The viii ending cutscene made it seem like she was a gonna be a superhero member of a S.H.I.E.L.D., is this the line they took?

The DLC takes place before the final cutscene of 8 so it sorta explain what Rose's deal is and provides pretty nice closure for 8 in general.

how's the third person camera in the base game?

it's pretty good imo - on m/kb the default turn speed is a little slower but otherwise it just makes it play similarly to the 2/3 remakes.

ethan is, by necessity, a kinda bland everyman, because he has to slot into the looney tunes world of RE7/8 relatively seamlessly and not have the kind of deep characterization that would make someone react realistically to their girlfriend trying to kill them or them having to fight an army of moldmen and werewolves

he needs just enough resonance to read as human and no more than that, and i think they do a masterful job of creating the kind of single-minded quipping machine an RE game needs

that's the kind of upselling you do when you realize that you're trying to make people feel sad about your dorky hand model main character passing away and it ain't working

I appreciate that the English version of RE8 calls Chris a boulder punching rear end in a top hat but the Japanese version calls him a Gorilla since each language has their own jokes about that dumb boy.

i think ethan works as the straight man(relatively speaking,) it's fun in its own way. i don't think of him as bland in the same was as i do, say, kratos or any given modmil protagonist

Ethan has a magical coat and I think not enough gets spoken about it. When he has his hand cut off part of the coat is cut off too and he just uses the magic ointment to surgically reattach his hand and somehow that chunk of cut coat is also reattached???
