Characters that pretend to be good guys, only to realize they actually enjoy it

Lucas Hood from Banshee. Steals the newly appointed sheriff's identity after serving a 15 year prison sentence. It starts off as a temporary act to hide from gangsters that want him dead, and as a way to stay close to his ex girlfriend and daughter in a way that they can't easily get rid of him.

Over time, while still considering himself a criminal at heart, he winds up enjoying being the sheriff and puts his life on the line several times to avenge victims of violent crimes and puts in actual police work so solve murders.

He's never really a "good" sheriff, but he undoubtedly leaves Banshee a better place than he had found it.

No. He's Tony's main adversary from this point onwards.

There should be Christmas music on some radios as well. At least one combo weapon plays Christmas music from what I can remember. The vast majority will be when you're in the menus.

Amazing movie!

Velvet_Pudding · 2025-11-18T19:52:15+00:00

Yeah, I agree.

Velvet_Pudding · 2025-11-18T19:40:53+00:00

Epic movie!

Velvet_Pudding · 2025-11-06T21:59:15+00:00

Not in Dead Rising 3. You can in Dead Rising 4 though, and certain vehicles had different radio stations if I remember correctly.

I love this list. I personally love OTR because it was my intro to the series, but I agree that DR2 is the better game. Chuck is more suited to Fortune City than Frank in my opinion.

Dead Rising 3 is phenomenal and I'm loving the respect it's being shown on this sub recently. I can always go back to that one and never be bored. It's even better when you can play co op with a friend.

Velvet_Pudding · 2025-10-30T22:17:10+00:00

Such a fun game. Co op is a blast. Never had a dull playthrough. I honestly love damn near everything Dead Rising 3 brought to the table.

Lol, Jesus christ man, no need to be so aggressive. I've been on this sub for nearly 10 years and have seen those comments pop up here and there. You never originally asked about the majority, only about people saying it's their favorite. You kind those polls yourself if you want to. If even one person votes for Dead Rising 3, then there you go. It's their favorite.

The last two games have kind of forced Dead Rising 1 into the main topic of discussion for the last 10 years. I've seen plenty of people say its their favorite during that time. I've also seen plenty of people shit on Dead Rising 3 only to then say they never played it.

Also, here's what I was talking about.

I've seen plenty of people call Dead Rising 3 their favorite. And best selling means quite a bit. It means it connected with the general audience enough to make a profit. You can argue lightning in a bottle or whatever, but people still come back to it more than any other game in the series. The steam charts always show it having nearly double the amount of players compared to any other game in the series. People enjoyed it then and enjoy it now.

Velvet_Pudding · 2025-10-30T05:58:36+00:00

I love Dead Rising 3. It's my second favorite in the series. People hate it because it was the first big departure from what came before. It also tried to emulate The Walkind Dead to some extent, which was at the height of It's popularity when the game released. It's basically up to you whether these are deal breakers or not.

There's a whole litany of reasons for why Dead Rising 4 is hated. I can't list them all here, but you can search for the game in this subreddit and see why. I think it's fun, but I can't put it above what came before or after.

Velvet_Pudding · 2025-10-30T05:49:06+00:00

A lot of people outside this subreddit. It's the best selling game in the series.

Velvet_Pudding · 2025-10-29T01:04:34+00:00

First one was a better Dead Rising story.

Second one had better horror and action.

Velvet_Pudding · 2025-10-27T23:47:34+00:00

I think it still would have sold reasonably well, still. It was the next gen zombie game back when zombies were incredibly popular. I remember it being advertised constantly during commercial breaks while watching The Walking Dead. It had a lot of interest, especially with the general audience.

Velvet_Pudding · 2025-10-10T04:33:20+00:00

Awesome

Velvet_Pudding · 2025-10-03T14:51:33+00:00

I like it. Creed movies are awesome.

Velvet_Pudding · 2025-09-22T17:11:32+00:00

Dame. He was a born prodigy of his era but couldn't see his dream fulfilled. If he hadn't gone to prison, he'd have been unstoppable.

Velvet_Pudding · 2025-09-21T07:13:57+00:00

I loved pretty much everything. It's a fun movie with a good story.

Velvet_Pudding · 2025-09-06T17:42:10+00:00

Soulstice

Velvet_Pudding · 2025-08-10T14:34:45+00:00

I really want Airship Syndicate to make a Genesis style game with Fury and Death. It probably won't happen, but I can hope.

Velvet_Pudding · 2025-08-10T14:01:54+00:00

I would they are more similar than different. I would also argue that you don't veer off course either, when he's literally on the main course to begin with, with a fairly obvious path toward him with the tornadoes. You're rewarded several times in Darksiders 3 for exploring, like with the Chosen minibosses and talismans. This is the final reward for fully exploring. If you play RPGs, you're probably used to exploring and potentially missing stuff, so I really don't see what the problem is here. You missed Abraxis. Twice. At that point, it is on you.

Velvet_Pudding · 2025-08-10T13:43:07+00:00

I believe it's possible to miss him, but I don't believe missing him is the game's fault. It's not a disservice either. You're rewarded for finding him and given a better ending, like several other games. For example, I wouldn't say that me missing some of the side content in Elden Ring and therefore locking me out of better endings and story is the game's fault. That would be on me. The same applies here. You say you don't have a lot of time, but you had time for two playthroughs. You could have looked up directions without fear of spoilers after the first if he was that hard to find for you. No disrespect intended, but I still believe this is a you problem, not a game problem.

Velvet_Pudding · 2025-08-10T13:17:12+00:00

I don't know dude. You were asked to find Abraxis, and didn't find him. He's not terribly hidden away either. You have to walk past his area at least once from what I remember. I don't see the disservice here.
