Censorship is always shitty. No matter how small or insignificant you find it. Not caring about tits or panty shots doesn't make you any more virtuous than the rest of us. Sounds like hypocrisy to me. 🤷♂
I defended the existence of that mechanic, while also saying that I didn't care much that it was gone. It doesn't bother me that its gone, but yeah, it sucks that they're removing stuff. Even stuff like this, where the is a contextual reason such as the sleaziness of being a tabloid reporter.
I think discounting arguments from "that crowd" kinda diminishes the nature of the complaints tbh. I think any changes to appease the "modern audience" makes the game they're creating feel less and less from a design aesthetic. I've played this game since it first game out and I'm a fan girl for the first game through and through. I think even the smallest changes matter, especially to a game of its time. It just feels disingenuous in a way, especially when you take from a perspective of maintaining a game of that time period. People have become too sensitive to a point where they felt there are problems for how people actually dressed in that time and place (a lot of Capcom's character designs and models are inspired by reference photos from a trip to America to use as references for NPCs, zombies and Willamette Parkview Mall in genera for Dead Rising). It makes it just a little less immersive in my opinion; if it's set in 2006, let it depict what the developers brought back in their character designs and reference photos. It's smaller compared to the changes made to Cliff, which are a travesty since it denigrates his character and sanitizes one of the many iconic parts of the game. However, it's still something to think about: I think making any of these changes sanitizes the true experience. Removing features, sanitizing content and scrubbing and re-writing lines in the game, changing entire casts and getting non-union actors which hurts the quality without a good or incredible voice director, altering game difficulty which lessens the spirit of the original title, etc. I agree with you on a lot of points, but changing anything in a game in an effort to appease to an audience that hasn't played the game and probably won't just because they're sensitive to the teeniest, tiniest thing is a bad habit in the gaming industry that needs to die along with other habits like shoehorning in microtransactions into single player experiences, slapping DRM onto single-player games, etc. If they want to experience the game like Dead Rising fans experienced it, it should be left untouched in most if not all aspects and shouldn't cost anyone $40 or $60 bucks for a game that's less of an experience than an almost 20 year old game that's now under $10-$20.
@@genaprice8775 I agree with a lot of that. But I'm guessing my "that crowd" comment was misunderstood which is my fault, I meant the grifter content goons who don't actually care about Dead Rising or the topic in general. They just pick whatever the "anti-progressive" stance is and then moan about that, like that Egg man and Starfield having pronouns. Or any one of the many losers who work at The Daily Wire, Tim Pool, Andrew Taint, etc.
@@VaughanDavies I mean, I kinda get it. At the same time, I think I sorta see where they come from and this is coming from someone who' "supposed" to like choosing pronouns in games or stuff like that when I find it just... eh. I mean, from my standpoint, for companies to focus on censorship or things like representation a bit or a lot over game quality doesn't really sit right with me. That's how I perceive it. Starfield was buggy as hell and still is at launch and a lot of content can't be filled in by the amount of mods you can strap onto the game, especially how unstable mods have been with Starfield since it bugs out a lot of the time just out of nowhere (the sound cutting out and requiring you to uninstall them then reinstall them gets annoying when it doesn't even fix the problem lol). I guess I'm just mainly focused on game quality more than anything: graphics, engine stability, playability, quality of writing. In this case of the DR Remake, just keeping it the way it is was all Capcom needed to do. The game really does still withstand the test of time even with all the features that just aren't "with the times". It was never meant to be with the times; it was just meant to be immersive, difficult, fun and unique. Games these days just focus too much on social subjects or if the game is inclusive (Games have been more inclusive than people realized and I played a LOT of games) or if the game's story, content and dialogue is gonna offend someone, which is why I'm just so turned away from the Dead Rising remake. New players won't be able to experience the game like we did on Day One: every feature, the amazing voice cast, the quality of the game, little microtransactions (the game did have purchasable DLC but the prices for them were pretty light. I think under $5 for the outfits on the 360. Meanwhile, this game is coming out with a list of DLC that'll definitely be more expensive than that (the game jumped up another 10-20 because of the pre-order bonuses). Yes, the game had issues; the AI had to be fixed because there were issues from the get-go because survivors would try and follow Psychopaths like they were Frank and the pathfinding was broken for Survivors. However, those changes don't change the essence of the game per say. I don't know... Maybe I'm just one of those girls that doesn't care a lot for adding in pronouns or social stuff when I'm focused on if the game works or is fun to play or, in the case of a reboot/remake/remaster, wonder if the game stays faithful to its identity, works well and plays well. I can kinda get annoyed at unnecessary additions or stuff that just seems so eh when the developers should've focused on making sure the writing was good or if the game was good to play. While I won't make a big fuss of it, it has been getting annoying over the years and more blatant as games that focus on that suffer in a lot of other categories (writing, stability, gameplay, etc.), which as somebody who spends money to have fun like a lot of other people, it kinda sucks when those games aren't fun, get annoying in writing due to how cringey or just... awful it can be in quality or performed by the voice actor, are bugged to death with bugs that shouldn't be there on day one, etc. Idk. That's just me. But I do agree with you on most of the points on the game, though. What the game presents just seems so... ugh.

They haven't been doing so hot in recent years when it comes to that in some key areas (very predatory with microtransactions) but maybe the company needs a kick in the pants and start treating all their titles with care.

I didn't have it in my script, but I had complained about the performance and pop-in of zombies in the underground tunnel ad-lib style. But I cut it because it didn't flow properly and sounded unnatural when I recorded It. It just didn't fit and I was being lazy, not wanting to re-record an ad-libbed tangent. Next time, I make a video like this, I'm just gonna pause and add the line. I was way too concerned about keeping the video under 15 minutes that I didn't bother adding more lines to the script. So, what I ad-libbed was pretty much this, "oh yeah, and I saw footage of the underground tunnels and it looks worse than the original. It feels like there's less zombies than the original and the pop-in looks terrible" and then it didn't flow nicely until whatever the next part was. It clashed so I cut it, which I should have just adjusted the script to make it sound better. I noticed the FPS drops and I gave them a pass because it's an early build, but if the game releases with performance issues, all of us will complain. So I'm hoping they fix that shit as they should. Mods will fix a lot of shit I suspect, and while I'm getting the game on Xbox, I will get the game on PC a few years down the line for mods (if everything works out that way.)

I was extremely disappointed by Dead Rising 4, that game is just terrible all around, also you made a pointless earlier in your message about the DLC of the remake costing more than the original's DLC outfits cost. I fully agree. It's bullshit. I hope Capcom cools it with the microtransactions and starts treating their games with more care, but unless being greedy twats begins to be the actual cause of what damages their profits, and not just the games being broken or shit, then I doubt they'll do that. All these big companies are going to shit. They're greedy as fuck, and the guys at the top are hogging all the bonuses and money from their employees, because they don't care about the games, gaming or the fans. They're just money guzzling parasites. Dead Rising fans deserve better, and I personally don't trust Capcom to get it right. I like Capcom, but they make it very hard to like them with the bullshit they pull sometimes. Same as all the big developers. Even SEGA pisses me off, and I ADORE their Yakuza series. The bullshit with locking New-Game+ behind a paywall was extremely shitty and I hope the backlash made them reconsider doing it in the future, as that 100% hurt the games sales and the series reputation, which will no doubt, anger the brilliant folks at Ryu Ga Gotoku Studios.
@@Dopamiin3 That's good, I'm just hoping some of the stuff I mentioned in the video such as the game being reported as "too easy" isn't the case, and it's just due to the fact, the game is not fully released yet.
"I care about actually censorship. Not... bullshit." Mate, what you are referring to as bullshit and not real censorship has literally been one of the prime examples of censorship in modern history.
@@brandonmcgregor9912 or I'm just not fussed about virtual tits or getting XP rewards for taking panty-shots. I have no problem with them being in the game, but them being cut isn't a massive deal. Is it silly to cut that stuff? Yes. I will criticise that they didn't need to cut those things. But I'm not bothered that they're gone either.
@@VaughanDavies And that's fair enough to not personally care. But even putting the fact aside that some people consider those things contribute to the game's iconic vibe (or just outright opposing the censorship in principle), that doesn't make your dismissal (and it was a dismissal) of such complaints logical.
I was about 12 years old when I played dead rising 1 too and it scared the crap outta me I still find the zombie noises creepy lol Resident evil 4 also scared the piss outta my 12 year old self lol good times Edit: Also PP awarded was buffed for the preview version
Yeah Dead Rising had me shitting myself as a kid. Ironically though, I played RE4 a ton on the Nintendo Wii as a kid. Also, I hope you're right about the preview exp. Guess we'll find out in roughly two weeks.
Yup got me too lol....just gonna get the standard edition cuz....i really dont care for the extra costumes that cones with the other edition @leoonetto2756
Cancel culture isn't real, and Capcom certainly won't get "cancelled". While I get what you're saying, I think they were too cautious and it ends up feeling unnecessary. At the very least, if they'd just made the change less lazy, I'd be fine with it. But they didn't. They were SUPER lazy with this change.
Dead Rising without difficulty isn't dead rising at all. Imagine Dark Souls but you had infinite health, Or Sekiro but the game Auto parried for you. What's even the point? "survival horror" means. Nothing anymore.
I said it to you in a different comment, but I'll say it here too. Dead rising was never a survival horror. The only way for it to be a survival horror is if you actively ignore the constant guns, weapons, and healing items the game gives you. You'd have to ignore how every single plaza has an Uzi hidden in it. Have to ignore the food court. Have to ignore the infinite orange juice in the main plaza. Have to ignore the gun shop, the samurai sword, the boss weapons. It's a comedy horror. The fact you call it a survival horror just tells me you either A: don't know what a survival horror is, or B; played like an idiot.
@@camharkness Most people play Dead Rising for the first time like a complete moron. They think its just a dumb zombie killing game, but then they get pissed off and whine about how hard it is.
Im 23 and my hairline is worse than franks i also have the same body type so it's nice to get some ugly boy representation i get mistaken for being in my 30s Lowest I've had is 29 so we exist unfortunately
Yeah it's why I gave them the benefit of the doubt in the video with the whole "genetically" unlucky bit where I called him the reverse Ralph Macchio. I'm not genetically blessed either haha, just like my brother I'm balding and it started in my early 20's. Still, my main complaint is that it's just really different to what we're used to. So while it's something I'm surprised by it (and a little disappointed because I wanted to see how they'd update Frank's original appearance), I'll probably get over it once I've gotten used to it.
@@VaughanDavies aye man I agree tbh I would of preferred a reimagining in the same style as the REmakes something different enough to be considered a new experience so it doesn't try to over shadow the original. Something a little darker in town where the humor comes from franks inexperience in the situation I would of preferred frank to look a little different perhaps earlier 30s late 20s with a look closer to the original but with a smaller nose something different yet familiar I know they picked the beta versions of frank to base this off but I would of preferred something actually different but instead we got a more or less one to one remake like the destroy all humans remakes which I'm not going to complain about I love these games and I'll most definitely have fun with it despite not liking some of the decisions made for this game. I hope the game does well enough for them to bring the series back and remake the second one with off the record as a bonus and they pay attention to the changes people disliked from this one and avoid it in the next. My biggest fear is that it bombs and they bury dead rising for good and they're never get a chance to fix those mistakes because people never game them a chance to fix it because people are so protective of the things they love. Because they break down walls just to pass through the door.
@@christophermcavoy1790 I get that, my biggest personal fear is that they repeat the same mistake of ignoring what the fans want (DR4) in order to make a game made for everyone, which ends up appealing to very few. They need to listen to feedback and take a serious look at what made the first game so brilliant. They need to stop trying to modernise the games and start playing to their unique yet janky self.
@@VaughanDavies I had that fear when the teaser was released it was so over the top and silly I sighed so hard dead rising becoming the saints row 4 of zombie games but I opened my mind when I seen more of the game
@@christophermcavoy1790 yeah just gotta hope they go the Yakuza and OG Dead Rising route of silly things in a serious world. Silly stuff in a silly world is far less funny than the alternative. Dead Rising 4 proved that to be true.
If a person is gonna have the general attitude of “going to be disappointed in September,” there is nothing the game can do to win you over. All I want l, at best, is some modernized controls. It would be nice being able to more easily use skill moves effectively. It would be nice having the roll not linked to a double bump and be a click. But if you’re gonna sit there saying you’re gonna be disappointed, spoiler alert, you’ll be disappointed. I’ll be having fun in September, because I don’t need to have whatever it is people with your mindset need to have in order to experience any kind of joy.
@@BorderlineEnlightenment so I said in the video that I'm worried I'm going to be disappointed, not that I will be disappointed. In the video I'm talking about my concerns and why certain things have disappointed me based off of the information we have. I still have the game pre-ordered, and I said in the video that I plan on making a series on it,as well as saying I hope I have fun and enjoy the game. I'm not saying nobody should enjoy it or experience it, I'm just saying I have a couple issues with the game that are disappointing as a fan of the original. But I'm still going to play it. I'm just hoping I enjoy it despite my concerns and the few things I'm worried about.
@@VaughanDaviesThat’s a pretty semantic response. I didn’t say I was going to be disappointed, I’m worried I’m going to be disappointed. Come on dude, have enough awareness to realize that difference is only in your mind.
@@BorderlineEnlightenment I don't see the issue with it. Logically speaking, maybe I'm just being slow, but I stand by it. I won't know how I feel until I play the game. There will be things that'll disappoint me, but I'm hopeful that once I've completed the game once or twice, I'll be able to say if I enjoyed it as much as the original or not. If I don't enjoy it as much as the original, I'll be disappointed. If I have just as much fun, I'll be happy with it. If I have more fun than the original, I'll be elated. I'll find out in September, and since I play on recording my playthrough, my experience and how I feel about the remake will be recorded as it happens.
Where is Franks caution state? U know when hes next to a bunch of zombies and running hes constantly looking aware of his surroundings and hunched over. I know its a small thing but frank just looks now like hes constantly constipated.
@@K9_3080 I never noticed but they could have had him straighten his stance to look more imposing, but I didn't notice. If you're right, then yeah it sucks that its different.

But I cut it because it didn't flow properly and sounded unnatural when I recorded It. It just didn't fit and I was being lazy, not wanting to re-record an ad-libbed tangent. Next time, I make a video like this, I'm just gonna pause and add the line. I was way too concerned about keeping the video under 15 minutes that I didn't bother adding more lines to the script. So, what I ad-libbed was pretty much this, "oh yeah, and I saw footage of the underground tunnels and it looks worse than the original. It feels like there's less zombies than the original and the pop-in looks terrible" and then it didn't flow nicely until whatever the next part was. It clashed so I cut it, which I should have just adjusted the script to make it sound better. I noticed the FPS drops and I gave them a pass because it's an early build, but if the game releases with performance issues, all of us will complain. So I'm hoping they fix that shit as they should. Mods will fix a lot of shit I suspect, and while I'm getting the game on Xbox, I will get the game on PC a few years down the line for mods (if everything works out that way.)
[I'm hoping that Capcom learns from this in a positive way. They haven't been doing so hot in recent years when it comes to that in some key areas (very predatory with microtransactions) but maybe the company needs a kick in the pants and start treating all their titles with care. Dead Rising and its fans deserved that, especially after the tragedy that was Dead Rising 4... God, that game was just... awful.]
Once again, haha I fully agree. I was extremely disappointed by Dead Rising 4, that game is just terrible all around, also you made a pointless earlier in your message about the DLC of the remake costing more than the original's DLC outfits cost. I fully agree. It's bullshit. I hope Capcom cools it with the microtransactions and starts treating their games with more care, but unless being greedy twats begins to be the actual cause of what damages their profits, and not just the games being broken or shit, then I doubt they'll do that. All these big companies are going to shit. They're greedy as fuck, and the guys at the top are hogging all the bonuses and money from their employees, because they don't care about the games, gaming or the fans. They're just money guzzling parasites. Dead Rising fans deserve better, and I personally don't trust Capcom to get it right. I like Capcom, but they make it very hard to like them with the bullshit they pull sometimes. Same as all the big developers. Even SEGA pisses me off, and I ADORE their Yakuza series. The bullshit with locking New-Game+ behind a paywall was extremely shitty and I hope the backlash made them reconsider doing it in the future, as that 100% hurt the games sales and the series reputation, which will no doubt, anger the brilliant folks at Ryu Ga Gotoku Studios.
The original producer of this game is overseeing this remake.
@@Dopamiin3 That's good, I'm just hoping some of the stuff I mentioned in the video such as the game being reported as "too easy" isn't the case, and it's just due to the fact, the game is not fully released yet.
"I care about actually censorship. Not... bullshit." Mate, what you are referring to as bullshit and not real censorship has literally been one of the prime examples of censorship in modern history.
@@brandonmcgregor9912 or I'm just not fussed about virtual tits or getting XP rewards for taking panty-shots. I have no problem with them being in the game, but them being cut isn't a massive deal. Is it silly to cut that stuff? Yes. I will criticise that they didn't need to cut those things. But I'm not bothered that they're gone either.
@@VaughanDavies And that's fair enough to not personally care. But even putting the fact aside that some people consider those things contribute to the game's iconic vibe (or just outright opposing the censorship in principle), that doesn't make your dismissal (and it was a dismissal) of such complaints logical.
I was about 12 years old when I played dead rising 1 too and it scared the crap outta me I still find the zombie noises creepy lol
Resident evil 4 also scared the piss outta my 12 year old self lol good times
Edit: Also PP awarded was buffed for the preview version
Yeah Dead Rising had me shitting myself as a kid. Ironically though, I played RE4 a ton on the Nintendo Wii as a kid. Also, I hope you're right about the preview exp. Guess we'll find out in roughly two weeks.
I’ll just continue with the original. Capcon won’t get me this time👍
Well, capcom got me! 😋
Yup got me too lol....just gonna get the standard edition cuz....i really dont care for the extra costumes that cones with the other edition @leoonetto2756
35 bucks for standard edition on instant-gaming im going to buy it 100%
Some changes like the veteran guy I understand cuz it’s a new time and they’d probably get cancelled for stuff like that
Though I will miss the fun bits that the original had
Cancel culture isn't real, and Capcom certainly won't get "cancelled". While I get what you're saying, I think they were too cautious and it ends up feeling unnecessary. At the very least, if they'd just made the change less lazy, I'd be fine with it. But they didn't. They were SUPER lazy with this change.
Dead Rising without difficulty isn't dead rising at all.
Imagine Dark Souls but you had infinite health, Or Sekiro but the game Auto parried for you. What's even the point? "survival horror" means. Nothing anymore.
@@Squintel7 yeah I agree, I really hope it isn't too easy, it'd make my playthrough, and therefore my series, a lot duller
I said it to you in a different comment, but I'll say it here too.
Dead rising was never a survival horror. The only way for it to be a survival horror is if you actively ignore the constant guns, weapons, and healing items the game gives you.
You'd have to ignore how every single plaza has an Uzi hidden in it.
Have to ignore the food court.
Have to ignore the infinite orange juice in the main plaza.
Have to ignore the gun shop, the samurai sword, the boss weapons.
It's a comedy horror. The fact you call it a survival horror just tells me you either A: don't know what a survival horror is, or B; played like an idiot.
@@camharkness Most people play Dead Rising for the first time like a complete moron. They think its just a dumb zombie killing game, but then they get pissed off and whine about how hard it is.
Im 23 and my hairline is worse than franks i also have the same body type so it's nice to get some ugly boy representation i get mistaken for being in my 30s Lowest I've had is 29 so we exist unfortunately
Yeah it's why I gave them the benefit of the doubt in the video with the whole "genetically" unlucky bit where I called him the reverse Ralph Macchio. I'm not genetically blessed either haha, just like my brother I'm balding and it started in my early 20's. Still, my main complaint is that it's just really different to what we're used to. So while it's something I'm surprised by it (and a little disappointed because I wanted to see how they'd update Frank's original appearance), I'll probably get over it once I've gotten used to it.
@@VaughanDavies aye man I agree tbh I would of preferred a reimagining in the same style as the REmakes something different enough to be considered a new experience so it doesn't try to over shadow the original. Something a little darker in town where the humor comes from franks inexperience in the situation I would of preferred frank to look a little different perhaps earlier 30s late 20s with a look closer to the original but with a smaller nose something different yet familiar I know they picked the beta versions of frank to base this off but I would of preferred something actually different but instead we got a more or less one to one remake like the destroy all humans remakes which I'm not going to complain about I love these games and I'll most definitely have fun with it despite not liking some of the decisions made for this game. I hope the game does well enough for them to bring the series back and remake the second one with off the record as a bonus and they pay attention to the changes people disliked from this one and avoid it in the next. My biggest fear is that it bombs and they bury dead rising for good and they're never get a chance to fix those mistakes because people never game them a chance to fix it because people are so protective of the things they love. Because they break down walls just to pass through the door.
@@christophermcavoy1790 I get that, my biggest personal fear is that they repeat the same mistake of ignoring what the fans want (DR4) in order to make a game made for everyone, which ends up appealing to very few. They need to listen to feedback and take a serious look at what made the first game so brilliant. They need to stop trying to modernise the games and start playing to their unique yet janky self.
@@VaughanDavies I had that fear when the teaser was released it was so over the top and silly I sighed so hard dead rising becoming the saints row 4 of zombie games but I opened my mind when I seen more of the game
@@christophermcavoy1790 yeah just gotta hope they go the Yakuza and OG Dead Rising route of silly things in a serious world. Silly stuff in a silly world is far less funny than the alternative. Dead Rising 4 proved that to be true.
There’s change’s are optional
I know some, like the controls are. But I haven't heard about anything else being optional.
how does this have only 500 views and 500 subs? its on a level tkat 1mln subs people make this video is too good for 500 views
@@flegmis5629 I don't think so but I'm flattered you'd say that, thanks for checking out my video!
If a person is gonna have the general attitude of “going to be disappointed in September,” there is nothing the game can do to win you over.
All I want l, at best, is some modernized controls. It would be nice being able to more easily use skill moves effectively. It would be nice having the roll not linked to a double bump and be a click.
But if you’re gonna sit there saying you’re gonna be disappointed, spoiler alert, you’ll be disappointed.
I’ll be having fun in September, because I don’t need to have whatever it is people with your mindset need to have in order to experience any kind of joy.
@@BorderlineEnlightenment so I said in the video that I'm worried I'm going to be disappointed, not that I will be disappointed. In the video I'm talking about my concerns and why certain things have disappointed me based off of the information we have. I still have the game pre-ordered, and I said in the video that I plan on making a series on it,as well as saying I hope I have fun and enjoy the game.
I'm not saying nobody should enjoy it or experience it, I'm just saying I have a couple issues with the game that are disappointing as a fan of the original. But I'm still going to play it. I'm just hoping I enjoy it despite my concerns and the few things I'm worried about.
@@VaughanDaviesThat’s a pretty semantic response. I didn’t say I was going to be disappointed, I’m worried I’m going to be disappointed.
Come on dude, have enough awareness to realize that difference is only in your mind.
@@BorderlineEnlightenment I don't see the issue with it. Logically speaking, maybe I'm just being slow, but I stand by it. I won't know how I feel until I play the game. There will be things that'll disappoint me, but I'm hopeful that once I've completed the game once or twice, I'll be able to say if I enjoyed it as much as the original or not. If I don't enjoy it as much as the original, I'll be disappointed. If I have just as much fun, I'll be happy with it. If I have more fun than the original, I'll be elated. I'll find out in September, and since I play on recording my playthrough, my experience and how I feel about the remake will be recorded as it happens.
@@VaughanDavies There’s no “issue” with it, it’s just a sad way to live. You already have painted it pretty clearly.
@@BorderlineEnlightenment Guess that's just how my brain works
Where is Franks caution state?
U know when hes next to a bunch of zombies and running hes constantly looking aware of his surroundings and hunched over. I know its a small thing but frank just looks now like hes constantly constipated.
@@K9_3080 I never noticed but they could have had him straighten his stance to look more imposing, but I didn't notice. If you're right, then yeah it sucks that its different.
All these remasters just never the games i really want lol Burnout Revenge,Gun,The Darkness,Godfather just too name a few lol
Prototype
this is why im pirating it
@@Echo_YT-t8w can't blame you honestly. I typically pirate games I'm unsure about, and then pay for them if I enjoy them (or when I can afford them). That's what I did with Days Gone.
@@VaughanDavies respect
It's got denuvo so you might be waiting a while
@@CollapseWatch since when has denuvo detered piracy?
@@Echo_YT-t8w plenty of times. Not every denuvo gets cracked
