How long will it take for some madman to beat the custom night with every animatronic active? 24 hours? 12 hours? Also really interested to see what "Trash and the Gang" does

The whole lore vid thing reminds me of when 1 2 3 Slaughter Me Street came out and there was this 1 random dude on youtube who kept trying to put up lore vids over it with stuff like "guys is there a hidden puppet in the trailer? who is it, what does it mean??" and it's like nobody cares dude, nobody gives a poo poo about 1 2 3 slaughter me street, give it up.

I tried to like 123 Slaughterme Street(I literally just figured out that 'slaughter me' is supposed to sound like 'sesame' and I'm angry now) so hard but the second game is just such a terrible Slender clone(when Alice Wants To Play is a better version of your game, something is very wrong) and the first game is just really loving weird. Bad weird. The weird where the gameplay doesn't seem to have coherent rules and every map looks exactly the same. Plus the plot is extremely simple, the second one is just a prequel. "Dude makes sesame street puppets. Puppets are evil or he's just crazy. Dude kills his daughter and plays hide and seek with demons until the police show up. He runs away and hides in an abandoned building. Then he plays Red Light-Green Light with demons until they trap him in the basement and burn him alive." how do you make more than a five minute video out of that?

It's a shame 1 2 3 Slaughterme Street wasn't better because I liked the monster puppet designs, they were fun. There's a FNaF-heavy YouTuber/streamer named Dawko who is taking on Cawthon's 50/20 challenge mode: if he can eventually beat it Cawthon will do an interview on Dawko's podcast, but if Dawko gives up he has to make a fan game where he bows down to Cawthon's superior programing skills. Keep in mind this is all in good fun and no matter what happens it's probably going to end up in a big charity donation via Dawko's streams; Cawthon made a playable "FANF 7" for a silly video already. FNaF isn't quite the origin of "L O R E" and it's hardly a nuanced story but I think it does a far better job about providing just enough information to keep people guessing as opposed to leaning on people going hog wild with ideas. Hello Neighbor and Bendy don't feel nearly as cohesive or well-planned and seemed to let streamers and fans push the story direction along for them, whereas at least some of FNaF's core ideas were there from the get-go.

I think the origin of 'lore' as we know it probably came about because of Dark Souls. Yeah, Demon's Souls did the whole 'inferring world/story details from item descriptions and context clues' first, but it flew under the radar until Dark Souls came along. And then FNaF came along and codified the concept, leading us to where we are today, knee-deep in lovely Youtube channels that promise to 'explain' every miniscule facet of a work, no matter how obvious it appears at first glance.

the benefit i'll always give the fnaf games is that the dev actually seems to try and make all of his games play in a sorta unique way compared to the others and the weird 'lore' inference crap is just kinda there in the background and not the focus

It'd be interesting to identify the necessary informational elements to trigger and secure that "Deep Lore" impression and response. It's not as simple as just leaving disconnected bits of info out there, at least if you have any sort of plan going.

You have to go back in time to stop a serial killer who murdered his family. But wait, you are the serial killer. But wait, it was all in your head and you're in a mental asylum. But wait, the asylum was actually a simulation created by scientists to study your moral actions. But wait, it's because you're Hitler's disembodied brain recovered from an alternate reality. But wait, it turns out the scientists need Hitler to live in order to save the world from a future catastrophic event. But wait, you kill yourself at the end thus dooming the world. But wait, it turns out that was only an audiolog from one of many tangent Hitler brains because this experiment has been repeated countless times. But wait, you are also gay.

al-azad posted:It’s revealed in the end you’re just a guy in an asylum and everything was in your head. That's too easy, it has to get D levels of batshit. Make it so you're listening in on transmissions through the radio and the transmissions are actually from you, in the future trying to warn yourself not to start the horror that you encounter throughout the game but the messages are indecipherable so you end up doing it anyway. The game ends by you being locked in a dark room with a lone radio as something is banging on the door trying to get in as you start broadcasting to yourself in the past. New Game + has you going through the game again trying to actually save yourself. Boom instant classic.

So when Agony comes out at the end of the month, can someone just spoil the hell out of it for me? I just want to know what happens and really don't feel like spending money on what looks like a body horror walk thru hell simulator. That said, Scorn looks good.

Wait, which one is which? Scorn is the thing that looks like a little bit 2006 Prey mixed with Hellblade while Agony's the shameful 2018 equivilent of DOOM?

Seems like a lot of indie projects these days use depth-of-field tricks to make the visuals look more expensive. I'm not complaining, I think it looks neat, but you see that in both Scorn and Agony.

Scorn is where you defile yourself to the bio-mechanical horrors of H.R. Giger. Agony is where you violate yourself to demon tits.

What we've seen of the actual pathologic 2 has a physical manifestation of the disease lock you in a dark building full of the dead add dying and telling you "rot of hunger and boredom or carry me upon your back and I'll let you out; maybe you'll cure yourself" So basically I'm very hype

Huh. Friend of mine gifted that one to me a few weeks ago. Didn't give it a second thought. Guess I'll have to add it to my horror stream rotation.
