The voice acting actively makes that game much better, you're crazy.

I still have no idea how we were supposed to solve, like, 90% of the puzzles in Out Of This World

Probably my favorite. There's another part where the very same Samson, God's chosen musclebro, uses his bare hands to bring down a building on a bunch of people who pissed him off.

I don't know why they hide all the really good poo poo in the Bible; they should lead with this stuff.

Was gonna say, Nothing But Trouble reboot looking good.

Said it before but I dunno, horror games are fine with some ability to fight back, but if you turn that into straight up "Fight your way out of all encounters all the time" then it just becomes yeah, an action game with spooky bits.

It's my example every time, but Dead Space to me messed up all ability to be spooky because they pretty much give you the best weapon right off the bat, so the rest of the game is strolling through the Ishimura severing limbs like paper mache.

Anyone else pick up Friday the 13th? I got the PS4 version and while I've been having trouble connecting to matches when I do its a ton of fun.
If we ever get Deadly Premonition 2, I hope its done in the even more batshit style of Twin Peaks Season 3.

SGF is a goon, too. His Deadly Premonition LP is one of the greats, imo.

The Chzo Mythos is fascinating because the third game is fantastic, the fourth game is pretty drat good with a few "uhhhh" parts, but the second one

holy moley the second one

My favorite joke to come out of Until Dawn is the fan theory that no told Peter Stormare what emotions he should be portraying in any given scene, so he just decided to do all of them at once.

Oxenfree is great just for the atmosphere. There's nothing outright horrifying in it but the story moves along at a good pace and there's no outright annoying puzzles. Also if you collect all the cards for it the backgrounds you can get are very cool.

I really dig the look of Observer. Not really scary but so far a pretty interesting story. The thing that really sucks is that Rutger Hauer is a really, REALLY lovely voice actor.

speaking of giger it'd be cool if someone made a well designed first person game that was like dark seed. i say well designed because holy poo poo is the original impossible without having a walk through.

At the end you find a mirror and in its reflection you gaze upon true horror. You see Mike Dawson.

What other adventure games are as bonkers as dark seed 2 or harvester?

King Vidiot posted:

Of course David Cage would animate himself grind-dancing with the woman wearing the tank top and panties. He has a very specific taste, it's always a woman with short brown hair and at some point in the game she'll be wearing a tank top and thong panties.


Nah not even close, he's more like the David DeCoteau of video game writers.

Is there a good, thorough LP of Eternal Darkness anywhere? I'd check to LP archive but I'm at work at the moment and the only one I remember was a kind of lighthearted, "let's all just have fun" kinda thread. (I *think* I drew fan art of a mad Maximilllian running around with his pants off for that too.)

I'd love to see a real in depth one that shows off the various paths and gods and everything though.

I'm pretty sure Too Human did well all things considered. What killed Silicon Knights was that X-Men game where you don't play as any of the iconic x-men. I can't imagine the licensing fees in a post Disney buyout.

You really have to be stretching to pretend that scene isn't deliberately coded as an assault scene. You can blame the modelers and cutscene directors if you want but that is exactly what that scene is.

it might not be iconic to you younglings but this moment certainly caused panic attacks in lil' zets

Last I saw one of the devs threw a fit over A:I "stealing" their look and they haven't updated in quite some time. I'm assuming it's dead at this point but I'd be overjoyed to be wrong.

Do game IPs run on the same copyright rules as movies, ie if you don't use the IP within a certain amount of time it reverts back to the original holder/ becomes public use?

If you guys like FMV horrors check out "The Infectious Madness Of Doctor Dekker" on steam. It's lovecraftian horror at it's hammiest. I enjoyed it a lot even if the text parser was just awful imo. It also doesn't close all it's narrative threads too, so if that stuff infuriates you, be careful.

Imagine four teleported brains in tanks on the edge of a cliff. A fifth brain in a tank is in a junction switch box and can access a switch that will drop a trolley off the cliff onto another ten brains in tanks, two of which have extensive rap sheets. If the switch is not pulled, one of the four brains on the cliff will fall off the cliff, only to reregister under a different account name on a perfect simulation of a dead gay forum that is less dead and gay, and therefore not a perfect simulation, but don’t worry,

The brain in the switch box has never heard of identity problems, the ship of Theseus, the teleporter problem, brooms, or intuition pumps in general, and finds this post both confusing and intriguing.

But oh, no! These brains are through a contrivance the only brains in the world, and oh no, they’re dead, sort of! Imagine being dead. How horrific.

Like, if it’s a phobia of yours I can respect that it may be personally impactful, but it’s not a well-crafted narrative and it’s entirely rehashing a collection of very, very old questions in philosophy that have had everything wrung out of them for decades. Talos Principle actually had more interesting things to say.
