i do not like this game very much and think it represents a really big creative misunderstanding re: what people enjoy about this series and why Frank became a popular character but thats just me man

I have played through all numbered Dead Risings and this one is my favorite of the bunch. This game gets a lot of guff about being too different from the other games in the series but to me it's not that huge of a difference and really streamlines the experience. NO MORE ESCORT SIDE MISSIONS is one I can get behind, and I think crafting is a little easier. They're aren't as many combo weapons but there are still more than enough and the Exosuit adds a new flavor to the DR series. I just wish it lasted longer but then again it's kinda OP. If I had to nag on few things about this game it'd probably be 2 things. I think the graphics aren't top notch but still not horrible not a deal breaker at all. Second and this is probably the most hated on aspect of this game and rightfully so. NO MORE PSYCHOS. They dropped the ball on this and it was the most interesting part of the earlier entries. Now instead you have groups of 'maniacs' but they are just your run of the mill bad guys. All in all, could it have been better? Why sure. But as it stands it is definitely worth playing and I fully enjoyed it.

genuinely dont think this game deserves all the hate story is a bit meh but the typical dead rising fun is still here
