We just want to consume without asking questions, like the damn zombies in the Willamette mall!!!
Who cares about a little bit of censorship???

 

[MMaRsu]

But for real, barely any reviews mentioning the censorship is balls beyond the walls.

Are you wondering what was cut?

Removed Erotica bonus points from photo's (removed the Erotica feature entirely), the Butcher was Asian but now he's a white guy, the Vietnam PTSD veteran has had all references to Vietnam removed, less zombies, Non functioning mirrors. Removed original voice actors..

REMOVED THE NEWS TICKER AT THE BOTTOM

 

[SJRB]

Please ignore the bad things and only talk about the good things, thank you.

The devs worked really hard, have some respect.

 

[Firestartah]

Everyone should just play the initial release on PC. It came much later, so it is patched, but had none of the censorship, I think it came out in 2016 or something like that.

 

[Little Mac]

There’s censorship in Dead Rising?!?!?

Not true. It's based off of a censored European version. Granted I don't remember what all was changed but at the point we're playing one version to avoid changes in another...

I really can't express in any language how much I despise this shit so I'm just going to say "lemon titty fart" and call it a day.

I cancelled my preorder back in August when the censorship news dropped.

You should 100% care about censorship.

 

[Revolutionary]

Also worth mentioning that it has $20 worth of cosmetic DLC on day one

This is all the censorship in case anyone is wondering:

 

[Hohenheim]

I played the OG Xbox 360 version back in the day. Except for the "no points for taking photos up the skirts", what else is censored?
Thankfully I don't have strong urges to take photos of female zombie's cunts.

Less zombies??? Does this mean less zombies on screen or have they cut some zombie models (less variety)?

 

[Skifi28]

Depends, how much you paying me not to talk about it?

 

[Punished Miku]

I'm just fine with the initial release. This has pretty much zero appeal for me.

 

[MMaRsu]

[Superposition]

To any form of censorship:

 

[justiceiro]

Pretty sure nobody is talking about dead rising, period.

 

[Wildebeest]

The funny thing is that they are doing the whole "removing politics from games" thing. They are removing some of the in your face political aspect of the photo journalism that this capturing of "news" inherently has a fetishistic and voyeuristic aspect. They are removing references to how people become obsessed with politics and see everything through a political lens. Likewise, they are removing a political reference to how immigrant labour is used in the industrial meat industry because it is seen as too brutal and dehumanising for "natives".

[adamsapple]

Day 1 gamefly as soon as it gets the physical release in Nov.

 

[Chuck Berry]

Another case where I'll just stick with the original

 

[Kacho]

 

[Ulysses 31]

Some effects in the modern version is baffling this culture warrior(who's very familiar with the OG version)!

 

[DonkeyPunchJr]

wow, just wow. Imagine needing T&A in a video game because you feel so insecure about your manhood. Just go look at porn you dorks.

And didn’t you know that zombies are basically a bunch of harmful stereotypes of African Americans? How can anybody be OK with this kind of racism? Yikes, y’all.

Spoiler

/s in case it wasn’t obvious.

Eurogamer spent 2 or 3 paragraphs on it, talking about it in a triumphant tone.

This is a big deal to these "people".

 

[Z O N E]

This is why you vote with your wallet.

Ever since I chose to vote with my wallet, I have saved SO MUCH money. Feels nice.

Easy skip…. Saved me some money.

Why is it that the old game just looks so much better in these videos? Like compare the colors, and they try to tell me the new one is more "realistic" lighting, is the sun a myth to these people?

 

[DryvBy]

In that thumb, there's less censorship. That chick took her thong off and is going commando!

Nice.

 

[Roman Empire]

This is embarrassing. That explosion looks ripped straight out of PSone.

 

[KaiserBecks]

Damn fun to play though.

 

[GymWolf]

What is offensive about an asian butcher?

 

[buenoblue]

But you made a thread talking about dead rising censorship asking not to talk about dead rising censorship

 

[AJUMP23]

This board is built for complaining.

 

[MMaRsu]

Damn fun to play though.

Sure, as is the original.

 

[ReBurn]

The negativity isn't limited to GAF lol. It's a direct result of the current state of the games industry. Until things improve it's only going to get louder.

Yeah who cares about a little bit of censorship??

Only white guys can be evil/psycho in 2024.

 

[Krathoon]

They keep messing up remasters. It is amazing.

They also took out the kid's speech impediment in the FF9 remaster. I wish someone would fix that.

 

[GymWolf]

I thought asians were basically considered white males in the oppression pyramid, what changed?

You know what, don't aswer, we are already way too political.

Yea, I don't want to go there, but they swapped out the Asian for a White guy, enough said.

[Kacho]

- Make a remaster of a game no one was asking for
- Downgrade it
- Censor it
- Charge a premium price

"Why is everyone complaining, guys?"

 

[Madserb2023]

I don't know why some people find it hard to understand. Censorship is not good. It's not about the particular specific thing that has been censored. It's the principle. Saying that's it's minor or inconsequential is not a rebuttal. No society that has advocated for censorship, not matter how superficial have ended up the good guys.

 

[Krathoon]

They are trying to censor books now too. It is nuts.
