The timeline I would be using:
https://1drv.ms/x/s!AuizEczRvCHkiHLuXEUvAjkV7cjY?e=6f1g8r

The 25th anniversary of RE is coming up on March 22 and I've been running ideas in my head of what I want to do for it. I think a timeline playthrough & analysis would be a blast but only if people were genuinely interested in reading it. I'd play through the games in their canon order and then discuss their place in the story and how they connect and interact with other games in the series before and after. I aim to make it a pretty breezy, casual read so you wouldn't have to be a hardcore canon expert to enjoy it and it would be a pretty fast paced topic since I know the games like the back of my hand and I would aim to finish it before the release of RE8.

What you can expect:
  • Complete coverage of all canon events (ranging from games to movies to novellas to musicals)
  • Occasional discussion of non-canon media (Operation Raccoon City, RE comics) and how they could potentially connect to and inform canon events
  • Comparison between original games and the RE Engine remakes
  • General story beats, character profiles/history, Easter eggs & tidbits
What I wouldn't be covering:
  • RE mangas (they're interesting but way too much of their own thing to fit in coherently anywhere)
  • SD Perry novels (while some of the original books offer some stuff to talk about in regards to the main canon it's best to just disregard these)
  • Anything related to the live-action films
  • Character appearances in non-RE games
  • Pachinko machines
If this is something you would like to see, please let me know! I wouldn't start it until March 22 just to give me time to prepare a few things and well, that's when the anniversary is. If no one is interested in this i still have other things in mind so no worries.

This topic concept already made me happy.

But the fact that the FZL lives on makes me even happier.

...Aw, bit of a shame The Hive's the only Outbreak scenario that doesn't fit in the timeline... although I can't... really imagine how it would, honestly.

...And I haven't even heard of a number of the later events on the timeline. o-o''

Oh thanks for pointing that out, I will be playing and discussing all the Outbreak scenarios, I must've just forgotten to put it on the timeline. I will fit it best I can!
