( No Title )
Ngl i highkey hate how it’s impossible to go into the tags of certain media wituout being flooded by people thirstposting about characters and not being critical or even analytical of the art whatsoever like can people stop focusing on how hot leon s kennedy is and talk to me about how resident evil 2 (1998) handles police corruption and what commentary was lost in the remake
The commentary on police corruption in RE1 and 2 is honestly really good and was basically completely lost in the remake tbh.
The Raccoon City PD is corrupt from the top down, with both Chief Irons and Wesker being beholden to Umbrella.
There’s a ton of material on the fact that Irons, specifically was already known to be corrupt and it was just swept under the rug.
Leon, meanwhile, our “rookie cop” was not only late to his first day of work but in some backstory was late specifically due to an alcoholic stupor…
