Leon Kennedy "actually quite a bad match for horror," says RE producer.

They're saying he's too bad ass for horror and wouldn't recoil in horror at the sound of a bucket dropping.

How does everyone feel about this? Does this mean we won't get to play as Leon and Chris unless it's an action game?

Wtf, is Neogaf no longer safe to browse in public? 😂

JD Williams seems to have plastered the site with women's lingerie adverts.

You can't even get away while scrolling, it's repeated multiple times on a single scroll.

I’m guessing nothing happened in regard to the Red Dead Redemption 2 tease that that guy was tweeting about.

Just been playing some Death Stranding 2 this weekend. Am quite enjoying it so far.

Played so much DS2, great game, very similar to the first and MUCH easier even on brutal. The world is much more forgiving, its clearly streamlined to be less stressful, but that was part of the enjoyment of the first game, getting into bad situations. That said the combat is much improved and the design of enemy bases and variety in missions is great. The first fight against fake Snake was incredible, MGSV like (though not as good). There is a lot to like, some feels like a tiny step back but still a blast.

They'll probably go the route they did with Chris in RE7 and 8. He'll have a small segment in the end or post-game where he'll basically come in overpowered and kick everything's ass.

I’m thinking that he’ll be more involved then that. I think they’re doing a “reverse Metal Gear Solid 2” here. Showing the new girl in the trailers and demo making people think that you’ll play most of the game as her instead having most of the game played as Leon.

He will have a bigger role than Chris did in 7 and 8, it should be a split game. Probably more like CV.

From more than one source this is what I have heard as well. Two protagonists. Which in a single player campaign, it's not something I want in every game, but if correctly directed is a good direcotrial and gameplay choice.

Might have more to do with your browser history and associated cookies

When I go to NEOGAF I get nothing but ads for people with high IQ's looking to invest in real estate and for luxury automobiles.

I get hooker ads....I meant hookah!

A theory I read is that it's a workaround to the financial uncertainty due to tarriffs. It easier to raise prices on Switch 1 rather than 2 and likely decrease demand for their newest console. I'm expecting something similar in the US.

Well, a lot of their ads are served up by IP tracing. They tend to show you ads for things you've searched for before. For instance, a while back I was looking at sofas online, and now I always get an ad for theater styled movie sofas. So is there anything you want to tell us about your search history? 😂

That said, I have noticed they're starting to serve some random ads. I just did a quick search over there (for the record, I still see the couch ads), but there's also a banner for fruit flavored beverages. I've never searched for that before, so either they've got some separate deals or they're getting really desperate for ad content, and they will serve up anyone who is willing to use their views.
