Looks like a round of previews happened with a lot of outlets and streamers getting their hands on the game.

Since I was only able to go through the first section of the game, I do still have some questions about how well the remaining hours at the mall have been balanced. Even so, my time with Dead Rising Deluxe Remaster showed me that Capcom has made the right choices in preserving the things that made the experience so unique, while still modernizing it and updating it appropriately. Everything I played felt like a mostly healthy balance, and it's one I'm looking forward to continuing very soon.

Heavily reworked visuals impress in the Dead Rising Deluxe Remaster, with a few crucial quality of life features as well.

While I was upset that I could not play the entirety of 72-Hour mode, my time with Dead Rising Deluxe Remaster gave me all the information needed to feel confident that Capcom just might have knocked this more-than-a-remaster, not-quite-a-remake right out of the park. I am especially eager to see the changes, if any, made to Overtime and Infinity Mode and I look forward to playing the final build when Dead Rising Deluxe Remaster releases to digital storefronts on September 19. If you'd like a physical copy, you'll have to wait until November 8.

Dead Rising Deluxe Remaster Looks Better and Plays Better Than Ever - IGN

In our hands-on preview for Dead Rising Deluxe Remaster, we played the early parts of 72-hour mode and quickly saw how much quality-of-life improvements have been made to this remaster of a beloved zombie game.

While my preview time was limited, I'm looking forward to September 19 with bated breath. It was a joy to revisit one of my favorite games from another era, and this remaster looks to deliver an authentic reimagining of one of the greatest 360 library titles.

Not necessarily a deal breaker but… jeez I figured the original game out when I was 11 years old.

Yes. This game is not for you.

Came here for this same reason lol....looks like im out too

 

[SCB3]

is the time limit still in the game? if so im out

Tbf thats a big part of Dead Rising's gameplay loop

I cannot decide if I want to bother with this, I played the PS4 re-release last year and it may have been too close to this, also if the Achievements/rewards are the same, I really don't feel like doing Zombie Genocider and 7 Day Survivor ever again

Well in original game part of its core gameplay, of course they not gonna take that out.

 

[Werewolf Jones]

They made Dead Rising accessible for normies. Damn.

 

[Moses85]

DRR knocking on the door…

 

[TwiztidElf]

In a world where rogue likes are accepted now, folks still have a problem with the time limits in DR (A game that is essentially a long playing rogue like)?

 

[simpatico]

Game reviewers created the demand for this.

 

[simpatico]

Check out the scale on those steps. They're massive!

 

[VAVA Mk2]

They need to remake or reboot the series.

Should be optional.

 

[Danjin44]

Should be optional.

In the first game thats big part of core gameplay loop.

 

[Isa]

No Eropoints, no buy Capcom.

 

[Generic]

The sequels added a sandbox mode with no time limit.

 

[Danjin44]

The sequels added a sandbox mode with no time limit.

Yes and speaking honestly Dead Rising got worst and worst after the first game, because it tried too hard to appeal "mass audience".

Apparently they rewrote Cliff, the Vietnam War veteran psychopath.

In the original before the fight he would say:
"You can't tell me, can ya fella? Oh yeah, I know why. It's because you're Vietcong. You're nothing but a filthy communist!"

Now instead he says:
"You can't tell me, can ya fella? Oh yeah, I know why. It's because you're a mole. You're nothing but a filthy animal!"

Also, since they removed erotica points, now Kent shows the player a "funny" picture instead of a "sexy" picture.

None of these are deal breakers for me but these are dumb changes imo

The communist line being rewritten actually triggers me. See no point in doing it. It's a funny veteran trope.

well it was hated back then too i remember it vividly

Well it's a game made for "modern audiences" meaning it's for retarded cucks who have panic attacks at the sight of cleavage so the handholding fits right in.

 

[Barakov]

The hits keep coming.

lol, even fucking commies are off limits now, huh? What a farce.

 

[rkofan87]

i wonder how they cucked the edgeworth remasters?

 

[calistan]

Damn, I was really looking forward to this. I'd love to play Dead Rising with improved graphics and better controls, but this is totally off my radar now. Starting a playthrough of the 2016 version instead.

 

[Skifi28]

Meh, thank god the original was remastered and is still available.

 

[Jack Videogames]

It looks... weird. Frank looks awkward and stocky and moves like a shortsighted man looking for his towel on the beach. And the mall doesn't look super different. I understand not even RE Engine can work miracles in a game where there are dozens of characters in the same place at the same time, but I was expecting something prettier.

 

[tommib]

Why are they calling this a remaster when it's clearly a remake? Can't believe even devs get confused with the terminology here.

 

[P:axMagellanic]

New voices are dogshit and Frank looks deformed.

 

[Schmendrick]

No eropoints, raceswapped villains.......yeah, hard pass.
It´s not even that I`d have overly noticed that in-game, it`s just that I absolutely refuse to support the mindset that drove these changes with my money.

 

[Goalus]

Won't buy this even at a massively reduced price.

 

[RagnarokIV]

Capcom USA got their fingers in this one, I'll pass.

Should be optional.

Thankfully, reading takes like this are also optional.

More Censorship Confirmed For 'Dead Rising Deluxe Remaster' As Capcom Removes Anti-Communist Dialogue Line From Cliff Hudson Boss Fight

Capcom has removed Cliff Hudson's anti-communist sentiments from their upcoming 'Dead Rising Deluxe Remaster'.

[SJRB]

Okay so a Chinese retard is off limits but a white autist is perfectly fine?

 

[Nickolaidas]

I'm honestly surprised they kept the fat, crazy, ugly lesbian as is.

Then again, female characters are now designed like this, so they probably decided they shouldn't bother.

 

[TVexperto]

i just found out they wont release it in germany because its too gory? dafukk

 

[Sethbacca]

Okay so a Chinese retard is off limits but a white autist is perfectly fine?

They were apparently looking to specifically trigger only the people that would be upset by "game censorship".

 

[Kings Field]

It was worth the 10 minute conversation with Sony customer support to cancel the preorder.

We've crossed the satire threshold.

Holy shit, lol. Yeah, this game is completely sanitizing itself for no reason other than to appease the easily offended. The removal of "communist" sounds weirdly suspicious.

EDIT: apparently, that line may be contextual.

that tell you how braindead kids are today, they have the attention span of a gold fish, I see it all the time with my 17yo: he's playing something and pauses constantly to look at the phone and forgets what he was doing or where he was going...
