Should We Be Worried About The Dead Rising Deluxe Remaster? 

My expectations for it are as high as Franks hairline

They added stairs to the vent just because of that this game is a 10/10. Also hope they make infinity mode less of a chore 7 day survivor is such a boring challenge.

So glad to finally here someone else mention how great the modding scene will be for this game

This is dead risings last chance, if it fails i think we'll never see another dead rising game

IMO a character's voice actor is the most important part. It's like a fingerprint. TJ is Frank West.

Modders getting ready to make 400 percent expression psycho on Day 1.

Your Leon comment is perfect considering he will be a playable character with the special edition

OK so someone was talking about this the other day about Larry and apparently things are ULTRA Strained between China and Japan at the moment so the guess is Capcom didn't want to rock the boat and that's why they changed Larry.

You and ST1P0 are the dudes whose reactions/opinions I was looking forward to the most. Super hyped for this new release.

I genuinely think they had to change Larry’s look completely because it had to have been impossible to make a 4K model of Larry based on the original that isn’t horribly offensive and racist. Like I was a bit on the fence about how he looks in the original, orange yellow skin and his eyes don’t even open and missing front teeth is basically an early 2000s offensive Asian stereotype lol it probably wouldn’t have been a smart idea to depict Larry that way today especially with the hate crimes against Asians that happened not too long ago. However this new Larry look seems really interesting and as someone said in a Reddit thread that he actually looks like someone who works for the willamette mall butcher shop instead of og Larry who looks like he just kinda wandered in and started cutting meat lol

I think it's going to be good, I just don't think I'm going to play it nearly as much due to the weird character art style change and voice acting.

If they make a movie adaptation of Dead Rising 1, you better make a cameo as Aaron. Also, remake looks lit

I remember during one of your streams when you were talking about why Larry was so great about him being a Chinese immigrant as well as the irony of the entire situation that Carlito found himself in. Glad to see your take on it. It looks like they were trying to make him into your average everyday butcher that you would me at your local butcher shop lol Also he looks a lot like AL from Toy Story 2. 😂

Things I don't like: Franks new model looks weird The trailer putting a weird humorous spin on this game (This game is DARK when you pay attention to it, and putting a jazzy tune feels out of place tonally) No TJ, TJ doesn't make or break it, however he made Frank West feel like an average guy. This new VA seems a bit hammy for a "Journalist who is thrown into a terrifying situation and told to survive". Things I like: Literally everything else

Remastered Jeff 👆👆👆👆👆👆👆> Dead rising remaster

Unless they secretly plan on delisting the original then theres no need to worry

Frank looks awful and they replaced my favorite Asian butcher >:(

I just noticed that during the bit where Frank is punching, they added the green hawaiian thug zombie, who only made an appearance on the cover of the original. Hopefully, this means that we'll get more cut content?

OG frank look locked behind preorder is scummy, but im cautiously optimistic despite no TJ

Ecdycis, where do you think capcom will take the direction of the series after this release?

I'm excited, admittedly might be a bit of a rose tinted lens situation from DR1 literally being my first game I ever played. One thing I'm kinda surprised you didn't mention is the fact Frank was on the bike in Paradise Plaza. I'm not too into breaking the game or extremely niche features, but I don't recall that being a thing in the original. You think it's a demo thing or do you think we might have a new vehicle spawn or two?

Do you think they will still have the glitches or will they use this chance to squash those bugs? I love some of the glitches you've used in your challenge runs. I had no idea about the bicycle trick.

Also, did they already say something about combining weapons? I know it wasn't a thing in the original but still it's a big thing in the Franchise

I’m worried about if the damn skateboard gonna let me do a kick flip

Tbh I'm a little bit worried. I loved DR 1 because Frank was such a cool guy .. the voice and looks in the original fitted him perfectly in my opinion. Now he looks like shit and the voice just doesn't come of as cool as in the original .. of course gameplay (hopefully) will be great but a big part of the likeability of the original came from Frank. Still I hope this game does well because I just love the franchise. Even bought the xbox one instead the ps4 back then just because of Dead Rising 3

They add stairs to the vent, great job, but they need to add new "brain" for survivors AI too, they said will improve the Survivor AI

Any plans on doing a speedrun of the new deluxe mod for clock tower?

I hope this succeeds so we get a Dead Rising 2 remake 😭😭

I usually don't pre-order, but I love this series so much and I want it to continue. I would especially love a deluxe remaster of Dead Rising 2, that would hopefully include the Case Zero and Case West scenarios. And I would love a deluxe remaster of Dead Rising 3 as well, especially since 30 fps games hurt my eyes. And they should do a proper sequel to DR3, that continues the story of Isabela's villain arc.

I love the new frank: He looks even more like Dan Akroyd trying to do a photography gig alongside selling Crystal Skull Vodka

Frank looks closer to death. What war did he cover ww2?

Don’t they also have zombies from the beta in this version?

Can't wait to spit brock to death in glorious 4K, but i bet they made him much easier in the remaster.

I didn't know about Frank West until Tatsunoko vs Capcom came out.

This is a dream come true, it looks amazing! Can't wait to see you run this lol!

I think frank looks like a caricature of bill murray

Do you think the game would be better or worse with a seamless mall? Every weapon only spawning once

I hope that it has a more casual mode like DR3 and 4, I'm a lot older now than when DR first came out and don't have the time these days to grind it out.

This is driving me insane. Why is nobody noticing that the new camera is too low and way too close to Frank, compared to the original DR? People are noticing all the little details, but they're completely blind to an evident major issue that plagued the series since the "canadian" sequel! Maybe they're doing it to better show off the new graphics, who knows - but in a game that's all about navigating hordes and planning your route, it's a terrible mistake. The primary reason no sequel felt like DR was the camera, it's as simple as that.

What if this is actually a Dino Crisis reboot and they're going to reveal that later on?

What the fuck did they do to Larry?

My expectations are low, like RE3make low. I see performance issues incoming especially with capcom on insisting on using denuvo. The one clear improvement is the ramp to avoid survivors getting stuck at the vent. I want to know how it will play because it looks like it’ll play similarly to dr3 and not DR1’s gameplay. The loss of the Ritolo will likely mean most will want a mod to AI voice him. I’m unsure if they will use other voices since they were very limited on this reveal. I hope the gameplay is solid but I’m not going to preorder and I hope they don’t delist the original. The other hope is that they don’t go out of their way to prevent mods since capcom is really against mods right now.

my boys channel will blow up with this masterpiece of a game. cant wait for all the new speedruns coming

I have to pre order to get a chuck green skin which depresses me

I'm just hoping they did a complete overhaul of the Survivor AI. Please Capcom....

One of the few upcoming games I'm looking forward to with complete confidence. Can't wait to see you play it!

Overall promising, but I feel like the lighting could use improvement in some scenes. The scene showing Kent seemed oddly dark, but it could've just been the video. The scene showing the new Larry also felt a bit brighter than I feel it should've, the OG game had that area feeling a bit darker and dingier, adding to the feel of being in some underground greasy meat kitchen.

I don't understand why they gave frank and Isabella premature grey hair XD. Like why did they age those two by like 20 years. They went from black hair to straight up grey

If it’s not only good but sells incredibly well, we will see a full resurgence of this series, I want to see dr 2 get the same treatment and maybe pull a re4 remake separate ways for the case west where you play as frank instead of chuck, and add case zero to the base game, I think that alone would make it so much more worth it! Wonder how they’ll handle infinity mode in this remake, maybe this time you can save and fast forward instead of waiting tediously for 14 hours

Your talking points are good. Everything you said makes me want to subscribe. But that fucking twitch sub sounds... holy fuck

How did Frank get the motorcycle in paradise plaza?

Can’t wait for the speedruns on this version

My main issue right now is that the PC version has denuvo

Its actually ridiculous how nostalgic the mall music is. CAPCOM are legends for this remaster

The downside was the VA of Frank West in this deluxe remaster was not the same original VA of Frank West in the original classic DR1, and it looks like they changed the Chinese butcher villain into a white/American butcher in this deluxe remaster. plus the original Frank West DR1 classic look design with just high rendered graphics was just a skin and only available for pre order, the supposed design of Frank West like in the original was not suppose to be a skin but his default looks imo, not this new design with so much high hairline, Frank looks 10 times older in his new look design in this dead rising deluxe remaster.. But still looking forward for some of this game reviews before buying it though. (Not you IGN😝)

Dead Rising is a Top 5 game for me. Now with the new quality of life improvements ( Like moving while aiming ) this game will easily be an all time favorite. A lot of thing changing but sometimes change is good right? Counting down the days for this game and looking forward to platinum it also.

It's the year of Ecdycis.

Can you beat Dead Rising all bosses using only survivors to deal damage against psycopaths?

People think it's the last chance but really Deadrising is Capcom's 5th-6th most successful game. We will see 2 eventually flop or not. (I will say I'm not even skeptical, Capcom has done a great job at remasters and showing gameplay before release instead of cinematics)

I just recently finished a run for the saint achievement, due to the survivor ai it was difficult to day the least, but i love dead rising, and the original will always have a soft spot in my heart. I hope the bring back the mega man outfit and real blaster. I can't wait to see what DRDR brings!

I hope they made the days a little short like one real hour

4:08 It's Walter White where if instead of throwing the pizza on the roof, he ate the entire thing (and then his family)

can we JUUUUUUUUUST enjoy the game when it comes out please

11:32 he killed 100 zombies and got 3k pp I hope they didn’t up the pp a lot cuz I always liked that it kinda wants u to play again to get max level

My hopes and wishes: 1) survivor AI is updated 2) they add multiplayer (not likely but still hopeful) 3) they add the option to save/pause in infinity mode 4) they add dr2 markers and indicators for survivor proximity to transitions

Should have done this with dead rising 1-2 into a bundle and you would have had guarantee sales regardless of peoples hesitation

cannot wait!!

I hope a sandbox mode like off the record will be in the game.

The ONLY thing I'm really hoping for is some new modes. Randomizer, less time, harder zombies, etc. Just give me something new, please.

I really hope this is good, I really hope it is. Cuz’ if it’s not, then this folks, this is to be the final nail in the coffin of Dead Rising. It was already bad enough with Dead Rising 4, but if this were to be bad, this will be the last we’ll ever see from or ever hear from Dead Rising again.

Wish they at least had brought back the original voice actor that played Frank West TJ Rotolo.

I'm very excited, but Frank's voice change does hurt. He also looks different and much older. I wouldn't say "ugly" lmao, just a middle-aged guy! He looks good! I get what they're going for. It makes sense and it's good, but yeah, it's just so different! I hope they don't try to make the game goofier than it originally was, cause it kinda felt that way initially in the trailer. DR1 is pretty dark, serious and atmospheric too. But I'm sure they'll keep it authentic. After all, the music seems to be the same too. Also, wow it's gonna be voiced in so many languages! That's super cool!

Mods will be WILD for this release. Big hopes for DR2:OTR in the future.

Oh hell yeah, Frank got hit with the dilf-ify stick. Am stoked as hell for this game, ngl

RE2make Ada was recast for RE4make cause she was a union voice actor 29:06

I would like my expectations to be set high, knowing how sequels worked out in the series I will keep it low for now

Bar went low when I saw how they changed Larry and Jessica. Also Lifeseeker posted message this week claiming he wasnt contacted at all for this game, even his label production aint aware they will use his song. Same goes for Hostile Groovey as they are also out of the loop. Just hope they keep the combat as it was with its reward by knowing where to look and which items are good, while keeping the bosses like Adam or Cletus challenging.

Honestly I'd prefer Franks DR4 voice than this

frank looks like a goblin. then again, new VA go along with this look

Man cant wait for ecdycis to speedrun dead rising and dead rising dr at the same time

its drm how are people supposed to mod

I can't wait for a true Jeff rising mod.

If the mods are anything like the resident evil games with the RE engine We are not prepared to see every character's "meat"

Hopefully we got a sandbox mode like in Off the record

On a scale of we're not back to we're back, we are *so* back

Fingers crossed this hits hard and it leads to capcom giving us another new game

It looks really good so far I think it’s gone be good

Just concerned about things like Larry and Cheryl. Larry I kinda get the swap as it's American about to grind up Carlito so it's irony but Cheryl I worry about erotica pp being removed. Hopefully its not censorship and just design changes.

I think it’s cool for people who didn’t play the original or people who don’t take games so seriously. I think there’s a subsection of gamers who either are really against modern changes to games or are just so into dead rising that they aren’t going to like this regardless and honestly they may as well just skip buying it. I think it’s going to be fun and it’s a decent price. I’m expecting it to be nostalgia and not close to perfect and think it will meet that.

My only worry is TJ not being there

Looking forward to it! Capcom on a roll this year

They changed the babyface butcher being Asian with the supermarket guy being Asian instead in this remake.

I'm honestly fucking hyped about this coming out! I love Dead Rising!

I don't mind the change with the butcher. The white guy makes more sense if he works for Sean.

Nothing can be perceived to be even slightly racist in the year 2024

It doesn't look like they put a ton of effort into it, but it'll probably still be the best way to play the game. This game was one of reasons why I bought a 360 back in the day.

I wish they would have made the inventory system and health system the same way they had it in Deadrising 4🤦💯

13:53 as a fellow man of culture, I will also be playing dead rising.

We need Jeff Rising Deluxe Remaster now 😅

Honestly should’ve kept the original voice clips lol
