Jack Krauser from the Resident Evil 4 game versus V from V for Vendetta. Jack is armed with two bowie knifes, V is armed with two of his knives. They fight in the rain on a deserted street at night. Who would win?
V has mega damage soak due to hormonal experimentation but Krauser is special forces/black ops military trained along with enhanced strength and reflexes because of Las Plagas.
In the final Leon/Jack fight, Jack is soaking up bullets and nades on a level that V never did, and without armor. Can we count that? Actual gameplay footage?
Gameplay mechanics are almost never considered a canonical. Consider any Star Wars game out there. Are we really supposed to assume that the characters can tank a lightsaber attack? Of course not. The same thing applies to RE.
I forgot about some of the video game mechanics and how we need to approach them. I'm new to modding VG characters and I have to listen to both sides to be fair.
I think the safest way to accept video game stuff is cutscenes or interactive combat. But if something in gameplay goes with the cutscene, it should be allowed.
Wesker in RE5 was only dazed by an RPG blowing up in his face, but with the damage we've seen him tank, it's not just gameplay, it could happen in cutscene too for example.
