Oxxidation posted:It's one more thing that the trailer tells you outright. "He comes back. He always does. We have a place for him." This all makes sense. But what was up with the five dead kids in the Foxy minigame? When exactly does that minigame take place? Another thought that occurs is how he managed to dismantle each of the animatronics: by taking advantage of the blind spot. The back rooms were invisible to the animatronics, hence the error when you attempt to follow him. He simply put on a Freddy mask, lured the animatronics towards a back room, then struck from behind when they became confused by him entering a room they couldn't actually see. This, of course, let the spirits of the children loose...

hemale in pain posted:I'm on like Chapter 11 of Evil Within and I'm wodering is there a story behind why the game has so many stealth elements but pretty much no purpose behind them? There's a couple of segment where you can sneak but 99% of the time you're just in a corridor shooting guys, but there's still stuff to hide in scattered about. Speaking of this, does that mean that the terrible stealth section with the hiding in lockers in the intro doesn't last long? I picked it up yesterday and pretty much got to it and went, "Oh boy, THIS." and turned it off.

Leper Residue posted:So I"m hankering for some more old school/traditional type horror and was eyeing up Siren Blood Curse. It's supposed to be good right? I figured that or Fatal Frame 3, but I've never been able to bring myself to finish the first 2. I just played Parasite Eve and Dino Crisis. Parasite Eve was okay, but the time bar based combat gets rote and you can make any gun into an unstoppable murder machine by the midpoint of the game. Dino Crisis is a really good horror game, as the monsters will show up out of nowhere and wreck your poo poo. Trying to shoot down a charging velociraptor is an exercise in futility, which you should avoid wherever possible anyway because there's hardly any ammo on the island.

He's probably earning a shitload from games that are quick and easy to make but still high quality. As long as Scott doesn't get burned out on the concept, it'd be kind of silly for him not to keep churning them out. If nothing else he could just start a new arc with a different story/setting/antagonist.

Really disappointed in the direction they took with Tokyo Twilight Ghost Hunters. It's based on a PC98 game that was kind of like clock tower with RPG battles but this new one is a real time strategy or something. No thank you. e: Wrong thread although still related. al-azad fucked around with this message at 10:01 on Mar 6, 2015 |

Rush_shirt posted:I asked in the chat, but maybe this thread would be better: is anyone else playing White Night? I've been enjoying it so far, despite some frustrating cheap deaths. I played it for a bit, it's not bad, but nothing about it really grabs me. The art style is kind of cool but beyond that it hasn't really been scary or anything, even with that mother ghost. I even let her catch me to see what would happen and was just like 'eh whatever.' I'll probably go back to finish it eventually but it's pretty low on the backlog list. Edit: I do agree I appreciate the camera angles though. I didn't realize how much I missed those until I played that and started playing Fatal Frame 3.

Torture porn is a bleak and depressing subsection of body horror, so I'd say yes they are. It's also what nearly every horror series becomes after a while, even if it didn't start that way, since being gratuitous is easier than building tension.

Niggurath posted:I don't know why but every time I've seen someone mention this game in the thread, I've thought they were talking about the Korean horror game 'White Day' and I was super surprised so many people were suddenly playing that. But White Night looks like it could be cool though what in it constitutes a 'cheap death'? Sometimes a ghost will be waiting for you right in the shadows, and by the time you realize it, it's too late. Honestly, it struck me as the perfect Niggurath LP. I was thinking I might want to get in on an LP for it as well. It's short enough where you can master getting all the extra content and secrets.

Unlike say Hostel which is... gross. That movie is gross. That's a really fine hair to split. The Saw movies are still very much about the spectacle of watching people die in a horrible and elaborate manner. Just because it fetishizes the mechanisms rather than the gore doesn't make that any less true. Skippy McPants fucked around with this message at 06:46 on Mar 7, 2015 |

RightClickSaveAs posted:I think of the Saw movies as thrillers with a gimmick. Especially the first one, it has a lot more in common with Seven and other psychological thrillers than an outright horror film. Its just that as the series blew up, the focus started to be more on the traps and finding new ways to kill or almost kill people. The first Saw is absolutely a psychological thriller. I've shown it to people who only knew of the series via the sequels, and they've been surprised at how taught and engaging it is. I honestly wish they'd focussed on that side of things, rather than going down the 'Rube Goldberg meets Hellraiser' route they eventually went.

Saw kind of went to poo poo as soon as John died. That was the point they should have ended the series but instead they went with the protege who didn't get what the original Jigsaw was trying to do route which was an excuse for random torture porn.
