Note from me:
This is the single longest video analysis project I've done thus far, just shy of a full hour in length. My editor paid so much attention to detail, and after many, many nights of editing, produced visuals that align very closely with all of the very particular scenes that I had envisioned. A large portion of the video's effectiveness depended on his ability to interpret hundreds of lines of my written instructions and improvise where necessary. Huge thanks to him for working diligently through this nightmare of a project.

I love the attention to detail here. I always thought Stacy Kelso was supposed to be Misty from the games. Trent is one of my favorite characters in the book series and I wish they would do more with him. He always lights up the page for me. Glad you mentioned him! Overall great work!

Very interesting video again. I was thinking the game Haunting Ground had a similar villain to Oswell E. Spencer called Lorenzo who was also obsessed with transcending his human limitations but sought it through alchemy rather than scientific experiments - and he too was a bad influence on those around him corrupting them in a similar way.

This is turning out to be a great series! I remember reading these back in the day as they came out and usually give them a read every couple of years. Still have my original copies, although they're definitely showing some wear these days. I kind of wish S.D. Perry would adapt the later games into novels, but starting with RE4 the series took a different feel and having them end where they did almost seems fitting.

Oh man I didn’t want this video to end. The investigation into the different types of evil, permeated mostly by Umbrella, that reside among our characters is a really good angle and also a really suitable theme for a series titled “Resident Evil”. I just made a video essay about Welcome To Raccoon City, and mentioned how it felt like there was a missed opportunity to examine different types of evil. Especially for a film that used the tagline “Witness the beginning of evil” during its marketing. This kinda stuff is what RE is all about and I was fascinated by your analysis that once again gives justice to an often overlooked lore. Excited for future vids, and now to binge past ones.

Hey Beggy! Another haunting video I see! I wonder why SD Perry stopped after Seven books? Maybe there’s only so much you can write about the “main” event of RE that is the Mansion Incident and Raccoon City incident. Like where would you go after the first two official games? Could they focus on Leon in Spain or Chris in Africa? I wonder that sometimes because compared to the Halo novels they established so much lore before, during, and after the mainline games.

@BeggyBeggBegg Жыл бұрын

:) an RE4 novel written by S.D. Perry is a VERY popular request among fans. I'd LOVE an RE5 one too, regardless of who wrote it (so long as it delivered).

@woodsgump Жыл бұрын

@@BeggyBeggBegg Like I wouldn’t mind a RE4 novel that’d be cool to read anywhere same as RE5 😃 it’d probably be much scarier to read how Leon feels and thinks during his time in Spain compared to the player controlling him.
