Dead Rising Remaster Making Controversial Psychopath Change
All jokes aside, you all are actually correct. It was because the development of this remaster was outsourced to China (Neobards is a company in Hong Kong.) So, removal of the erotica scoring system/perverted content, Larry Chiang being changed to a white guy, and removing Cliff's Vietnam War/Filthy communist dialogues makes so much sense now. All these things are illegal in China!!! Those who produce, disseminate, or sell “obscene materials” could be jailed for life in China, according to the country’s criminal law. So pervy stuff had to go. Larry Chiang the butcher was an unflattering Chinese stereotype so they had to change him to a white Larry The Butcher. And badmouthing communism in China is a quick way to earn a free vacation stay at their famous Reeducation Camps (Internment Camps) so Cliff's filthy communist lines and Vietnam War references had to go as well. So yeah, communist china is the audience they were going for.
