I’ve recently played Resident Evil 6 for the 1st time after playing Resident Evil 4 (an absolute masterpiece) & Resident 5 (a pretty good game). I was already aware of the hate this game got over the years. But after experiencing it, it’s only bad in an artificial way. Like yeah, it’s nothing like the classic games and it’s too much in the action category.

Otherwise, as someone who loves action games, it’s a pretty fun game. Especially in Mercenaries Mode, where it’s fun to mow down body-horror themed enemies. As a Resident Evil game, it’s pretty bad. But…as an action third person shooter with splatter punks, it’s quite well executed

    I enjoy Gods of Egypt, even have the Bluray. It’s a dogshit movie but good junk food entertainment. Kinda gives me The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen vibes which is another crap movie I like.

    Not sure why, I think I’m just a sucker for ancient Egyptian themes even when they’re butchered to the point of being insulting.

      I love those pulpy swing-for-the-fences ideas too. Sometimes people forget not everything has to be high cinema or literature.

      Sometimes we just want some imaginative adventure that takes us away from the mundane drudgery.
