Does that mean Kojima is working on two horror games since leakers have already leaked he's making a silent hill game again?

I'm getting lost at this point but it's still nebulous on that front I think? Like for instance I know people were saying No Code were working on one but all I could find in print was Anapurna was looked at, and people know No Code is making a horror game.

Section Z posted:
Okay so I'm gonna add an addendum to this game to warn any arachnophobes: do not play Eternal Evil. There are very graphic, well modeled giant scorpions and spiders. I don't see any options currently for an arachnophobia mode and I'd be honestly surpised if it got added, not sure how you'd even changes these models. A few other disclaimers: English is very much not the first language of the dev and while it's noticeable it's still very understandable. Also all the starving vampires can suck your blood and get big, buff, and bust out of their shirts. This includes male and female models. You will also encounter topless enemies of both genders. Yes, there is titty is this game and I really didn't expect it tbh. It's... eh? Not sexualized at least. That said, game is good so far! The combat is solid, a lot of effort was clearly put in to weapon animations and reloads, and the knife is good. On top of that it has very RE collectable based puzzles, and they are actual puzzles you have to figure out from notes and signs. None of them have stumped me so far but I did have to actually think through a few of them for a bit. The boss fights I've have encountered have been somewhat underwhelming, and the ammo is plentiful if you don't mind taking the time to knife kill walker vamps.

So far? I'd say well worth the 15.99 I paid and then some. It's got great atmosphere and sound design, the combat is solid and not frustrating. The story is alright and 100% wears its inspiration on its shoulder (RE1-2 but vampires), but so far I've still enjoyed following it. The UI is easy to parse and the puzzles are all tough but not frustrating. There's also a way to skip puzzles that I didn't make use of if you get really frustrated with them, though you may have to give a gun up to do so? I'm not entirely sure. I'd give it a recommend for sure, with the cavet of really don't play it if you have arachnaphobia. edit: just to touch on the combat a bit, it's way slower and methodical. The guns are all strong but if you have to reload anything but the pistol you better hope you haven't trapped yourself in a corner somehow. The gun feel is all satisfying though and clearly a lot of effort was put into the animations. Evil Kit fucked around with this message at 22:14 on Jun 11, 2022 |

Reviews seem to say that the pathing is real messed up and enemies get caught on tables or doors very easily. Probably going to wait for some patches but it looks great otherwise.

Forget Silent Hill rankings, it's "Video Game Spiders" time to shine. (I always found the REmake tarantulas and the heavy thumping of their feet pretty awful, in a good way.)

He cannot certain types of spiders so I try to be aware of that sort of thing when talking 'bout games. Definitely don't play Eternal Evil.

Yeah, I could handle Limbo with just a general "ughhh" but I wouldn't play a modern 3D game with big spiders. Which makes it the most effective horror trope I guess, since it spooks me too much to even look at the game

There’s been a few recent decent indie fps horror games. Nightmare of Decay is so much a ripoff of Resident Evil I’m surprised they haven’t gotten C&D but it’s a perfectly good inventory based survival horror for $5. There’s also Remorse: The List a total Cry of Fear knock off that’s also good and spooky. And best spider is in Arkane’s first game Arx Fatalis and Dark Messiah those fuckers climb down walls and jump in your face. al-azad fucked around with this message at 06:13 on Jun 12, 2022 |

oh, and who can forget Northern Journey, a game so chockablock with spiders that it eventually becomes a very cruel joke at one point near the end your guide/tormentor assures you that you won't encounter any more living, breathing spiders on your quest. shortly thereafter you are beset upon by underwater spiders, followed by skeleton spiders

also in case anyone was still wondering how inspired by the RE series the dev of Eternal Evil is: edit: because there's actually a second spider in the game, I went ahead and got some footage of it when it's alive. Because I'm thorough or something like that? obviously spoiler'd https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/789881673092562944/985585596107993138/SPOILER_spiders_alive.mp4 this game is pretty drat good for a single person dev team, from what I've been able to gather I believe it's a single person team at least.

thebardyspoon posted:Longshot here but does anyone remember an indie horror game getting announced where you played as a city? I think the premise was you were given sentience because of a weird presence or a cult or something and you were basically like, manipulating the streets and alleys at night or when people weren't around to make them go certain places and potentially be killed either by the cult or maybe by you, like a tunnel might be one of your many mouths or whatever. Looked vaguely simmy, might have been sepia toned or black and white in the one or two screen shots. I don't know what this is but good god this sounds like an awesome concept for a game. I'd love to know what this is as well.

Now all we need is Allison Road and Sadness to come back. Wait, while typing this post I went to go check and make sure Sadness was the game I was thinking of and holy poo poo.  quote:Nibris' official website, which had not been updated since its announcement of appearing at GDC 2008, closed in February 2010. On April 5, N-Europe reported that Arkadiusz Reikowski, one of the game's music composers, released some of his unfinished work to the public and confirmed that Sadness had been abandoned by Nibris and was no longer in the works. In October Nibris itself transformed into a coordinator for the European Center of Games, ceasing game development permanently, and remaining staff and projects were also reported to have been handed over to Bloober Team, another game developer.  quote:Bloober Team was founded by Peter Babieno and Peter Bielatowicz. The studio was originally part of Nibris, a developer set up in 2006, but sought to become independent through investor funding. The studio formally launched on 6 November 2008, employing 20 people in Kraków offices. Babieno became the chief executive officer for the company. In October 2010, following Nibris' decision to exit the game development business and the cancellation of their only video game, Sadness, many of the company's developers joined Bloober Team. Oh my god I didn't know Bloober was the reason for the entirety of the Sadness situation. I remember following that whole thing and getting a kick out of it because of how Sadness never felt like it was ever a real game. This is blowing my mind. Like, holy poo poo.

I can't see a The Quarry thread but I need to make sure I'm not mad - it's a chapter one/two spoiler: in chapter one if you get the Temperence card you get a vision of the bullets and fireworks. from the fortune teller and knowing the definition of the temperence movement it's telling you when given the option you should decline to take the fireworks as it will benefit you in the long run by showing restraint. However literally every guide I have seen says taking the fireworks, not practising temperence, is the right decision as they will help you. Are the guides all wrong or is the in game being deceptive on purpose?
