All the Dead Rising youtubers were sucking this off when it came out, sad.
Everyone knew it was going to be bad because they haven't made a good Dead Rising game since the very thing they were trying to remake, with every single sequel missing what made it good in some way. Yes that includes 2/OTR.
Lo and behold, nearly every single change shows that they don't understand what made it so special and removed clunky things that were part of the charm/soul of it leaving a boring, easy husk.
That's before you get to any woke nonsense.
Censors: expected, except the Viet Cong/commie thing. Is that something that can't even be mentioned? Or just referred to negatively?
Blood: confusing. Did they just go with one or two floor splatter patterns, mop up everything else, and call it good?
Details: can't track all of that because I'm a disgusting phoneposter, but one thing I could forgive there is mirroring lights on a couple of the floors (unless the grocery floor is meant to look soaked). More importantly, how on earth does the game need 32 TIMES MORE MEMORY?
Difficulty: it sounds like the only big problem before was the save/time system. Sad to see the number of "fixes" made that weren't needed. It likely contributed to the other buggy collision problems seen elsewhere.
Voices: I swear, they must have had the actors try to match the pitch and pace of the originals to avoid completely reanimating cutscenes. It's so weird, and would be a very Japanese/autistic thing to be concerned about.
Easy. They're using more 4k, 2k, and 1k textures and higher poly models. That adds up real fucking quick. Don't know for sure, but I'd be surprised if the original used anything higher than 512x512.
For reference, a 512x512 texture takes up ~800kb, 1k is ~3MB, 2k is ~12MB, and 4k is ~48MB.
I guarantee that they wouldn't have a problem with a game where you play as the VC.
Good lord, how did they manage to make this game look worse?!!
God, the purge of gaming just can't come soon enough. Stop raping the dead corpse of our franchises.
