In RE2 I thought it was going to happen. It would have made more sense if it did. The two of them had a lot of chemistry together. Many fan fic writers and fan artist “See” this. Even S.D. Perry the writer of the Resident Evil novels saw this as well. This can be seen in “Resident Evil: Underworld.”
Leon is the strong, nice, quiet, understanding, trusting, loving, sweet, and sometimes funny young man. Claire is the strong, sometimes independent, caring, loving, and sweet young woman. These two were made for each other. I alone have four boxes filled with Leon&Claire fan fic stories and two boxes filled with Leon&Claire fan art.
According to the original plan for RE: CV, Leon was originally planned to have a major role in the plot and eventually meet his doom. Mikami stated it in an interview when talking about Biohazard 4 and Leon. He said that he quickly changed their minds as Leon proved to be a popular character, and instead created the character Steve. Originally Claire and Leon where slated to fall in love with Leon "dying" like Steve does at the end.
You know, to me this whole thing with Leon and Ada and Claire and Steve is like they’re trying to have that whole thing of opposites attracting and trying to have characters falling in love in a matter of seconds or hours. Well opposites don’t attract, they “attack” and that’s what happens to Leon. Studies (http://abcnews.go.com/Technology/DyeHard/Story?id=1023122&page=1) from ABC’s 20/20(http://abcnews.go.com/Video/playerIndex?id=1977144) have shown that more and more people look for things that they have in common with others. Look how much Leon and Claire have in common. And this whole thing with Leon… and Ashley doesn’t make any sense at all and is just simply wrong and dumb as hell.
Now you can’t be both a Leon/Claire fan and a Leon/Ada fan or even a Claire/Steve fan all at the same time. You have to pick one. For one thing unlike Leon/Claire… Ada has nothing in common with Leon. She already had a boyfriend, John, and she really didn’t care that he died; she got over him pretty quickly. Of course she really didn’t care about him at all. She left Leon when he got shot, used Leon twice to retrieve a sample of the G-virus and the Las Plagas. She withheld the truth from him up until her "death" in RE2, still didn't tell him the truth in RE4 and openly admits that he's an asset in one of her reports. She’s untrusting, uncaring and she’s the type of character who lies so many times you can never ever be sure if she’s telling the truth or not. You’ll never know when she’ll backstab you.
What happens in RE2 and in RE4 is proof of all of that. Leon is none of these things. These two couldn’t be any more different. Leon is the type of person who wants to do the right thing and that’s shown in RE2, RE4 and in RE: Degeneration where he says, “I'm gonna scrub this virus from the face of the earth!” It’s the same thing with Claire, she’s a member of a non-governmental origination that handles search and rescue operations regarding chemical and bioterrorist attacks in RE: Degeneration. Ada is not that type of person at all, she doesn’t think of others, she thinks of only herself. You have to recognize that a character like Leon doesn’t work with a character like Ada. Whatever Leon and Ada had… it wasn’t love or even a partnership. How can you even have a partnership with someone you can’t even trust at all?? But Leon and Claire are fully able to trust each other.
In RE2 Leon and Ada were only with each other for only a few hours or minutes at the most and 6 years go by of these two of not seeing or hearing from each other at all. In RE4 they are once again with each other for only a few hours or minutes… and that’s suppose to be some type of love relationship between these two?? Give me a fucking break. It’s the same thing between Claire and Steve, it’s not believable one bit.
Having said that, if Leon and Claire did end up together in RE2 during that same time span I would still criticizes it for it happening too fast. But at least it would have had two people who are right for each other.
I don’t care how well written it is or how anyone puts it (It’s never well-written at all because it’s entirely unrealistic in every single way) you don’t fall in love with a person within a few seconds or minutes of knowing a person. When you love someone that means you nearly know everything about them, if not everything, who they are, where them came from, what there like, what they do, what they like or don’t like, what they believe or don’t believe in, what there past was like for them like there childhood and so on. Nearly every movie, book, comic book, and video game critic has criticizes stuff like that as being not believable at all. Love... real love happens in years... not within hours, minutes, or seconds.
Steve who was only 17 years old and knew nothing of love and knew nothing about Claire… he only liked what he saw. He was thinking with his dick. Steve also nearly dated raped Claire when he tried to steal a kiss from her. That’s pretty low for someone to try and do. That just shows how much of a dumb pathetic loser he is… or was (Steve fans sympathies and either ignore or make excuses for such behavior… even when such a thing happens in real life they try to make it seem that anybody would do that……… it just goes to show you that there are just some people out there who are really heartless, ignorant and don’t care or just don’t get it). It’s something a lot of Steve fans ignore or make excuses for.
If anyone is going to use that love at first sight excuse… well I don’t believe in that. Because how can you love someone when you know next to nothing about him or her at all. If you think about it……… people who do that are basing that they love this person based on looks alone.
But because Leon and Claire have much in common… over time they would come to love each other.
The people who make the Resident Evil games say they want to make as many RE games as there are James Bond films. If that’s the case then they shouldn’t rush the relationships with the characters in the games. They could or should have taken there time with that. But the writers of the RE games are just terribly at writing romance. Some of us see Ada and steve for what they really are and that the writers of RE screwed up with the romance element in the storyline. There really never should have been a romance part going on in any RE game. Not with a storyline that’s trying to have events going on that only last a few hours.
When I say I’m a Leon/Claire fan... I mean I’m a real Leon/Claire fan. I only want them to be together. But I don’t see that many so-called L/C fans as being real fans at all. Many are lying or just fooling themselves. Many would just change their minds in an instant. If you're not a "real" Leon/Claire fan.... then don't bother me.
Now if these two don’t get together in the game then I will be of course disappointed… but I would come to deal with it. |
