[@littlebadassgaming]

I know it's probably not the best series to look at.. But. Do you think you could a look at.. Lost Planet? Dead Rising? Or even Silent Hill? Even Metal Gear Solid?

[@GamerThumbTV]

@@littlebadassgaming All great suggestions

[@littlebadassgaming]

@@GamerThumbTV OMG! Im so happy you think so!! I love your timelines and can't wait to hear more of your interpretations of other games and stories!!

[@theenderkirby]

I think is a pretty solid project not my cup of tea but is mostly due to I care more on castlevania or metroid than resident evil is just my personal preference but that doesn't judge the great amount of quality and care you put here

[@TheCanineContrarian]

Lost planet would be so badass!!! While I would love it I feel he should focus on the big hitters/in popular demand series to get his views & popularity back to where it once was

[@TheCanineContrarian]

Bro I don't care if you recap all of your videos, I like your voice, manner of speaking and the handwork put into telling these vast stories and I'm sure the majority of your viewers agree even without saying anything.

[@kingdarkking]

Well said

For real I come back to this channel whenever there's something new in the franchise because it's so informative and the delivery when he talks is very entertaining. Love you man!!

[@9onny]

Yes!

You don’t understand how happy I am about this. I must have rewatched your old RE series a dozen times.

Enjoy!

[@maxentirunos]

@@wednesdaygeckok.7899 And it's the best version of the timeline. Most of the others are staying to such a massive surface level, full of misconceptions and missing what make the lore of the franchise so interesting

[@FlatterNewt1036]

While I’m very excited to see the rest of this series, I think the original timeline will still be my favorite.

[@robcotto7081]

I don’t care if some events from the spinoffs are non-canon, you made them fit so well, they might as well be in my book

[@riceman5641]

I can’t unhear that the sound for the leeches came from Burgers cooking. What kind of burger they making that sounds THAT moist 💀💀

[@GamerThumbTV]

Leech burgers? Delicious!

[@671Battlemage]

I treat this series like how others do with audiobooks. it makes my work shifts smooth while listening to video game lore. The organization and effort put into the games history is something I support and hope to see more of. the Resident Evil and Castlevania series are my fav on this channel currently

[@Chef-Briii]

Billy Coen need to make a come back

[@GamerThumbTV]

Capcom actually played with the idea of bringing him to Infinite Darkness but couldn't work him into the story.

[@Demondayo]

With the new games giving us more history to the game, it's nice to see you're updating this again! Cheers!

[@GamerThumbTV]

We have lots of new lore to cover!

[@Demondayo]

@@GamerThumbTV Heck yeah, I bet! Looking forward to it!

[@Tencelas]

Amazing work. I always loved watching the old timeline series because it was cool to see how you weaved all the stories together to create a more coherent narrative. I'm excited to see this new series now that there are remakes and other stuff in the mix.

[@GamerThumbTV]

This will have much more detail!

[@animeisthebest900]

My god I’m so excited to see this back can’t wait for more

[@BenjaminV1986]

OH HELL YEAH, I loved your original series on RE and I’m so glad your doing another one

[@The412Lol]

Funny thing is. I saw your short first and was like...wait. Then came to check my notifications and boom. New vid lol

[@GamerThumbTV]

Yea I posted the Short real quick at first thinking nobody would be up to see it yet while the video was still processing, then it started getting a bunch of views suddenly 😂

[@BeetleSkyGames]

I’m so happy you’re doing this updated series. I’ve watched the original series hundreds of times (not an exaggeration) almost everyday I put it on while I’m doing things around the house. It’s my go to series when I wanna just relax.

[@MrNetWraith]

Fun fact; in Resident Evil 0, there's actually a special mini-cutscene that plays if you send Rebecca to handle the rear brake and she encounters her former teammate turned zombie.

[@GamerThumbTV]

Very true, but I hate playing as Rebecca. She takes an insane amount of damage compared to Billy.

[@idiotlyuseful]

Ah the man who got me into the series back at it again!

[@shadowmasteer]

I am so excited for this. I go back and watch the RE timeline videos every once in awhile. so good

[@GamerThumbTV]

Well hopefully this one serves as a fun rewatch for you also!

[@rocknrollson9440]

Absolutely love the additional personal sprinkles you add to a story recap. Can’t wait for chapter 2!

[@GamerThumbTV]

Thank you for checking it out

[@trevorghelfi9410]

Seeing the Resident Evil timeline being remake is the best idea ever!! Especially since Resident Evil 4 remake is also coming out (which I hope it'll be out around the best time for you to tackle that game in the timeline) Still I wonder how you're going to handle the "City of the Dead" event of Raccoon City,we've seen two possible timelines from both original and remakes of RE 2 & 3,I wonder if there's a chance to combine them both along with the stories within Raccoon City around that time. (It definitely makes sense as to why Capcom always focus on that outbreak) Anyway this is the best way to come back to this series,especially with RE4 Remake that's coming soon,can't wait to see Chapter 2 and the rest of the this new series within the timeline!! Can't wait!! ^_^

[@GamerThumbTV]

With these series it'll be much more focused on individual games so the Raccoon City portions will be broken up per game. That way I can go as detailed as possible, and this project will be as different as possible from the original timeline series.

[@bakaultima]

I'm waiting for a remaster of outbreak that game would be so good with today's online

[@GamerThumbTV]

Outbreak 1 and 2 definitely could use from the ground up remakes. In my opinion they've aged poorly

[@livingcorpse5664]

I'm always amazed that they actually made Wesker go into the Army instead of training him like their paramilitary force and later faking his service in the Army. Like does it matter? As long as he's trained in combat the only thing you need is to convince the RPD and STARS he was an army vet. Kind of strange this is one of the things Umbrella was honest in.

[@GamerThumbTV]

Well since Wesker was part of Project W, like the other children, he was encouraged to go out into the world and make his own choices. They were supposed to be much more independent, which eventually shot them in the foot with Albert Wesker.

[@saschaberger3212]

Thank you for this. I really enjoyed this video, well done

[@RogueDragon05]

Seriously though I'd love to see a cg movie that showed the founding and recruitment of STARS maybe even focus on Bravo team and show them actually kicking ass in a couple missions before they were wiped out. It could also go into Wesker's plans leading up too RE0/1.

[@GamerThumbTV]

You mean what Welcome to Raccoon City should've done at the beginning, before the mansion incident. But instead they chose to fast forward everything to blow through RE1 and get to RE2 as fast as possible.

[@RogueDragon05]

@@GamerThumbTV Yea and ya know keep Wesker a bad guy!

Makes sense to offer a recap. Reimaginings and retelling are common in such a story, and sometimes there’s info you missed in the original

Thanks for the content. This is my favorite game franchise and you cover it in an amazing and entertaining way bro. I appreciate that fully.

[@Iceaiden]

if it is resident evil i will always since it is one of my favorite series. so a remake of your old one is never a bad thing for me. like i said many years ago, let me get some popcorn

[@CyanLater]

8:01 just sounds so insulting in a funny way that was that really how they used the sounds of the leeches for the game? Also really liking the retelling of the origins beginning first with 8's motion being played out first and foremost with even a nice telling over strange powers predating much history including even a sketch of Las Plagas.

[@GamerThumbTV]

Once you realize it's hamburgers cooking and you play the game, you can't unhear it lol. And the story bits in Village really filled in much of what we didn't know about the very beginnings of Umbrella. That and RE5.

[@rickysmith4199]

So glad ur making this again I loved the last one!

[@SamsarasArt]

What's weird is I was just thinking about this series just a few minutes before you uploaded this

What made absolutely NO sense was that Oswald Spencer wanted immortality along with godhood.....why didn't he get Maranda to make him exactly like her so that he could accomplish his future goals without worrying about aging??? CAPCOM shouldn't had Spencer ever meet Maranda at all.....they just wanted to force the small Umbrella connection.......

[@GamerThumbTV]

Real answer: you're right, Capcom just didn't invent the Mold until RE7 and didn't connect it to Spencer til RE8. In game answer: whatever Spencer witnessed in the village convinced him a virus would be a better method than Mold infection.

[@OHG_Fawx]

I caught that too. Probably no guarantee that him coming in contact with the megamycete would have the same effect though. Spencer would've been right not to risk it
