What's the Difference between Resident Evil and Dead Rising?

Hello everyone I'm XboxClown89, I wanted to write another horror comparison blog. What's better than two of my absolute favorite Capcom horror game franchises? Some people might be very surprise how vastly different the two franchises are from each other. To clarify, I mostly wanna focus on the main canon stuff.

I may make a few references to some of their non canon stuff to a degree. First I got to discuss what they both got in common. You have survivors trying to survive viral outbreaks. In some of their games they deal with zombies. There's a corrupt corporation that's secretly involved with these outbreaks. Yes they also had some strong ties within the government.

More recently Dead Rising 4 went back to Colorado where the events of the original Dead Rising took place. In Resident Evil Requiem, Leon returns to a destroyed Raccoon City. He last been there prior to the city getting nuked back in Resident Evil 2 both versions. To a degree, one of the protagonists gets infected.

They later get cured with Frank going through two different variations of the parasites. Some of the protagonists joins a group that's against corporations responsible for the viral outbreaks. In some of the games, there's a further mutated variation of zombies. Both had different takes on a cure with majority of Resident Evil antidote being experimental.

Some of the protagonists team up in a later entry. Eventually the main corrupt corporation falls ending an era. Inevitably other groups of people continued in some way what they started. Isabela forced to work for the corporation helped a role in saving humanity. In Resident Evil: Vendetta movie, Rebecca created a cure to a virus.

Now I can finally discuss how different these two franchises really are? Resident Evil is the more overall serious tone survival horror game franchise. Which is also represented within the game play canon wise. Dead Rising is notably more comical in the actual game play. Resident Evil uses for the most part real life guns as well as explosives.

Dead Rising literately lets you use anything as a weapon. I do mean anything with toys, sports gear and so much more!!! In some of the games allows has combo weapons mechanic. Which allows the player to create two or more things together. To be honest, a lot of these combinations gets very crazy!!! Resident Evil usually has survivors wearing uniforms in most of the main entries.

Dead Rising actually allows the player to dress up anyway they want. Which does include dressing up like a kid or a woman as a male character. Which also means there's more outfits in Dead Rising series. This is excluding DLC outfits as well. Resident Evil can notably differ among the main entries. The first three Resident Evil games are classic survival horror style with more puzzles to solve.

Resident Evil 3: Nemesis differs with more actual getting chased by a monster among a few other things. Resident Evil 4 & Resident Evil 5 are more action based with a shop feature. Resident Evil 6 was a train wreck with a lackluster shop feature. Resident Evil 7: Biohazard goes first person view direction while being more like the actual franchise.

Resident Evil Village felt like a mix between RE4 and RE7 respectively. I still haven't played Resident Evil Requiem prior to writing this. Yes I seen a large amount of the game. Grace's portions more first person view by default while Leon's portions more like Resident Evil 4 Remake. Leon's portions done in third person view by default.

Dead Rising doesn't shift the game play that much in comparison. Resident Evil in some main entries has a limited inventory slots. Some do get bigger to a degree through buying them. Dead Rising heavily centers on a leveling system. Every time you level up some aspects of the experience changes. Like getting another slot to hold something, earned a move or your overall health amount increases.

Majority of main Resident Evil games is linear at best. But it's non linear more smaller scale open world for Dead Rising series. For the original Dead Rising as well as the newer version takes place inside a mall. Dead Rising 2 takes place in Fortune City based on Las Vegas. The last two entries does much bigger than those.

Resident Evil has a lot of zombies while that pales to Dead Rising. Just in the original Dead Rising alone could have eight hundred zombies on screen at once. Yes the numbers kept getting bigger with each installment. Resident Evil also deals more with infected creatures. Sticking to the main canon stuff of Dead Rising there aren't any at all.

Resident Evil offers more of a variety in terms of the monsters. Dead Rising does Psychopaths later Maniacs that acts as majority of optional boss fights. This is a notable aspect Resident Evil doesn't cover. Where many people through tragedies during those incidents went insane. This by itself does get a little weird with some of the boss characters.

Resident Evil has a few characters cured from a few viral diseases. Dead Rising had a surprise cure inside Dead Rising 3's protagonist Nick Ramos. The closest Resident Evil gotten to this was Jake Muller whose Albert Wesker's son funny enough. Yes some of those were parasites like Las Plagas. Raccoon City later Terragrigia gets destroyed.

Terragrigia gets basically the famous magnifying glass burning method through using satellites. I don't know if that concept came from Batman or not, Batman & Robin movie reference. Chuck was able to call off fire bombing to save what's left of Fortune City. For those not aware, fire bombing is the next best thing to nukes to make sure everything dead during a crisis.

Dead Rising is more directly focus on working with other survivors. Most of the protagonists never joined an organization like The BSAA in Resident Evil universe. We actually get to see how everyone else gets effected by these incidents. Yes Resident Evil is bigger scale in some of the main entries. Like Resident Evil 6 occurred over three continents.

Resident Evil is more of the grand scheme of viral outbreaks. You get a clear idea how fast populations could crumble. Resident Evil is more of people trying to stop organizations or those allied with them altogether. Dead Rising also offers more variety of health items. Yes you can use a blender to make mixed drinks that differ in effects.

A personal tip if you ever get randomizer, throw it away!!! Dead Rising is more about directly using your environment to survive. Great players can quickly adapt on the fly. You also have more freedom to drive vehicles. Very few vehicle placements doesn't give you much to work with. In majority of Dead Rising series has a huge time limit.

Yes it does come into play to determine which ending you get? It's even possible to wait the entire time limit being a couple hours in the first two entries to get an ending. Some of the main Resident Evil games has multiple endings. Personally I felt this aspects was notably done better in Dead Rising series. Sure some of the instructions for the original Dead Rising you may not properly understand at first.

After a couple runs memorizing stuff down you'll better understand how to go about some of these endings. You also need to know which ending will lead you to the true ending in most of them. This doesn't matter for Dead Rising 2 since Overtime Mode actually non canon there. We know this because parts of Ending A that actually goes into the beginning of Dead Rising 2: Case West confirmed this.

I recently mentioned in another blog entry about how endings were done in Dead Rising 4. Which is such a questionable, bad decision for a video game. Dead Rising also allows the player to place masks on zombies. In some of the games, you also can take pictures. Yes there's a few categories with a particular one removed from Dead Rising Deluxe Remaster version.

There's a lot of ways to earn experience to level up. If you get creative actually could sped through a lot of the leveling. Yes whatever level you're on does carry over into newer playthroughs. Even if you never gotten an ending prior. As long as you saved your process you keep whatever process you have. Restarting runs does not reset your level.

Like some of the main Resident Evil games, there's a shop feature. I felt Dead Rising 2 went about the concept the best. You run into more looters that's interested in selling you things. You can easily stock up on them. in Dead Rising 2's case, you have a few ways to get Zombrex. Which is required to be given to Katey whose a little girl or Frank in 2: Off the Record version.

Umbrella never officially completed a cure while Phenotrans created Zombrex as a temporary cure geez thanks!!! You also could combine vehicles or add particular weapons to a few vehicles. Which is called combo vehicles in the series. In most Dead Rising games, you have the option to go out your way to rescue other people.

Some of them does give you a reward. But to be honest, a few of them requires additional stuff that's a bit frustrating. Like this guy refuses to go with you unless you give him something to eat. In Dead Rising 2's case, some of the possible people you could've rescued starts trouble in the safe house. You could go out your way once again to fix the problem or not.

Hell Dead Rising 2 with a few people saved gives you a card game mini game in the safe house. Yes you can gamble a few ways in the same game. Another notable difference is carrying magazines around. If you go to use them will affect aspects to particular actions making things a little easier. Yes that also would include gambling in Dead Rising 2.

You could stock up on vehicle's health making them last a few times longer than normal. Even the crappier vehicles doesn't go out too quickly. But the more decent vehicles you may don't wanna stop driving lol. There's a magazine to help translate what a small group of foreigners are saying. I wish learning another language was that easy!!!

In most Dead Rising games, there's plenty ways around the maps. Trust me when I say even the smaller Dead Rising games that's exclusive to Xbox consoles. Their map sizes is a little bigger than expected. But still doesn't even come close to the main entries. You actually feel like you're in a city in some of them.

The military shows up never on the protagonists' side. Their main goal is kill everything then destroy all proof what happened there. I also should point out there's queens and kings among the parasites. Killing an queen kills a small horde of zombies in close proximity. A king parasite only shown up in the true ending portions of Dead Rising 3.

Zombrex was stated to be made from the queen parasites. The assumption is the king parasites are required for reproduction. Cloning has a more essential role within Resident Evil. Umbrella made clones from a man named Sergei because it's very rare for someone having the DNA. Among injecting the T-Virus into themselves instantly becomes an tyrant.

In Dead Rising 4's case, cloning made a newer parasite possible not much else. Most Resident Evil protagonists are very well trained among a few key groups including the government. Most Dead Rising protagonists are regular people. Resident Evil also has higher mutation among the monsters. By this point, you could get infected in nearly every possible angle you could think of.

Although not explained Zombie Frank in Dead Rising 4 somehow maintain his intelligence. Similar to Calder whose that game's main antagonist that wears an exosuit. In some Resident Evil games, intelligence showing up more often among a few viral agents. Capcom confirmed these franchises aren't in the same universe.

To a degree, both franchises involves uncovering the truth. In Dead Rising series, the protagonists figures out who started the viral outbreaks among many other important things. Some form of communication, someone else either giving the protagonist information. Either important need to know stuff or optional stuff they could do during the incidents.

The actual map systems is a little better in Dead Rising series. Resident Evil with some notable exceptions has more straight forward story telling. There are times the players choose what happens next? Very true if you played Resident Evil 3: Nemesis. The main actual stories in Dead Rising series is set in stone.

You only truly affect how the stories ends. Traditionally the main campaigns has multiple endings with a further, shorter campaign goes into the true ending. Capcom reversed this with Dead Rising 4 with Frank Rising being paid DLC. The only Dead Rising game that's canon with no multiple endings is Dead Rising 2: Case West.

There's some platforming you could do while exploring some of the maps. Dead Rising 2 had a couple mini games around the map mostly gambling. There's also riding an animal as well as getting blown up while collecting money to name a few. You also can get on a particular ride. Yes they even allow you to go down a water slide.

Occasionally there's a few Capcom references. Yes Dead Rising does reference Resident Evil a lot. Majority of character reference outfits is pulled from several Mega Man series. You even could dress up as Arthur from Goblins 'n Ghosts with the completed costume doubling your max health. Dead Rising has a few locations that's not even in any Resident Evil games.

A good example being a few movie theaters. A few malls that differ from each other. Resident Evil 3: Nemesis does give you a lot of Raccoon City to explore. Sadly that pales to Dead Rising 3's map. There's also a few toy stores you could mess around with. A notable variety of clothing stores that differs from each other.

Resident Evil Village you could make food dishes to give to The Duke for stuff. Dead Rising does more actual cooking in a few ways. You could use a microwave or a stove to cook something. You also could use a stove to heat up a frying pan!!! Hell leaving some food items causes them to thaw or spoiled. Yes they actually allow you to eat spoiled food in the games.

I hope by now you could see how much these two are? Resident Evil does allow exploring just not to the degree as Dead Rising. Even how they went about zombies is a little different. Resident Evil has a few variations of them in the series. I also could say that about Dead Rising as well. But they differ more on Resident Evil side.

Resident Evil 6 zombies has some of their intelligences with some of them wielding weapons. This is excluding other main enemy groups in the more action entries. Dead Rising truly allows your imagination to run wild!!! I also felt achievement hunting wise, Dead Rising is a little more creative than Resident Evil at times.

Dead Rising is already packed with content before DLCs. They were designed to be replayable despite the first two entries being around eight to nine hours long. Depending which ending you're going for? Thankfully you can go more your pace with the last two entries. Dead Rising 4 removed the main time line for it's main campaign was a huge mistake to begin with.

Frank Rising has a main time limit with each upgrade being timed themselves to go for. Traditionally in most Resident Evil games, a countdown occurs at the end of those games. Resident Evil is ambitious in it's own right. They focus on the more essential parties centering around the incidents. Dead Rising is basically representing people caught between them.

Dead Rising brings in more unexpected game play especially from Capcom. Resident Evil always aimed to be somewhat revolutionary. More recently, each newer main Resident Evil game constantly changing the horror genre. Dead Rising represents more pure messing around fun in it's game play. Unfortunately, Capcom limited what the team could do with the franchise that led getting buried.

I was happy to see Dead Rising Deluxe Remaster happened. Resident Evil always went bigger with the overall scope of things. Dead Rising was essentially life of a party that eventually died out. Some could argue Capcom was a bit too focus on Resident Evil. But in all honestly, they have so many franchises!!! We are lucky some of them eventually came back in some form.

I was surprised the first two Dino Crisis games came back. If franchises like Dino Crisis comes back. What's preventing some of their other franchises from doing the same? Resident Evil always was a huge money earner for the company. Dead Rising is among their most successful to date. These two franchises forever changed the world.

Even right now people can't believe the original Dead Rising still held up amazingly well. Especially for an early Xbox 360 game. The same entry was considered by many to be the greatest zombie game ever made!!! Microsoft themselves saved Dead Rising 3. I know some people are mixed about that entry. I always enjoyed that Dead Rising game myself.

Dead Rising was like an unique experiment. Possibly seeing if lightning could hit the same spot twice. They already had huge success with Resident Evil prior. Up to Dead Rising 3, it was going well. Then let offs with Capcom constantly turned down ideas. In fact, the only other game the team done that isn't an Dead Rising game.

Puzzle Fighter (2017 game) was a new installment for Super Puzzle Fighter II Turbo. From what I seen Super Puzzle Fighter II Turbo HD Remix was better!!! I hope Capcom listens to the fans. I know a lot of them wants Dead Rising 2 to get a remake soon. For all we know they easily could make a brand new reboot game.

Dead Rising was like modern Zombies Ate My Neighbors to me. Which also had zombies and chainsaw maniacs respectively. Not to mention, a huge variety of weapons that's meant to be comical. Dead Rising up to a point had faster load times than Resident Evil if you could believe that!!! They also allow you to beat up zombies or a few moves as if you're in an beat 'em up game.

One of my favorite moves is doing a weird walking animation on top of a lot of zombies!!! Yes you heard me correctly you actually can walk on a lot of zombies if they're close enough to each other. This really helps in areas filled with zombies. You even could throw zombies into more zombies. Dead Rising is a vastly different beast from Resident Evil.

Resident Evil shows a lot more of the world in comparison. It's safe to say most continents been featured in the franchise. Dead Rising takes place in North America. Although, an handful of characters came from another country prior to the events of the original Dead Rising. Of course that doesn't stop people wanting to go patriotic in Dead Rising either.

Dead Rising is more underrated than anything else. Resident Evil usually among Capcom's biggest hits. Maybe some people might be interested in trying out some of the Dead Rising games. Which would make me quite happy. Dead Rising is great if you are new to video games. I just don't recommend starting people with the original Dead Rising.

I actually felt either version of Dead Rising 2 or Dead Rising 3 would be better. Dead Rising 2 improved in a few notable areas from the original game. Dead Rising 3 is the most chaotic that could be a lot of fun for some people. Despite having a vastly different look from the rest of the series. To me, it's so filled with creativity despite some super combo weapons being very op.

Some of those easily destroys the challenge of the game. For some people though that's a good thing. You don't have to kill yourself to make small process. They really give you so much to work with. This is where Dead Rising 3 truly shines!!! None of the Resident Evil games canon or non canon are like this Dead Rising game at all!!!

I always felt Dead Rising 3 had the best overall zombies in the franchise. Melee is notably better in Dead Rising series. Resident Evil makes using guns more unique. Sure you also could say that about Dead Rising regarding guns. More of that involves some of the combo weapons than anything else. Dead Rising did beat Resident Evil to using an light saber!!!

Both these video game franchises means the world to me. But in vastly different ways, both constantly inspiring me. Resident Evil is more amazing at what they actually pull off. Dead Rising is more unpredictable what it may bring to the table. I always felt that's the franchise's greatest strength. You just never know exactly what you're getting with an Dead Rising game.

Why I Absolutely Loved Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood?

Hello everyone I'm XboxClown89, I previously done a few comparisons with both Fullmetal Alchemist anime shows. Even back then I made it quite clear I preferred Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood more. Surprisingly beyond that, I never fully done an actual review of that show. You know what let's finally cover one of my absolute favorite remake anime shows in history!!!

Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood (2009-2010)

Before I can discuss the actual show. It's important I point out a couple shared moments from the original anime show are still presented. A few of those moments were entirely removed that didn't affect the story. The earlier portions up to a point will be faster pacing to quickly get through those moments. There's also a new character that shows up early on created by the author.

Originally with the first anime show, the author allowed the team to change the story. At that time, she still was writing the manga series. Surprisingly it ended up being a lighter series with some dark moments. Close to her finishing up the manga series. She gotten Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood anime to start in Japan.

The newer FMA anime show was intended to fully cover the entire manga series. Keep in mind, Fullmetal Alchemist was an monthly ran manga series. The author had notably more time to complete chapters for her story. In all honestly, it's a great story she written. Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood had a lot more notable characters than the first FMA anime show.

At the same time, majority of those characters were portrayed incredibly well!!! Following most of what was previously shown ends, the overall pacing becomes notably slower. But not too slow to ruin anything major. The Homunculi are the main villain group that differs a lot from the original anime versions. Personally I prefer these versions including the second Greed character more.

The main protagonist is Edward Elric that's searching for a way to fully bring his brother back to normal. His brother Alphonse for majority of the story was an possessed suit of armor. Both gotten training following The Truth penalize the brothers from attempting to revive their deceased mother. Edward himself loss two limbs during the process.

I do like we get to see a few countries. Each one notably differs in how they do things. Edward does become an state alchemist working for Amestris. The story uncovers many deep secrets especially beneath Amestris. The Homunculi are led by an homunculus known as Father. Each member outside him represents a particular sin among the seven deadly sins.

Yes all seven of them were created from his very being. I do love the twist behind Wrath in a few ways. Wrath was originally a capable human warrior that ended up becoming an king of Amestris. Yes I'm talking about Bradley that's among my favorite members. One of his eyes given an philosopher's stone that further enhanced his combat prowess.

In the original FMA anime version, he was Pride recreated from a failed ritual to revive someone. In this version, anyone trying to revive people became targets to a particular ritual. The Homunculi were secretly behind everything over a few centuries. Yes Amestris secretly attempted to recreate the homunculus creating failed pale imitations of their species.

Some might be wondering what is a philosopher's stone right? Basically to create one, you sacrifice a lot of people. Fuse their souls into a philosopher's stone. Which means every homunculus has a lot of human souls inside them. The ritual I mentioned involved people that were marked. Following failed attempts to revive someone with a rather controversial moment.

The homunculus force Colonel Mustang to get the penalty after they perform a similar act against his will. The price to be paid was his eyes since he was the next person in line following Bradley. The moon itself was used as a circle to steal a lot of human souls. This was done for Father to claim God. Yes God gets taken by an homunculus was a scary moment.

Thankfully, Elric brothers' dad had a plan that screw him over using the same circle Father used against him. A lot of those souls returned to their respective bodies. Quickly putting a notable strain on Father that leads to the final battle. Yes there's a lot of death in this anime show. But there's some decent lighter moments as well.

The ending itself was done amazingly well for it's time. I will be very honest there is little to nothing to criticize. In every single category is done to perfection!!! Yes it's a little bit longer than the original FMA anime show. I felt most of the characters that's used in both shows was done better here. Some shared moments differ a little when they happened between the two versions.

Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood also had a few chimeras. Either as experiments or a particular little girl fused with her dog that had a sad ending. Yes there was a movie that's non canon to the story. But it's still a decent anime movie to watch though. From start to finish you would be pulled in until the show ends.

It's very rare for me to say any show was that great. But in all honestly, anime wise it's still among the best I ever seen!!! Yes I watched this version on Toonami years ago. In a way, it's popularity led to a few remake anime shows or movies mostly Evangelion. There's a lot of complexity with some aspects being much easier to understand.

To me, every single episode felt like great anime movies is a great sign. Everyone involved absolutely nailed this adaptation!!! Yes this is notably darker from the original FMA anime in the later portions. I also preferred overall character designs more in this version as well. I'm talking more about their appearances to clarify.

For me it's a little weird when some parts of characters are colored a little differently. Yes that was a shot at Hellsing Ultimate to the original Hellsing anime show. The same also could be said for both Hunter x Hunter anime shows. Sure this is more of a nip pick thing. Father was a great antagonist for the story.

I took him much more serious than Dante whose the main antagonist in the original FMA anime show. I also noticed both of them had a personal connection to their father. Although in vastly different ways it still was quite interesting to point out. Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood barely has any notable filler stuff.

Yes I know some people hated many older anime shows that were filled with filler content. This anime show is among the absolute greatest ever created!!! Fullmetal Alchemist notably differs from many Shonen manga franchises. Yes there's a lot of fights within the manga series. But the overall procession was more story focus than anything else.

It's not often when a notable upgrade in some form happened in Fullmetal Alchemist franchise. Despite some species as well as alchemy itself. Majority of how the world works is a little realistic at best. It's not too realistic to take away from the overall vision. Neither it's too unrealistic to turn people off. I felt the author found the perfect balance for everything.

Yes that was perfectly portrayed in Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood show. I should point out in Japan, the series just called Fullmetal Alchemist like the first FMA anime show there. I personally respected they added Brotherhood to the title for overseas versions of the show. Brotherhood easily play out the story following two brothers on a journey to reclaim what was taken from them.

It also was a play on the Homunculi that acted as a secret group behind many tragedies. For me, it was the perfect title for this anime adaptation. On the side, there's a few OVA episodes that covered bonus chapters from the manga that act as side stories. Even these were well animated that followed those bonus chapters perfectly.

Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood is a true master piece. This author studied looking up many people's views of alchemy while writing the manga series. Alchemy is a mix of magic with scientist. I know some experts would quickly disagree on that point of view. There's some religion with politics that never over stays it's welcome within the story.

There's so much people still could learn about the franchise simply by watching this anime show. I really felt this absolutely nailed what the franchise is at it's core. Honestly, I can't recommend this anime show enough!!! It's a great story with plenty twists on the way. I do think everyone could find something they like from watching this show.

This anime show is still among the most inspiring I ever seen!!! This is how you make a newer version of a classic but also don't disrespect it at the same time. Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood brings in every possible emotions imaginable. Ultimately everything works out in the end despite some horrible things that happened.

Dead by Daylight pitch

I should quickly throw in what my possible licensed chapter pitch for this anime show going to be? Obviously Edward Elric deserves to be the survivor with everything he had endured. The killer could be either Pride or Wrath. I don't think many people would like Father since he taken God in the story. Some might misunderstand thinking he's God out of confusion.

I felt Pride easily could work since he manipulates shadows being a true monster. He also was the oldest of the Homunculi Father created. Wrath aka Bradley would be my other choice. Despite his appearance, he's actually the youngest among the seven excluding second Greed. I do see ways they both could easily change up the game play.

Pride could use areas with lights to reach survivors that's a notable distance away. He also could blend into the shadows to hide from the survivors. Of course, this would be temporary with a short time limit or he'll be force to leave the cover he's hiding from. He also could temporary block some vaulting spots with his shadows.

I would assume his main mori is devouring them. Similar to how he devoured Gluttony. Which added his abilities onto his own further spicing up the game play. Survivors could have a possible smell Pride can easily pick up on. If he can't find you the normal way with the scratches. This would be the next best option to tracking the survivors down.

As for Bradley, they need to heavily play off his Ultimate Eye. Yes it does have a flaw if something blocking his sight. It's possible to attack him for a short period of time. Considering his enhanced stats, Bradley going to be a fast killer. He likely be armed with two swords. But they might allow him to swap out weapons to a degree.

Mostly keep things melee for fairness purposes. I also think he could be given another ability to increase a few possible actions' effectiveness. Like if a survivor about to finish vaulting, he has more time than most killers to hit em. He also would have more time to open them in a few situations as well. Bradley could use his swords to charge through pallets.

I think some of his moris will be direct references to kills he's done on the show. Both of them easily could be given some brutal moris. They were among the highest among the Homunculi in command confirmed in the actual story. If it's obvious by now they simply would be called The Pride and The Wrath respectively.

I would be curious where in the story either of them could be taken from? I would assume Edward before the final battle a huge possibility. I also want some of the characters to be legacy skin cosmetics for several characters. I would appreciate all seven of the homunculus Father created could be in Dead by Daylight.

I do think the demand for this chapter is surprisingly higher than what some people thinks. I recently found out it's among a couple franchises listed in every licenses survey the team ever done. Now that's a testament to Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood's greatness!!! I would absolutely wanna play as some of these characters in the near future myself.

Death Note is a true classic

Hello everyone I'm XboxClown89, I realized among checking my posts. I haven't surprisingly discuss much with a particular manga/anime franchise I always respected for a long time. Death Note blew a lot of people's minds for many reasons. I previously talked about The Simpsons parody Death Tome before. Now I get to discuss the actual franchise itself.

Death Note

Manga

2003-2006

Anime

2006-2007

Death Note was unusual in a few major ways. The author was Tsugumi Ohba who worked with artist Takeshi Obata. Following this they also worked together on Bakuman and Platinum End respectively. If you played Castlevania: Judgment on Wii, Obata drawn the Castlevania characters for that fighting game. Unlike a lot of manga series that involves direct combat.

Death Note was more of the famous cat and mouse theme. The cat of course being our protagonist whose named Light Yagami. He previously was a high school student until one unexpected event happened. A death note fell, he took the book with him. He had a strong sense of justice. He started writing criminal's names down in the death note.

Which actually kills people if following the rules correctly. In secret, Light was called Kira for taking a lot of people's lifes through out the story. Yes the death note can literately kill someone whose on the opposite side of the world from you. It doesn't even matter how protected you think you are. If he writes your name down you're already dead!!!

A shinigami named Ryuk allows Light to keep using his death note. Light was constantly making risky moves to avoid L from exposing he's Kira. Yes L quickly figured it out on his own. I know that bags the question how Light beat him in the end? There were a few other people that used either the same death note or another one in Misa's case.

Misa also made a deal to have Shinigami's eyes further simplifying the rules to take people out at the cost of loss half her life. L was hands down my favorite character in the story. Yes it did upset me the first time I watched him die!!! For a lot of fans that left the franchise after seeing that moment. L was set up to be the hero to only be among a long list of victims Light killed.

At the start of the story, Light had good intentions with the death note. At a point, the possibilities changed him into a monster. Just when things couldn't get more complex for Light. L had two people up to claim his position effectively being his possible successors. Near and Mello shared a rivalry while going after Light.

Obviously, both of them went about this in vastly different ways. Mello being more of a criminal while Near was more like L himself working with the authorities. Both of them were also among the smartest characters in the story. What sealed Light's fate is a well planned set up by Mello. Yes he did planned on Light taking him out.

Light didn't realize due to how that played out it was a message to Near who was Kira? Not long following Mello's demise was the end for Light. The endings differ between manga and anime versions of the story. It technically gets a bit weirder with the other adaptations. To prevent some of the confusion I'll focus on the two main versions before all that.

In the manga version, second to last chapter Light gets exposed. He tried to get away then Ryuk wrote his name down in the death note to kill him. A year later was revealed in the final chapter. Yes Near does become the next L in the conclusion. Some of the other characters going back to a normal life. A large summary of the story to save a lot of people time what's it's about.

A death note is a book that can manipulate death to a degree. Light himself does a few interesting experiments with that. Most humans can't see shinigamis unless they touch a death note or a piece of the book. The book itself has virtually infinite pages. Also every person killed by the book, their souls goes directly to the shinigami that owns that death note.

Death Note is a rather crazy story that instantly became a classic. Yes I'm also aware many people view it to be overrated. Yes I do see a few areas why they view it that way. Death Note was largely involving detectives trying to caught a murder who used a supernatural method to kill people. I am not even sure if Light's kill count every gotten confirmed or not.

Light can write names down fast enough to quickly kill a lot of criminals is absolutely terrifying. Yes he also killed other detectives through a death note to cover his tracks. He viewed himself as a true hero that's going to save the world. Sure he may lowered some locations crime radius to a degree. At a point, Light became obsessed with control that didn't want to lose.

Death Note I personally felt anime wise was slightly better in it's original Japanese language. No I'm not saying the English Dub was terrible by any means. But it was a huge difference how some characters stands out between language versions. Most of my favorite characters dies in this story. My least favorite always been Misa for a few reasons.

Officially she's the stupidest character according to a databook in the series. I still will say she's written just fine to get the job done. Death Note brings paranoia since you don't know if you're going to die or not? It literately can happen without warning. The default kill method from a death note is heart attacks. Death Note had a lot of complexity that kept things interesting.

Shinigamis look amazing in this franchise. Yes Ryuk always been my favorite shinigami character. I will give a little credit to the Netflix movie adaptation. William Dafoe playing the character was pure genius!!! Despite everything that happened because of a few death notes. Everything else was surprisingly realistic that worked amazingly well.

Death Note is something truly special at it's core. Somehow it made a crime story into one of the greatest things ever!!! The fact we see a previously innocent high school become a monster speaks volumes!!! I agree some additional stuff in the franchise isn't necessary great. I still think sticking with the two original versions goes a long way.

There was creativity through the usage of a death note. Easily among the scariest objects in manga/anime history!!! It may look like a normal notebook it's not at all!!! There was a school in China that banned students that altered their notebooks to look like death notes. Honestly, Death Note was such a concept that shouldn't work this well!!!

Death Note simply brings a rather unique perceptive to a lot of crazy situations. L being the closest thing to Sherlock Holmes in the story. I felt the story was at it's peak when those two were after each other. I did notice some decline following L's death. But it didn't necessary ruin the remainder of the story.

I also felt Death Note helped many people realize life was short. You better start living your lifes now. It blends reality with just enough supernatural elements that came together perfectly. Even considering the author had a planned amount of chapters to be written of the story. I still felt Death Note is a true master piece.

Death Note was simply ahead of it's time. The duo found a way to make notebooks among the scariest things ever!!! Not only that, most of the characters were well written. Shinigamis themselves allowed all of that chaos to happen was rather unexpected. Who ever though a pen would be responsible for ending so many lifes?

The worst part is Light easily could've gotten away with all those murders. If L or his successors didn't pursue going after him. By default, Light never been outside of Japan. In most cases, no signs of his DNA while in Japan around most locations his victims died at. Then you realize one day Ryuk was going to be the one to end him was something he's never going to escape from.

He technically could've gotten away but still end up dead not long following everything. Ryuk himself stated he wasn't willing to wait out Light's possible sentence in prison. Let's be honest, he could've ended Light before Near confronted him as well. Light was a great protagonist that becomes essentially what he originally was against prior.

He ended up becoming a worst monster than most criminals in the world. Death Note was filled with many surprises on the way. But some of the bigger surprises turned many people off. I still could say it's a well written story. At the same time, it does have some problems that prevents Death Note being the perfect story.

For some people, the pacing might be a little too fast more true in the anime version. Some moments are so quickly followed by other moments making it difficult accepting what all just happened? A great example of this was Watari and L's deaths. There's a few occasional light moments just not enough to properly balance the story out.

To be honestly, this is among the darkest manga stories I ever gotten into. Yes that also would include Chainsaw Man and Berserk to name a few. Death Note doesn't get as crazy as those two franchises. Death Note would be the perfect middle line of reality with supernatural aspects. Honestly, this franchise left a mark as permanent as some inks you could get for pens.

There haven't been many franchises similar to it. Death Note successfully brought in exactly what it needed to be a huge success. Yes I could see a possible crossover for Dead by Daylight. To be honest, a few other manga/anime franchises are higher among my most wanted franchises. Death Note forever changed the world in a way most didn't even believe was possible prior to it's existence.

Death Note is a story that kept getting more interesting the further you went. I know we have a great author backed by a great artist. The artist is doing majority of the artwork while occasionally discussing the direction of the story with the author. These two guys brought what their skills to deliver such an amazing story.

In all honestly, Death Note wouldn't been this great if one person was doing the heavy lifting. Unless it were Junji Ito writing the story despite being outside his usual horror manga style. I do think Death Note deserves most of the praise it received. I also think it's a huge inspiration to pop culture as a whole. If there were a horror manga variation of Horror Hall of Frame, it belongs to be in there!!!

Death Note also given us such an iconic rivalry between Light and L. Essentially representing two paths to the same goal. Both wants to be a true hero to save the world from bad people. L still believes in the law while Light became obsessed with control becoming a monster getting his way. Two sides to the same coin I can't be even more direct than that.

This is a franchise that took risks with some that didn't worked out well. For me, some of the follow ups just doesn't compare to the main story. Some even made you question did the team know exactly what was Death Note? Yes I'm directly referencing that L movie among a few others. My best advice is avoid most adaptations as well as a brief Kira killer that ended themselves in the same chapter.

End of the day, Death Note is at it's best with the two original versions. Both are highly regarded as classics I do recommend to people. You may not like everything else that's within the franchise though. As long you stick with the two original versions you're fine. Honestly, it was among the first shows that connected me to my wife.

For that reason, Death Note like The Crow (90s version) movie always had a special place in my heart. It isn't perfect by any means despite a lot of people saying that otherwise. Death Note was just the right kind of something different. Especially when you watch a lot of the same genre anime shows. Eventually you want something different, it could be Death Note who knows right?

My concept of Shaun of the Dead for a chapter (Dead by Daylight)

Hello everyone I'm XboxClown89, look I know a lot of recent blog entries inspired by a particular survey is getting a bit out of hand. Currently this is the last one I planned to write. Shaun of the Dead is a timeless classic that should crossover into Dead by Daylight soon. I hope more people see some of what I see within such a possible future crossover concept.

It's the first entry in Three Flavours Cornetto. Along with Hot Fuzz and The World's End are classified by particular flavored Cornetto ice cream cones. Shaun of the Dead being strawberry, Hot Fuzz representing classico and The World's End oddly being mint. I felt two of these movies could come together for a crossover.

Sadly the most successful among them, Hot Fuzz going to be excluded. It's the only entry not in any shape horror or a scenario that could scare people. I could respect all parties wants to keep it exclusively Shaun of the Dead for a crossover. After all, only Shaun of the Dead shown up in the listing for that survey recently.

I know some might view this being ridiculous. If a movie is made very well then you really can't get enough of it. Shaun of the Dead was a huge love letter to Romero's Dead series. Even the late Romero gave them respect for that comedy horror movie!!! Many comical zombie stuff wouldn't happened if it weren't for this zombie movie!!!

Z Nation, Dead Rising, Zombieland and many more to name here. I will get a few obvious problems out the way. There isn't anyone that could fit the role of the killer from this movie. I do agree Shaun needs to come into the game as a survivor. Especially if the actor reprise the role with voice overs. He's also close friends with Nick Frost who play Ed in the movie.

If he's on board, so will Frost giving us two of the main characters right off the bat. Yes I really would love for Zombie Ed to be a cosmetic skin in the game. Speaking of cosmetics they easily could reference a lot of scenes or characters from the movie. Officially they done an handful of chapters with just one character coming to the game.

More often they do half chapters with a lot of them being licensed. I do think they could work with that angle. I just can't justify a full chapter unless they plan to go even bigger than that. Then I'm on board with this crossover. Shaun of the Dead chapter would make a lot of people happy. I was quite happy to see it in the survey myself.

I know some rather get a few other franchises that actually has much more to pull off. Look I hear ya on that front but Shaun of the Dead is a rather unique comedy horror movie that justifies such a demand. It's a notable factor that led to many zombie franchises. They easily sneak in a couple jokes for fun. If I had to request a particular easter egg joke.

I wanna see Zombie Ed with a controller in his hands. Then he attempts biting towards us referencing a scene. I also wanna see a few cosmetics for Shaun. If they could fit some of the other characters as legacy skin characters. I do think that also would make a lot of people happy. Shaun of the Dead truly brought new life to the zombie genre that was declining in some ways at the time.

Let's be put we are due for a franchise like this coming to the game. It also would help more people that gets turn off by dark stuff to keep on playing the game. Shaun of the Dead should felt like a party you never wanna leave!!! I'm not expecting a map for this crossover. But assuming that could be on the table.

The famous The Winchester Tavern set up with a good amount of outside sections. Of course, you need to be able to go inside the place. Personally it would take a lot appeal away if we get this map. Yet for whatever reason can't actually go inside that place would been such a huge let down!!! Shaun of the Dead also would tie in more to the British fans.

I also wanna see the famous cricket bat get reference as well. It would be hilarious for an idle animation while waiting to get into matches. If Shaun suddenly gets out a record then throws it like a Frisbee. Just like a particular scene in the movie when he threw a few records at a zombie. Another funny idle animation they could do if they allow an zombie to briefly show up.

Shaun getting attacked with an zombie trying to bite him. Suddenly Shaun held the zombie's head up while Ed takes a picture with a camera. Stuff like this I hope may get reference in Dead by Daylight. For me, every little thing this movie does just sticks for a long time. Now that's a testament of a great comedy horror movie!!!

My concepts for Scary Movie chapter (Dead by Daylight)

Hello everyone I'm XboxClown89, I always been a huge fan of Scary Movie franchise for a long time. The original Scary Movie still among my favorite comedy horror movies I ever seen. Each entry with one notable exception has a different theme. But a lot of the same actors reprising their roles. Prior parody movies were in decline not doing well.

The original Scary Movie surprised a lot of people when it hit theaters. Also among my favorite Ghostface movies ever!!! Unfortunately most of them gotten rushed out by the Weinstein brothers. They also done a rather terrible move stealing the franchise from the Wayan brothers. I still found some enjoyment in majority of the movies.

There's a few notable road blocks including Paramount merged with Warner Brothers. Discovery. Scary Movie 2 parodied a lot more movies than the original. I felt this is the most mixed received entry in the franchise. Either you like it to a degree or dislike it altogether. Especially being bias in favor of the other Scary Movies films you like more.

Let's get something straight here there's another parody horror movie called Repossessed. Which is a full parody of The Exorcist with Linda Blair doing a similar character to Regan of that film. I felt how Scary Movie 2 parodied The Exorcist was done better!!! The only entry to have Tim Curry whose an amazing actor!!!

I could discuss Scary Movie 3-5 but the Wayans not going to include anything from those movies in a crossover. Due to respect I actually have to stand with them. I would refuse to buy anything from those movies after what the Weinstein brothers done after they taken the franchise from them. I know they won't receive a penny of this crossover.

It's like how some people felt about a few people found guilty of child stuff that's disgusting. Even if they aren't involve with newer entries, people still heavily against those franchises. I felt it would be a good idea to not use Scary Movie 3-5 for this crossover. Thankfully that leaves us with three Scary Movie films to work with.

My shortest pitch is for the original Scary Movie chapter. They already gotten Ghostface with the exact variation of the mask in the game. All that's missing is Cindy maybe Brenda to show up as survivors. Scary Movie 2 could give us the famous haunted location of that movie as a new map. They have two possible options for who the killer could be?

Hugh Kane who was a parody of Hugh Crain from The Haunting remake. Hanson the guy with a weird disfigured hand gets a parody Charlie's Angels fight scene. The character later came back as Shorthand being a parody of Longlegs. There's a few issues going with Kane. They have a few spirits among the killers.

Also considering we don't actually see much of the ghost in the movie. They are going to have a difficult time making him stand out from the other spirits. Scary Movie (2026 film) focuses on Ghostface again that gets a bit weird. Oh okay much weirder than how it was in the original Scary Movie.

They still have a few possible cosmetics for Cindy and Brenda. They also could be allowed to get the more high Ghostface mask into Dead by Daylight. The same characters that suddenly goes through different situations not possible in the other entries. This actually would help both of them to adapt against the killers.

Scary Movie also could easily sneak in a couple jokes. Just for fun, we need the Wayans' characters as legacy skin characters. Especially getting both of them to reprise their roles with voice overs. Hell getting voice overs in general would truly bring this crossover to life. I do think this crossover going to be better than Scary Movie 4 and 5 respectively.

Yeah we don't wanna talk about Scary Movie 5!!! This is going to be a surprisingly fun franchise to crossover into the game. They easily add in lighter aspects while still occasionally dark stuff. This is a comedy horror movie franchise that's meant to give people a good laugh. Even the controversial stand they had towards people regarding the newest entry.

They also could directly tie in Scary Movie 7. Which both sides could hype the hell up a lot. The fact people got that excited over Dead by Daylight cameo in the movie. The crazier direction from the little we do know. I felt this crossover going to do very well. Cosmetics is going to be such a high point. I already know all parties going wild for this!!!

This might be just me I also would like the googles that allows them to see ghosts. This device a parody of the the glasses in Thirteen Ghosts remake and the googles in Hollow Man 1 respectively. Personally I think some people would love to see those make it into the game. The Wayans being heavily involve is going to key for it's success.

They even could reference A Haunted House series. Which would technically be spiritual sequels to the first two Scary Movie films. More directly Scary Movie 2 since those parody horror movies has the same theme. Scary Movie is also going to make new cosmetics to some franchises still in Dead by Daylight.

Although they would need to get permission from those movie companies first. Assuming they do really opens up the door for this crossover. For me, Scary Movie was a huge YES for so many reasons. Scary Movie would bring so much to the overall experience. Somehow all the insanity comes together in a way that's like the original Scary Movie in a nut shell.

Many concepts of Universal Monsters chapter for Dead by Daylight

Hello everyone I'm XboxClown89, I also had a lot more to say about Universal Monsters. Actually more than majority of my selection on that DbD survey. I also wanna clarify a few things before I reveal many concepts I had for a possible Universal Monsters chapter. Most would go by two versions of Dracula to The Creature Walks Among Us.

Yes there was a few Universal classic horror movies prior to both versions of Dracula. One of which being an earlier movie adaptations of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde and The Phantom of the Opera. Most considers the later movie adaptations that's part of Universal Monsters to be the better versions. Otherwise I'm missing much prior to discuss.

Basically 1931-1956 with thirty classic horror movies. Universal really committed to doing a true cinematic universe years ago. We horror fans owe so much to this horror movie franchise. So many things wouldn't exist otherwise thanks to those movies. This is as retro horror wise I'm willing to go. I do think there's so much potential to make a crossover work incredibly well.

There's a couple recurring monsters everyone knows in the lineup. We have the Wolfman whose a famous werewolf character that's in a few movies. We also have the Creature that represents Frankenstein franchise portion of Universal Monsters. Gill-man whose an merman helped introduced terrors from the water in the genre.

Dracula being among the most essential monsters in Universal Monsters. There's a couple mummies as well as invisible people within the franchise. The Phantom of the Opera is a mysterious figure that plays an piano while wearing a mask. They also have Dr. Jekyll that does transform into Mr. Hyde in a crossover movie.

There's a few comedy horror crossover movies with the comedy duo Abbott and Costello that's part of the franchise. The Bride from Bride of Frankenstein gets an honorable mention. Yes some of these monsters crossed over with each other before Freddy vs. Jason or Alien vs. Predator movies happened. There's a huge variety of species that easily ties into Dead by Daylight.

Universal Monsters is still inspiring a lot of people today in some form. So many franchises is directly inspired like The Monster Squad, Goosebumps, Beetleborgs and many others!!! It's a shame Universal rushed attempting to do a newer take on the concept that quickly died. Sometimes you just can't beat the classics!!!

I also need to say so many great actors launched careers from these horror movies. The list of names is a bit on the long side to go through them all. But every single one in every role left such a massive impact!!! I really felt a lot of them helped made so many aspects of the genre what it is today. I am deeply thankful to every single one of them for that!!!

There's so many possible angles they actually could go with this franchise. I will discuss each possible separate franchise with a few other connected movies that could get involve. At the end I'll discuss the most ambitious take there is doing all of them at once. There's so much horror history to go around. Considering Universal has success with Chucky in the game.

I do think when the time is right they're going to possibly do Universal Monsters. Let's be honest, why the hell not do this crossover would be incredibly stupid. Especially when they have more than the usual amount of content to work with from most franchises they already pulled from. There's a few variations of cosmetics that will go a long way here.

Yes I do think it's worthy enough to become a full chapter with huge success for all parties. Universal Monsters is still heavily being discussed as well as rewatched today. Essentially every movie in the lineup are timeless classics that set up a path for most horror franchises to follow. I do believe so many people would drop whatever they're doing to play anything representing the franchise.

Dracula officially kicked things off with Universal Monsters. I wanna start discussing a possible Dracula chapter. Yes I am prepared to discuss how it differs from Castlevania chapter. There's a few actors that played the character in the franchise. A little fact not everyone knows, they shot two versions of the same movie on the same set.

The two teams took turns making their version of the movie. One of them representing what many calls Spanish Dracula version. This could help tie in more to that culture. There's a few possible vampire characters that could show up. Obviously the main focus is Dracula himself. He wouldn't have the ability to throw fireballs like Castlevania version.

He would have some hypotonic powers to lure in the survivors. I would love to see his coffin being represented in some form. He also can transform into a single bat. I know this may not sound as awesome at first. But he could be given voice overs that sounds like one of the actors that played the character.

Don't go in expecting notably violent finishers. But the possibility for those with some characters differs. They even could play off his Alucard disguise from Son of Dracula movie. Next up actually would be among my most wanted within the franchise Frankenstein!!! Just like Dracula, a few actors played the character in the movies.

In both cases, possible cosmetics representing those actors would be deeply appreciated. This also would include The Bride, Dr. Frankenstein and Igor to name a few characters. Dr. Frankenstein could become a survivor in the game. There were other notable scientists some being related to him in the movies.

Igor would work best as cosmetics in all honestly. Dr. Frankenstein didn't mean anyone harm when he created The Creature. I really would love The Creature notably having electricity going through him. I am hoping they give The Creature some voice overs especially recreating Boris Karloff's voice. Mummies would be a little tricky since there's two mummies in the franchise.

The franchise started with Imhotep played by the late Boris Karloff. The remaining Mummy movies had Kharis played by a few actors with Lon Chaney Jr. being a huge horror star among them. If the first mummy's name sounds familiar it should. The Mummy movie franchise with Brendan Fraser had the character in two of the movies as well as the cartoon show.

A true fact a lot of people doesn't know is majority of these horror characters came from books. But the concept for The Mummy started in the original Mummy movie. So many franchises has mummy characters since that horror movie. Personally it was a rather unique concept no one previously done prior.

Not only that, mummies were supernatural being undead magic users with some similarities to necromancers. In some cases, the actual lore more interesting than the mummies themselves. Here's the big monkey wrench out of the entire lineup. They kept changing whose was the invisible antagonist terrorizing people.

The concept of being invisible is truly terrifying. My first exposure to the concept was a movie called Hollow Man 1. The famous Kevin Bacon movie where he's the invisible antagonist such an underrated classic. I know at first this might not sound scary. Then you start realizing all the terrible stuff one could go if they can't be seen.

We started with a scientist that went mad with the possibilities in his mind. Another man whose brother condemned for murder not responsible for the crime he's accused of. He requested to be given the formula to turn invisible. I also want to point out I'm a huge Vincent Price fan. Of course, Price makes everything he's in something you really gotta watch.

They even done the concept with a woman. Which possibly was inspiration for parts of Marvel's Sue Storm's powers. An agent taken the same formula taking on the Nazis. Another man given the formula that doesn't turn out well. The last entry with the concept was a crossover I mentioned earlier. Some of them wanted revenge taking huge risks.

There's a lot of complexity when you try putting all of this together. I would love to see how they attempt recreating the famous invisible special effects in those classic horror movies. This by itself going to heavily impact the crossover. The Wolf Man who didn't actually start werewolves in the franchise.

Before that was Werewolf of London in 1935. A few years prior but The Wolf Man is notably more popular. He's a famous werewolf character played by the late Lon Chaney Jr. being the most recurring horror icon in the same role. Before a lot of actors done that, there was Lon Chaney Jr. with The Wolf Man.

For some reason, The Wolf Man kept getting movie remakes. I know the original movie was a major inspiration to the concept. Some people don't even realize how popular werewolves are today? A lot of people wants an werewolf among the killers in Dead by Daylight. The closest thing we have to that is Dracula's wolf form.

I should point out there's also She-Wolf of London. But no actual werewolf was in the movie. The actual concept more like Psycho 2 funny enough. Where someone goes out their way to make someone else insane. There's a little chance they might reference the movie. Otherwise, the main focus is going to be The Wolf Man hands down!!!

Obviously they want a full werewolf in the game!!! I do think they could do a lot with the character. They could give something silver that can't directly be used to kill him. But it would prevent the creature going after that for a little while. Silver being the one thing that can kill him. I always welcome killers with claws in that game.

The Phantom of the Opera had an incident that mess up his face. Some versions being notably worst than in this movie. He's more of a stalker around a particular location. Occasionally he's playing the piano for a good while. The concept heavily presented in pop culture over the years. To me, he's the least dangerous among the monsters for a few reasons.

It would be nice if a piano playing by itself showed up during matches. When he's chasing the survivors that suddenly affects the piano to make things more intense!!! I don't think there's much they could do than half a chapter route being the best. A cosmetics collection could possibly do a little better. But I still think the character deserves a little more respect.

Gill-man was among the last monsters introduced in Universal Monsters franchise. Some consider the concept a precursor to the original Jaws movie. A merman that stalks people close by the water. This helped gotten more people interested in several aspects of the concept. To me, this was among the most unexpected within Universal Monsters movies.

You might've noticed I haven't mentioned any possible locations for maps yet. To be honest, it vastly differs which portion of the franchise they're using? There's also the possibility to not include any maps at all. Which would be fine with so much other stuff they possibly get into Dead by Daylight. Going back to the comedy crossover movies, the comedy duo would be the survivors.

Abbott and Costello starred in a couple crossover related movies. Four of them with most of the monsters you expected to see. The Creature, The Wolf Man, an invisible man, Klaris (mummy) not Kharis to clarify and Mr. Hyde respectively. Dr. Jekyll was a scientist that made a formula. Which caused him to transform into Mr. Hyde whose essentially his dark side.

Yes there's some amazing characters inspired by Mr. Hyde like Marvel's Hulk. Also was direct inspiration for The Nutty Professor franchise including Eddie Murphy films. This brought in revealing a person's inter self to people. Being among the most realistic forms of fears represented in this franchise. Despite it took a formula to cause a transformation being the fictional aspect.

Also assuming Wednesday chapter with Tyler Galpin as the killer a possibility. Some people might like the idea of more than one Hyde in the game. Especially in a few ways the two differs going to make rather interesting. I would be quite interested in seeing Mr. Hyde hunting the survivors. I personally wanna see the character wear the hat with the iconic sinister grin on his face!!!

These particular crossover movies brought in humor while maintaining some essential horror elements. Another possible way to view it is there's a reason why Seed of Chucky failed to capture that? Also for people that isn't into horror could find something to like from those crossover movies. I do think a lot of people could enjoy this portion of the franchise crossing over as well.

An handful of sequels have more than one monsters from the other movies. Yes that matters since it easily adds more fuel to the fire!!! It's difficult to pick just one survivor outside that logic. Most likely they pull as many classic horror monsters as possible. I hope we may get the first multiple killers chapter.

Yes there's a very huge chance they could be doing that here. They easily could break up the crossover into a few chapters with plenty of content to justify that route. Although that heavily would depend if the demand for it stays big enough or not? The most ambitious route is Universal Monsters chapter representing as close to everything as possible.

We're talking about thirty horror movies to pull from. A lot of iconic characters with several versions. Several related concept characters mostly Invisible Man portion of the franchise. Representing so many great horror actors that shaped the entire genre as a whole. Cosmetics easily be through the roof with plenty possible sick, cool ideas.

Plenty fan service to really bring in a lot of people at a scary fast rate. Especially big horror fans that would absolutely love this crossover to happen. Universal Monsters is something truly special to all of us. Even if you don't necessary like some or all the movies. You should still give respects to them for so many reasons.

Legacy skin cosmetics going to be in huge demand. If they could get in some of the most rememberable songs from the franchise. This would be a massive slam dunk!!! The chase songs heavily be inspired by some of those songs. If they could recreate any of those actors while voicing the monsters. I do think this should be easily among their most successful crossovers to date.

This has among the highest potential for success in Dead by Daylight. You literately have everything to make it into something truly unforgettable. Especially if Universal allows them to go the full distance with the concept. If it's not obvious by now this was a huge YES for me. We would be getting something old yet held up insanely well to time!!!

I also think Universal Monsters is going to vastly change the game. In a rather unique way that could help other crossovers work better than prior to the crossover. I felt that's the true strength of this crossover. We're placing bricks for some possible franchises that just isn't possible yet. This would really help speed up the process for some of those more ambitious crossovers that could happen.

I really do believe this crossover needs to happen soon. This would be a great one for their fifteen anniversary or possibly their twentieth anniversary at the latest. A lot of people wants the team go bigger on critical anniversaries. What's bigger than Universal Monsters in it's entirely? This would easily introduce a lot of people to the franchise as well.

Directly becoming among the best methods to properly get into the franchise. Universal Monsters might be a require taste for some people that's not into several aspects of retro horror movies. We're going even further back than what most be used to rewatching as retro horror movies. I'm also aware some of these characters a lot of people won't fully know or understand well enough.

Yes that would affect if they could get into the franchise or not. But if they give some of the movies a chance. Eventually they could find something they enjoy a lot within em. This in itself is what a true successful cinema universe looks like!!! All of it before CGI or more recently AI usage was a thing!!! Also back then it was acting over how pretty someone looks as it is today.

There's so many possible angles for moris. Especially if they do more than one monster for this crossover. In fact, if they do all the main monsters that's going to be literately an entire years worth of moris!!! Just in this one licensed chapter alone is mind blowing!!! I do think the team going to get very creative with the moris.

I also think they would make the game classic black & white. Yes I know a lot of people don't like that style. There was a time before color appeared in movies and shows respectively. I actually felt a lot of them stands out more in black & white. For me, it plays more into the atmosphere of these horror movies.

I also understand they chose to not include that style into Dead by Daylight as well. Universal Monsters at it's core going to be among the most ambitious works they ever done!!! Especially trying to nail the iconic aspects the fans still remembered heavily today. I really can't think of a big enough negative that could ruin the crossover either.

My concept of Darkstalkers chapter for Dead by Daylight

Hello everyone I'm XboxClown89, I wanted to go a little further when I discussed Darkstalkers for an DbD survey. Being a huge fan of the franchise a long time since Darkstalkers: Resurrection back in 2013. For me it would mean a lot for a crossover to happen soon.

There's a lot of rememberable characters being an fighting game franchise. Each one representing a species with their unique styles. Of course, I really gotta mention the amazing soundtracks these fighting games has. Sure some could argue there's a notable light aspects. There are some rather dark stuff in this franchise though even among some of the what if possibilities.

I always felt Darkstalkers walked the perfect middle ground on what's light to what's dark honestly. There's plenty possible locations that could be chosen as a new map for Dead by Daylight. Some of which could tie in more than the team realizes. Considering it is an fighting game franchise, it makes picking an survivor difficult.

I kept coming back to Baby Bonnie Hood. She's an hunter that hunts the other characters. The only real possible issue is if she's old enough to be selected as a survivor. If she's not then I would have to go with Donovan whose an dhampir. Whose accompanied by a little girl named Anita. In a particular Darkstalkers game compilation revealed What If Donovan gave in to the darkness?

Like Baby Bonnie Hood also an hunter targeting evil beings. Although I also would love a possible angle for Jon Talbain to be the survivor. He's the famous werewolf character that's skilled in combat. I do understand they might remove or prevent the character becoming an werewolf. If he were to get chosen as a survivor.

A lot of the other characters differ in power scaling that does reach cosmic levels. Which brings me to my top two choices for the killer. Assuming they wanna do an full chapter route with the franchise. Pyron is an alien that was the original main antagonist of the franchise. He's also the main antagonist in the terrible Darkstalkers cartoon show we don't talk about that!!!

Pyron is essentially a cosmic living flame that does include shape shifting to a degree. Jedah from Vampire Savior 1 aka Darkstalkers 3 is the main antagonist in later portions of the franchise. He's actually one of three demon kings that rules the afterlife. He found Morrigan's missing piece of her soul now going by the name Lilith.

Pyron wants to rule while Jedah attempted to create a new reality in a rather mess up way. The famous stage with a mess up giant baby in the background. Which might've inspired the baby portion of Resident Evil Village. This also could work well as an half chapter. Mostly likely going for the good characters joining the survivors side.

I do think Pyron could differ from Dracula in a few ways within the game play. Jedah could be given projectiles to throw at the survivors. They could recreate some of their moves but in a way that better fits in Dead by Daylight. I do think both could deliver some sick moris. Usually Capcom uses the franchise as cosmetics for several of their franchises over the years.

This by itself could get rather interesting with many possible angles. Darkstalkers easily tie into many aspects of Dead by Daylight. Assuming Capcom goes bigger than expected with this crossover. It may not revive the franchise but there's still some life left to somehow continue forward. Darkstalkers would deliver a lot on the cosmetics alone.

Recently I had a great idea for a possible legacy skin with Bishamon skin for The Oni. Both being wrathful, savage warriors that slaughters their enemies. Both so happen to be wielding swords with the club might get change out for the monk's staff. What really would be awesome is if they choose add in his theme song during using the secondary weapon feature.

I also could see an female survivor dress up as Baby Bonnie Hood during matches. The actual outfits among the characters could add much more than what many people are expecting. Darkstalkers would be a backup plan option if Supernatural or Universal Monsters doesn't happen. Not only that, the lore could be interesting as well.

Darkstalkers having an intro for either chapter design they go with could be amazing!!! Especially if Capcom sent some of their workers over to make sure the animation. Just like those classic horror fighting games from the 90s. For me, this was a huge YES despite some possible issues. Just trying to imagine either Pyron or Jedah meeting with The Entity is interesting in itself.

Darkstalkers may not be a huge fighting game franchise in a few ways. But it's still among the most consistent I ever played!!! I'm always happy to see some of the characters come back in some form. It's a real shame Capcom went big on this franchise in a rather unexpected time. Ever since then they don't bother reviving the franchise for a lot of people that really wants the franchise back including myself.

Sure there's some comical aspects to the animation. In all honestly, some of those coming into Dead by Daylight would be a nice touch. For example, you're waiting to get into a match. Would it be nice if those characters say or do something rather unexpected in a good way? This would be a great reason to go for this fighting game franchise.

I felt there's a little something most people could enjoy about Darkstalkers. I really can't say that about many fighting game franchises either. Darkstalkers would truly bring some stuff surprisingly lacking to a degree in Dead by Daylight. This crossover could led to more future crossovers. Of course, it's success could lead to more Capcom franchises joining the game soon.

Darkstalkers would get a lot of people to play Dead by Daylight. Especially for many people that never thought it could happen for many reasons. Considering they did list the franchise in a very long listing on a survey. Some members of the team must be quite familiar with the franchise. I do hope some of them speaks out supporting this franchise!!!

Don't go in like so many franchises they went for previously when Darkstalkers shows up. No go in expecting a surprisingly great time playing with other people. I always felt that's the true magic of the franchise. There's an uniqueness that easily separated the franchise from other fighting game franchises. Like Vampire Savior with both it's updated versions differs a lot from majority of them.

Like Killer Instinct series, there's a very brief pause when a character loss. Then the match continues with a few notable mechanics that affect the bigger moves. They actually can go all the way to max 99 meters I'm not kidding!!! There's also a secret ending that's removed from Capcom Fighting Collection 1.

Darkstalkers has so many secrets that kept the games interesting. Yes that would involve some of it's secret characters like Shadow & Marionette respectively. Shadow will start with whoever gotten randomly selected. Then when you win, you automatically play as your opponent you defeated. Marionette is more mirror matches for an entire run except bonus matches.

Just imagine if either of those somehow could be recreated in Dead by Daylight? I doubt they would go with Lord Raptor hunting down the survivors lol. Although I could see Capcom making a deal with a band to do a composite crossover look for the character. Possibly Ice Nine Kills who recently done a collaboration with Dead by Daylight who are huge horror fans.

Darkstalkers is underrated for the fighting game genre especially compared against Street Fighter. But it was among the first horror inspired fighting game franchise. Yeah there's a few indie fighting games similar to the franchise to a degree. I do think Capcom could make a lot of money from the right moves with this crossover.

Some cosmetics could be based on Anita. They also could add in voice overs just not sure which direction Capcom would go? I'm assuming they might stick with Japanese. The franchise is a bit weird when it comes to English dub. Some versions has characters not sounding how they suppose. Very true with the cartoon show that even made the most bad ass characters into a joke!!!

I personally would love the train from a stage that's freaky as hell. In some form appear within Dead by Daylight. I should mention there's cosmetics that's small survivors or killers could wore during matches. Some cosmetics also be hanged around hooks. Cosmetics are going to be among it's strongest aspects. I wouldn't went this big with Darkstalkers if I really didn't believe it couldn't do wonders.

Darkstalkers also could bring in those arcade cabinets that's either based on the actual games or characters. Of course, I just referenced Darkstalkers: Resurrection with a lot of it's paid DLC that's virtually character theme arcade cabinets. I really would love to see some of those come into Dead by Daylight as well.

At it's core, everything lines up perfectly with Dead by Daylight. Capcom being on board could do so much for the franchise. In all honestly, if this somehow convinced them to bring back the franchise good I'm glad it happened!!! They also could give weapon cosmetics to the killers that's not licensed. I know that's a bit risky to do but could blow some people's minds if done just right!!!

They also could easily hid in some easter eggs to add more surprising fun. When you aren't playing the game in other modes you still could find some enjoyment. This is exactly why I love this franchise so much!!! Even the little things they do goes a rather long way with people. I also believe Darkstalkers going to easily tie in with the upcoming zombies mode.

Most likely going to add in Lord Raptor as a possible killer. He's also a little weird regarding the first Darkstalkers game region wise. Most characters you play as stays the same which species they are. However in his case, depending on which region version you're playing. Either he is classified as a zombie or as a ghoul.

Officially he's an ghoul within the franchise. He also serves another demon king as shown in one of his endings. Darkstalkers could tie in any mode Dead by Daylight has. I could see them giving Nemesis a Victor skin. They easily could swap out tentacle for Victor shocking people to a degree. The more I'm writing this entry the more I realize how much I truly want this crossover to happen!!!
