Just finished Project Zero: Maiden of Black Water, decent entry in the series, not a classic like the first two but on par with the third, got fed up with the combat eventually, especially fighting multiple ghosts, but didn't outstay its welcome too much. Lol at finishing it unlocking a bunch of extra missions where you play as Ayane from Ninja Gaiden though.

Hey, thanks for the Discord link! I spent about 15 minutes straight getting booted from public Phasmophobia games because I'm level 10, I guess? Can't wait to start making some money.

I got so salty in Phasmophobia tonight. During a hunt, I ducked into a room across the building from the spawn point and closed the door behind me. The ghost still ended up getting me, which I didn't think was posible. My teammates checked on my body and another hunt started. The ghost tracked them down, beelined at someone, then....knocked over a soda can. https://clips.twitch.tv/PopularNiceWombatSSSsss

Had Haunting Ground too, but no idea what ever happened to it. This reminds me that I have a black label Silent Hill 1 buried in my closet that I should put on eBay.

If you live in the Cincinnati area and can find an open Buybacks, maybe you can find the complete copy of Kuon I sold in a giant box of games to make rent a decade ago. Good luck, gamers.

Haunting Ground is weirdly underrated. It's still one of the better Clocktower-likes around even today (and isn't that a sad statement) but hardly anyone seems to have even heard of it.

i don't know how far off it released from clock tower 3 but the parallels are interesting, they have the same kind of fixed-camera run-and-hide gameplay, graphic style, and cutscene direction, but clock tower 3 is almost lethally goofy and haunting ground is uhhhhhh not so much daniella's scenes are still eerie as hell

Haunting Ground also featured a dog that refused to do what you said, predating The Last Guardian by like 15 years.

Man, I should find my copy of Rule of Rose in my old storage boxes. I could use 600 bucks. Rule of Rose was an amazing story and a terrible game and I'm still very glad I experienced it.

It sounds like they've successfully meshed the story-heavy nature of SOMA with the greater emphasis on gameplay of their previous games. If anyone still reads Rock Paper Shotgun, they also have a positive review but they casually mention a plot point that every other review has been tiptoeing around, so I'd avoid them if you're wanting to go in blind.

Preordered it anyway, maybe I'll have time during the evenings to start digging in. Hopefully it's not 20+ hours long. fake edit: skimming through reviews without actually reading details, one of the reviews pegged it around 9 hours. I can do that.

Seems like Frictional forgot to include the .exe in the Steam release of Rebirth so no one can play it. In reality, not a big deal since they'll fix it shortly, but boy oh boy are people melting down. The true horror is gamers.

You can't review the game without playing it for a set amount of time. Although that means that 2 of the 3 reviews that are currently up didn't mention they were sponsored.

I am also confused as to what is supposed to be funny. Even backed up the clip a bit and it's still the same goofy faces and overreaction to minor jump scares. Game looks good though, big Frictional fan and looking forward to playing. Zushio fucked around with this message at 21:28 on Oct 20, 2020 |

I’ve given it a couple hours so far and am I wrong in thinking that the oil in the lantern just drains so drat quickly in this one? I’ve not yet found a big oil supply thing like in the first Amnesia, if they even exist, so a bit annoyed with having to use the really short lived matches.

YouTube time stamps are weird on SA. Finished Amnesia: Rebirth though there's a couple of different endings. Decent horror game with a neat idea for a protagonist but I don't think it'll have people arguing about for years like Soma.

WombatCyborg posted:Yeah Rule Of Rose is ridiculously expensive. From an LP, it does look like a good if clunky game though. You sure you aren't thinking of Rumble Roses? That piece of poo poo belongs at that price range. I bought Rule of Rose new on release and immediately traded it in to GameStop when I beat it. The combat is super bad, and the puzzles and objectives often vague and infuriating. The story is decent I guess? The tone and atmosphere is the best thing about the game which it absolutely nails.
