Has Agony been confirmed as another run-and-hideathon? I saw some preview footage a month or two back and it was starting to look more like Bioshock, letting you possess demons and toss around firebombs.

Relin posted:i wasn't aware there was an over saturation of sexually violent games that have been released recently Not really, I mean inside the game itself. In Agony's case, when every room is made up of flesh and blood and everything is some kinda of deformed teethvagina demon, it all blends together and becomes quite mundane and same-y. There's no subtlety and with nothing to contrast the gore and repulsive stuff against, it just ends up feeling less shocking than they're going for.

Imagine the walkthroughs people will make for Agony. After the bleeding nipple demon, take a left. If you see a guy laying in his own piss, you've gone too far. Around there should be the collectible artifact of scrotum tearing.

After this you should be entering the Valley of Viscera, pass the dozens of sliced up titties and walk through the archway that looks like a giant hemorrhoidal rear end in a top hat, be sure to watch for the patrolling teethvaginafaces as well.

Oh yeah and continually making GBS threads on Outlast 2 some more, your guy's wife is pretty much just a plot item the entire game through that's also constantly bombarded with rapey poo poo, first it's finding her, you do so in a creeeeepy chapel where the spooooky hick cultists and their high chief rapemaster "papa" cult leader are talking about how they're "inspecting" her the entire way as you're trying to take the goofy rear end route through the place since the front doors to the room are locked, then it's "Oh no she's somehow magic pregnant" literally because she isn't when the game starts and then suddenly she's already getting big rear end stomach, also your guy asks her what happened/what did they do and she gets all chokey and does the "I just can't" thing, then it's finding her again because immediately after that she gets kidnapped by the second backwoods rapecult "heretics", some other junk happens, you get to the ending, she gives the fastest birth you've ever seen but it's not-actually-birth or something because it was all

oldpainless posted:It's actually gotten lots of really good reviews That's never been much of a real seal of quality. Like I'm trying to remember who, one of the bigger sites reviews for it said the same thing they all say, the chases, the cornfield, this and that, then blurts out this big rear end paragraph of all these things wrong, then gives it like an 8.5 or something. Kaboom Dragoon posted:Whoever wrote the notes for Outlast 2, I'm pretty sure they wrote them one-handed because holy poo poo. Also yeah the notes this time are pretty much all one of two things, either really long and uninteresting "This is 'scripture' and whatever of our very unique christian cult" or it's "I dreamed of the babies and slitting their throats and I got so worked up, I woke up soaked in my own jizz" and not even exaggerating, both on the content of the notes or how that's virtually all of them just worded different. Actually poo poo wait, I forgot a third one, women talking about how they're ready to die or whatever else to kill their definitely-the-antichrist-this-time babies which mostly come from rapelord supreme "papa" cult leader.

I wish there were any devs mature enough to properly use the subject matter to scare the poo poo out of male gamers instead of just the standard "rape is bad so our bad guys rape, rape rape rape" that so much media does.

DeathChicken posted:The Darkness was shockingly great in general. Did the sequel remotely live up to it? Never played I enjoyed it more. The combat in the first game always felt a little anemic. It's a bit punchier in the second game. The art style looks a lot better too. Mike Patton's just as good in each game though, not that they could replace him after the first game.

The scenes in Outlast 2 with those guys who scream and gibber really loudly as they chase you are very effective but I'm definitely not the target audience for games like this. I've got enough stress in my life, don't need more in my relaxation time.

I remember liking the co-op in The Darkness. Either one or two? I don't remember. It was the little things that really stuck out in those games, like watching all of To Kill A Mockingbird.

Faster gunplay and more emphasis on just wrecking poo poo as a demon mob-boss who bites off dicks with your monster arms.

Yardbomb posted:Dishonored did this really well imo, since the Abbey were being used by High Overseer Campbell as another arm to cow people during the big upheaval trying to happen in the first game. Good world building, but I never felt like I couldn't just blink around and suffocate them to sleep or snap their necks as Corvo. I'm talking about making something like that the main enemy where you had to make sure you didn't commit any sins or associate with the wrong people without strict punishment coming your way. Maybe even make it something like Thief where you can still hide and sneak past problems, but they can easily kill you if caught and maybe you get tangled in rival occult powers all the same even if you're trying to be a strict good sheep of the flock or something.

So Capcom isn't happy with RE7 getting 3.5 million in sales. With that and Sega not being happy with Alien's respectable numbers what's up with publishers over expecting horror sales?

I think it's a bit of a spurious connection -- that it's closer to 'Japanese companies don't quite understand returns on AAA games' than 'publishers don't understand horror.'

Doesn't the same thing happen with blockbuster films these days? "Oh, it's ONLY dozens of millions of dollars, thus a failure."  RE7 is amazing, doesn't rely on rape for a plot device, and if Jack Baker isn't in the next Marvel vs Capcom I will be super-bummed.

Most likely there's way too much executive bloat at Capcom and they expected billions unrealistically, especially when they paid money to get denuvo into the game pointlessly.

The Darkness was also pretty unique in being a fairly early sandbox FPS if I remember correctly. It also had a ton of cool poo poo like two full classic movies (I remember To Kill a Mockingbird was one of them) that you could sit down and watch from start to finish if you really wanted to, and the phone numbers you could dial from payphones (some of which got you bonus stuff).

Prey owns btw. It is some straight up System Shock, right down to the mention of 'psi hypos' and the INCREDIBLY LOUD techno music.

It just played really well and was a a fun shooter. I'm really looking forward to Prey. I'm sad about Prey 2, but I am liking the idea of a retro-looking System Shock 2 rip-off, so I'm super down.
