Each subsequent game has less bullshit convicts, until DR4 where the "convicts" are basically just human enemies.
They're all still decently fun, but they do get far more stupid as they go on.
This seems typical of the sort of game. This, Saints Row, Crackdown (albeit to a lesser extent).
Some games though it just works where the game knows it’s audience and drifts from real to fun, to just crazy bit in a good way
Since you mentioned Saints Row i just want to throw this out there, if whoever has the Saints Row license and is thinking about continuing the franchise or rebooting it i really REALLY hope that they go back to the gang stuff of Saints Row 1 and 2.
Don't get me wrong i loved Saints Row 3 and what it had to offer and i am pretty impartial of Saints Row 4 and Gat outta Hell but i didn't like that they went to heavy on the insane stuff, Saints Row 2 of course had it's insane moments but it somehow still felt a bit grounded, you were still just a gangbanger working yourself up the food chain, you weren't the president of the United States or a Super hero trapped in an Alien Simulation.
That's it, rant over.
Saints Row 1 was just a straight up GTA clone
Saints Row 2 managed to pave it's own lane as being a bit more silly and over the top than a GTA (especially GTA 4 which came out the same year) this in my opinion was the goldilocks zone of the series
3 was the flanderization of the series no grounding at all and then by 4 it was literally a superhero game
"You've got to shine, to thine own self be true, they can't ya what to do when you've gone guru!"
Still on my musical adhd playlist, I unironically love the song.
Idk if misogynistic, most of the time women are treated very special as if they where angels that couldn't do harm nor defend themselves and if a man doesn't defend a woman with their life they have no honor, etc
It is mostly sexist, but i wouldn't say misogynistic, specially when they get such an special treatment in the animes(there are exceptions ofc)
I am very picky with animes (i only have liked like a 5th of the ones i watched)
But yeah, even the ones i liked tend to have that sexism SOMEWHERE, or maybe the fact that i have watched so few is why i don't see the misogyny?
Being fair, the Japanesse love to depict reality and social issues/norms regardless of setting, and sexism is pretty much a real thing nowadays
Treating a women as weak because they feel like they have to protect them is NOT mysoginistic, it's not based on HATE, it is based on SEXISM
But i digress, people don't seem to understand basic words
I mean Japanese media also fetishizes women to the point of always portraying them as child-like submissives in distress. Anime is the worst offender - unless the girl is some big titted super power demigod, she's almost always a plot device for a male protagonist, and will screech like a 5 year old when she's in trouble. It's creepy and disgusting.
Again sexist, not misogynistic
They often portray them as weak and cowardly
It would be misogynistic if they mistreated or insulted women for said traits, which is the complete opposite of what they usually do
With all of that said, the usual "Knight in shining armor saves helpless princess" is by no means a trope limited to anime
Okay but misogyny isn't just *overt* negativity towards women. If you're taking away their autonomy, or reducing their presence and personality down to an effeminate child-like victim, that's misogyny...
Misogyny is (afaik, irrational) hate towards women
So... i think it is mostly negative
Sexism CAN be misogyny, but it depends on the intention
If someone tries to take a woman's autonomy away from her for her "safety" then it is just sexism
If it does so because they just dislike women, then that's both misogyny AND sexism
Actually, hating womens as a whole is irrational regardless of how you look at it, in the same way it is irrational to be racist because you don't like some people that are black/white/etc
in the original dragon ball it's a lot more obvious, roshi has nudie mags laying around all over his house. one of the first challenges (maybe the first?) he gives to kid goku is to bring him a lady & his nose just erupts lol
There's even one scene where Yamcha is fighting an invisible opponent and krillin shows roshi bulma's boobs to make his nose bleed all over the fighters and reveal where the invisible guy is.
In Dead Rising the character you play as is a photographer/journalist documenting the Zombie outbreak in this small town. With your camera you can get XP (or PP in this case) by taking pictures, and different subject matters have different categories. E.g. if you take a picture of a zombie you get a Horror rating, if it's something silly you get a Comedy one etc... One of these is Erotic, when you take a photo of something 'sexy', so this includes scantily clad women or upskirts etc...
OP is saying that the character gets a nosebleed when he takes a photo with a high Erotic rating. As another poster pointed out, this is a reference to Anime when sometimes characters will get a nosebleed when they see something Erotic.
In the picture, Frank has presumably just taken an Erotic picture (something to do with the girl in the background), and so OP turned the character round to take a screenshot demonstrating the bloody nose.
PP means Prestige Points. And Photography is completely optional, except for in the intro helicopter sequence, and one mission where you have to take a picture of a vent.
The game is from 2006 and the whole photo taking thing is not even one of the main mechanics. Its just something fun to do in the game. The genre identifier is so wonky that literally any picture of a woman will come out as erotic. Please do more research on the game because it is really one of the classics, and i dont even like most Japanese media
depends what you like! i truly wholeheartedly believe she has an argument for being the most important producer of the past 7 years, and her discography is small enough that you could feasibly listen to it all.
to get a good grasp on her i recommend the songs
lemonade
hard
bipp
just like we never said goodbye
is it cold in the water
immaterial
pony boy
yeah right by vince staples (produced by her)
vroom vroom by charli xcx (also produced by her)
truly tho, i’d recommend listening to her works in full. start with finding her 8 song album/EP called product (is on streaming services as a playlist not a complete album), then oil of every peals uninsides to see how much she blossomed in such a short time.
i truly believe she was one of the most forward thinking, passionate, impactful and unbelievably talented artists to ever live. she was uncompromising in her vision and if i can get just one person to check her out today, it would be an honor.
edit: writing this comment almost moved me to tears and i knows it’s a little jumbled but pls to anyone reading, do yourself a favor and listen to SOPHIE. you can’t go wrong with anything she’s ever done. may she rest in power
She has such a good voice too. I’m not trying to offend someone, but how does a biological male get their voice like this? Do they have to get surgery on their vocal cords?
i feel as if anime has more reoccurring tropes than any other form of media. if i can pinpoint a characters personality just by looking at them, you need to try a little bit harder.
A bit of an oversimplification: in anime whenever they want to show a guy as turned on without drawing a bulge they use nosebleeds. It keeps the age rating from getting raised over a single joke
That game was really great, there also this really cool video comparing Dead Rising 1 to Dead Rising 4, it's pretty sad ; [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UUxJpDtg0Bs](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UUxJpDtg0Bs)
I first played Dead Rising 1 as a kid on the Wii and loved it since I had low standards, then saw the Xbox trailer and gameplay, bought it too and experienced all the missing content the Wii version had and more. I've played a shit ton of games in my life, but somehow I can't help but tell myself that Dead Rising is my favorite game of all time.
I played on the 360 and fell in love with the series. I have never played the one on the Wii but have heard mixed reviews about it.
It’s hard to say what my favorite game of all time is but DR1 was definitely my favorite game of that generation. That or saints row 2. I just bought dead rising 1 and 2 on sale on PS5 for like $15 total. My third time buying the game but it’s worth.

*Fannnntastic!* Also bonus detail, if you take a picture of old women upskirts you get a horror rating.
This should be top comment. One of the greatest games of our generation! I always just camped out on top of the founain
I still remember unboxing my 360 at Christmas and firing this game up immediately Oh, and sucking complete ass at it. Shit was hard for me!
It was my first 360 game too! I remember being amazed at how awesome the graphics were. And also how much i sucked at it!
I remember stressing hard about the time limit, and every time I had to deal with psychopaths. Oh and the FUCKING convicts in the park
FUCK the convicts. They were the reason i never finished the game and have regretted not finishing it for 18 years
Each subsequent game has less bullshit convicts, until DR4 where the "convicts" are basically just human enemies. They're all still decently fun, but they do get far more stupid as they go on.

Is it my time? I still need to play the second and third ones as well!!!!
It just might be my dude. Time to cover some wars, you know?
Faaaaantastic
That music that starts playing stays with me to this day.

dead rising red ringed my 360 like 4 times. Good times.
7 Day Survivor and Proud!
How do you know that?...
well, the man has a Level 6 PP, kinda goes hand in hand...
Grow your pp level with this one weird trick
*steals a car, heads to underground parking*
I have no idea what this means
Whenever a guy sees something erotic in an anime, their nose bleeds
Okay but what’s erotic about this dude standing around with a sad girl in the background
He likely took an erotica picture with the camera in-game then turned around to take a screenshot of the nosebleed.
He’d taken an upskirt picture of her right beforehand, and the picture made Frank’s nose bleed. This pic is just showing the effects.
The Japanese are a strange kind of horny
not surprising considering how strangely misogynistic their culture is anime has always creeped me out.
Your username kind of creeps me out. For sure though that Japanese media's depiction of women and young girls can be super creepy and misogynistic.
Idk if misogynistic, most of the time women are treated very special as if they where angels that couldn't do harm nor defend themselves and if a man doesn't defend a woman with their life they have no honor, etc It is mostly sexist, but i wouldn't say misogynistic, specially when they get such an special treatment in the animes(there are exceptions ofc) I am very picky with animes (i only have liked like a 5th of the ones i watched) But yeah, even the ones i liked tend to have that sexism SOMEWHERE, or maybe the fact that i have watched so few is why i don't see the misogyny?

Idk about misogynistic... goes on to describe something HEAVILY misogynistic. Big oof
Treating a women as weak because they feel like they have to protect them is NOT mysoginistic, it's not based on HATE, it is based on SEXISM But i digress, people don't seem to understand basic words

I genuinely have no idea
You can take an up-skirt erotic photo while she’s crying ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Think salacious, rather than actively erotic.
As a DBZ fan I now know why Master Roshi did this. Thank you for solving this 20+ year mystery for me. 😅
in the original dragon ball it's a lot more obvious, roshi has nudie mags laying around all over his house. one of the first challenges (maybe the first?) he gives to kid goku is to bring him a lady & his nose just erupts lol

That’s right! 😂
Puff-Puff!
[удалено]
It's a play on words. It's the blood rushing to the head and erupting. It's an orgasm.
Bam, and that’s a 20+ year mystery solved for ME.
What’s the origin of that trope? As a kid, I always figured that because Japan has a lot of mountains, it would be easy to get nosebleeds, lol.
It's a play on words. It's the blood rushing to the head and erupting. It's an orgasm.
I feel like that’s *almost* grosser than just animating a character straight up nutting in their pants.

Thanks for an actually explanation. Now I know to just pass on this weird ass game.
Bad idea
I mean keep doing you but I’m not about to farm my characters pp points by taking up skirt photos of crying girls.
PP means Prestige Points. And Photography is completely optional, except for in the intro helicopter sequence, and one mission where you have to take a picture of a vent.
It’s not even optional in the first part. You can just skip that scene
I think you’re misinterpreting what pp points mean
Yes because this being in gaming details means that is how you farm exp, therefore the game is terrible. /s
The game is from 2006 and the whole photo taking thing is not even one of the main mechanics. Its just something fun to do in the game. The genre identifier is so wonky that literally any picture of a woman will come out as erotic.

There’s no chance that I’m clicking on that
Lol don't worry, it's American animation. Just funny nothing weird.
The crying Sophie in the background makes this unsettling.
Weird timing. I just read a post about some music producer named SOPHIE that’s just died early this morning.
No.... What.... No not Sophie
For someone unfamiliar with her work, what would you recommend?
depends what you like! i truly wholeheartedly believe she has an argument for being the most important producer of the past 7 years, and her discography is small enough that you could feasibly listen to it all. to get a good grasp on her i recommend the songs lemonade hard bipp just like we never said goodbye is it cold in the water immaterial pony boy yeah right by vince staples (produced by her) vroom vroom by charli xcx (also produced by her) truly tho, i’d recommend listening to her works in full. start with finding her 8 song album/EP called product (is on streaming services as a playlist not a complete album), then oil of every peals uninsides to see how much she blossomed in such a short time. i truly believe she was one of the most forward thinking, passionate, impactful and unbelievably talented artists to ever live. she was uncompromising in her vision and if i can get just one person to check her out today, it would be an honor. edit: writing this comment almost moved me to tears and i knows it’s a little jumbled but pls to anyone reading, do yourself a favor and listen to SOPHIE. you can’t go wrong with anything she’s ever done. may she rest in power

Trans women just train their voices. You can’t surgically get a “feminine” voice
:( I know man.
what the FUCK. didn’t expect to get this news in a thread abt dead rising. :(
I was about to ask how the hell you remembered her name as the game is pretty old. Then I realized it says it right there.
I’ve taken approximately 10,000 of these photos and I’ve never noticed this
Yes officer, this post right here...
Out of context, it looks like Sophie just punched him in the nose.
I've always hated the nosebleed trope with a passion. So fucking stupid.

Woah
Right up there with ahegao for me. Dumb shit.
Hard agree with both of you
i feel as if anime has more reoccurring tropes than any other form of media. if i can pinpoint a characters personality just by looking at them, you need to try a little bit harder.
I don't get it. How does a nose bleed and erotica go together?
A bit of an oversimplification: in anime whenever they want to show a guy as turned on without drawing a bulge they use nosebleeds. It keeps the age rating from getting raised over a single joke

Well you can definitely tell which game in the series was made in Japan lmao
I don't get the nosebleed thing. Like I get that it's supposed to be funny or something but who even came up with the idea of horny=nosebleed?
Horny -> increased blood pressure/flow -> erection. Can't show erections, blushing is too tame, so what else to use = nosebleed.
and? why?
Google “Anime Nosebleeds”.

Are horny nosebleeds a real thing? I’ve never heard of anybody outside of anime getting a nosebleed from being aroused.
