I don’t know how to format this post. It’s just a random bunch of facts about Victor.

He is 2.25 meters tall (7'4"). No, he's not 2.4 meters, despite what many people think.

I did all subsequent calculations using AI.

Given his height and build, he should weigh around 140–160 kg (310–350 lbs). Personally, I lean toward the 150 kg mark. (So yeah, missionary style with him is not a great option. RIP to your pelvis.)

Knowing this data, I got curious: how much does Victor need to drink to get drunk?

At 150 kg and 2.25 m tall, his blood and tissue volume is significantly higher than average, so intoxication would set in much slower. Here is the calculation based on the standard formula (0.5 g of ethanol per kg of body weight for a light buzz):

• Light buzz: ≈ 5–6 glasses. Requires ~75 g of pure alcohol. A 150 ml glass of wine (12% ABV) contains 14.4 g of alcohol.

• Moderate intoxication: ~10–12 glasses.

• Heavy intoxication: 15–16 glasses or more.

The verdict: Outdrinking him is impossible. Your liver would probably fail before he even gets tipsy.

A useful reference for artists. This is what his scars look like under his clothes. On his normal map, there are cracks detailed on the back of his forearm, while the inner side of his arm has almost no damage. There are also cracks on his shoulders. The rest of his body looks normal, though. Naturally, it made no sense for the texture artist to add detail to areas the player would never see, but for some reason, these scars on his arms and shoulders are actually there. And I like to think that this is his canon appearance.

So, it turns out Victor's skin is in the worst shape on his arms and face – the exposed areas of his body. Meanwhile, on his stomach, except for the surgical scar, the skin is relatively smooth. Could this be related to sunlight and the fact that it's harmful to those infected with the T-virus? In the mutated Marie, this manifested in an extreme form. Victor, on the other hand, was rotting gradually over the years, and his skin condition kept getting worse and worse in the places most exposed to the sun. And this got me thinking that, in that case, his dick should look normal👀

Let’s take a closer look at his clothes. He wears a biker vest. I don’t know why, but I find it hilarious. I laughed even harder when I looked at his shoes and suddenly realized they were cowboy boots. To be more precise, they are Western harness ankle boots, which are also quite popular among bikers.

By the way, his boots are 43.9 cm long, which corresponds to a European shoe size 68 (US size ~24).

Looking at the finer details, you can notice that his vest is splattered with blood, and the fasteners are covered in something black that looks like motor oil. Did he get messy while tinkering with his bike?

If you've been plagued by the question of whether Victor wears underwear, the answer is yes, he does. You can see the waistband of his briefs on his normal map. Enjoy living with this piece of information.

Among the models, I managed to find this zombie body with the exact same underwear (that normal map is practically burned into my retina, I recognized it instantly).

I tried to fit this underwear onto Victor. do not judge me

Rumination is probably the most common type of OCD compulsion, but I rarely see anyone talking about it. I've talked to multiple people diagnosed with OCD who didn't even recognize it as a compulsion.

Basically, if you have OCD you have terrible intrusive thoughts. They can be about anything, but common themes are fear of being a bad person, fear of hurting someone, fear of contamination. etc.

Rumination is when you get stuck in a spiral. Rumination is when you spend hours catastrophizing, overthinking, analyzing, telling yourself it's going to be okay.

I'll say it again:

Rumination is a compulsion.

Rumination is a compulsion, and that means you have to stop doing it.

I did ERP (exposure response prevention) for my OCD with a therapist! For 9 months! And it did help, but the idea didn't really click until I found this website a couple years later.

And Oh My God. It made things make so much more sense, and I was able to pull myself out of an episode even though I wasn't in therapy or on meds at the time.

Genuinely if you have OCD, or even if you suspect you have OCD, I'm begging you to read some of these articles.

Like this was genuinely life changing for me.
