Jeff Schine, plays Chris Redfield in Resident Evil Village

He explains that despite Chris's long history of losing comrades throughout the Resident Evil series

Chris completely blames himself for Ethan's death, internalizing it with thoughts of "this is my fault" and "I didn't do enough."

The Hardest Loss: Despite losing many comrades over the years, failing to save a civilian father like Ethan hits Chris the hardest and pushes him to his lowest emotional point.

Desperate Protection: His harsh, secretive behavior during the game came from being exhausted and overwhelmed, keeping Ethan away simply to try and handle the danger alone.

Ethan’s death hits Chris the hardest

Driven by the suffocating guilt of failing Ethan Chris did not isolate himself completely from the Winters family. Instead, he channeled that remorse into protecting Rose

“We already know each other’s worst. We’ve battled right through it and come out the other side unbreakable. There will inevitably be arguments, concessions, and peace treaties drawn up in spilled blood, sweat, and tears. We’re going to have to choose each other, over and over, and be each other’s champion, never letting ourselves forget the good whenever we’re stuck in a patch of bad. It’s going to be work.”

“but you still haven't said you love me.” “that’s not true.” “you haven’t.” “i say it all the time, i just say it very, very quietly. i tell you when you’re in another room, or right after we hang up the phone. i tell you when you’ve got headphones on. i say it after you shut the door behind you. i say it in my head every time you look at me.”
