So it's established. Elle was annoying AND has the stamina of a boss.paladin181 wrote:Really? She never got hurt in my game unless I intentionally hauled off and smacked her around with the Axe. And even then, she can take a LOT of punishment. I think I got off 3 charged shots with the axe before she died. Needlers only take one, maybe two.

Re: Eileen Nominated for Least Popular Character in Video Ga
Elle is secretly a boss monster with annoyance tactics. Notice how every ending that involves saving her is unsatisfying and stupid, almost as if you got a Game Over? See?

No. And you can't not save Elle. See?

Re: Eileen Nominated for Least Popular Character in Video Ga
^LOL.
Actually while I hated carting Elle around in the sewers, the only thing I cared the slightest bit about in the final level (besides just beating it) was saving Elle.
But I'm glad you don't have to drag her around as much as Maria or Eileen. There's honestly been enough of that in the series. If they do anything like that again, it needs to be a partner thing.

Re: Eileen Nominated for Least Popular Character in Video Ga
^Nah. I played as Sheva for someone for about an hour, and that has been my only exposure to the game.
But now that you mention it....J/K
I meant it would be cool if there was an OPTIONAL second player for the other character, like in that game.
Did you mean like RE5, or just another a.i. present that could help you fight? Or both?

Re: Eileen Nominated for Least Popular Character in Video Ga
If there was an optional second player otherwise led by AI the game difficulty would probably be adjusted for two players, as in RE5. Finishing RE5 on very hard playing solo requires to be some sort of zen master : one hit is enough to get you near-dying, but Sheva (or Chris) mostly watches you die instead of saving you. During the few moments in the game that require the player to run and hide she suicidally throws herself in the fight instead. I think "AI sucks" would be the perfect way to sum up this whole thread.

Ya, I'll agree. Only because when you were with her, you were easily reminded of ESCORT MISSIONS and how bad they suck. And it doesn't help that she attacks anything in sight when you stop!
Re: Eileen Nominated for Least Popular Character in Video Ga
Yes and its like why even go back for her.

Re: Eileen Nominated for Least Popular Character in Video Ga
Eileen is closer to the typical silent hill protagonist than Henry is. Henry should have been in the side character category in any silent hill game other than 4.
Eileen has an actual connection to the circumstances in the past and present of the story. Much like other silent hill main characters, she has a reason to brave the horrors that are thrust upon her. She contemplates the situations around the other characters, and she has a wacky alternate costume. Wait, that last one sounded kind of weak.
Either way, if you think about it, she has more of the qualities in a typical lead character than Henry does. Henry would be a supporting cast character if not for us controlling him and being "number 21."

Re: Eileen Nominated for Least Popular Character in Video Ga
I liked Eileen, both her character and her role. She was actually pretty useful in the game. I would get her to distract enemies while I crept up behind them and unleashed hell. It worked wonders when I was low on healing items.

I loved her! Mostly because I consider her one of the hottest females in game. Especially when shes in her purple outfit. She was annoying at times though, but there are far worse in the gaming world!

At least she could actually fight unlike Ashley and didn't die in the game forcing you to restart. Get the submachine gun bonus weapon, equip her with it, and then suddenly it's a whole different story.

Re: Eileen Nominated for Least Popular Character in Video Ga
Yea, but that submachine gun isn't available on the first playthrough, and if we're going to give Eileen that, we might as well bring up Ashley's unlockable costume that makes her invincible and unkidnappable.

She is more bad ass than Ashley Graham ( re4) though you gotta admit.Pleasant Sinner wrote:Come on now, hate is a STRONG word...then again...jeremyjh wrote:I HATE HER THE END!

You kinda have to race to kill the monsters before Eileen starts swinging away like a crazed baseball hitter, which for adds intensity.
I've found myself at times having to go find eileen, only to find her still beating in the face of a gumhead. Geez.....crazy lady
