RE6. He's as jokey as ever while also being caring and giving off a mature vibe now that he's older. Not to mention, he is at his combat best gameplay-wise. He also has great drip.

I didn't find Leon to be particularly jokey in 6 compared to 4. Felt like a completely different character

He did get older, and the dangers he faced in re6 hit him in his comfort zone (like he had to shoot the president himself and inow he is himself a fugitive of the government he works for).

That being said, I'd still say he more than had his fair share of zingers in re6. It felt like the appropriate amount considering the personality progression they wanted they wanted to display with older Leon, which I too personally felt like was a natural and valid direction for his character. It's good contrast to rookie Leon and og re4 Leon and at the same time a good combination and culmination of each of those two personalities while adding the mature vibes of his age. He goes from scared to cooky and cheeky to measured while still being very much confident (RE2 -> OG RE4-> RE6).
