Resistance is a criminally underrated franchise

Russia in 1920: Civil Waring for like 3 years

Damn I miss those good old days, Resistance 2 was such a good game. I never knew why it wasnt such a succes like other triple A titles

Resistance had so much potential and it deserves a spotlight! Honestly, if they made a prequel set in Russia, I think it could be successful. Imagine that: A survival horror game that puts the player into a scenario in which the armies of the largest country on Earth are starting to be overrun. Malikov creates the Cloven. The Cloven go crazy and sack Moscow. You could be put up against early Chimeran warriors, the Cloven, and even hostile humans desperate to survive. You could even encounter the series' "mythical" creatures, like the Leben Geist. If they wanted to stick with the military theme of the previous games, then they could make the protagonist a soldier and maybe have him be part of an effort to stop the Chimera from breaching the border wall. It would really stand out among other games of the genre, as it's a unique mix between an alien invasion scenario and a sort of zombie apocalypse.

The ending of Resistance 2 is still one of the best endings in first person shooters.

I always found the Chimera as the most terrifying alien species ever. Not as much because they transformed humanity into an endangered species (but also every encounter with them was terrifying in the games, making you clear that there was no way to winning a war against them), as because they are a virus hive mind.
You might think "there are plenty of those in fiction". Yeah, but normally they are animalistic. Unlike the Chimera, who have technology thousands of years more advanced than humankind.

I’ve always wanted to know more bout the lore behind these guys. My life has been made better!

The chimera reminds me about the tyranids from 40k universe but with high levels of technology + cyborgs and not just eating all the life of a world but making all the life of world one of them, in 40k standarts with some rebalancing in combat they would become a very powerful race.

I was pretty terrified of the chimera when I was younger

Resistance: Fall of Man was the first game I played on PS3

I haven't played resistance for ages it's good to remember it

1949 was the beginning of the end of Humanity, 1957 was the beginning of the end of the Chimera

I hope they do a trilogy remaster. Resistance 1-3 were badass!

I miss this game.I wish there would be a resistance 4

I remembered playing this game back in 2008, it gave me nightmares because of the cutscene where the protagonist (Nathan Hale)  we're swarmed by the Crawlers(creepy, crawlies,  cockroach type of enemies)  and went inside his mouth.

It really makes you wonder... In the ancient past, the Chimera clearly had dominated the planet; they'd not only had the time to build all their towers and nexus points and all that, and all the underground infrastructure connecting them, but then something happened, and they all just packed up, put everything away underground and 'left', or went into dormancy. Imagine building a house for yourself with all the trimmings and shiny bits...only to turn the power off, drain the pipes, lock and board the doors up, and then erase the road leading to while you went and took a nap outside in the firepit.

Checking the Wiki, it mentions that they ran afoul of another race, which might be why they packed up and left. Which begs the question... who was so powerful that, even if they didn't attack the Chimera-infested Earth of the past, it made them pull ALL their resources and creations away, and had them HIDE their stuff so it wouldn't be found easily? Bury it so deep that humanity never even knew it was there, no matter where we dug or how we dug, until that day in Russia....

YES!!!! FUCKING YES!!! IT WAS ABOUT TIME THAT SOMEONE GIVE THE RESISTANCE SERIES SOME LOVE!!!! THANKS!!!!!

The chimeran hivemind command system is quite interesting and very complex and ever since daedalus took over it went full overhauled

We need a full remaster of this series or a reboot, you could also expand the lore, and have campaigns during the European wars, Asian wars, and a rejuvenated Britain and American campaign.
