To butt hurt Dino Crisis fans mass downvoting promos for this game...
You suck. Every promo video for this game is mass downvoted and littered with comments like "We lost Dino Crisis for this", and I expect this game will probably be mass downvoted on steam when it launches for the same reason. I've never heard of Dino Crisis and now I don't want to touch it because the community seems like absolute aids.

I'm a big Asura's Wrath fan who keeps begging capcom for a remaster, and you know what I do when all capcom does is add in an Asura skin into street fighter? I'm happy because I think its cool to see, even though that basically means they acknowledge he has popularity but refuse to make a remaster/new game for him.

For you Dino fans though, this is a completely new and entirely separate IP from capcom. There are not stories about a possible Dino Crisis being cancelled or shelved to make Exoprimal, and capcom didn't tease you with some cryptic Dino Crisis-like teaser only to bait-and-switch reveal this game. From the first trailer it has been very obvious this is its own thing.

This is a new IP that honestly has much more in common with Lost Planet than Dino Crisis (from Dino gameplay vids I've seen), and from the beta the PvE gameplay is a blast (PvP needs work but thats a separate topic). It's fun and seems to have some soul and passion behind it in presentation (which is more than I can say for most AAA games now), and some probably fresh devs (individuals, not a studio) are trying to prove themselves, but might not even start on the right foot because anytime someone sees a video for the game (or a low review score for it on steam like I'm expecting) they're instantly going to see a massive dislike bar and probably not look into the lore behind it because most ppl dont.
Not because of bad gameplay, bad monetization, or bad story, but because of a group of fans who are mad that this capcom dinosaur game is not actually a different capcom dinosaur game.

If anything this is a Dino fan's best chance of getting a new Dino Crisis cause if this does well then it shows capcom people are interested in dinosaur games. You're literally shooting yourselves in the foot.

Criticize and downvote the game for poor mechanics/monetization, but don't do it because you want capcom to create a new game for an entirely different IP. Especially when this game actually looks fun, isn't out yet, and the only truly dislike-worthy thing its done is announce a battlepass before launch.
If you're really that frustrated, flood the exoprimal capcom forums, beta survey, or hell the steam discussion threads to let them know how vocal you are. Don't do it for public promo material that will negatively affect opinions of normies and cause the game to falter for something completely out of its control.
And yes, obviously I think the game looks cool and I had a blast in the beta and so did my friends, but we almost passed up on it for the exact reasons I stated above. Glad I took the time to look into it, something I'm sure most won't do.

This Dino Downvote campaign is the dumbest thing I've seen in a long time from a group of gamers.

No, for the reason that Capcom is known for shutting down fan projects and sue them while not making their own official remake or sequel.

Except it looks like a sequel for the least fav game in series - the epic fail DIno Crisis 3, with sci-fi stuff and dinosaurus, with Regina's lookalike character. Yeah, completely new and entirely separate.

Imagine if Capcom released only crappy Resident Evil Reverse or Resistance and not even related to Resident Evil IP just to see if there is interest for Resident Evil 2-4 remakes?

sorry but no sympathy for capcom DC fans have been asking for years for new DC game or heck give us remasters or port of old DC games but nope.

so apparently they also shut down fan made project and that yikes.

Also for "New" IP Exoprimal does burrow a lot Dino crisis story elements from time traveling Dinosaurs, mutant dinosaurs, to an Evil AI.

Can't believe we lost Dino Crisis for this filth, Reginabros...
Shizuma Mar 20, 2023 @ 9:04am 
Dino Crisis wasn't lost for this one, the IP has been dead for 20 years now. There was no plan to resurect it that suddenly switched into Exoprimal.
Sure there are some comon elements, but the game isn't even tagged as a side DC project.
Senki Mar 20, 2023 @ 10:56am 
Yeah those kind of people are obnoxious.

If you don't like the game then it's fine but at least have a good reason for it not your imaginary dead franchise being even more dead because of an unrelated new IP.
TEAM SALTY Mar 20, 2023 @ 11:41am 
Nothing new, idiots were down voting Resident Evil Resistance because they are garbage at multiplayer games or street fighter 5 because it lacked "story mode".

Ok? That has nothing to do with this new game? Why don't you guys go mass downvote every single other capcom video then?

....Except its not a sequel to that game. Thats why its not called Dino Crisis 4. By your logic the new Jurrasic World movies are also based off DC 3 because they have scifi and dinosaurs. The gameplay from this game is absolutely nothing like any of the DC games, from what I've seen DC didn't have teams of 5 online swapable mechs that killed hordes of thousands of dinosaurs. The look-alike character was probably intended to be a nod since this is another scifi dinosaur game made by capcom.
Dino Crisis did not invent and does not own exclusive rights to scifi dinosaurs, the mental gymnastics here are crazy.

In that case outrage would be somewhat justified because they ARE related to the Resident Evil IP because they literally have Resident Evil IN THE NAME. This game's name is Exoprimal, not Dino Crisis: Exoprimal. It has literally no relation to DC, so even by your own logic the DC outrage doesn't make any sense.

Because they are not mainstream mediocre online games with dinosaurs dropped on us instead of a long requested and long awaited Dino Crisis game?

Oh, okay. That changes everything.

That's a problem, all three DC games was different and fans wanted any but third, and especially not the third sci-fi arcade like shooter in space with jetpacks and lasers turned up to eleven even further and for completely different genre.

"Hey guys, how do you like our little nod to Dino Crisis in this completely different game nobody wanted and expected? BTW, don't use our characters or look-alikes. And don't use anything, not that we invented dino games or owns exclusive rights to it, but don't use it or we'll sue you and shut down all your projects".

Imagine that they are not. Imagine a random mediocre sci-fi zombie online coop game that looks like a latest and worst game in series, let's say Resident Evil Survivor and new Call of Duty-like first person online shooter, while fans are going crazy with lack of new games in series for 20 years and can't even make their own fan projects?
I understand that this is completely different game and genre, but since you started this topic with provocations and insults to fans, that's some perspective for your why fans can be that mad.

And thats it then, there's nothing else to discuss. Downvoting this game because you're salty won't help bring back DC. It has no relation to DC. Once again, DC does not own the patent on dinosaurs. Your anger for this game through DC has absolutely no logical consistency or legitimacy.
"but what if", "but it could have been", "but its kind of like". I live in reality, not fantasy land. Reality is DC was shelved because 3 apparently sucked ass, and now, 20 years later, capcom is making a 5v5 overwatch/anthem clone with dinosaurs and thats somehow secret proof they're purposefully ignoring DC fans.
You and the other guy keep bringing up shutting down fan projects like its some smoking gun, but again that has literally 0 to do with this game, its dev team, or probably anyone involved with this project. And if capcom shuts down a fan project because it uses characters from their IP, its super ♥♥♥♥♥♥ but they are legally allowed to do that because they own the IP. Thats always the risk of fan projects. Some companies like SEGA love them, some like Capcom hate them.

We're talking in circles and you're determined to die mad so there's nothing else to say. Truly the definition of butt hurt.

You may counter me by saying: "But there's a lot of people requesting it" Actual number of people: 15 LOL

People forget that video games are gifts. Something we should take joy in, not complain about in forums hoping to influence developers. Even if developers were reading these foums, there's nothing productive to be taken from 15 ppls negative complaints.

Resistance got hate because it looked bad. Then it launched and it was bad.

OP, a few Dino Crisis fans downvoting videos are the least of this game's worries. You should be more concerned with Capcom's track record of failed versus-focused titles: Umbrella Corp, Resistance and RE:Verse all died very quick deaths.

I'd be very wary of purchasing an online only game from them.

Agreed. I very very rarely act with sarcasm, but lately we've seen unjustified hate towards games and companies that do try to deliver something good, in an era where we get so many broken releases. People fail at delivering their critics to bad releases, cursing more than anything instead of enabling fair communication. You don't throw your plate at the waiter or chef for a dish that is below your expectation, not if you're mature.

Every single release nowadays got people whinning about the most obnoxious reasons, so much that we can hardly find forums whose page is filled with players exchanging information and helping each other. I'm just sick of this BS behavior. They know they're hurting a game's attempt to success by doing this and influencing people, misleading them saying Exoprimal (or any other game) is a rip off, this and that. I don't understand why people who won't buy games still must go to forums to voice their frustration saying "I'm not going to buy". Just wtf is wrong?

My dude, life is short, get to enjoy what's in the present, you never know when this bloody Dino Crisis will be released (if it ever will), so go do something better than pestering people who are actually excited about the game. Let people do what they want with their wallets. Dude, for real, too many complainers. We are consumers but it doesn't mean we should wreak havoc everywhere because our inner wishes weren't granted. Wtf, this has to be explained, wtf...

What do these people think? It must be this:

Capcom: "People are somehow hurting our game's rating and every marketing campaign for Exoprimal because they want Dino Crisis. We are starting to fail. Eureka! I got an idea! Now they've potentially contributed to a negative image of our new product, leading to loss of money, why don't we make Dino Crisis 8 for the very ones who want us to fail so hard?"

Dude, for real... What reaction are those people expecting from Capcom when they keep crying for DIno Crisis? I'll never understand.

Oh I totally agree. I'm definitely waiting a week or 2 after release to see some reviews in for the game and see if its worth (nice thing about crossplay and free on gamepass though is you don't have to worry too much about the player pool). Like I said earlier, them having a trailer for a battlepass before release is already a red flag.
But even before anyone knew about of this, when the first few trailers of the game came out which only showed decent looking gameplay, the dislike bar was at like 50% for all of them on youtube with many comments complaining about Dino Crisis. Those comments have more or less been burried by ppl commenting on the actual game, but you'll still see the dislike bar is higher than it reasonably should be for those trailers because those massive waves of early dislikes from butt hurt DC fans are still there.

If your definition of gifts is paying companies to receive a potentially broken product with unkept promises and predatory monetization then... sure I guess.

I agree there are way too many comments that aren't constructive criticism or that complain about nonsense but there are also many things that deserve to be complained about in the gaming industry.

These people complaining about Dino crisis are in the complaining about nonsense category though.
