Description
On March 1st, a small YouTuber posted a video claiming he was the first to solve the most convoluted puzzle Resident Evil has ever had. And almost nobody believed him.
This is the story of the Final Puzzle in Resident Evil Requiem: a two-playthrough, extremely complex challenge that Capcom's own director expected to take players at least two weeks to crack (it took four days).
This covers the DNA cipher half of the puzzle that got solved the normal way, Gengar's story, the datamined solve, and the community's reaction.
A huge thank you to GengarCollects, KyroGeorge, and RantsyCancy for their willingness to talk to some random YouTuber.
More Requiem? Here's my video on what's hiding outside the map's boundaries: https://youtu.be/E0xU541FEtw

💬 Let me know in the comments your theories on how this was supposed to be solved.
Requiem 9 font used in the thumbnail is by the talented Peter Jonca. You can find his work on DeviantArt under his handle: Snakeyboy.
