A Lifelong Love for Horror

From the time I could pick up a controller, I've been a fan of the Resident Evil video game series. The initial fear of playing Resident Evil 2 as a child, particularly when controlling the character Sherry Birkin, who couldn't fight and could only solve puzzles, was a thrilling experience. The fear of encountering a dog in Resident Evil 1 on GameCube was a defining moment in my gaming life.

The Curiosity of Leon

My interest in Resident Evil 4 was sparked when I wanted to see what happened to the character Leon. I was curious about his storyline, and the gameplay of Resident Evil 4 made the series more approachable for me. It was a turning point in my love for the Resident Evil franchise.

The Joy of Streaming

These days, I often find myself streaming Resident Evil games and creating content about them, particularly around Resident Evil 3. I enjoy the nostalgia and the camaraderie that comes with streaming. It's a way for me to relive the excitement of my gaming past while also engaging with a new generation of fans.

Gaming Preferences: A Balancing Act

When it comes to gaming, I usually prefer playing new games or discovering games I haven't heard of before. Replaying games, especially those I have already beaten several times, is not a top priority for me. I hope this changes in the future, but for now, I'm more focused on exploring new horizons in the gaming world.

The Role of Music and Sound

The choice of music and sound in a Resident Evil 4 remake is a fascinating topic. The difference between the original and remake sounds is striking. The remake's ambient sounds are particularly effective for horror, enhancing the tension and creating an immersive experience.

The Immersion of Playing as Leon

Playing as Leon in Resident Evil is a deeply immersive experience. The use of a guide for puzzles adds an extra layer of challenge, making the game even more exciting. And let's not forget the humorous Easter egg about a lighter and Five Nights at Freddy's cereal. It's these moments that make the Resident Evil series so beloved by fans.

The Legacy of Resident Evil

The Resident Evil series has had a profound impact on the gaming industry, influencing countless games that came after it. It's a testament to the power of a well-crafted horror game that can captivate audiences for over two decades. The series has also given us unforgettable characters and storylines, making it a treasure trove for any gaming enthusiast.

As I look back at my gaming history, I can see the clear influence of Resident Evil on my gaming preferences and the kind of gaming experiences I seek out. It's a series that has shaped me as a gamer, and I'm excited to see where it will take me next. Whether it's through a remake, a new installment, or a return to the roots of the franchise, I'm ready to dive in and experience more of the thrilling horror that Resident Evil has to offer.
