Resident Evil 2 (1998) Retrospective - Part 2 - WitchTaunter

[@callamastia]

shout out to that veteran cop getting taken out by 2 zombies while having a machine gun and only being able to hit the pilot.

[@KBXband]

I love how naive Leon is. He literally met Ada an hour ago and when Anette informs him she is a spy is all like "You dont know her like I do!"

[@gabrieldevoogel6225]

Best part: she is a spy but Annette really didn’t know Ada like Leon did, she couldn’t kill him even in remake when it was probably best for her

[@maxmuller6730]

Leon is a simp, but I get it just look at her tight dress 😅

[@MasterP86]

​@@maxmuller6730to be fair, considering her actions in the franchise, Ada is also a simp for Leon, she just doesnt shows it in front of him 😂

[@GabrielGamingAtYt]

I think I just stumbled upon a very underrated channel. The videos are well-edited, its got humor and charm, and offers very detailed information for itsviewers. MORE PEOPLE HAS TO SEE THIS CONTENT!!!!!

[@Tsaier]

When Tyrant breaks through the wall during the candle puzzle, that was for sure a terrifying moment in my childhood. I still remember that. Good lord lol

[@cliffordfernandez3524]

He did it two times The first was surprising The second in the hallway I had feeling he would

[@homerp.hendelbergenheinzel6649]

In Germany this game was over months in the top lists of the PlayStation magazine under the alias "Indiziertes Spiel 2" ( it translates to something along the lines of "forbidden game 2"), because it was too brutal and on an index list of illegal games. I remember buying it "under the table" in a dedicated games shop back in the days, despite not even being 18 years old.

[@Bzduras]

21:02 is pure comedic gold that I didin't expect.

[@ddallankilla]

really love how your passion for the games shows through in these, keep em coming!

[@Kinsect101]

Also 2:17 this is where the RE trend of Helicopters and there pilots getting shot down started XD

[@chafrey8532]

I was like 13 years old or so playing this when it came out but I absolutely remember thinking the Leon Ada story was mind blowing. That final scene between them in Leon a was epic.

[@FeedbackKing]

Loved watching this video. Your drawings are great 👍🙂

[@ChaosN0110]

I'll binge all your REviews!!!

[@EpicLPer]

oh god the humAN HORSE CAN SPEAK

[@WitchTaunter]

-He finally realizes on my 4th long-form video essay.

[@LilHaze117]

I know this is crazy but when talking about Ada in Re1 you show a message from John with a password for her and the password is written in norse runes. So I translated. It says "mole". But, this is Re1. How long did they have the idea of Ada for???

[@juniperburton7693]

Since then, apparently.

[@Resimaster]

Another great video 😁 Leon's fight against the super Tyrant was hindered by that crazy magnum recoil, which is why I never upgrade it. Also, it wasn't a lava pit he fell in - it's a smelting pool where the engineers can make their own bespoke structures for the lab.

[@felman87]

2:00 That helicopter crash is just insane. Dude has an automatic, is firing at zombies right in front of him and doesn't hit a thing. Actually, that's not true, he hits the copter pilot even further away in the sky. How? How do you miss the zombies on top of you but manage to hit the thing further away in the sky? Like, there's rolling a 1 in DnD but something like this just doesn't seem physically possible. I want to see that cutscene from a different angle because I'm calling BS on it. Yeah, in a game about zombies and creatures with their brains exposed, the most unbelievable thing is that shot.

[@smugmcgbug]

This video is a perfect sequel

[@artcrime2999]

the gas you could use was part of the zapping system B.O.W gas in the Laboratory - If the gas was turned on in "A", enemies will become weaker in "A" only. In "B", the Plant 43 will become poisonous due to the prolonged exposure to the gas. If the gas was not turned on in "A", Plant 43 will not become poisonous in "B".

[@zoidster2099]

Lickers will also get more health and do more damage in scenario B.

[@WolfHreda]

24:46 "I should've been the one to fill your dark soul with *LI-IGHT!!!"*

[@thdfgdfb7024]

Dmc😂😂😂😂

[@shamusmcreary9748]

So the tyrant can't open doors but somehow knows what a surveillance camera is and that he's being watched 🤦

[@bobbleheadeater3209]

Nice work!

[@zibby8912]

Just what i say before... I really like your RESI videos. Everytime i watch it I wanna play it again. Good videos before watching. Thanks, Keep it comin´.

[@Conker139142]

Awesome video i love your drawings of characters

[@Geneo12345]

Whoa whoa whoa! You didn't warn us with a *spoiler alert* on Ada! (Kidding.) Great video!

[@amineelouati6496]

I do remember an April's fool when the game was released on the psOne when you had to meet some crazy requirements on the survivor mode to unlock Akuma.

[@gabrieldevoogel6225]

Edit: first aid sprays beyond one will automatically lower your rank until you permanently bottom out on rankings I had a friend with me for my Leon A and he was the best for this classic game, his guidance was only specific in few places, grab kendo’s shotgun, avoid zombies to conserve ammo, basic tenets of survival horror (re2 classic was my third survival horror behind Biohazard 7 and re2make), from there I had to take tips on how to observe a room, to try and interact with anything I think I can, to play the game like somebody thrust into this location looking for something that you don’t know how to find, it was a truly awesome experience

[@ColorfulHelices]

Great work again! Love your coverage of the full game, so few people mention the other mides or Story changes. Bless.

[@Nanoaiello]

loved the retrospective, specially the RLM cameo lol

[@michaelallain7706]

An aunt gave me the money for this game in the States a say after a relatively decent bingo win. Cancer manifested a month later and claimed her after a bitter and anguished struggle. Small objects. Small actions. Important influences. Significant memories.

[@Ternalin]

"YOU LOSE, BIG GUY" - That always made me laugh. Also, RIP Paul Haddad.

[@ItsXodious]

Another great video, Witchy. I know your plan is to still touch on the remakes only after weve blown through the rest of the timeline (including gun survivor!!!) but im eager to hear your retrospectives with the now 2 remakes, given that re3Remake will be out within a month.

[@xenxander]

My own personal head canon is this: Tofu is the cop that shoots down the helicopter in the cut scene. He made it up to the roof.. but gets eaten.. you see?

[@Demospammer9987]

Ngl I love how you used 'that' music for the derpy explanation of RE1. You know which one.

[@d0ntst0pme95]

Do continue making these! I only ever played RE1, and I found these vids an excellent way to learn more about the stories of RE, as well as all the super obscure bullshit like the Tofu mode lol

[@fuzzypanda1684]

I just found your channel and am enjoying it so far. The only advice I'd have is that you should normalize the audio levels a bit more. A lot of the music and sound effects are a lot louder than your voice over. These kinds of videos are good to fall asleep to and that can kinda ruin it.

[@BloodyMelV2]

My absolute favorite game

[@Chubzero1]

These are great keep them up!!

[@dani1o25]

23:00 I'm playing in order and avoiding spoilers, so I didn't know that. Can't say it was a shocking surprise, but still an alright plot twist.

[@FirewolfRedfield]

22:27 Jill meets Barry !

[@ElricSowrd]

This is what I liked about the original! I don't like not only the Layout Design change in the Remake (except adding a bathroom after the mistake that was made in the original), not even retaining the old Design of the factory areas up to the front of the Lab Office which was SHOWN IN RESIDENT EVIL 0!... But the story events don't seem to match up. Which what I liked about the original, how both Leon's and Claire's stories are happening in the same time. The story in the Remake gets confusing when you encounter William in his G3 form: Where was Leon when Claire was fighting this Version of William or where was Claire when Leon was fighting this Version of William and how did Annette die based on if you played as Leon or Claire first? And why couldn't the Remakers get Claire and Sherry's original outfit and Mr. X's face right!? Personally I like the Claire A and Leon B better because not only it's canon and Ada's... supposed end was more emotional, but Leon would be the one to finish off William in his "final form"! 12:39- Mr. X: Hi.

[@bradsly3386]

I feel like the novel by S.D Perry does a really good job of explaining how these scenarios are actually meant to be

[@thomasboy2110]

Great video. I'm more of an RE 1 fan but do love 2 as well

[@gamedotfilm3929]

Love these retrospectives man. RE2 is one of my favs but the boss fights aren't perfection so it's a 9.5/10 for me

[@PyromancerRift]

The C means custom

[@anthonysmith3415]

are you going to do a video where they're doing the the reverse scenarios? cmon it would be awesome

[@TipsterLIVE]

Just thought you should know…the C means “Custom”.

[@Dravianpn02]

Dude please make a dino crisis 2 retrospective.

[@osurpless]

Especially as a means of recognizing RE4 in its action DNA.

[@nicholasc3905]

I love your retrospective series are you going to continue with these videos? (I know this video is 2 years old but hoping to see this series continue)

[@WitchTaunter]

Yeah I will, but this series is just a personal project at the moment. Most my time goes to my job and these videos aren't popular enough to hold themselves up, while also taking a long time to make. I work on them when I can. But I'm glad you like them, means a lot!

[@nicholasc3905]

@@WitchTaunter awesome! Glad to hear it very understandable with the job thing. I look forward to your next video and thanks for the reply it means a lot to me too

[@VileVeilt]

So what's your thoughts on the remake do you have any positives and negatives about the remake or people being overly critical on the remake story compared to the original? What about Resident Evil 4 and Resident Evil 4 remake I would like to hear your opinion on those?

[@jennyperpa5302]

Mr. X walked so Nemesis could run.

[@fantasticdavidson1179]

I like the mix in re 2 remake

[@kenhammscousin4716]

Mr x can bust through solid concrete walls but the wood door eludes him

[@omidmidro]

Perfect

[@shamusmcreary9748]

Leon gets shot then traverses the sewers, can't think of a worse way to get an infection 🤦

[@animeloverryan85]

I know you're being sarcastic at the beginning, but haha I never thought of Leon living an hour or two away from the city. He was fresh out of the academy and I'm almost certain that they would posted him in a city where they needed more cops. That being said, I'm sure he was just moving there, first day on the job.

[@penburger]

Ada may have caught me by surprise if I'd played the original but I played the remake which puts her in a trenchcoat and sunglasses. She's literally dressed like a spy... WTF

[@PeggyHill90210]

Underrated. Probably losing on the algorithm because of your brony content. Ultimately that will prevent you from becoming big imo.

[@WitchTaunter]

Guess I'll just have to get more video game videos rather than brony videos

[@PeggyHill90210]

@@WitchTaunter seriously the content is amazing. I suggest making a second channel and moving the brony stuff there, or the RE stuff may be easier. Because these are amazing and should be seen.

[@WitchTaunter]

@@PeggyHill90210 I'm glad you like my stuff, but in case you weren't aware, I've only made 1 pony video in the last 5 years. Channel could use a redesign maybe, but I'm not sure the older videos existing is that harmful, and I imagine starting over entirely would be more detrimental.
