Birkin being mad at a girl who was at the time 8 years old and being smarter then him always makes me laugh.

Regarding the medals that Alfred wears, in the novelization the narration specifically points out that what he's wearing looks less like an actual uniform and more like a child's idea of what a soldier would look like.

[MaxPain]

that's the thing I hated in Darkside, Alexia killing her brother then going after Claire because she's a psycho🙄. In the original the brother dies from his wounds and Alexia chases Claire for revenge🙁

[bryandingler]

Even now after all these YEARS later that sound Nosferatu makes when he's first introduced sends chills up my spine

[mbank]

I will never forget Alfred’s intimidating

[steveohhh]

**Damn**
Alexander was sitting in that chair for 15yrs!!! Dude when I take a dump on the shitter for to long my legs fall asleep then I stand up with pins & needles feeling!!! I can't imagine how that dude felt

[Elligons]

I always got a Norman Bates vibe from Alfred, since he takes on the persona of his sister as a means to cope with her absence.

The creepy thing about that projector clip of kid Alfred and Alexia is that after they pull the dragonfly's wings off they look like they're about to kiss.

Alfred Ashford also committed his first murder at only the age of 7, with the help and complicity of Alexia. He smartly find a way to give a poison, created by Alexia, to a butler (or a gardener, I don't remember) who worked for their father, as an act of revenge because the guy had made fun of Alexia's dress. Adult Alfred remembers this moment as a very happy memory, as Alexia was very proud of him. She was the brain, he was the arms. This is one of Alfred's flashbacks, detailed in the Code Veronica novel.

Alexia backhanding Wesker sideways up a wall will forever be the best RE cutscene. I hope the remake that should someday come, will combine both the Dreamcast and PS2 (X) version's cutscene of Alexia & Wesker.

Thank you for this video! I love the Ashford's especially Alexia they were such awesome villains! I always liked how Alexia felt like a proper evolution of the antagonists - up to that point most of the main villains were either human or BOW's but Alexia was the first to create a virus that gave her superhuman abilities without destroying her mind!

I really hope someday we can get a CV remake so these twins can be re imagined with modern tech!

[StevieeRayy]

Why isn't RE: CV getting a remake again? 😭😭

Edit:
I WAS DYING OF LAUGHTER @ Kai's "I played through the WHOLE game to test this please hit the like button lol" because we all know how God awful this game can be difficulty wise. lol

[MarinetteDupainCheng]

imo, The Twins were the most scariest part in CV.

[zaozao]

Code Veronica was my first RE game. So this video about the Ashford twins means a lot to me.

[rantayo]

Not surprised if out of nowhere appears a new Ashford, like some backup child in case Alexia was a total fail, who was kept in secret.

[TheHuskyGT]

"There REALLY IS an Alexia!!??"


I played this game way too many times. At first I didn't like it, but then it became one of my favorites. Such an underrated entry in the franchise.

[David-lkbt]

My favorite RE villains 🙏🏻 I was always fascinated with their backstory and found them so interesting. Wish we had more complex characters like this.

Additional fact:
In the file *Virus Research Report* which is found in the room with Alexia's cryogenic capsule, Alexia specofically refers to Alfred as a "soldier ant".
Knowing that Alexia sees herself as a queen ant, it supports the likely possibility that Alexia's and Alfred's relationship was incestious...

Also, in the Code Veronica novel, we're given many more interesting details about Alexia Ashford's powers provided by the T-Veronica virus. We learn that she developed a high, superhuman power of perception: she's now telepathic (to the point of even reading her father's mind before he dies), she can see how things are going in Rockford island like she was there, she also practices telekinesis (even in Rockford island while she's in Antarctica, thousands of kilometers away), she uses to "guide" Chris and lead him to Claire (using Claire as a bait, that is), so both of them can be at her mercy. She does that by unlocking doors of the Antarctica facility for him, moving stones to make them show him the right path, switching the lights off to indicate he's going the wrong way, etc. You can see here how she planned Chris's and Wesker's arrival in the Antarctica facility so she can use them as test subject and get entertained by the whole "drama" as she calls it.
In fact, her consciousness had waken up weeks before Alfred's death, as she was basically watching the scenes with her mind and only decides to come out when Alfred comes to die at her feet (which she does by manipulating the machines that kept her in hibernation with her mind). That's why the computers start to work again on their own to let her go when Alfred comes to see her one last time: she uses telekinesis on them to free herself.
That is if you consider the novelization canon.
