Resident Evil Requiem voice actors Angela Sant\u2019Albano, Emma Rose Creaner and Jane Perry took the stage at MCM Comic Con at London Excel on May 22nd to reveal behind-the-scenes stories from one of the biggest games of the year.<\/p>\n
When asked about how it feels to be part of such a successful IP like Resident Evil, Sant\u2019Albano, the voice actor for Grace Ashcroft, replied: \u201cI remember thinking, you know what, all that I want to focus on and all I care about is that people like Grace \u2013 that haven\u2019t been a heroine in a big thing or who haven\u2019t had a chance \u2013 get to see themselves in these roles. I just wanted to do justice for them.\u201d<\/p>\n
The character of Grace is known for her traumatic scenes throughout Resident Evil Requiem, and Sant\u2019Albano went on to discuss getting into character, saying \u201cI\u2019m not a screamer in everyday life but screaming was very natural to me\u201d.<\/p>\n
Later in the day, id Software co-founder and Doom creator John Romero then took to the Side Quest Stage to share his game development insights. Romero expressed his admiration for Half-Life 2, declaring that \u201cHalf-Life 2 is one of the greatest shooters ever made. Other people have not replicated what they did, it was hard to do.\u201d<\/p>\n
He also discussed his biggest regret at id Software. sharing: \u201cIf we knew the game was going to take 11 months, we would have made a new game with Doom\u2019s tech or a piece of Quake\u2019s tech whilst the rest of the team continues making the engine. The first game would have taken a few months. Tom Hall and I agreed we should have made two games.\u201d<\/p>\n
He then revealed, somewhat surprisingly, that he made no money from Quake. \u201cWhen I left, I didn\u2019t see any money from Quake.\u201d<\/p>\n
Finally, Romero explained what he feels in missing from modern shooters, sharing: \u201c90s shooter design has a lot of elements modern games don\u2019t have. Secrets are way too easy to find. There\u2019s not nested secrets, like triple nested secrets. If you do find a secret it\u2019s usually because you\u2019re going down a path and choose to look left. You\u2019re not breaking walls or shooting a target that\u2019s super hard to see. People aren\u2019t doing that, there\u2019s been a focus on the simplification of shooters.\u201d<\/p>\n
Further video game panels over the weekend include Behind the Voice with Hitman (4:45pm on may 23rd) and Lesser Known Roles in Video Games (11:30am on May 24th).<\/p>\n
