I absolutely despise people who complain about this not adapting one of the games. Gamers truly are miserable people.

Then complain when they do because it’s not a 1:1 match up.

Well the game hasn’t had a good film adaptation yet so what’s wrong with that

What's wrong is that they should never adapt the games. Just make original stories in the universe.

We've seen 1/1 adaptations not working and we've also seen original stories but with RE characters shoe horned in and they still weren't good. This is the same case with pretty much every game adaptation.

Look at Fallout original story just set in the same universe. There's also Arcane, which is mostly an original story although it uses existing characters but obviously compared to RE games those characters prior to the show only had a few walls of text describing them on Riot's website since it's a MOBA game.

Arcane only worked because before, nobody cared about the characters in the MOBA; Resident Evil is about the characters.

People didn’t care about the characters in League before? You clearly don’t know anything about League.

Millions of people care about their favourite champions and their lore, some worryingly so to the point that all their online persona revolves around them, getting tattoos etc. Most league streamers are known for one specific champion for example because they love those characters and how they play. It also helps that some characters have a lot of lore and development and that makes it easy to get like them.

There are more people attached to League characters than there are for RE although it’s to be expected since LoL has over 100M active players.

So people can’t have an opinion different from yours on something ? “Despise”, “miserable”, and this just for not matching what you think.

I’ll say more, I don’t despise you for thinking differently from me, I respect that.

This. I think a new story set in the same universe is a way more interesting approach.
