merchant!

Dead Aim is really neat! It’s a light gun game! Bust’em out them pistols Heather!

Jeff Stacey

The original RE 2 is one of my top 3 of all time. I fn love this franchise so so much. Im glad this is an episode

Devan Golden

For Matt to say he is at the point where he has to play whatever new Final Fantasy to come out but won’t go back to 15 is bonkers to me

Hearing Matt’s MGS1 vs MGS2 analogy is the most I have ever been annoyed by this podcast (that I love so dearly).

I might just return the favour by pointing out that RE4 remake is my least favourite of the resident evil remakes by far, massively inferior to the HD remaster of the original RE4 imo

The flower asking if it’s funny that a flower is talking immediately after Matt brought up Leon’s plant quip was excellent comedic timing

Grant Benda

great job on finally choosing a segment name that makes me think of "smegma"

Dr. Pepper (for mama)

As soon as I got a driver’s license, I ate a minimum of (4) Double Decker Tacos after every single high school golf practice. That’s five days a week, three months a year, for three years. I guess this is the appropriate time for me to admit that I was the Birdie Wing apologist guy. Sorry for everything.

Way Singleton

Not gonna lie .. thought the talking flower was a bit at first and that Nick was pretending to be a flower ... because he just sounds like just a guy! 🤣

Ethan Lischin

If the flower ever says "Hey Buddy..." just run

What’s up with the discord? Did you guys get hacked?

The noise I made at "he tells the time but it might not be correct"

Paul Villanueva

I'm surprised they didn't land on Glen Powell for the Leon casting, he's the right age and he'd be great at being a pretty-boy himbo.

Trev Head

Apodaca is a real one. long live the double decker. best TB menu item hands down

Ryan

It's a real choice to play the casting game with someone who doesn't know any actors.

I never fucked with resident evil besides 4 but since the 2 remake I’ve done 2/3/4 remake and just finished 7 and halfway through 8, 8 is by far my favorite of them all

I’ve bounced off the earlier ones and am on the final boss and 8 and it absolutely rips!

I really fell off the series after 4, the change of direction was okay but the controls were very clunky with the awful GameCube controller. Didn't ever give 5 a chance since the reliance on coop wasn't appealing at all and the talk of the racism in the game not helping either. But then Retronauts did an episode recently about RE2 and that got me to jump in and give the remake a try and ended up really enjoying it and getting the plat, then moving on to the RE3 remake too and getting the plat for that one as well before moving on to the RE4 remake and really enjoying what they did with that and the Ada DLC, don't think I'll get the plat there though, there's no way I'm getting S ranks on the shooting gallery stuff. So then I decided to go ahead and give RE5 a try, so now playing the PS4 version on a PS5 and it sure feels like a PS3 game and plays a lot like the original RE4. The coop partner stuff was way overblown in the contemporary reviews, can play the game perfectly fine without another person. But the controls are really bad, the laser sight aiming thing is really bad and I always end up aiming too far to the left. But then there's the content of the game, at first I was thinking while not great, the African setting wasn't too insensitive and kinda standard for how things were portrayed in media and entertainment of the time. Then I got to chapter 3... now I see, this is more racist than an 80s movie and its astounding that anyone at Capcom thought this was okay. It's quite shocking. Still don't know how I'll feel by the time I get to 7 and 8, really not a fan of first person games at all, just can't get into it at all and it never feels like I'm doing anything other than just moving a camera around.

Jordan Ewers

It’s not as easy as Wiger makes it look, is it Matt?!?!

Phillip

really? That's an interesting take. I feel the gameplay in the original is quite clunky compared to modern games. And I really enjoyed how they redid a lot of the set pieces and made it all fit together a lot better (as the 2 and 3 remakes did). And while I was disappointed at a few of the big set pieces missing from the game, some of it did get moved and ended up in the Ada DLC which was also quite good.

Phillip

I played through FF15 when it came out and got the plat, haven't touched it at all since then and couldn't even tell you anything about it. I was cautiously optimistic about FF16, but when that demo came out and the game really isn't anything more than a PlatinumGames style button mashing action game I couldn't bring myself to be anything other than massively disappointed that they would make a game like this and make it a mainline game, I guess at this point I'll just expect FF17 to be a first person shooter

Sssiiimmmooonnn

I personally felt like the RE engine is poorly tuned for the gameplay of RE4, I missed the arcade feel of the original, and didn’t feel like the atmosphere worked as well as it did on the previous remakes - but that’s just me 🙏🏻

Elliot Reynolds

I LOVE the long podcast!! that's a 5 star run time
