How Oswell Spencer Caused the Events in The Resident Evil Storyline | Explaining Evil (Ep.1)

[@HeYDeVuH]

What did you guys think of Oswell E. Spencer and where would you rank him compared to the other Evil Characters in the Survival Horror Genre, Please let me know your thoughts down below. Also Feel free to let me know on which Character I should Cover Next on Episode 2 of Explaining Evil. Thank You Everyone and see you again soon!!!!

Bro long time no see though how are you doing? as always awesome video cheers.

[@HeYDeVuH]

@@ramizshould Thank You and Yes, I had to take a break. Juggling between Working Full Time and Editing takes a long time. Anyway thank you for watching!!!

[@grandadmiralzaarin4962]

Spencer ranks at the very top of the characters since without him, none of the events take place. The man's twisted legacy of pain, suffering and death in the Resident Evil universe brought about by his psychopathic ambitions and delusions of godhood is on par with Palpatine's in the Star Wars universe. Hopefully you will cover Nicholai Ginovaef next, since he's still canonically alive and is the only antagonist in the history of RE to get away 100% scot free after outsmarting the heroes and villains both without even needing a mystery virus to use on himself to do it. We also know he was at least partly responsible for the proliferation of viral data in the Black Market during and after Umbrella's fall. He's a fascinating character who I always hoped there'd be more about, maybe with Carlos trying to track him down since Nicholai was effectively to Carlos what Wesker was to Chris.

[@sherif956]

@@grandadmiralzaarin4962 I agree with u,in my opinion spencer is the mvp villain yes even more than wesker I said it,cause without spencer wesker wouldn't exist along with REs massive story,he deserves sucha big spotlight,I mean ya sure mother miranda inspired him bla bla but he did all the heavy lifting,it's like how reg park inspired Arnold Schwarzenegger bk in the day,yet who's on top? My point exactly tho it's a shame,woulda loved to see spencer as an actual villain boss I could fight not killed in some flashback

[@grandadmiralzaarin4962]

@@sherif956 I definitely did want to have the option to kill Spencer myself in game after all the misery he caused, but on another level I think it is more true to his character that he never took a viral or parasitic dose himself. The reason for this is Spencer wanted to be absolutely in control, he didn't want to be subject to anything and he realized that each of the viruses had two effects- namely either a highly unstable and fatal reaction or it would effect the mind. Both of these would have been in direct opposition to his ultimate goal. We see the wisdom of this in how every single person who took or was given the various viruses had unwanted side effects or lost themselves eventually-yes even Wesker as we saw his mental state devolve from coldly calculating and pragmatic before his resurrection to deranged megalomaniac with obsessive tendencies after that eventually got him killed. Spencer was smart enough to realize the viruses weren't perfected yet and he'd only take one once it was perfect.

[@achaudhari101]

The only good thing he did for humanity was never revealing the Mold to Wesker.

[@HeYDeVuH]

That's true, Imagine a combination of the Progenitor and Mold

[@fearless3073]

I imagine if Wesker is alive he certainly knows now lmfao

[@kman9884]

Mold in Weker’s hands would be more preferable than Uroboros. At least with the mold, the Megamycete is still the core controlling everything and possessing the consciousness of its victims, so even death means your consciousness lives on with the others who have been infected. Uroboros would just be a series of hellish tentacle-laden biomasses absorbing anything and everything while a few people are able to essentially remain immortal through being infected.

[@ArsevensX]

[@huntercheadle2679]

@@HeYDeVuH ....fuck... wesker would have been unstoppable...

[@grandadmiralzaarin4962]

I think Spencer knew better than to stay in the village, since the Four Great Families make it clear that they are subordinate to Miranda, whether they like it or not. Had he stayed, he would have eventually been at odds with her. Two people can't wear the same crown and Spencer would never agree to serve another. He was far more successful than Miranda ever was anyway and his legacy is so much more omnipresent than Miranda's Mold with her legacy being restricted to one small village and the incident with the Baker family before being wiped off the earth. Spencer's legacy however erased five major cities across the globe, created a viral black market arms race and led to the deaths of over eight million people with no end in sight. Miranda was nothing next to him.

[@HeYDeVuH]

You made an Excellent point in regards to the two possibly not being able to co exist. Also yes you made a great point that Spencer in the end did have a much wider influence and results compared to mother miranda.

[@thunderstudent]

@@HeYDeVuH It should also be noted for that even if he had stayed, he would have likely pursued the progenitor virus because the mold and cadou weren’t efficient enough for his plans of forcing human evolution. If he had gone back to Miranda after the destruction of raccoon city he might have attempted to use the mold with the T-virus to negate the worst qualities of both and enhance their best ones. Eveline would have been yet another bow in the catalog of the umbrella corporation. It’s ironic that each one of them had what the other desired but they never reached out to each other. Miranda could have given Spenser the immortality he craved and in return he could have created the perfect vessel for Eva with his vast resources, using his eugenics program. God only knows what horrors would have been unleashed if they had formed an alliance with each other let alone with Osmond Saddler of the Los Illuminados. One that would no doubt end in treachery from at least one of them if not all of them.

[@windandcloudshadow158]

I think the whole connection between Spencer and Miranda was just stupid and came out of nowhere just to have resemblance with Resident evil which Village was definitely not.

[@grandadmiralzaarin4962]

[@nendymion]

The way I view it, He let Wesker know where he was because he either foolishly believed Wesker would help him, or more likely knowing his chance for immortality now gone, wanted to die at the hands of his own creation in a death that he had control over. As for the Mother Miranda stuff. Bear in mind that the the mold virus didn't always bear fruit. The four lords were the most successful of the experiments. Perhaps in his short time with her he saw what happens to those who aren't compatible with the codau and feared that he would become a shambling monster such as the lycans. It's probably the same reason why in his own desperation he didn't even consider prolonging his own life with the viruses he himself had access to, they would destroy his mind.

[@TheRealSephiroth]

I know im over a year late but youre exactly right!

[@VersatyleTV1]

Makes great sense

[@DragonmanX90]

As much as I like the callback to Ozzy being a former student of Miranda, it does bring several issues about. One of which is: If Ozwell wanted to be immortal; studying that aspect of the Megamycete probably would've kept him hearty and hale for a long time. Look at Lady D and Miranda, I'm pretty sure The Duke owes some of his longevity to that as well. The only reasons I can think of for Spencer not capitalizing on it are: 1) Even getting a sample of the Mold would make Spencer beholden to Miranda, something someone with his ego and God complex could never tolerate for long. 2) He was dead set on Virology and Eugenics being the route to humanity's evolution; allowing himself to be dependent on a fungus based solution to aging was repugnant to him. 3) The mutations the Mold induces was too unpredictable; look at the 4 lords for an example of that, or the Baker family. Jack and Lucas probably got the best deal out of their infection, but look what happened to Marguerite. Look what happened to Moreau! 4) the obvious answer: whoever wrote that into the story didn't remember Spencer's words to Wesker before he was murdered; but that's an unsatisfying answer.

[@RawPower867]

Heisenberg got the best deal out of the mold. Awesome destructive powers with no loss of cognitive ability nor any changes to his appearance.

[@DragonmanX90]

@@RawPower867 Aye; the only downside he really suffers from is him being beholden to Miranda. Though given how much Heisenberg hates her, that's probably the worst possible outcome for him.

[@ShadowMaster1171]

I do find it interesting how much loyalty this buttler had for Spencer. Makes me wonder if with all the twisted evil Spencer had, the one compassion he had was to make sure his butler was safe by firing him.

[@dr.strangelove9815]

I think so.

[@FishingwithAdam]

I'm surprised Spencer didn't revisit the Mother Miranda and the megamyste, in the end. He knew the mold could retain the consciousness of people and be potentially brought back. Nearing death's door, she could become part of the mold and make a plan for umbrella to bring him later or create a new vessel for his consciousness.

[@murilopenagoncalves3831]

Well, he was a prideful guy. And I'm sure he knew Miranda was insane and cared only for bringing her daughter back. He was a eugenist who wished to evolve the human race.

[@danawright777]

Wesker impaled Spencer in a similar fashion to how the Tyrant impaled him in RE1 - the creation killing its creator. Imagine if Spencer came back the same way Wesker came back as a superhuman.

[@breezyphontain9686]

Who you think is more successful depends on your point of view. To the people saying we didn't need the retcon, I say why not? Without Miranda, Spencer never even believes one could gain immortality or change humans with an organism. He had to see it to believe it was possible. He wanted to change the world and in a way he did. While Miranda influence was on a much smaller scale. On the other hand, Miranda obtained what he never did: immortality. And she got her daughter back if only for a moment. Spencer died a feeble old man.

[@gghs9162]

Exactly! I don't think it undermined his character at all! He had different/WAY more ambitious goals and he went about to accomplish them with a different pathogen. Like Miranda was his inspiration and it serves as a good explanation as to where all his mentality came from.

​@@HeYDeVuHu know theoritcally : it could work,since the mold apparently favored the genetics of european royalty,like the 4 lords and miranda possibly is a descendant of one of the ancient kings of the region hence why she reacted so favorably to the mold,i think its cause bk in the day,certain royal families adapted to the mold overtime they became super,and spencer IS european royalty,so he fits the bill,tho in this case if hes infected with the mold,he could become somethin like miranda,and b able to survive the deadly effects of progenitor post injection that hed evolve and even b able to create new life,given thts progenitors true power,honestly i wanna see tht happen,itd b a perfect ending to the main story if rumors are true tht 9 is the last main numbered entry

I always figured Spence predicted that Wesker was gonna kill him when they met again, I mean he pretty much knew every moment everyone took. Which it was the butler's letter that put me on that Idea. (Funny enough the only person Spencer had and liked was the Buttler) Which is why I think he knew there was A possibility that he was gonna die when he met with Wesker again, such A possibility that he fired his lifelong and trusted butler to make sure he wasn't there when everyone was massacred. In his case with getting older, I wonder why he never tried to take on Mirandas immortality, and then perfect his virus. (Which I know it was because they hadn't even come up with Village during RE5 lol)

If the fungus can created a body from nothing, isn't this a hint that Mister Burns is alive?, and he is indeed the final boss of the whole saga.

[@Unlikekillakay]

That man was demented for sure lol

[@HeYDeVuH]

Yes for sure, he was truly evil, turned against the people close to him as long as it fits his goals

[@prometheuscastles]

Obviously The Spencer note to Miranda is a new addition to RE and connects dots. And many keep saying "well if he knew he was dying why wouldn't he reach out to Miranda?" Fair.....but who's to say he hasn't or didn't and we get that in a future game.

[@madhattermaker622]

I won't lie, I kind of miss the old Resident evil zombies. I get that we do get enemies that are basically zombies but I kind of miss the ol T-virus outbreak in a large city with zombies eating human flesh etc. And I guess we did get a return to that in Resident Evil 6 with the whole zombies in a city but I kind of want to see what would happen if the T-virus made a return and was combined with the new virus's we got to make a whole new batch of zombies in a giant city much like Racoon city of though I would still like to see the zombies doing things like eating human flesh and the stuff we saw them do in Resident Evil 3 Remake because I just love when zombies are legit scary. Also as a side note, if I was Spencer I would probably freeze myself in a secure facility because yes, when you freeze your cells explode etc but like, in the RE universe where we have virus that can literally do anything, I wouldn't be surprised if there was a virus that can bring back corpses after being taken out of ice.

[@HeYDeVuH]

Yeah it's very nice to think about the old RE games and the slower pace zombie puzzle gameplays. You're right that they had a portion similar in RE6. I think Spencer could've benefitted from the Mold like Mother Miranda did because in the end he wanted immortality and Mother Miranda sis achieve that due to the Megamycete

Come to think about it : the only virus tht coulda saved spencer was T phobos;it requires a strong mentality not genetics,and I doubt a guy like spencer scares easy,all he'd need post injection is to feel just nuff fear that the virus spreads thru his whole body but nt so much he ODs and same time allow the V act process to revive him since phobos requires u to di3 1st before it activates ur superhuman powers (assuming ofc u got a hold of ur neoepenphrine by nt gettin too scared)

I actually have something cooking up for his character. TBH though I wish we knew more about his background but I'll do my best to cover as much as I can

[@damienkrawczuk1435]

@@HeYDeVuH yeah I got a theory of my own with that, seeing as he was responsible for 'sanitising' Raccoon City, he no doubt was covering himself when he killed the president when he wanted to go public, and that whole neo umbrella deal Simmons probably made that all up under orders from 'The Family' but there just theory's going from the Intel on Resident Giraffe..

[@_NguyenManhDung-vb8ep]

You miss some information from the manga Resident evil Heavenly Island which had some lore to Spencer and Alex Wesker. Back when Spencer sent his support on research for Alex, he mentioned the research base of Alex is in an old military base in a South seas island. The island named is Sonido de Tortuga, in somewhere of Caribbean sea. Alex conducted her first experiment in there before betrayed Spencer and moved to Shein island of Baltic sea. This was before Resident evil 5 and Revelations 2.

[@BeeBumper]

They should go back to the earliest days of research in the story. The Trevor's etc....

[@reminon]

He could've used the mold to further his eugenics.

[@HeYDeVuH]

Yes he could have and just imagine what kind of craziness the world in RE would have been if he did.

[@reminon]

@HeY DeVuH pretty insane! It just seems like a terrible lapse of judgment. He knew Miranda was immortal, and could've used that for himself, even if his goal was to work with viruses.

[@Simone.Pietroforte]

Am I the only one thinking the whole "mold story" added to the lore as a sort of prequel feels kinda forced?

[@HeYDeVuH]

You're not the first to mention that, a lot of other RE fans felt it was forced as well

It's ironic that he may not achieve immortality, but he'll be remembered in history as he and the others created a corrupted company that created B.O.W.s and caused the deaths of over 8 million people and despite their deaths, people carried on their work. Spencer and Miranda created a legacy that will continue for generations to come.

Very well said. Spencer did cause so much havoc just to achieve his dreams of immortality, a true madman

So if Spencer wanted to achieve immortality why didn't he contact Miranda to see if she can give him the Cadou or infect himself with a modified sample of the T virus? I know the series wasn't thinking that far ahead but still.

Because their conection was shoehorned in.
