Resident Evil 7 Spoiler Thread

I hated Chris's design in RE5 and 6 anyway. Looked like a completely different person.

To me, this actually looks like a next gen rendition of how he was designed in REmake. Sorta like the real life ish rendering of Nathan Drake in Uncharted 4.

No way.. fuck that character model to hell.

As the steroid Chris has already proven.. they've changed characters looks way more in the past.. and for the worse too.

This is MUCH better imo.



Link to that thread?

I will never understand the hate for RE5 and Re6 chris.
"He's bad because he has muscles", like what? They explain why he hit the gym. Not to mention it finally gave him a face where he stood out. I can understand preferring the REmake chris. But to say the 5 and 6 looks are bad? That's a crazy to me.

As for this RE6 chris I don't mind it per se. It's more how radical of a change it is again.

I liked RE5's Chris because it introduced the character's second and final personality trait after "dutiful": "muscular." It's a shame he did it all for nothing really.

If that's Chris, then I'm fine with it. My standards are evidently are lot lower than other people so changes like this don't bug me.

That being said, I can understand why this might be a shock to some people. I remember how confused I was when I saw RE5 Chris for the first time.

I agree with this, never cared for him personality wise but he indeed stood out from a visual standpoint.

This design is basically "who?"

So wanted to put this together real quick.


As I said i'm not mad over this. More just confused. The game engines change, so designs are gonna change along with it. However I think we have a odd jump with the RE enging chris. My biggest complaint is it looks like he somehow got younger, and while it might be the lighting his hair isn't even dark. This definitely seems like case of using the mocap actor as the base for the character (Which we know was done for RE7, since that is how Jack Baker was used). Really odd that no one at capcom thought to edit it at least a little bit. The claire and jill changes in rev were less drastic than this.
 
I actually hope it's Chris, he looks as weary as I would expect someone who's gone through all that he has. He also no longer has his insanely over muscular physique.

Well, that kind of Chris would look completely stupid in this game.

I get that people don't like change... but for me, this character model is much closer to the REmake model than RE5/6 were.

I'd say he looks older than the previous pictures.

But...why would Chris be with Umbrella? This makes no sense. It literally feels like some dude is pretending to be Chris, only for the reveal to be that you've just been evac'd by Umbrella. And who the fuck says "I'm Redfield"? Trust me. This is some Umbrella spec ops.

I understand the hate for 5's, muscles were really just too big and the outfit design exaggerated it further.
STARS and BSAA costumes based on the same build looked amazing however.
