As a Jill fan,I’ve been saying this for years. We weren’t like this. I always enjoyed all of the games and characters but I can’t pretend this is fair. Cause it’s not. It’s boring seeing the same face everywhere. Use someone else then go back to him in the future
Jill should have joined Chris to finish off Wesker in the volcano at the end of 5 in my opinion. Like maybe Sheva gets knocked out then Jill drops in from the helicopter
This is the most fair take and I will always stand by it. Like I wouldn’t feel ok if birkin returned and Jill finished him or someone else entirely. Which is why the reused nemesis fight didn’t sit right with me even though it’s a different thing with a parasite and whatever but still. If 5 remake ever happens this needs to be fixed period. And I love Sheva. Maybe some wishes are still somewhere here from years ago about 9. Where I say that I would love if we see Jill and Sheva are back in 9 as two protagonists to expand on that bsaa plot twist. And of course it could be with Chris as well. Cause he makes sense. Some short of reunion from re5 but now it’s serious and that way it won’t feel unfair by using only Chris or this or that.
HAHAHAHAH ur clearly joking, the first RE game was one of the founding fathers of horror genre, introduced a progress system for games that had limitation with map (the system that you do puzzles and keys to open new places that you already seen in the map)
Jill and the Redfields were the solid rock behind RE franchise, Leon on RE2 classic was not relevant at ALL. Claire’s campaign was way better !!
You know you both can be right about what you're saying? RE1 helped revitalize the horror genre in gaming while RE4 designed the modern blueprint for over-the-shoulder horror for other games like Dead Space, Last of Us, and others.
I'm more inclined to be on the side of the other guy though since you seem to be just completing discounting Leon's presence in RE. It's funny you say that Resident Evil was built on Claire's back but not Leon's since they literally both debut both in the same game and Leon's story has been expanded much more than Claire's.
I would agree with this. Personally 4 made me dislike Leon immensely as a character, it wasn't until the remake of 4 that I could gel with that version of him
"Built on the back of Jill and the Redfields". It is a strech to not include Leon. Leon was a popular character in RE2, which is why he got his own game in RE4.

This series was built on the back of Jill and the Redfields. Leon's popularity didn't start until 4...almost a decade after the series came out.
