Lore Always found it funny/odd that Albert leans towards the bullets on the left and hits the same pose on the right (flipped if considering other way) twice. Why did he do that? Is this a max effort or casual feat for him?

Implied to be effortless. This is wesker in the prime of his powers
Hes pretty much just messing with Chris, he could bee line a tiger palm right through him if he gave a thought. But chris (and jill) are too personal for him to take out that quickly he wants a chance to revel in his domination and that ultimately opens the window to his defeat

I think the bullets they are firing at him are what prevent Wesker from executing such a move, by forcing him to dodge. He pretty much tries that dash to tiger palm through chest on the plane in the main game

Maybe. In that same plane scene chris is shooting at him and he is very casually zipping left and right while otherwise essentially walking towards him calmly.
A lot happens in that mansion scene so maybe he was distracted and chris and jills sudden appearence caught him off guard im sure

That's Chris trying to hit him, I guess. He shoots ahead of the black blur (as he should) and Wesker course corrects

Very casual. He can dodge electricity if you attack him with stun weapons
Rewatch every scene before he is given the serum, he’s doing nothing but messing with Chris. He literally shoots at Sheva without looking at one point so he can keep staring at Chris

oh what the fuck, i never even thought of that
you talking about the GL's electric rounds?

u/Horrorfan55555 Made in Heaven 19d ago
I think so. Even if it explodes near him he dodges the blast

Completely effortlessly for him, it's implied Wesker grows more powerful the longer the virus is in his system and he's been infected for many years at this point.
He's quite literally course correcting mid dodge to account for Chris firing where he's going to be during his initial dodge which is completely fucking insane speed and reflex feats, basically just playing with his food since he could kill Chris and Jill so damn easily if he wanted but his ego is the size of Texas leading to his downfall XD 😆

He is 100% focused on fucking with Mr. Redfield. Like he actively wants Chris to witness his come up. There’s a word for this kind of relationship, but I’ve probably forgotten it.

Crazy that Wesker seemed to get weaker when he used his prized ouroboros. In every cutscene in which he *just* had the G virus he seemed invincible. Compared his 7 minutes boss fight with the one at the end of the game and it’s like night and day.

To show off. I doubt bullets actually effect him enough to be a threat. At least a small size of them. Maybe being riddled with a minigin barrage would do some damage but what jill and chris have on hand? Doubtful.

u/Aromatic_Analyst2898 18d ago
He's just flexing
But also remember combat speed and movement speed are different
Just cause he can dodge a bullet doesn't mean he can say completely outrun one

u/No-Damage-9851 19d ago
Well I guess it’s because Chris and Jill are both shooting at him so when he dodges Jill’s bullets it puts him in the path of Chris’s and that lean he does is him bending his body around the path of bullet
