Yup, why even bother.
Chris sucks. He's the inferior protagonist in every single game he's in.
Well, that's definitely my opinion. I didn't mind him in RE and CVX, but I certainly didn't clamor for him. If anything, every appearance of Leon has been fantastic, especially RE4. Chris has always been very boring to me, especially when they went in the direction of making him a meathead to up him being a badass.
Chris is extremely popular with people on the production teams being from the original game,
Guess we'll disagree then. I don't see what's cool about the appearances Chris makes in any of his games. As I said, I appreciate him in the first game because it was his first foray into the story, but that's also why I enjoy Leon in RE2, who I think had a stronger first appearance compared to Chris and eventually an even better evolution of character. After that Chris developed in such an unappealing way to me.
I don't really think that Chris is THAT popular... he had the lowest ranking out of the main characters in the poll made last year here in ERA.
LmaoI'll just fire off some bullet points:
- He's been in the series since the first game, so there's that initial attachment to the character a lot of fans have.
- Chris is arguably the most dedicated of the bunch in stopping Bioterrorism, and the foil to Albert Wesker.
- His role in Code Veronica won a lot of fans over, as the big brother coming to protect his little sister from the baddies.
- He's good looking, so points for that.
- As far as meme material goes, Chris has given some of the best shit in the series.

I won't skip it but Ethan sucks. Have we learned anything about him since 7's release that makes him anything but a blank character?
I can't really explain why I like him, but I guess it's because I started Resident Evil with REmake and RE5. But I honestly don't think he's more boring than other RE protagonists.
I suppose it depends on when someone took the plunge into the series. For me, I started with RE2 and then moved onto RE4. Maybe my opinion would've developed differently had I played the other entries first and had exposure to Chris before Leon, but even if I had, just thinking about both characters, I seriously can't identify anything more appealing about him than Leon. I really can't.I'll just fire off some bullet points:

My mistake!! I would have swore that Claire ranked better than Chris... my memories betrayed me lolAre you referring to this?

On that thread, Chris ranked #3 with Leon #2 and Jill #1.
I'll hate it because it stars Chris and Ethan, the two dullest characters in Resident Evil. That and the occult nonsense and supposedly first person again. I literally have heard nothing about this game that interests me actually :(
Don't put my guy Ethan with Christopher, he was only cool in RE5 in a rambo like way. Ethan at least knows how to react appropiately to the situation 🤭
Who are you, Paul W.S. Anderson?
Ah shit lol. How about evil leprechauns or gingerbread men
This was just only the tease
