Don't forget the stereotypical pajeet who calls Isabela a whore from Case West! That would NEVER fly in a Canadian Current Year™ game.
That was the funniest shit, his theme was pretty good too.
Yeah, there was too much sovl in DR2 to ever properly remake, especially with how hard they dropped the ball on remaking DR1. It ain't happening, and even if it would, it will be just as soulless as every single capcom demake, just look at what they turned RE4 into.
 
Infinity mode should have just been turned into a sandbox mode like in Off the Record. It always sucked ass.
There's a cheat book you can get that essentially does that apparently. Unrelated but this game was predominantly made by a chink studio Neoboards so idk why the Capcom ballwashers are out in full force today jumping all over the guy who's been repeating the same takes from weeks ago. This was not made exclusively by Japs if that happened it would have been more like the REmakes. Nothing about this game is very progressive for the franchise and it is a sidegrade at its best. IDK why people feel the need to defend it and screech that its better than 4, because I see it as not much better either when it comes to this series they could have made a new game or successor with the resources. I just don't sperg about it as much as the other guy cause I stopped giving a fuck this franchise had a decent ending for the first few games and 3 games is better than more that just try to repeat the success. Are our standards so dead that a repeat of the first game is now a swing in the right direction? I like innovation, when I imagined a DR remake a long time ago, I IMAGINE exploring Willamete, having extra takes, new story content, new endings, but this is the exact same game just in a new engine which cheapens the experience. They give new voice actors and don't even make use of it lol. New graphical gimmicks like the day night cycle is not new content. The problem with DRDR is you're paying for something those lazy fucks could have (and SHOULD HAVE) fixed with the initial remaster which honestly looks worse than the 360 version, the initial remaster was already washed out and this remake is based on that. They only improved some things in the 2016 remaster, fixed some bugs that were in the 360 version but also had new ones in the porting process that this remake sort of fixed. Its just absurd to me, DR1 is a fine game and didn't warrant a remake like this, if they never released the first remaster I could respect it more. Instead they abandoned the 2016 demaster and then had the gull to bring back the franchise with this, feels forced. I'd have honestly liked them to pull a RE7 with this franchise but that Capcom wasn't the same. This is the safe method of bringing back an IP you dragged through the mud. If you like it, by all means have your fun with the game. Just don't be like /v/ and have such pissing contests. This is DEAD RISING, not RE.

I never liked Infinity Mode even in the original. Sandbox Mode was one of the best additions to the franchise, and I spend about as much time in it as I did in the story mode/coop of OTR. Hell, I was disappointed when DR3 didn't get it(it kinda does since DLC episodes have no time limit), but to not even put it as an option in DRR when you complete the game? Shows how little of a shit everybody involved gave about it. Infinity Mode changes are a good step in the right direction, but not enough when we've seen better a decade ago.
There's a cheat book you can get that essentially does that apparently
Wait, they handled it via a magazine? Why not just another mode? The original let you play just the overtime if you wanted, along with Infinity Mode. Why not add Sandbox on top of that?
Everything about this demake is ass-backwards, I wonder how long it's been in production.

The game isn't that backwards its mostly a lazy rehash at worst. Not rlly a cheat book but I think they should add a Sandbox mode for free since infinity mode and 7 day is trivialized with these. If you get all 50 survivors you get the saint magazine, which gives infinite durability so if you are really good at og DR this game will be a cakewalk of course you can choose not to use them but most of these mags were added for a reason, to make it easier. So many people defend unnecessary things in games when they're optional its pretty fun to watch the mental gymnastics. I disagree with you about the sandbox mode, the time limit makes these games pop. I used to fuck around with OTR sandbox on my ps3 but after a while theres just no point when there are better games to fuck around in.

I am watching this video just to confirm.
So, there is no sandbox mode in any shape or form, then? lol, lmao even
These books must be what all this "freedom in choices" that was hyped up to be amounts to. As with everything in this demake, very disappointing, they didn't even add new health items like coffee or soda ffs. No soda in an American Mall but it's full of vegetables instead? C'mon, golden opportunity, literally just rip off models from DR2 or DR3 and call it a day. Very few bits of actual new content by all accounts and you can't even use the excuse that it's trying to be faithful to the original.
BTW add one more thing the demake broke: Throwing weapons, hahahaha. How do you fuck something like this up? Even the new skill book doesn't fix it back, apparently, it's just borked.
 
They didn't really advertise the game as being anything new so I won't give them shit for not having new items. I think they could have used more beta stuff though and added to the game to warrant the price tag. New shops like making the gun store owner from chop till you drop a thing, new clothes that aren't dlcs, anything. A money system like 2. But of course you can't please everyone with a remake.

I will because that was one of the very first things I wrote in my Dead Rising Remake design document: Add items from later games that would make sense in Willamette, like for example Coffee(Security Room, Colombian Roastmasters, various restaurants and shops) or Soda(various fast food joints, movie theater, cardboard boxes and trash cans, Food Market). If a nobody like me can think this thru, there is now way a supposed professional studio wouldn't, this was just laziness on their part.
Not like a few +1 health items would ruin the game's meta or anything, you know not like those borderline cheatbooks that were just scattered randomly without a care in locations that the players will get to within their first hour of the game. I'm surprised the devs had some restraint and didn't paint a yellow arrow pointing players to these items.
I might just be old fashioned, but for the price they're asking I do expect some new features and content, not just "better" graphics. Not like this is some obscure game or stuck on a dead console and this is the only way to play it now.
 
One unforgivable sin that I hope whoever added gets Old Yeller'd for is some of the retarded new lines. Game now takes place in current day lol. Yellow paint isn't needed when you have floating prompts that scream in your face where something interactable is, RE7 and onward eventually took it from DR.

The survivor banter is so annoying.
EDIT: deleted my previous comment having finally watched the video. The new books are pretty meh.

Not only has the social media brainrot infested this game, but they turned Sophie into some brain-dead airhead who can only think about going viral when her husband got brained by a convict not even a few minutes ago?
Did the capcucks in this thread already use the excuse of "lore-building" that comes with the survivor dialogue as an excuse yet as to how this game totally isn't worse than DR4?
This also introduces a huge plothole: If the game takes place in the current year and we have smartphones/social media, why the fuck is Frank there? Theoretically, any random retard can just start a stream and put it on their equivalent of youtube or whatever to document the whole thing, Dead Rising 4 played around with the idea of zombie survivor podcasts with Paula and her show(a character I actually re-used as an Otis equivalent for the wider Willamette area in my design draft). Kent is clearly doing some sort of documentary he is planning on getting famous for, that's part of the reason why he sees Frank as competition. Why isn't the outbreak on every news station and being talked about on every website then, le government censorship? SOMEBODY would have gotten the word out, the whole point why Frank got the scoop in DR1 was because he got a heads up from Carlito and there was no way for anybody to contact the outside world from within. This all goes away now.
This line wouldn't make sense in 2006 either. Nobody would prioritize collecting content for their MySpace during an outbreak over their lives back then, especially a grieving widow(?) who just lost her man. This is just stupid all around.
I will take their generic lines over this bullshit any day.
 
I hope the Xenia emulation improves so I can try to fix the game and form a definitive version of 1. Better yet, I may as well work years to reverse engineer it so I can make the game more moddable and give people a chance to make their own once it's all out there. I just can't announce it or make it known. Can't get taken down if its uploaded anonymously and already given to the fans in some form.

the setting story and characters are definitely too hot to cover "for today's audience" like Capcom wants to. Vegas setting? Gambling and too many hot women. Villain? Evil black man with two scantily dressed hotties, that's a no go unless they make him white like "Larry". What about Chuck? White loving father figure, that's not good! Even Phenotrans might be out, we need to trust the science, not expose it for it's lies.
Dont forget the hot asian love interest and the hot redhead love interest, that and the child who's just that, a normal child

Ill give them that the bigger villian in the game is an old white man though

Welcome to 2006 Willamette, North plaza will open in 2007 guys!
 
Should someone tell him how much more freedom this game offers over the original or how mods are gonna fix it? I dunno, it might turn his opinion around!
I don’t agree with some of his opinions, but stop shitting up the thread being assmad over someone having an opinion you don’t agree with.
 
WILL YOU ALL SHUT THE FUCK UP ABOUT GAME BAD/GAME GOOD/BLA BLA RETARD ALREADY? jfc.
This is an online vidya discussion about a new* game that released, OF COURSE NOT! Anyways I hope they go for a DR5 or spinoff like a followup to OFF THE RECORD but as psycho Chuck in a new town this time instead of another remake if they continue the IP.

*not very new this time
