Dead Rising Deluxe Remaster
Disclaimer-the pictures used belong to Capcom's Dead Rising series. I am using said images as examples to illustrate my opinions
I'm delighted to see one of my all time favourite games coming back! It looks like they did an excellent job! They seem to have fixed issues that frustrated me in the original like the survivors blocking each other from getting up onto that ledge near the safe room vent and screwing up my time for completing the other cases. If there is any time left in development before release (even post release) I hope they will change a few things.
Firstly, I'd love the option to switch between the new voice actor for Frank and the original T.J. Rotolo. It will be exciting to see what the new voice actor will bring to the table; his take on the character should be given a chance. I can't form a full opinion on the new voice yet based off the few lines in the trailer. It seems to have a playful tone and great delivery from what I listened to. However, there should be the option to choose between the new and original in my opinion, and I don't mean the reuse of audio from the original, I mean bringing the original voice actor back to redo the lines for the remaster.
T.J. Rotolo's version of Frank West will never not scream badass to me. His voice is distinct; it's a key part of keeping the charm of the original character and game intact for this remaster since Frank is the main man. I would genuinely spend another 30 to 50 euro more on top of the games current pre order price if they would bring T.J. back to redo his lines. Once again, having the option to change between the new and the original Frank voice would be awesome. I say this as I fear this choice to replace the main character's original actors will carry over should they choose to remaster Dead rising 2. What if Peter Flemming will no longer voice Chuck Greene?
As for the audio/soundtrack, I hope they include that most recent version of "Justified" By Sean Lacefield. Drea's incredible vocals wouldn't go astray either! I can't listen to it and not visualise the concept art of Isabella holding onto Frank amongst the horror. Badass. I rocked out to that tune during my teens. It's a gorgeous song and the series would not be the same without it.
No your honour, I didn't simultaneously rock out to "Justified" and write a whole assignment on why Frank is one of the best characters in all of gaming during my college days.😂
Am I a game design or voice acting expert? no, just someone that loves the games and the characters. That being said, others seem to share my opinion on including T.J.'s version of Frank's voice so I'm not alone in thinking this. It takes something away without him there. This is a beloved game; I'm allowed to be sentimental and worry about a repeat of mishandling of Frank's character like Hank East. This game and it's characters are iconic and should be handled carefully.
See below for Frank's reaction to my ranting ;-;
My second point is more time should be devoted to Frank's design. Brad and Jessie are polished but faithful to their original designs. Frank's hair line should be brought down slightly. Just enough so that he mirrors the Frank we know from the original.
My main argument for this is because he looks like his older self from later in the timeline, that being off the record and or case west and he's not that age yet. The receded hairline and wrinkles shows time has passed and creates a sense of progression for Frank's character -older and battle hardened. Case west era Frank's still kicking it and fighting for survival with the parasite/infection in him daily all these years later. Dead rising one's Frank just isn't there yet. So to reiterate, it's too soon in the timeline to age him up. I think Frank is slightly cartoonish in relation to the other main characters e.g Brad, Jessie etc. Frank's remaster model has intricate detail and looks amazing, no doubt about that. The design just needs to be tweaked a little as it strays a bit too much from the original in my opinion. I just don't feel he looks like THE Frank West. If you compare Frank face to that of the other characters, he feels a little out of place with the overly exaggerated hairline. One thing I love about Frank is that he's not your typical poster boy, not toned, idealistic, young etc. The original Frank was that nice balance between the two and looked like your average guy.
am I discrediting the amazing work they have done on this remaster? absolutely not, I'm just keen on Frank feeling like he's actually Frank West in this remaster of the game.

We all agree this is the worst mission in video game history, right? Okay, maybe that's being a bit overdramatic but it sure as hell felt that way the first time I went through it. (And repeated run-throughs have not made me enjoy it any more)
You just run into Isabella Keyes and the answers to the biggest mysteries in this game and the entire franchise and dangled in front of you. In order to get those answers, you have to run all the way across town without all the weapons you accumulated at this point. Then as you are about to re-enter to open world of Los Perdidos, the door is literally slammed shut.
You're then forced to go on a fetch-quest for random items to fix a random item to open the door randomly shut by some random guy for some random reason. At least in Super Mario Brothers 3 they didn't make you go back through the level you just finished so you could move on to look for your princess in another castle.
On top of the busy work, I think the biggest gripe I have is who's behind it. If it were General Hemlock or Marian Mallon or even someone who gets named, I might understand it. But I guess it's a random member of the Kings of Chaos who have long been relegated to faceless antagonists by this stage of the game. We haven't heard from any of them since killing their leader and, after this unnecessary roadblock, we never hear from them again.
I bit my tongue until the "Chaos Rising" DLC featuring the gang came out to make sure that there wasn't some other story explanation but clearly there is none other than the developers wanting to waste 10 minutes of our time,
Shame on you, Capcom Vancouver! Shame on you!
"NBA Action: Faaaaaaan-tastic" as Frank West would say. In honor of this weekend's NBA All Star game, I thought I would give some Dead Rising stars the logo treatment.
Heard some news about Isabella and Chuck returning for DR3. Any thoughts?
They have to, right? I’ll get into this more later but it wouldn’t surprise me if we heard a little about Isabella in the game and maybe get some Chuck & Frank in the DLC, assuming there is one.
Thanks for reading!
