I like how you can just grab the character portraits off the site. Shame that it seems to just throw a random 8 on there. I don't even play as neill or Gina.

Question about the different endings and how to get them:
?
Anyways.
Story was awesome. I really liked it. Although Claire's last chapter... so damn short. I don't get it. What's the point really? Barry's part felt so long though and the first half was kinda boring, but OMG the second half. So much fun.
Overall Barry's campaign felt... I don't really know the word. Drawn out or a bit long, while I wanted to see more of Clarie's. Really liked all the references to other characters and previous games. Barry saying he has had enough of Mansions. I lol'd. Epic. And the mansion part was really good and eerie.
in Raid... omg. What to say? Capcom being Capcom, LAZY. No original melee moves. Shares the same as Claire, Moira and Gina. Cool new skills. Her commands are funny. Very Carla/Ada. Posted a video of her in raid mode: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T5bRDBwe8lY
About to finish The Struggle to unlock Rasputin in Raid. Doubt he'll have any originality at all though. ETA: But he has original melee moves in campaign but not Raid? I don't get it?
So I don't really know how this works but
In my playthrough I had Moira kill Neil so Moira "dies". I get the cutscene of Claire and Barry in the emergency room. The end. I play Barry's campaign. I get the good ending I guess? Moira saves Natalia. Claire shows up with chopper to save them. Claire mentions Piers in car (omg RIGHT IN THE FEELS), and scene of Natalia in her room at Barry's home I guess as Alex.
Ok, so to my question... does Moira/Claire killing Neil affect BOTH these endings? Is that the only thing that triggers what end you will get? Or do I have to do something in Barry's campaign in EP3 to see the other ending

Even with better translations, it doesn't fix the shitty plots and stories. It's all kinds of cheese.
All the bad localization has done is make the dialogue sound stupid at times, the general story telling though is the same convoluted plot hole filled b-movie level stuff

Yeah, dude is so angry about the game. I get different opinions but wow. I don't get it.
Nice work, that plat looks pretty challenging!
Pretty much. It would have been way more obvious what to do if that was an actual gameplay scenario, too.
I think it adds them as long as you've used them atleast once. I have more than 8 showing.

I assumed it was the same until I started teaching in Japan and found out it was perfectly acceptable for first grade children to say. Elementary school children may use those words in the US, but it's not considered acceptable for them to say.
I think we might have different views on what it means ... for a word to "mean" something, but regardless I don't think we really disagree much in terms of Revelations 2. Using expletives would have been the right choice for translating this game, despite the game taking things too far.
As for Bio 2, ...
"I almost got the story" is better than 「まだ死ぬわけには...」
The "co-conspirator" line is better than 「ここに署長の正体が書いてある」
"Good god, what was that?" is much better than 「今のは何？」
This scene stood out for me last time I played.
Of course there are things that were misunderstood and mistranslated, but at times the dialogue reads better. Particularly because the Japanese dialogue here is so poor.

That decision is the only thing that changes the ending.
It makes sense
if Moira isn't willing to use a gun at that moment she certainly isn't during her 6months stranded, and she wouldn't survive.
Thus not able to show up and stop the complete transfer.

I don't see how it doesn't make sense?
if Moira triumphs over her fears she's a survivor and lives.
I'm actually surprised people are getting the bad ending. The whole
Moira-getting-the-gun sequence
Just finished this with a playtime of little under 8 hours. This game gives a lot of bang for your buck. Story, raid and a shit ton of unlockables for 25$. Money well spent.
Episode 4 end:
How long are the extra episodes?
Episode 4 end:
When the helicopter came I was like "Ada Wong?! Omfgwtf!" But it was just Claire disguised as Ada. 
Still an awesome ending.

Glad to hear it. In general I feel like Barry's episodes have been really bland and weak, as much as I love Barry and Natalia. Claire's episodes have been much more fun imo.
Do you have any examples of plot holes? The stories are fine, at least for most of the games. The translations are what cause plot holes, retcons, contradictions and errors, very few exist otherwise and mostly just because no game includes the entire scenario (they solve this through supplemental material).
There's nothing inherently cheesy about the stories. Most of them, anyway.
I dunno, they're pretty acceptable here in Ireland. I can recall conversations with my teachers where I used them, or where the teacher used them in a lecture. They're fairly neutered words.
In regards to those BIO2 lines, they're fine in Japanese. There's not much to them. Ada's one in particular is much more true to her personality, she's not meant to be scared easily. She's meant to be extremely cold and is written the same way in her BIO2 drama album. Her coldness is meant to be what makes her penultimate scenes with Leon pay off.

Just played Claire Episode 1. I liked the intro but wasn't that impressed with the actual gameplay, but I'm sure it'll get much better from here on out. Framerate is inconsistent as anything, I died a few times from the game's huge stutterings. For the most part it's okay though.
Dangit Arklite,
Who? Dang it I've been spoiled haven't I. :/
Dangit Arklite,
Gina dies 2 seconds after she's introduced. And didn't come back like Rachael.

The Struggle is aptly named. What the hell.
Made it to the 4th, 5th, area and died with no herbs, 4 handgun rounds, and about 18 or so more tough dudes and 3 of those guys that throw shit at you.
I'm...gonna bump it down to casual for my next try (it erases your save if you don't have enough continues!).

Finished episode 4 and apparently I got the bad ending. Reading up on how to get the good one and...yeah, that's pretty easy to miss.

As someone who went with the bad ending and then watched the good ending.
Go for the good ending.

Struggle is indeed hard. I actually like it, but there's a sequence in the second level I just cannot get past on Survival so far, and that's not even the end.
I played and beat Little Miss though, it was actually better than I was expecting. Loved the character reaction, strange tones, bizarre scenes, and pinkish haze to everything. They did a few fun things with the stealth-only focus. Also gave some interesting clarification and viewpoint on the narrative. I think the second level was the hardest though, the third level was pretty easy for me.

IF YOU GOT THE BAD ENDING:
I actually think it's best to get this ending first. But go get the good ending, you only fight the second half of the final boss fight if you are going along the good ending path, and the ending is longer. Also, something after the credits.

I can confirm it as I did it earlier. Even switched difficulties (did Claire's episode 3 on Casual, then switched to Survival for Episode 4).
The game saves whatever you did for that choice last time for further playthroughs of episode 4 until you play the episode through again and overwrite it.
Also it shows your decision when you highlight Eps 3 at the episode select screen. I
n the bottom right corner youll see Moira and Claire's face, If Moira is in front then you got the good ending and can move on to barry's climax.

I decided to replay Chapter 3 Claire to get the good ending before even playing through the bad ending. Having seen both endings now, I'm glad I did, as the bad ending
Anyone complaining about the value of this package is INSANE. Sure, you could like or not like it, but the bang for the buck is astronomical. A nice long campaign plus a Raid mode that's a lot of fun, the entertainment value per dollar is up there even if you never touch the Raid mode.
And that good ending?
So good.
is really just a cutscene that is easily watchable on Youtube.

You havent been spoiled. Its an alt for Gina.
But to avoid future spoilers: AVOID this thread until you finish all 3 episodes.

The way they hide the true ending is rather cool to me, it means nearly everyone is going to see the bad ending first before the true ending though it could have been made a little clearer that you could do so.
I still need to buy the later episodes but from what I have seen I think rev 2 did a great job and for the asking price, really good.

Haven't picked up yet but plan on doing so soon. Can someone comment on the performance issues for both the pc and ps4? Are they minor or no?
I had no performance issues on PS4. I'm not very sensitive to that type of thing in that first place, however.

So all I got left for my platinum is beating Barry's episode 4 on invisible/countdown mode. Am I wrong in thinking it will be easier with the bad ending?
so I guess I should load up chapter 3 just to set up the bad ending....
the good ending you have to fight the boss twice...I can imagine since you can't spot, hitting the boss with the sniper will be tough when she is invisible and on countdown mode that is more time ticking away...the bad ending ends right at the boss while still under ground...
so I guess I should load up chapter 3 just to set up the bad ending....
It's definitely more on the horror side than 6. I thought 5 was a bit more 'scary' (underwater gator section) than 4 so you know, your mileage may vary.
This game does fall more into the earlier RE's horror category. Like, 1-CV or something like that, I suppose.

I had hoped to get that shotgun for Barry, but it is apparently 2 shotguns for Claire, 0 for Barry.
Oh, well. Barry kicks ass without it

You can go back and do it again if you want but it doesn't matter much you get another chance at getting the shotgun again for claire in episode 3.
I have a shotgun with Barry. I got it in chapter
