Darkside Chronicles Official Thread

[Archelon]

Damn. I really wish Capcom would release a guidebook. Like, now. I'm missing so many files, and I'm getting that restless, anxious, OCD feeling when I look at all the missing shit in the Archive. There are several files I desperately want to find.

Are there even any files that mention Sherry? So far, all the files I've collected in RE2 scenario really haven't said anything new. It's aggravating.

I hate how you have to shoot crap to find crap. I mean, come on.

There are no files detailing Sherry post-RE2. All of the text files from the RE2 section are taken almost directly from the original game. The three audio files are of Sherry and Annette talking over the phone, but they only go up to Sherry getting to the police station.

I've been having a heck of a time unlocking everything, too. I pretty much just started lobbing grenades everywhere in the hopes of finding something. It doesn't work as well as I had initially hoped though, because they don't destroy everything in the environment like in UC.

This is what the fine folks at Project Umbrella are here for...right, News Bot?

What the...? I've been doing all the work for the past three days. XD

But, mother... I want all the files noooooooow!

Well, honestly, I'm sure they are not that hard to find... I just feel impatient.

Oh, and about the mini-game:

Er, by the way, is anyone else getting slaughtered on the Tofu mini-game? Three hits and you're dead. I always die in the same place, when the hordes of tofu begin moving really fast. Do you get anything if you beat it?

I haven't beaten it yet either, and I keep getting killed at the same place you do.

Help, please! ^^;

How do you unlock the Tofu scenario? -And are there any secret scenarios for the CVX section?

Thanks!

You unlock the Tofu scenario by beating the game, and there are no secret scenarios for the CVX section.

I'm lost. People thought the thing with Steve in C:V was dramatic and emotional? Emotional, yes, in the way that I could not stop laughing.

I'll be total honest when I say I actually started crying at that part when I first played it. Granted, I was a kid, and the guy who had been booking it with me suddenly kicked the bucket saving Claire. Yeah. I was upset.

Nowadays, though? When I watch it, and the music starts up after he delivers his 'dramatic' speech, I lost it. I busted out laughing, but the overall sadness of the scene was still there for me.

I dunno if it was because I played it when I was younger or what, but that scene just struck a cord with me. NOT as much as Alfred's, but still. I get a twinge in my chest when I watch it. I was dreading seeing it in DSC for the very reason that 1) the voice wasn't horrendous and 2) Steve was REALLY cute. :c

If they (Capcom) seriously can't put a solid ending on a storyline that has been open ended since 1998, then I don't see a point in having faith they'll close it off at all. Not going to rant, but it's complete truth. We know as much now as we did 11 years ago. Regardless, the game itself was extremely enjoyable, besides not having any sense of closure in a few stories.

Asking a little question here, seeing as I haven't seen it answered on any other forums.

Regarding

Spoiler:

Sherry. Her mother and father both die in the game. Following that, we are told that she is going to be "taken care of" is there anymore mention of Sherry, or appearances? I finishing up the RE: CV scenario, and haven't heard all that much.

haven't played it, but it seems Spoiler:

not onlly sherry is in the US government, but also Manuela. What are they up to? or maybe.... maybe they aren't up to nothing!! hahaha, just gessing, trying to find a hook for RE6

[Yzak]

The dialogue is amazing. And the Code Veronica ones are bordering on adorable, I love the chemistry between Claire and Steve through it so much. ;o;

RE: The end of 2's scenario with Sherry's crying - it broke my heart too.

Celstice: right now the end of RE2's scenario has a scene which explains Spoiler:

show spoiler

that Leon and Sherry were rescued by the US government. They tell Leon they have the authority to do as they please with him and with her. Leon tells them to leave her out of it because she's innocent. And they respond with that she carries the G anti-body, so she's being very well taken care of. And if Leon wanted this to "end peacefully" he had one choice: to work for them.

As for the Nosferatu fight, Spoiler:

show spoiler

It was a very welcome and enjoyed fight, despite it being totally different from the original. The hooks were a great addition, especially with how it ended, in regards to Chris seeing it later on just hanging in that room. XD

For the Steve stuff, Spoiler:

show spoiler

they handled the whole part with his transformation wonderfully, IMO. It was dramatic, the music was epic and everything. And when he died it was still as a heartbreaking as the original. Maybe even moreso, because when he mutters the last I love you, you see his lips form the words in this game, but he's already lost his last breath so it's like. ;_____;!!

As for Alfred and Alexia's relationship, Spoiler:

show spoiler

it was an odd twist for the game to give it. One that still makes a lot of sense. Alfred WAS still obsessed with Alexia, and Alexia's view was that everybody had to obey her, and since Alfred as she put it was late in waking her and stuff, she ... kills him. He never gets to see her awakened which is ironic for his character.

Finally, Wesker stuff. Which I think was the biggest disappointment, despite that I knew about it beforehand, Spoiler:

show spoiler

It really cuts out such an important part of it, so the whole ending to CV wasn't as epic or enjoyable as it could and I think should have been. One thing many people were praying for and hoping to see was the epic Wesker and Chris fight with DSC's graphics. So they really lamed up there. I mean, they kept the TENSION and RIVALRY between the two very present for that short moment. But bah. I wanted my epic battle.

No. There's no mention of her after the RE2 scenario. I haven't go through the files yet but I doubt they will explain about her either. The only thing we know is she is in the hand of the government, and they know of the G antibody in her.

Oh. Okay. Thank you guys!!

Though not what I thought it would be (well, I kind of saw that coming), DSC sounds, to me at least, still pretty cool. While damnable for the fact it answers almost NOTHING, practically shifts around CV/x, and is rather motion-sickness-inducing, it seems more... human, than most of the other REs. More character involvement, I like. I liek verrri muccchhhs.

It mainly explain how Krauser falls to the darkside though, after he heard Code: Veronica's story.

I will call it a 're-imagine' of Code: Veronica. The personality of the characters is indeed different. It enhanced Steve's personality but changed Alexia's. Wesker's role is kept to minimal but it seems Alfred have more screen time. The only problem I have is Chris. He doesn't seem shock nor angry when he learn that Wesker isn't dead from the mansion incident, almost as if he saw it coming.

[REmaster]

I'll played the whole RE2 scenario earlier, and I'm loving the dialogue lol.

Leon: What the hell is a G? Hey trenchy! lol

[Kaneco]

I've played this game for 6 hours straight on...my eyes are about to melt from staring at
my 32 inch LCD screen with the lights off for that much time. I just got to chapter 7
right after you defeat "Nosferatu", but I can't play anymore...I'll just continue on
tomorrow.

So far I'm extremely pleased with the game in comparison to UC (a game which I played
to death). It's really fun and I really liked the boss battles so far and the constant
dialogue between characters.

Can't wait to play more!
