That’s the appeal for me with the new Dead Rising Remaster Sometimes all I want is the same game with updated visuals and some tweaks here and there, doesn’t need to be a brand new game from scratch just give me dead rising lol

It's looking good

I grew up w/ the Tony Hawk games and emu them whenever I wanna SHRED. Also Shrek was in Tony Hawks: Underground 2 after beating the game :) Keep up the challenge runs!

[@mediawatcher9225]

I’m honestly intrigued to see if the same strategies you use to fight the psychos in this version will still work in the remake, we only have a month left but it is something that’s been on my mind

[@Ecdycis]

In theory most should, it depends on how they change the fights.

[@mediawatcher9225]

@@Ecdycis33:23 I did handgun only, it’s not super easy by any means but I’d hardly call it a challenge, even Cletus, Cliff, and Larry weren’t all that hard, the hall family and Paul definitely gave me trouble but that’s mostly due to their movement, it’s just kind of a boring challenge cause you’re using a practical weapon, Jo and Steven were just sad to witness

[@Sogeking79]

With all the effort you have put in recently, I am curious how a real speedrun of this would go.

[@Ecdycis]

Of Dead Rising or with the boards specifically? A lot of my older videos were specifically Dead Rising Speedruns

[@Sogeking79]

@@Ecdycis Of the regular vanilla game. Would any of the new strategies, like with Cletus, help shave your time down?

[@Ecdycis]

From everything there is a single strategy that would be ideal for an actual speedrun. I learned how Sean works

Is a shopping cart only run possible? If you use that mod that you did to put the tvs in your inventory

[@Ecdycis]

I've been thinking about it but lord it'd be awkward

[@TheGhost20978]

Do you think if we get a dead rising 2 deluxe remaster it’ll have everything off the record has and maybe have case zero and case west with it?

[@Ecdycis]

One can hope

[@shinydewott]

Do you think they should or shouldn’t balance the small chainsaw in DRDR? On the one hand it’s really fun to use, incredibly powerful and part of DR history; but on the other hand it’s available really early game and makes the game trivial imo

[@Ecdycis]

It's strong however you also need 3 specific magazines to make it work. Better balancing would likely be not allowing multiple to be held at once

[@shinydewott]

@@Ecdycis i feel like the damage/ease of access ratio being so high makes it just a self-imposed challenge to not use it, no matter how brittle it is without magazines. It still chops through hordes like butter and bosses like… y’know, a chainsaw

[@kazumaeverywhere9867]

love the challenges toy laser sword only would go so hard

[@Ecdycis]

Oh no

[@jessestone7093]

Is it possible to have Zombait always on through a mod or Cheat Engine?

[@Ecdycis]

Honestly it wouldn't be much different

[@Floridaman360]

Completly different but I think for the remaster they should make a dlc and that is for you play as one of the survivors and you play as them trying to get back into life or at a cutscnee

[@Ecdycis]

Jeff Rising

[@xAquaticGamingx]

Should definitely do a skateboard run for deadrising 2 ..the skateboard was really effective in alot of spots definitely gonna give a skateboard strat a go next time i play deadrising

OTR would be ideal because the boards are BEEFY

[@xAquaticGamingx]

@@Ecdycis definitely looking forward if you do try it out for off the record

[@BarkDanez]

With this video you doubt if Frank is a reporter or a skater pro

[@Ecdycis]

He does it all

[@Lightpaladin720]

Man I hope the remake is good, and if they nerfed the mini chainsaw or if it's the same I should play it without using the mini chainsaw

[@Ecdycis]

It should be solid either way

[@DiddlyDoink]

homie really said "that is kinda goofy right?" after an hour of skateboarding zombies and various humans to death, as if only in that moment did anything become nonsense

[@Ecdycis]

I could be wrong on the memory of this video but Goofy means a bit different here. In Skateboarding and Snowboarding there is a regular stance and a "goofy" stance. Goofy tends to be left foot leading while standard is right. I think Frank may be a goofy boarder

[@thecoldduvet7381]

Regular is when your back is facing left and Goofy is where your back is facing right Mongo is when you push with your front foot instead of your back foot and gets alot of flack ( guess who mongo pushes) ahaha

[@DiddlyDoink]

@@Ecdycis you good, I had to go back and see what happened too, it was during the Cletus fight, the game lagged and let him get 2 hits on you, you were calling the game goofy because of it, at least that's what it seemed. But saying Frank may be a goofy boarder made me want to go back and check, seems Frank might actually be regular since that's what he starts as whenever you get on a board, which...is trivia I was missing from my life as a trivia addict

[@solairecopernicus3420]

On an unrelated note, I just realized that Case Zero and Case West are about to become lost media

[@mediawatcher9225]

Nope, they’re backwards compatible so you can still buy them

[@Ecdycis]

You can still acquire them on Series X

[@solairecopernicus3420]

@Ecdycis the 360 store is closing on 7/29. Yes you can still re-download them if you own them, but any new fan won't have a legitimate way to purchase them. Though I guess it's not lost lost if you can still pirate it lol

[@solairecopernicus3420]

@mediawatcher9225 with the 360 store closing today you won't be able to buy them anymore. Although, if you already own them you can still download them. So I guess it's not completely lost lol

What if you did a run where it was survivors vs Pyschos. (I know you would probably have to get the last hit. It would be entertaining)

It's been asked about a lot but the DR1 AI sucks, as well the survivor cap is a bit tough to manage since I think Sean would be potentially impossible

Did the Steven fight music have to get removed by AI? The audio got low quality suddenly and there was no music. It threw me off. It was also funny because you said you love the song and started jamming to no music at all. Lol.

Yeeeea bro, dope vid. Just edit out most of the uneeded deaths, keep the funny stuff. If you want some good examples IMO, check out distortion2, Bushy, or Skumnut. They make Elden Ring challenge vids, but their EDITING STYLE would fit your vids. Guaranteed more subs off that in itself. But until next vid, cheers.
