A good fellow has made a detailed recreation of the P.T. hallway for PC. I believe its only the first run but its get the atmosphere right.

DreamShipWrecked posted:It is weird to me to remember that Yahtzee actually makes games, and even decent horror games at that. For some reason u have an image of him being a hack at it, but all the games have been decently good IIRC His Chzo Mythos adventure games were of wildly varying quality but Trilby's Notes is quite excellent.

Kortel posted:I don't like Alien Isolation. The atmosphere is great but the teleporting alien is killing the game for me plus it's psychic ability to locate me. I'm also feeling like the game is waaay too long. The alien neither teleports nor is it psychic. Its just way smarter than the monsters in a lot of other horror games.

Pretty much the only monsters I found obnoxious were the disco balls in the Curie and the dive suit thing in Tau. Everything else was a joke, so perfunctory that I wonder why Frictional bothered with them at all.

chitoryu12 posted:And yeah, the microtransactions and co-op were also problematic. Co-op wouldn't ordinarily be a problem, but they locked out missions and dialogue if you didn't have a second player so you got an incomplete experience if you tried to play by yourself. To be fair, the stuff they locked out was stuff exclusively related to Carver and his issues. If you played solo, you still got the complete story of Isaac's Terrible Horrible No-Good Very Bad End of the World

Basic Chunnel posted:The problem with SOMA's VA isn't that he's present so much that he lacks affect. He's more Troll 2 than Alien. Speaking of which, A:I's VA wasn't awesome but it was a hell of a lot better than SOMA's Whoever played Ripley was kind of flat when speaking normally, but when she needed to convey being scared out of her mind she nailed it perfectly.

Zombie Samurai posted:On a totally unrelated note, if you are a smart and cool person who has Lakeview Cabin Collection, episode 6 was just added today on the beta branch. Very loosely based on Alien, this one has you on a space station of degenerate scientists with face-hugging parasites, robots, log entries, beer, ghosts, and all sorts of other weirdness. Steam is being a shithead and breaking my image links or otherwise I would post some. Are the puzzles as obtuse as Episode 5?

What killed Oxenfree for me was there's waaaaaay too much backtracking with nothing happening towards the end of the game, especially if you want to get all the collectibles. Also the coda on the original ending was pretty stupid, but I haven't played the new ending they released yet.

joylessdivision posted:Sure, possessed Chuck E Cheese animatroncis doesn't sound that scary on the surface but I'll be honest I was at a CEC about a year ago for a friend's daughters party and those things are actually loving unnerving, especially after spending about an hour playing FNAF many months previous. I honestly wonder if Chuck E. Cheese has experienced loss of revenue due to FNAF or if they've approached Scott for a licensing deal over Halloween.

I wasn't wholly sold on Zombi till (very early spoilers) having to frantically race from the grocery store after the alarm went off and hearing the chasing zombies panting behind me as I scrambled to the safety of the fast travel. And then having to desperately fend off a goddamn horde of the fuckers with each individual zombie posing a very real threat and at least one more always clambering over the barricades as I struggled to deal with the first. Its an exhausting game, but in a good way.

Yodzilla posted:Yeah considering that kind of stuff is a main plot point everywhere else I thought there would be a reason behind it for Ethan but nope! I mean, its pretty heavily implied that he's infected by Eveline. Remarkable regeneration abilities aside, he also sees hallucinations and instructions from her. I forget if it was in the mine or on the ship, but there's a file that mentions an early stage of infection is seeing Eveline speaking to you.

chitoryu12 posted:It reminds me the most of System Shock 2 with the grid inventory system. Either way, it's definitely taking cues from the Shock games and that's a good thing in my book. I hear if you scrape the image off the front of the box, it just says System Shock 2 underneath. Regardless, it looks amazing but I don't really want to support Bethesda's lovely business practices.
