I just wish there were scenario A and B for RE2 remake. Capcom whitewashed Chief Irons being a rapist. OG RE2 was cool because they took different paths even through scenario A.
Can't have controversy in your zombie game about a pharma company creating biological weapons and viruses that turn people into zombies.

I don't believe he's ever suggested to be a rapist in the original game itself. He is definitely shown and proven to be a sociopathic sadist in the extreme, given his underground torture dungeon and all of his journal entries where he expresses glee at killing and/or getting everyone he knows killed off, compounded by his taxidermy "hobby". It was really only in the S.D. Perry novel that he was also characterized as a rapist, given that we get a pretty uncomfortable description of how he was about to rape Claire before he got chestbursted.

But other than that, I agree 100%.

When you leave the S.T.A.R.S. office a fax come though that details some of Iron's history, which includes two accusations of rape when he was in collage.

there is a file where it says he is in fact a rapist.

In that, they cheapened the core mechanic that made that game unique compared to the rest of the series. It really is my fundamental problem with the game while everything else is minor in comparison. You never take a step backward with content with a remake.

This is why I'm pessimistic about 4make. Regardless of what they say publicly, I still anticipate a lot of the game not in there. What exactly will not be there is anyone's guess. I definitely see quite few enemy types not in there. I feel like that's almost a guarantee.

I'll be damned, you're right. I don't know how the hell I spaced on this considering I was replaying OG RE2 a couple of months ago and I even picked up and read that fax.

Dude, when I got that note in RE2 I was so intrigued. Especially because it came from an outside FBI agent that Chris contacted, it made the game feel so detailed. Same with that file in the archive where one of the police reported seeing Hunk's team in the sewer. It's little stuff like that that can make a game feel really immersive and alive.

I actually think Irons is one of the creepiest characters in the series, and I think having only Claire interact with him was intentional. Given the shit he does to mayor's daughter, dealing with him while playing as a female character is all the more unsettling.

Wow that's interesting. I have to get the original RE2 and replay that again as I can't remember this particular nugget. The old games sure had a lot of detail packed into them.
 
And just think, in 1.5 he was originally suppose to be a good guy.
I think that's true. If you've seen the early build of it that was released several years back, when you get to his office which looks entirely different, he's injured on his couch.

Although I think he's far more interesting being insane.
 
The island is confirmed to still be in RE4 remake. I mean, I suppose that isn’t a big surprise, but hopefully every area is still in the game. Rate me optimistic.
That was the one area i couldve lived without in RE4

Female characters are better horror protagonists, period.

Not trying to go manosphere/incel whatever here but theres a degree of innocence and frailty thats just naturally attributed to young women, and thats why seeing Irons looming over a fucking dissected lady on his desk hits harder when playing as Claire, *another* young lady just like the one before her eyes, than it would if you played through the same scene as Leon, the policeman

That isn't controversial hot take or anything. I think anyone can agree the whole final girl thing in horror films work just for the reasons you outlined.

Leon is my favorite male lead but my favorite protagonist of the series has always been Jill as early as the first game.
