I’ve recently played Resident Evil 6 for the 1st time after playing Resident Evil 4 (an absolute masterpiece) & Resident 5 (a pretty good game). I was already aware of the hate this game got over the years. But after experiencing it, it’s only bad in an artificial way. Like yeah, it’s nothing like the classic games and it’s too much in the action category.

Otherwise, as someone who loves action games, it’s a pretty fun game. Especially in Mercenaries Mode, where it’s fun to mow down body-horror themed enemies. As a Resident Evil game, it’s pretty bad. But…as an action third person shooter with splatter punks, it’s quite well executed

    I think sitcoms are an art form, people compare them to high price dramas and they aren’t. Sitcoms are your “friends” after a long day if work that you can count on to be reliable and low pressure. You watch them not for a good story necessarily, but to unwind after a day. Sadly I think that’s been lost over the last few years.

      Exactly, you watch them to just watch a bunch of characters get into crazy hijinks that aren’t real. Sometimes the writers throw in a serious storyline or some lessons, but for the most part they’re not meant to be taken seriously.
