Capcom told Leon's actor to "forget everything" for Resident Evil 4
There are a few characters that are just built different. For me, it's World of Warcraft's Sylvanas Windrunner, or Dragon Age's Morrigan - perhaps even add Uncharted's Nathan Drake to the list. But my roster is relatively obscure, based around the games I played (and was allowed to play) as a child. While I loved all things gory, my mom wasn't as keen, meaning things like Silent Hill and Resident Evil weren't exactly accessible to me. If they had been, though, I know that Capcom's horror series would have quickly become a favorite, and Leon Kennedy would have defined my childhood as much as the Witch of the Wilds or the Banshee Queen.
