@harsh_boi @slimebigmoney And while some people may not like seeing reused assets, their ability to rework existing assets or animations means faster and less stressful dev time. You can definitely see a few RE9 assets in the preview but it just works.

@AmishWonder @Asmongold @mahirusoldier Comparing the two you can see how they fucked up her model. I guess in the pursuit to push more anime proportions they squished her face down vertically too much which now makes her look like she's 10. If they push her face out vertically more she'd look like an adult.

[Ross Castro @RossCastro]

@TheTurtleBox The main issue is that they squished her face model vertically too much, which is why she looks so young. If they just pushed her face vertically just a little bit she'd still have the tomboy aesthetic but would actually look like an adult.

@JussKB5 @ReddCinema There's really no better soundtrack to "Main Protagonist getting his ass beat" than silence being interrupted by bass boosted punches and kicks.

@Matthew37664642 @DaysUntilFH6 For me I've enjoyed playing them co-op with randoms and friends. It hasn't gotten to the point where it's overstayed its welcome but we'll see how the future events go.

@_Xantilo_ @TifaTheMonk Oh definitely! I think my original tweet was taken the wrong way. I'm sure Matt loves playing Vincent and he's happy for Travis but I'd love to hear a little tongue-in-cheek support for Travis down the line.

@DaiGurrenCobalt @Damioth @Wario64 He straight up asked them about this during his interview he did at his house. The fact they were open enough to communicate about a VA change because he asked about it is kinda surprising. They likely wouldn't have done spoken about if Max didn't bring it up.

@retrodraco @wintermel0n13 @paradoomed This has been the art style Resident Evil has adopted and it works for it. It's why there's an appealing look to the character models. They're using hyper realistic face scans but they exaggerate features by like 5% and it works really well.

[Ross Castro @RossCastro]

@ElasticLov @FGC_Daily People want new characters. It's likely much better to have returning characters later on in the game's life instead of introducing new characters in the final season pass. New characters are welcome, I'm curious to see how they play.

[Ross Castro @RossCastro]

@Matthew37664642 @DaysUntilFH6 I think what helps is the majority of the online modes can be played co-op and you don't need to win the multiplayer challenge. I like that you can just casually play a game mode and get the reward.

@MartenusPrince @TechieUltimatum "We"? I'm glad you're speaking for everyone lol. While I agree a story isn't super important for a driving game, when it's executed well it's great. When it's done poorly it can hurt the game. I think trying to go for it makes a game standout.

[Ross Castro @RossCastro]

@romlib_ @xaviersonline_ Resident Evil / Capcom does this much better I think. While the use face models, they also edit them in a very subtle way. Grace in RE9 looks like a realistic person but her eyes are very slightly enlarged more than normal. It lets RE games have this "realistic anime" look.

[Ross Castro @RossCastro]

@tokoya It's a dumb game that has really smart parts of it. While the car physics aren't as hyper realistic as other simulation driving games, it's realistic enough to offer some more nuance. There's a layer to learning how to get better at driving but you can also drive like an idiot.

[Ross Castro @RossCastro]

@RB26DETT_N1K @f4micom It definitely has personality, just not in the areas where it's actively trying to have one lol. The map and world does so much heavy lifting. There's a charm to driving around the Japanese rural countryside and ramming into a regional mascot while listening to city pop.

[Ross Castro @RossCastro]

@MartenusPrince @TechieUltimatum I feel like majority of people do? The narrative that exists in Horizon 6 is the weakest part of that game. Give me rivals, stakes, and likable characters. FH6 is already a fantastic game, but it could be so much better if there was a great story to participate in too.

[Ross Castro @RossCastro]

@Twist92331616 @ForzaHorizon @Acura From what I've seen, the creators of the Vinyl get their accounts completely banned from Multiplayer services. If you see anything just report it. From what I understand you get a free wheelspin if it they acted on the report.

[Ross Castro @RossCastro]

@UnknownSIayer69 @MaverickGames They quite clearly hired actors and motion captured them for the game's story, so no. If the protagonist(s?) skin color triggers you then that's a you problem. I'm very curious about seeing more about the game since it feels like it has aspects that Horizon 6 was lacking in.

[Ross Castro @RossCastro]

@Weil__ In multiplayer after a race is planned, just like Monster Hunter there's this period where everyone is preparing for it by deciding what car to take, upgrading and tuning it, then changing the look of the car. The prep before and then the actual race is a MH gameplay loop lol.

[Ross Castro @RossCastro]

@Weil__ Playing with two other friends online, I had the same realization. We'd have the person who had the least wristbands to be convoy later and tell us what their next race was and like Monster Hunter we'd weaken our cars(weapons) or try something new just for fun.
