did you have pics of children zombies ?

There are no child zombies, and never have been. Ever. Nor has anyone ever mentioned them actually being in the game, just mentioned that Mikami was strongly against them.

It is possible for a character to be killed off screen, but I really doubt Sherry was ever in any danger of being killed off. Forgoten forever? Sure. Just not killed. I don't remember many instances before the PS2 of a kid (not a teen) being put in any kind of real danger. Even in the game it's damned difficult (impossible? Never bothered actually trying) to have Sherry killed by zombies.

I think if Sherry was to be killed, it would have been offscreen. There are plenty of ways of killing a character without showing them dying.

Mikami might have been against zombie children but I also consider there to be a big difference between a character dying and a player having to shoot something.

(as I doubt they would have allowed letting Sherry die, since she's a child).

but I guess that there could be things regarding Sherry that makes her vulnerable too... I mean, maybe she actually could die and that's one of the underlying and contributing factors to the redesign (since "kids + death = no" in many regions). Another possibility is that there's some sort of way to abandon/avoid her (If she gets "sick", not make her a cure - leading to a Dead Rising-ish ending twist? Or maybe some way to just avoid her completely?)

Maybe they actually did went with the idea of Sherry possibly dying, and that probably did contribute to having its script being marked down.

But then again, Mikami was already strongly against zombie-children in the games saying how unethical it would be for the player to shoot them down, so maybe they never approved that idea for BH1.5 in the first place. Maybe Sherry was destined to live all along.

Was it confirmed that Linda can snuff it then? I was thinking that maybe she always survived for Leon, so there was only a couple of endings for both characters. I felt it sorta made sense, since Capcom seemed already intent on heading for less mulitple endings by RE2.

I see the possibilities as Elza being the "easy mode" (like Jill's scenario in RE1), but I guess that there could be things regarding Sherry that makes her vulnerable too... I mean, maybe she actually could die and that's one of the underlying and contributing factors to the redesign (since "kids + death = no" in many regions). Another possibility is that there's some sort of way to abandon/avoid her (If she gets "sick", not make her a cure - leading to a Dead Rising-ish ending twist? Or maybe some way to just avoid her completely?)

I guess throwing Annette into the mix is a possibility too.


(Also, boy, did this topic go off topic or what? Fujin, you better get a grip and stop with the games 'n' stuff right away! No one likes a party pooper in threads like these!)

[Alzaire]

According to Inflames' old source, it was pretty similar to RE1. Choices you make while playing influence which ending you get and who survives. Although it seems a little imbalanced, as I doubt Sherry could be killed, so Elza only has 1 sub-character to kill off. But otherwise, it should be: Leon only, Leon/Linda, Leon/Marvin, Leon/Linda/Marvin; Elza/Sherry, Elza/John/Sherry. I wonder how they would have made up Elza's scenario shortage, considering Leon should apparently have 4 possible endings, while Elza can only have 2 providing Sherry can't die (as I doubt they would have allowed letting Sherry die, since she's a child).

Maybe in Leon's scenario, Annette will always die while in Elza's scenario, Annette can live and be with Sherry. Since Annette is apparently more of a good character (according to Inflames source info about the characters in general, and the fact Annette seems to be helping Leon in images, including being on the train with them in the final part of the game), perhaps she's a special case for Elza. That would allow for Elza/Sherry, Elza/Sherry/Annette, Elza/Sherry/Annette/John, and Elza/Sherry/John. Would give an equal 4 endings for both.

And just to be clear, I do not want any intelligence insulting lies. You tried that with the 'I'm playing 1.5 oh shit they're going to ban I really said RE3' issue we had a while back. It did not work then, and I've only gotten older and angrier since then, but not noticibily dumber.

So, on a 1.5 related question, do we know how many characters could get killed and therefore how many endings we might have had? I'm guessing Marvin and John could bite the dust, but wonder about Sherry and Lisa.

Stop, now. Youre using a French service provider, and all the evidence points to you being French, or at least located in France. Now back to 1.5 talk, or else.

[fujin78]

Wow did this get off topic or what?

ask this question to the people who think im french

[fujin78]

i understand what the people said me but im not french

[Hunk_4TH]

[Alexia_Ashford]

So.. You don't understand English, and you don't listen to people who talk English. So I talk French, your native language, saying that we do not understand your English, said the photos were taken with a camera phone, and said that saying you were French wasn't an insult and asked what nationality you were, if not French. You then came off with the arses about me using "Google translator" and ignored everything I said. I then say we're not victimizing you, but we don't understand you, and if you don't want help, then go away. You again ignore everything I said, proving you can't listen to anyone whether you understand what they say or not. Now you're behaving like a petulant child and going for the caps lock.

So basically, this is how it's going to be. Get back on topic, stop being childish and stop spamming with nonsense or I'll start to give warnings out.

(And when you ask questions, actually LISTEN to what people have to say and not ask the same questions over and over. People have been temp-banned for doing the same thing.)

alexia I TOLD YOU LEAVE ME ALONE !!

[Anders]

anders ¦ why did you say that ?

I said that because, as Alexia just said, you don't listen. You ask and ask and ask, more or less the same questions again and again. But you never listen to what people tell you. :/
