[Leon S. Kennedy from Resident Evil games]

(Anonymous) 2019-03-09 09:48 pm (UTC)(link)
Aw, I love Leon in the animated movies. CG movies? Whatever.

To be fair though, I have never played any of the games because I am sissy as shit. Like, playing Clocktower ONCE gave me heart palpitations.

U wot m8

Show me the neckbeard. Show it to me. I'm not seeing it.

Anon above, but I agree. Like I said, I haven't played the games so I don't know what his original personality was like, but Leon in the movies is (to me) a slightly overworked, PTSD'd soldier with an authority probably who has a great ass.

(And should be banging Chris Redfield on the regular.)

It literally does not matter one single fucking bit what Leon is like in the games.

Resident Evil/Biohazard has the most extensive list of retcons in the history of gaming. Everything from characterization to backstory to timeline to ...everything.

In the original version of Resident Evil 2, Leon was a rookie cop with no previous experience who was late to his first day on the force because he stayed out late partying the night before.

Fast forward twenty years later, he has had various types of military service prior to becoming an officer, his hair is no longer red, he may or may not have been close friends with the PoTUS...

Like, fuck it. I'll ship him with DMC 3 Dante if I want. No fucks given. There's no sacred canon to destroy here, folks.

... I would support that ship. >_>

Considering DMC 1 was supposed to be a Resident Evil title which then got completely revamped... Dante is basically AU Leon with white hair.

In one of the secret unlock scenes of the original 1998 RE2 it reveals that Leon was working for the FBI or something the whole time, or at least some organization, it's been awhile.

Source? I beat that game about 10 times back in the day and unlocked absolutely everything and I do not remember this.

Pretty sure you're talking about one of the later retcons.

(Anonymous) 2019-03-10 12:04 am (UTC)(link)
I... agree? Sort of. Not really seeing neckbeard, but was sad at how he wasn't as pretty after RE4. Shallow? Sure. But I want what I want!

(Anonymous) 2019-03-10 01:39 am (UTC)(link)
Hard disagree, RE6 Leon was fucking hot. Slightly scruffy but still a pretty boy? FUCK YES sign me up for this.

I'm so tired of gritty dirty dudes in video games. Stuff happened and now you're too edgey to shave I GET IT OKAY THIS IS THE ONLY APPROPRIATE WAY FOR YOU TO SHOWCASE EMOTIONAL CONFLICT now go take a shower (tbf I'm still salty about the way they changed the Prince's design between Sands of Time and Warrior Within, sooo...)

(Anonymous) 2019-03-10 05:51 am (UTC)(link)
I don't really pay much attention to the series so I have no idea what the timeline is, but isn't RE2 considered earlier in the timeline? It makes sense he's not scruffy or tired yet.

That said, I do find it hilarious that the forums I visit keep linking people playing with naked Leon mods. Keep in mind these are mostly gross dudes that make me pop a braincell for misogny every day (but they're good for keeping with ACG news, urgh).

Yes! I haven't watched them for the same reason.

(Anonymous) 2019-03-10 07:36 am (UTC)(link)
bless u anon, i thought i was alone in this.

(Anonymous) 2019-03-10 05:16 pm (UTC)(link)
I don't like Leon in the remake only because they gave him a cleft chin, even though in the other games he doesn't have one.
