Chris Redfield And Jill Valentine

[AlphaZeroX96]

So what do you guys think of these two Resident Evil characters? They're considered to be pretty iconic. Especially Jill. What would you say about them? Do you think they're great or overrated?

i prefer leon and claire, because they have quite a bit more personality than chris and jill. chris has quite a bit of personality in the newer games, but pretty much zero in the older ones. jill has never really had much of a personality beyond "tough and determined", but her design is possibly one of the most iconic in video games so i would not really consider her generic.

I do like how unique their personalities are - As in, it doesn't feel all that forced, you know?

Many videogames tend to carry at least one character whose personality feels forced, too pushed onto the character and so despite the character merely being themself, it doesn't feel like them or all that natural because many of the aspects of the previously estabilished personality don't match the expected behavior from such a personality, hence why people dislike it and those practices.

But it's not like Jill's and Chris's personalities do appeal to me.
I mean, possibly as it's not the worst, but my preferences and dreams do still lie somewhere else..
