Satisfactory has an arachnophobia mode that turns a type of enemy that is spiderish into a cat. Any other games have no spider modes? Thinking about it, spiders are probably the most common video game enemy? Top five for sure.

Level 2: The spiders have no legs. Instead, they just float above the ground. Level 3: The spiders have no mouth. Their faces only have eyes on them. Level 4: The spiders' facial features are further simplified, becoming smooth round orbs. Level 5: The spiders' bodies have the same smooth orb treatment I haven't played it, but it sounds creepy in its own way

grounded has an arachnophobia slider that goes from 1 to 5, making the spiders incrementally less detailed until they're just a vague floating sphere with eyes at 5 e;fb

Thanks for nothing, the only thing I'm more scared of than spiders is floating smooth orbs.

All the arachnophobia mode does in Satisfactory is make you think that behind every cat lies some half-spider half-fleshy-car-engine monstronsity.

Havent used it, but there are a couple scenes in the game where go through through a large spider nest and theres countless fist-sized spiders everywhere

Shouldn't an arachnophobia mode INCREASE the amount of spiders? They will in my games, that's for sure.

Top five for sure. chess 2 by dave sirlin (pbuh) notably has no spiders in the entire game, so u could say it has arachnophobia mode on 24/7  another game that does not have spiders is Touhou Kanjuden ~ Legacy of Lunatic Kingdom.

Not a video game, but I recently enjoyed a novel called Children of Time by Adrian Tchaikovsky. If you're in to hyper evolved spider civilizations, give it a go.

Shadows Over Loathing has one, but it also has this, which turns a bunch of non-spider enemy encounters into spiders:  Selecting that option also allows you to select "Arachnophonia" which replaces all enemy combat sounds with chittering spider noises.

I like that racing game that had a "Trans Pride Billboards" toggle in the option but it just changes the billboards from sometimes having a trans pride flag to every single one having one.

Was The Day Before ever available to pre-purchase, or just for wishlisting? Having the second most wishlisted game in Steam with no pre-order revenue isn't a good reason to run off to the Bahamas.

Don't think it was available to prepurchase. They might have used all the hype to secure some funding and then run off with that.

as a kind of degenerate rickroll my brother posted the link to the trailer for hi-fi rush with the demand i watch precisely the first 15 seconds of it because, spoiler alert, it literally begins with a record scratch, freeze frame, "so, you're probably wondering how i got in this situation". never going to touch the game in a million years.

 the dialog in the trailer has some of that 90s cringe to it as cowcaster said, although i'd say it felt like a different flavor of bad than the other types of AAA bad writing. more just, jokes that don't work and stale humor. the "well at least things can't get worse" *things get worse* kind of humor. rather than lampshading "THIS trope again!" humor but the art team put a lot of love into the game. i wish writing teams were in love with the material as much as the design/art team was for these AAA games. because the art direction is actually pretty good, the animation almost Orange-level for what is in-game engine character animation. and that was kind of my feeling on Evil Within 2 as well, where the art/design team had a ball and the writing team was dragging behind not having the same amount of fun (except for a couple of notable scenes) i'll have to see how it reviews this trailer also made me realize i should at some point give sunset overdrive a fair chance

Sunset Overdrive is one of those games that wants you to think it's fast but plays real slow. I dunno if that makes any sense.

That's... the exact same style of commentary (in the Steam Page's Trailer) that everyone is dunking on Forsaken for. Is it a style of US children's show or something? The animation style & detail looks top notch, tho.
