Oh boy I can't wait to buy a extra hour in the day cycle for $0.99.
Capcom makes good games. They have stupid micro transactions that can 100% be ignored. I just think it's juvenile to always do the reddit quality one liners about micro transactions especially when the games are good
Pick one.
They have been on a roll with games the past several years, I am pretty worried about the future/long term with how pozzed things have become in SF6 and DD2.
Also the removal of Male/Female(for body type 1/2) in MH and making the armors the same across genders really showed some bending the knee to this dumb shit.
That being said they have made some great games recently and I have really enjoyed them, still very excited for MH:Wilds as well at this point, fingers crossed things don't accelerate from the woke side of the house.
It always starts small and escalates -- the more people accept the inches given, the easier it is for them to take miles.
I agree, if it does escalate any more I wouldn't consider purchasing the newer games, and Capcom did release a big DEI thing they plan to pursue awhile back for their localizers so I am cautiously monitoring it.
Ideally one of my favorite series doesn't get obliterated by this and it stays small(body type 1/2), but we all know that isn't likely to be the case.
Well shit. I'd better get a better copy of the original while it's still available on the cheap. If they do it in house, great. If the original team is involved, even better.
But so many companies have farmed out their greatest works to people that pretend to know what they're doing, and it always ends up shitty.
So I'm buying a copy that hasn't been played for 4k hours getting scuffed up and whatnot trying to get everything done. Mostly so I can remember how it's supposed to be, instead of what it'll become.
Edit: Seems the going rate is about 10 CAD dollars for a complete copy in good shape. ( https://www.pricecharting.com/game/xbox-360/dead-rising )
Played DR1 for the very first time a couple of years ago. Great game, holds up. Zero need for a remake or remaster. Don't be bilked for adulterated trash with obligatory woke inserts, censorship and Denuvo.
Time to give it the DR4 treatment. Most likely Capcom will miss why it's so charming and will turn it into a super cereal "realistic" game like the RE4 remake
I suspect it will go the other way and embrace the tongue-in-cheek stuff, trying to tap the Fortnite dollars.
Re4 remake looks awesome.
They haven't made a single good Dead Rising since the original. So this is either a last ditch chance to make the franchise worth something, or them attempting to drag the original down to the level of the rest to lower the bar.
Like, there are a huge amount of improvements you could make that would be 100% a net gain. Making the guy not be a fucking tool with his calls. Make it a little harder to get the +Blade books so that mini-chainsaws don't invalidate 99% of the game. Make there be some alternative to the 50k+ zombie kill process besides 3 days of running a car back and forth.
Instead they will remove a lot of the cheese (replaced with quips) and jank (making it soulless and even easier) and call it better. And of course the eroticism shots will be gone.
There are games where you hear this and think, OK great. Maybe it's just me, but this isn't one of those. The constant and tight time crunch, the respawning annoyances (the convicts in the jeep, for one), the awful final boss fight... There's a lot of quality of life to be addressed, if they bother.
