Dead Rising

I accidentally hyped my friend up about Dead Rising 1 and they bought it on impulse.

They had an awful first hour with it and I feel so terrible. Is Dead Rising only enjoyable to autists and masochists or something?

Everyone's interest is different. Its up for your friend to decide whether or not he likes the game. Just try to give him tips that would make the game a little less of a hassle than already is.

I tried to give some small pointers here and there, but after an hour and a half they said playing the game felt like chewing glass.

I know the game starts out hard and gets easier but I'm questioning whether the game is actually any fun or if I just have some autistic/masochistic/nostalgic fascination with it

what this guy said. dead rising 1 was difficult to get into my first playthrough because i was unfamiliar with the gameplay and the mechanics but after starting a second playthrough midway (missed a story mission) i had a general understanding of what the game wanted from me and had a mental layout of where all the good items and weapons were in addition to being lvl 20~.

just tell them to keep on top of story missions for playthrough 1 and memorize where all the powerful weapons are. that's my advice.

The 'fun part' of the game is getting gud, learning the mall and what weapons are good, and where to find them. But yeah, the moment to moment is kind of bleh.

>Start a game
>Cheesy dark atmosphere
>Zombies let loose in a mall
>Able to pick up anything you see as an item
If they don't know how to have fun in Dead Rising 1 than there is no saving your friend.

Tell them to not care about survivors

OCD shitters who must do everything in one playthrough will not like it.

Same for people who don't like to explore.

It's also admittedly rough around the edges.

The game is great
But unlike most games that release these days it requires the player to learn how to play the game.
Some people only like games if they play exactly like every other game they played.

I wasted $60 and a few hours of my stupid life playing Dark Souls 3 - a game I can't play for the life of me - and at no point did I resent my friends nor did they feel bad that I paid money for something I hated

That being said tell him to git gud

They have been disregarding survivors but I'm not sure that's a good idea as its a great source of PP and level 1 Frank is no fun at all.

What are some non-annoying ways to level up at the start? PP sticker hunting?

Just get them to join for the join bonus and let them die.

I do feel like they weren't exploring enough. I had to constantly nudge them to explore the second floor of paradise plaza (for the OJ, Katana, and skateboards, they still haven't found the katana)

Ah yeah, that's right. Good.

I just really want my friend to enjoy one of my favorite games and not suffer.

They're not complaining about the normal things people bitch about like time limits and the way the game is meant to be replayed, but they just seem to be hitting their head against the difficult first hours.

for some people it really can feel like you're walking on a bed of nails for an hour or two before it clicks. it's probably not like much of anything your friend has ever played before and they just need to learn how the game works, which is the largest difficulty curve/stumbling block for dead rising in general. it takes a little bit to learn it -- surely your friend has found some things getting easier in that hour and a half played?

They're still in the process of learning which weapons are good to carry around and all that, so yeah. But they quit last night when they ended up in the bathroom of north plaza at night with one block of health and a pistol with tree bullets

>they they they
Why do you just come out and say They're a tranny or even worse a grill

I want to like the dead rising games but I find the combat so shitty it feels impossible to have any fun. Like on paper it looks like a beat em up that's zombie themed with escort missions. But I really couldn't get into it. I gave it a second try with DR2 and felt the same.

The classic RE games have shit combat but are still fantastic games due to everything surrounding the combat

Who is best Dead Rising girl?

You just posted her.

That I can understand though since combat isn't the prime focus for RE. You get spooky exploration and puzzle solving and shit. And when you need to you gotta lay out some zombies. DR though, I feel like its one of capcoms weakest series considering their games are usually fun as fuck to play.

Looks like you already know

This. It's getting annoying,

>I feel like its one of capcoms weakest series considering their games are usually fun as fuck to play.

Well, the Canadians did try to inject some fun into combat with combo weapons, but ended up gradually destroying the series in the process, so.

I thought there might be some Isabella folks out there

Your friend is a faggot who needs to get some taste.

I just like using they, grow some thicker skin.

>PC gayming
hehahahhahahahahahhehehehe
PC pleb should've got a console and you wouldn't have that issue.

Get a PS4 instead you fucking PCunt.

>those jaggies
how can you deal with that

>Devs silent
They've already given a fix on the forums, and there's a second patch on the way.

>that quiet, empty mall full of dead zombies
Something about the vibe of DR1 was never pulled off in any of the sequels and it's a damn shame.

It seems like the series is going full steam towards Saints Row's tone.

Am I asking too much that I wish this game had a run button? Seems really out of place not having one. I like exploring in all, but not at the speed of slow.

whats up with the sudden increase of dead rising threads, i mean i love the fuck outta the game but i want to know why people are talking a bout it again

you dont know what ocd is

>Is anybody around?

no they all went to play dead rising now its just us...alone together
wanna suck each others cocks?

>Hello!

I think you might be on to something. The stressful frustrating shit my friends complain about in this game are exactly the parts I love about it, from the strict time limit to the retarded ai

It got released on pc dummy

He is a dumb casual.

Modern gaymurs are degenerate, his opinion is utterly worthless.

Dead Rising 1 is an objectively good game. If he can't handle the game, he doesn't actually like games. He is probably into Cowadoodie auto-aim self playing movie shit.

It's not hard. Just boring.

It's the "DiRT Showdown" of third-person video games.

It was released on PS4/XB1, and PC like a week ago, along with DR2 and OTR
