If you have any, please post your afterthought questions for the Dead Rising video here. I'll be away for much of August but will get to work on it as soon as I can after the 15th

Given the series decline do you have hope for a revival or has 4 killed it stone dead. On the other hand should we be happy with the good we got out of franchise and move on although I am not aware of other things that scratch quite the same itch

Frank West is replaced by Johnny English. How does it change the story? I'm sorry, I'm sorry. Okay serious question: How would you've continued the story in the next game?

When you were discussing/bemoaning the slow but steady streamlining of modern gaming into the soup of AAA development, I was getting reminded of my own experience with another Capcom series from close to the same time in Monster Hunter, where it was originally infamous for it's rough design early on, has now over decades become a very... clean experience comparatively. What are some other franchises that you felt had interesting early installment roughness that ended up lost over time?

What is your first impression on a randomizer of the game? Got into archipelago and saw that the remake has a randomizer. Didn't look into what is randomized

A simple one: Who was your Favorite Psychopath from the whole franchise ? Be it thematic wise, fight wise or just fun wise ! I guess i could also tackle: your overall favorite psycho track of the franchise XD

I'm curious know what you think of the Chop Till You Drop Wii Port of the game, as footage of it appears occasionally in your video. Of all the versions of DR1, it's the most modified version, using the framework of RE4's wii port and haphazardly featuring cut down versions of of the game's mall.

Related to your discussion of the remake and of remakes in general, what are your thoughts on remakes recasting everyone? Is it in line with your overall opinion on remakes or does it differ in some way?

Did you ever try the Hockey Stick on the second Carlito fight? I recall it being pretty good against him

Relating to the Skyrim mention: I'm in a weird position on that game and Fallout 4 in that, while I like them both, they also feel like electronic oatmeal unless if I stuff them to the gills with mods to roughen and re-flavor the experience. Ironically, they feel like "sandbox" games in the literal meaning of the word, where they feel like they have all the material for great gaming, but I need to bring my own tools or challenges to get anything striking out of them. Are there any games you've played that gave you this experience? And, on top of that, at what point is the player effectively building a new game instead of searching for a better one?

Got a rare and threatening double davis for you. Did you notice any changes in your writing on this video compared to the usual Playing videos you make? I picked up on some jokes and gags that, from what I remember, you don't usually include when writing Playing videos for one reason or another. That's not me saying they weren't hits, by the way. I just noticed they're something new is all. Dead Rising is revealed to me as a 3rd new type of "timer game" to join Majora's Mask and Pikmin in my brain. That extra addition has me really curious to see more ideas for how one could direct a game with the presence of a timer. If you're familiar with all 3, are you aware of a fourth unique use of a game-wide timer that's worth looking into? If yes, what is it and makes it special?

Who is your favorite survivor to save either in this game or the whole series in general?
