You can actually get airsoft replicas of both the regular Samurai Edge and Barry's. Barry's gun is even a select fire machine pistol, just in case you really need that.

Unfortunately, the earlier WE models of Barry's gun suffered from a slight....problem.

It's a recoil compensator.

A little EQ, a touch of reverb, slap on some compression and there. That'll get your dickbutt jiggling.

Counterpoint: RE2 Sherry could only dodge and interact with objects, and could not fight back. Natalia can at least bludgeon enemies to death with bricks on top of her abilities.

even better is that it is a new compensator, Barry used a different one during the Mansion Incident.

I can't blame him, a gun nut like him would always be tinkering and changing stuff, hell I wouldn't be surprised if he made it himself

Well, she's got the non-blinking red "Subject Mutating Right Now, Shoot To Kill" bracelet thing so it's basically a given, yes.
Wow. I think it's cool that a Resident Evil game was actually subtle for once. The scene doesn't highlight Natalia's bracelet, and the document that tells you about the colors was an optional pickup from a ways back.

Claire and Moira's bracelets also change color sometimes. They're usually orange because who wouldn't be scared off their rear end in their shoes, but in times of calm they'll sometimes go back to green as you'll see in the next episode. Natalia's bracelet being the color that it is right off the bat is a pretty important detail but you're right, the game doesn't draw direct attention to it, which is cool.

You were actually closer when you called them Spiders rather than Crabs CJacobs :v:

They're Whip Scorpions, an Arachnid and a cousin of spiders, but not a spider and definitely not a crab.

The game calls them crab whip spiders and they are neither crabs, spiders, OR whips?! :negative:

Well I'll make note of that then I guess. Better to be right the third time than wrong all of the times.

IT'S ME, BURROWS!

IT WAS ME ALL ALONG, BURROWS!
They're tailless whip scorpions, or whip spiders, both are legit common names. Arachnids, but different order from regular whip scorpions / vinegaroons.

And in case you're wondering if whip scorpions are called whip scorpions because of the whip tail which tailless whip scorpions don't have, why even bother with a name as awkward as tailless whip scorpion, and why is the alternate name whip spiders...
They've got a pair of really long whip legs they use as feelers. Which regular whip scorpions have too, just in case you're not confused enough.

You can distinguish them by their claws too. On whip scorpions, their claws work like a regular scorpion's, whereas on whip spiders, their claws work like a... mantid's.

In conclusion: The next time they appear in the game and you have an opportunity to talk about the subject, just go ahead and magdump into the nearest one while screaming "gently caress you, and gently caress your Markerbiology."

I'm sure it was referring to African people- as in people from Africa, not black people -having bioterrorism done to them, since the events of RE5 are just ending around the time this game takes place (this game takes place in 2011 or so, RE5 took place in 09). But It does make a funny comparison to the last remnant of RE5's hilarious racism rearing its head as if to say "hey remember me??? haha yeah that was weird"

Part of the reason I love doing it is because people find it so funny! Spiders are the worst thing that exists on this planet besides I guess genocide, so you know right off the bat that if a game I'm LPing has spiders I will be shouting at them the whole time.

edit: Also, I just noticed that I have a weird habit of LPing games where the protagonist is in their late 40s. Max is in his late 40s in Max Payne 3. Isaac is in his late 40s in Dead Space 3. And now Barry is in his late 40s in this game! Weird!

Actually, Barry's an exception to that list. Barry was born in 1960, and this game takes place roughly in 2011. Barry's at the ripe old age of 51 in Revelations 2.

Today Barry and Natalia take the scenic route to the radio tower, accompanied by an army of yet-unseen bloodthirsty creatures. This episode's ending title music is 'Grace' by Jeff Buckley. I decided to add music to the end title slides of each episode to further conform and very very subtly (read: not subtly at all) hint at a game that I may or may not be (read: will be) let's playing after Dead Space 3 finishes. Also because it's incredibly easy to loop the 'next episode:' slide.



This is a montage of the things that change based on your playstyle choices in Episode 1 as well as in new game plus. I'll be making one for each episode as they finish because I really love the amount of effort that was put in.
