Yeah, but that doesn't mean it'll work out any better than it did the last time - Dead Space 3 had more than a few systemic issues that would've had to have been there from the beginning. It doesn't bode well.

I'm going to wait for more footage before I declare it creatively bankrupt because if a tie-in to another game with so little story and world building that it might as well have none. Any way, here's a vid about why DS3 sucked https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XVJWYmfR8kU

The ship graveyard part of DS3 was pretty great. Shame about the rest, although I do wish I had tried the co-op mode

The co-op mode was legitimately the best thing about it. The way it hosed with you by having each player see completely different things at times was pretty inspired.

The openness of the first third of the game was really great. I loved floating around the ships and being able to tackle them however.

After so many iterations of "100 shitheads airdrop onto an island", I'll take the possibility of "100 shitheads escape from a monster-filled prison"

If they are going for spooky scary serious PUBG then I look forward to hearing the in universe justification for why a bunch of office middle managers are trying to beat each other to death with frying pans.

My experience with middle management types is that if you took a group of them, put them on a space colony and then told them "yo there's an outbreak only the strong survive", they'd immediately turn on each other.

This actually already exists. They've been adding backstory to PUBG through outside media for a while. (Spoilers: it involves an evil billionare) None of said story has anything to do with space monsters, or space at all really, which just makes the connection even more confusing.

So I'm playing Murderhouse, and I'm wondering... what is it about these old lo-fidelity games like the ones of yore I grew up with that are just so effective? The sound design of the game is top notch but in the prologue, being in that empty mall was just unnerving as gently caress and I think it's partially because it's just so drat ugly. I guess when you leave details to the imagination your brain does a ton of work. I'm really liking this.

Horror is what happens when a hairless money sits awake in the dark of night and starts imagining monsters for all the horrible screeching sounds that echo through the forest. It's really just a deer mating call, but god help me if something that looks like a deer should sound anything like that in a sane world.

Sittin' around theorycrafting about horror games I'll never actually make. But I'm totally imagining a two player game about being some kind've farmer on a farm while some kind've hosed up cryptid is trying to eat all the cattle, poison the water, burn the crops ect. Game takes places in a round structure of day and night where by day the cowboy can buy bullets and make traps and by night the monster who is a player tries to gently caress poo poo up. The farmer guy can pop the monster to put it in a 'pain state' where the player controlling it loses control and it flees to safety inhumanly quick, but it never actually dies... but this means the incentive for the monster is to stay outta sight on the margins like a fleeting shadow and try and get at the cowboys sweet crops and cattle. The money and resources the farmer guy has are tied to the overall 'health' of the farm so each time he has less cash, less bullets, less health recovered, less everything. Monster type and goal changes each night randomly so you never know what you need to defend specifically or what will be most effective. Of course the game ends when the cowboy pulls the trigger and the gun goes click because he couldn't afford bullets and had no water or bandages left to cure his limp and he gets dragged away to die a gruesome death. Serves you right for building on an ancient indian burial ground or whatever rear end in a top hat. but yeah making it so that a couple of blats from your revolver or whatever dismisses the monster over a distance means that you're only ever catching glimpses and fits of it rather than the whole 'doing a big dance is the middle of the road, wooee spooky monster, please take a really close look at my horrible legs' its more this lurking figure you need to find on this massive landscape where it could be potentially anywhere but every second you don't know where it is is a second its loving you over somehow.

It sounds like a human being tortured, it's absolutely goddamned unnerving.

I think that was it, I always filed it away as it having to be a raccoon or possum or something, but it never felt quite right because it sounded bigger. Bigger predators were either nonexistent or vanishingly rare there so I never figured out what else it could be.

HEEEEEEY! I'M HORNY!! WHO WANTS TO gently caress?!?! Pretty positive all cryptids and monster sightings were just some drunk farmer who stumbled upon a baby owl at the same time an animal was making a mating call.

Comically enough, if it didn't say that it's a mountain lion call, I would've thought that to be a bird. It has that hooting quality, sounds weirdly like a forest dove.al-azad posted:HEEEEEEY! I'M HORNY!! WHO WANTS TO gently caress?!?!
