And the idea that a virus is not 100% effective and that there are a significant number of naturally immune people out there, rather than it needing to be the MacGuffin plot point and the narrative avoiding all bite wounds.

Fucking tired of those Resident evil games/movies and it's unrealistic genetics!

That's it, we're injecting you with the lizard-man genes. Have fun jumping through mansion windows the rest of your life, dweeb!

Why you got to remind me about that dog

My grandfather was a big horror aficionado and played Resident Evil when I was growing up, and he always said that and the Hunter intro were the scariest parts for him.

OMG someone that played resident evil is a grandfather? I really never felt as old as now.

He was old when he played it. My mother said that when she was growing up in the 70s and 80s my grandparents always had the latest game consoles, and were reluctant to share with their kids (ie her).

He was the coolest grandfather.

Later i figured he was no teen anymore, if he played while you were growing up.

He really sounds pretty cool.

[–] PugJesus@lemmy.world 4 points 2 months ago (1 children)

He was. I miss him terribly.

Well you honor his memory by carrying on his love of the series :)

I tried to make the virus fun. Variety is the spice of life.

[–] BreadOven@lemmy.world 10 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Aksually, it depends on which virus it is /s. (I'm not actually sure, but maybe?).

[–] FinalRemix@lemmy.world 8 points 2 months ago (1 children)

There's T, G, T-Veronica, T-Abyss, Whatever 90 things Lisa is infected with, whatever Wesker is infected with, Whatever Jill is infected with, Plagas, T-Phobos, T-Cameron, Uroboros, Crysalid virus, Mold, and...uh... Werewolfism.

I knew there was a bunch, didn't know there were that many.

I mean the game was called Biohazard in Japan. Resident Evil just sounds like a silly name with the setting rarely in a mansion.

My favorite was the meat tiger with guns.
