\o/ I WOOOON OH MY GOD.

Chapters 6-1 - END



THEY'RE ON A BOAT, MOTHERFUCKER.

I did wonder what significance Excella dropping the drugs were. TL;DR they find her, she makes an escape and drops one of two cases of some weird injection stuff.

The biggest revelation was about Wesker when he thought about meeting with Spencer. He reveals that-- oh my god oh my god-- there was a project called Project W. - and the tests were called the Wesker Children, Albert Wesker was MANUFACTURED. And the only one who survived. Files you get later reveal that he was subject #13.

HOLY DICKS WHAT? RE why you do this and make our brains asplode. Now it's like. Wow. All the reports and flashbacks and working with Birkin and everything - when I go to read back on them it's going to be such a different experience!

Excella transforms. Wesker is what "whatevs" and she's all "WRYYYYY." Psh I think the entire fandom could tell he wouldn't care if you exploded Excella. I THINK HER BOOBS SHOOK THOUGH. I was just. Amazed by that.

Excella's fight was craaaaaazy though. You send coordinates to a SATELLITE LASER, the gun takes a few seconds to lock on correctly but when it does, GIANT BEAM OF LIGHT FROM SKY-- I should emphasize, Excella was HUGE when she tranformed. Though why the laser didn't sink the BOAT THEY WERE ON A BOAT is beyond me.

Jill gets in contact with them after that and tells them that Wesker's superhuman strength comes from a virus, but it's unstable. So he has to inject himself every once in a while with a serum to keep it balanced enough. He has to inject a PRECISE AMOUNT into his body. She mentions that injecting more than the normal dose should make it act like a poison to him -- and Sheva still has one of the things Excella dropped, which lo and behold, is the serum.

I could sort of tell where this was going to go. Even though I didn't want Wesker to wind up transforming like every generic endboss, at least it looked like they went about it in a good way. As in, him not willfully doing it as a last resort. So I was cool with that.

The first human battle was a pain in the ass until I figured out whet you had to do. Send Sheva to distract him, try to shoot him from behind a few times, get ahold of him to inject the serum. I kept failing, and finally got him with the rocket launcher. You shoot, he grabs (BECAUSE HE'S THAT BADASS) and while he's holding it, you're partner shoots it so it explodes and he's down enough to get him.

IT WAS ALL EPIC AND AMAZING. Wesker loading up the plane full of biohazards to shoot around the world, but if someone shot him down to stop him, the virus would spread anyway. Jumping on the back of the plane and the most epic QTE ever as you have a SHOWDOWN on the plane. Plane dangling and grabbing over a VOLCANO! And Wesker faaaaaaaalls!

And the plane crashes.

FINAL BOSS ULTIMATE VOLCANO SHOWDOWN OMFG.

So Wesker this whole time has just been like GWAU RAGH HOW DARE YOU INJECT ME WITH THIS SHIT but. But when he comes out at the end there.

~ SHIRTLESS WESKER ~

It was my dream come true.

And then he sticks his fist into the Uroboros tank and mutates. :( He was already fucked up enough as it was because of Chris and Sheva forcing the overdose of serum to him, so I'm guessing he had nothing else to try at that point.

The boss battle was HARD AS FUCK but also easy. It's really hard to figure out what to do because at the start, he's flinging his arm around with his knock you into the volcano instant death and you can't run past him. It's very trial and error and you will possibly die a few times. But once you figure it out, he goes after Sheva, you hold him back until she can get to you safely, and you have the final fight in the center.

I died the first time, on the second part, after running out of ammo and trying everything to keep going. But the second time around, it was ... fast, with the ammo. Once you shoot the glowy center after it appears, he goes down at a point and you jump on him from behind, hold him in place and tell Sheva to SHOOT THROUGH ME (it was so end of Ayashi no Ceres I was like aaaaah). Sheva opts to knive him instead. And down he goes.

Jill comes in a helicopter to save you, and Wesker has his one last hurrah in the lava and you and Sheva rocket launcher him. Chris also has the most gayeast best line. "SUCK ON THIS, WESKER." I demand flashback smutfic of them with that line used!! Wesker would probably backhand him if he ever said that in bed.

ANYWAY. Ending was short. Basically "Sometimes I wonder if it's all worth fighting for. For a future without fear ... it is." Fly away into the sunset, cue Pray and me orgasming wildly.

And then you unlock Mercenary mode and ... you can play through the game controlling Sheva. Which is AWESOME. There are SO many bonus features, so when you beat the game, you're still not going to put it down for a while. Unlockables in Mercenaries, you can trade in points for alternate outfits and figures. Chris and Sheva's first unlockable ones (Safari and Clubbin' are soooo weird). The figures are awesome, they're basically model viewers you can close up on to get better looks.

I took a glance at the files. And now I am going to geek SO HARD ABOUT THEM because these are amazing and RE fans are going to joygasm:

They go into Wesker and Spencer's meeting a little better, I LOVE how they tie it into the reports and how he remarked all those times that he could never read Spencer's intentions. Wesker was a huge part of Spencer's Utopia plan. It was called the Wesker Plan because that was the chief researcher of the plan's name. They took tons of kids from parents of "superior intellect." They went to genetically alter the childrens' will and knowledge, and the file says if it wouldn't work, he himself would instill his values onto the children using any means.

All the kids in the experiment were given the surname Wesker, and were all put into controlled environments unknowingly. They were free apparently, but put into the best schools and secretly monitored. And the one who did the best was Wesker, who was chosen to come to Umbrella. They tested viruses on the children, some by force, some by stealth. The thing we see Wesker inject himself with that Birkin gave him in UC was that virus. Most of them died. Wesker disappeared after that since that was after the mansion incident.

Also they were all programmed to WANT to seek Spencer out, which is ... yes. The flashbacks. XD But once he knew the truth of all of this, he more or less "free" since he'd been told everything, so killed Spencer. This part was apparently unknown to Spencer.

JILL'S FILE MENTIONS CARLOS. \o/ THAT MADE ME SO GEEKILY HAPPY.

Also holy fuck they explain that when Jill and Wesker fell, he took her unconscious body with him, healed her up and put her into cryogenic sleep. When they were reading her at one point, they found an abnormality and traces of the T-Virus from RE3. Her being asleep reactivated the dormant virus, but it disappeared for good. BUT it left her body with strong antibodies, which is why she resisted so much. The stuff he gave jill to control her was something that let her be controlled and gave her all that strength.

Sheva's parents died when she was 8. Everyone in her village was killed and she was hiding in her house waiting for her parents baww. OVERALL she had a pretty crappy childhood. I love her backstory.

SOB THAT IS ALL FOR NOW. Wow that game was fucking amazing. CANNOT WAIT TO PLAYTHROUGH AGAIN SOON. 8D

The game was beyond awesome, and your post pretty much summarizes my feelings bout the game. My only real 'complain' about the ending was whole Sheva and the Rocket Launcher. just for the old times sake that one should have been Jill, since Wesker was in Tyrant-wannabe form... and the whole helicopter thing so reminiscent of the very first RE 1, and this game really feels like the last on with any S. T. A. R. S. member DDD: I liked the whole explanation about Wesker's (shirtless wesker ftw) super powers, this game pretty much wraps any lose ends, and I'm pleased that CAPCOM actually cared for us longtime fans.

on something more random.. How long did it take you to finish the game? It took me about 10 hours and I died 9 times on that final boss second part, just kept shooting him with all my collected magnum rounds until I figured out how to kill him DD:

Yeah, I agree. Jill should have shot his ass too. Especially considering he had her under control that whole time to boot.

And oh ... man I forget. I WILL NEED TO CHECK THAT NEXT TIME I PLAY. XD

I JUST BEAT IT LIKE

AN HOUR AND A HALF AGO

SHIRTLESS WESKER HOLY FUCK IT WAS SO UNNECESSARY BUT OHGOD WOW

I actually don't take as kindly towards the Spencer-Wesker information as you. :( My reaction was more like "JESUS CHRIS MORE RETCONS ARE YOU KIDDING ME."

HEY. IF WE CAN GET A COUPLE OF SHEVA ASS SHOTS IN THE GAME. WE ALSO DESERVE SHIRTLESS WESKER TO BALANCE THAT OUT.

The way they did it. It's like. They carefully chose little things to tie it back TO, to make it make some sort of sense of being true. But at the same time, it's really clearly not something they'd been planning to do from the start. XD
Sunday, March 15th, 2009 02:06 pm (UTC)
I... OMG... YES. I want to respond thoroughly to everything you just said, but I feel like I would be repeating myself from my long-ass post I made yesterday. So, yeah. I won't do that.

Chris also has the most gayeast best line. "SUCK ON THIS, WESKER." I demand flashback smutfic of them with that line used!! Wesker would probably backhand him if he ever said that in bed.

LAWL. OMG, I AGREE. I mean, Jesus, Chris. I lul'd pretty hard when he said that. Then, when I was forcing my sister to watch some cutscenes with me after I beat the game, she was like, "DID CHRIS REALLY JUST SAY THAT?" Hahahha. Chris, you dork.
Monday, March 16th, 2009 12:28 am (UTC)
I can totally see Chris getting that moment of TOPPING and saying that to Wesker. Then Wesker is just like "No. No. Remember just who it is you're sleeping with here."
