  • For me it was RESIDENT EVIL: Code Veronica.

    My dad bought a Dreamcast in early 2001. I was 7 years old and long story short, he also bought Code Veronica and Maken X which both were the fuel of my nightmares back then. My English proficiency was barely enough to understand the menus and such, but I couldn’t follow the story. I could never get past the first cabin and all I remembered were the burning, pale zombies, twitching on the ground.

    Years later in my teens, I bought it when it was released for PS3 and I couldn’t get past the first half hour of gameplay due to extreme boredom. I thought it took itself too seriously and was super mediocre.

    Now, at almost 30, I downloaded it for my iPad and I’m having a blast. It’s not serious or boring AT ALL… all the contrary; it’s the goofiest, corniest RE game I’ve ever played and that’s saying a lot considering "Master of Unlocking”, “Jill Sandwich” and “boulder punching Chris” are a thing. Granted, it has a ton of annoying backtracking, but once you get to the dialogue bits, the cringyness makes all the backtracking worth it.


  • “See, to me that speaks to a lack of awareness.” and now "To me this says you’re intentionally looking for something to get offended about.”

    Nice way of going around life just making wild assumptions about everything so your imagination carving for drama gets pleased, but no one is getting remotely offended. Plus you’re wrong, ask any Spanish speaking person where Cali is and they’ll say Colombia.

    Illuminate me with your logic then… If I say I’m from Mexico, am I from New Mexico USA since it’s much more recognizable in the broader “English and Spanish speaking culture”? Or am I from Mexico City since it has more residents?

    But all righty then, let’s just inherit the Reddit way and dismiss this entire thread (buncho’ offended foreigners looking to get offended, pshh…), and just default every conversation, place, name, and topic to the USA. 👍
