Big fan of Dead Rising but a second remake seems completely redundant. Especially since they’ve changed the voice actor of Frank, which absolutely didn’t need changing, and updated the graphics but left the very janky controls intact and the animations exactly the same?
Pointless cash grab. I’ll go back to my copy of the original any time I get the itch rather than reach for this.
From the ewcerpts in the trailer it looks like they’ve only updated the graphics. Too bad because I always thought the controls were shoddy af and ruined the fun
Oh my goodness. Thank you for pointing out the different VA. I knew something felt off, moreso than the new character models.
Also, I can’t help but feel like the updated Frank wandered out of the basement tier of fighters from a Street Fighter title. I feel like he should be chubbier and ruddier. I can’t speak for the direction they took the character in later installments but he always felt like kind of a goober schmuck whose “instincts” finally paid off. I like that characterization, especially in light of the game’s satire of clueless Americans.
I’ll keep an eye on this one. I never did get that achievement for killing the 53,000 zombies in a playthrough…
The original is on steam now if you didn’t already know. I still love the original, I feel like the sequels kind of lost something and I’m a bit afraid this remake might have the same problem. It’s fine either way, the original will always be there, but I would have loved something more in line with the original.
For some graphically-intensive builds or that one map in the swampy area that i cannot for the life of me maintain 40fps, i turn the resolution down in-game (but still fullscreen) and use the deck’s FSR at max sharpness, though this does make text a little hard to read, so i try to avoid it. I can generally get away with tdp limit of 10-12W too.
Nice to see that the Mana series got a pretty decent revival in the past couple of years. I am usually pretty careful when it comes to publishers remaking and / or reviving old series from my childhood, but this time I have to admit that Square Enix did a pretty good job.
