This comic from VG Cats sums up one of the biggest problems we here at the ZRC had with the Dead Rising Case Zero prequel: it just doesn’t work from a dramatic perspective. You’re ostensibly playing as a loving father trying to keep his daughter alive, and yet the game also pushes you to conduct gruesome, time-wasting experiments upon the unfortunate local population of Differently Animated.

Somehow it just feels insincere when one minute your objective is to obtain the life-saving drug Zombrex, and the next minute you’re detoured from obtaining said drug to construct a beer helmet.

So kudos to VG Cats for putting this criticism into the form of a humorous comic. Such art enlightens us all.
