Resident Evil, I'm So Done With The Winters Family

thegamer.com:

We have known for a while that Resident Evil Village DLC was coming, but none of us knew what to expect from it. There was the feeling that perhaps the expansion would be more of a prequel. After all - spoiler alert... weewooweewoo... spoiler alert - following the ending of Village (seriously, spoilers incoming, don't make me use the siren again) Ethan Winters died. More accurately, he died during the events of Biohazard, and was just a weird spore man for a significant chunk of Biohazard and all of Village, an explanation that's so nutty I have three friends who are allergic to it. Village saw him dead for realsies though, buried and everything, with his daughter Rosemary visiting his grave while under the care of shady government officials, all after a timeskip that takes her from a babe in arms to a teenager. It's on Rose that the DLC sequel, titled Shadows of Rose, will revolve around.

Rose is subject to the reverse of her father's fate in Village - while Ethan is alive but not really, Rose is dead but not really. We are told that Rose is dead and churned up into pieces, with the game tasking us with assembling the pieces of her into a macabre jigsaw to bring her back. Except she was never dead in the first place, and neither was our wife who was shot dead in front of us, but we are, which makes the whole thing even more ridiculous. Aside from all that, the breakout star of Village was Lady Dimitrescu, and given that she dies in the first couple of hours (playtime, as always, varies heavily with Resi games), a prequel is the only way to get her back on board.

But we're ploughing forward with Rose. The expansion will see Rose try to rid herself
