Is Get Even any good? I got it in a humble bundle. The trailers reminded me a bit of FEAR, but apparently the gunplay is kinda poo poo?

blackguy32 posted:Some interesting stuff about the Alien AI from Alien Isolation in this video. There is also another video that explains stuff as well. I really enjoyed watching it. No wonder the Alien feels so alive, they did such a great job with this. Ugh, shame this engine and AI is never getting used again for a sequel.

That's more of a Five Nights at Freddy's game than an actual sequel to the game.

That is probably all we are going to get since the people who made Alien Isolation are no longer with Creative Assembly and it does pick up where A:I left off.

I’ve been playing Alien: Isolation 2: Blackout: Big Chap Wants to Touch You and it’s honestly not bad. There’s a lot more mileage in it than FNAF. My one quibble is that it absolutely drains my iPad battery. Way more than other ‘big’ games like XCOM or Civ6.

Is Call of Cthulhu worth $12 or not even really that? Really, I'd much rather toss $20 at Sinking City, but that game, even with the Epic discount, is still JUST above my pricepoint, especially if I want the likely completely useless DLC.

CoC (heh) has decent atmosphere but it plays the Lovecraft stuff by the book and has been done to death with nothing really new to add. Probably okay for 12 bucks

I think I got my fill on EYE. It was nice knowing how to actually play it and I wish I gave it the time of day 10 years ago but if every mission is as long and meandering as the first I think I got everything I want out of the game.

Has anyone played the ObsCure games? They were completely off my radar when they were first released and the remasters are 75% off on Steam. Looks like they might be fun in an RE 2 kind of way.

They're investigative horror where the characters you play are a bunch of school kids, multiple endings, etc. Very well done, and the controls were better than RE at the time (Pre-4) but the camera angles were just as bad.

I really enjoyed obscure. It basically comes across as something like The Faculty or Buffy the survival horror games. Also I am enjoying the hell out of Observation right now. It’s so well put together and the aesthetic and atmosphere is so loving good.

Obscure also has a chef's kiss perfect classical-style spooky piano type of soundtrack, which is a little at odds with its cheesiness, but still great. I like the first one more than the second.

Also it has Remote Play Together now so I guess I'm picking it back up myself. TGLT fucked around with this message at 15:15 on May 27, 2020 |

Memnaelar posted:Is Call of Cthulhu worth $12 or not even really that? Sinking City is still $19 on the ps4 store at the moment with the preorder DLC included. I'm having a decent time with it; it nails the atmosphere and sanity aspects pretty well but I'm still in the beginning missions. I'm actually liking it which I didn't expect because I bounced hard off all the Sherlock games. Call of Cthulhu was...forgettable. As in I played it last Halloween sale and don't remember a drat thing about it.

Call of Cthulhu is a game where you can track the budget running out in real time. The opening few chapters are pretty strong for an adventure game then you end up in an asylum and it becomes generic horror game #7.

I own both on steam and love them both. I was just curious if they got a new remaster, but looking into it, it's the remaster they got when they were ported to the Wii back in the day. Also Obscure has a secret third game that I can't remember the name of, but it's a cartoony 2D platformer. I'll have to ask my steam friend that is a die hard Obscure fan.

It originally went with the Obscure-name, but that didn't work well with focus groups apparently.

Those Who Remain hit today and I decided to check it out. I only played about 40 minutes before deciding to refund it. The game is somewhat creepy at first with the enemies staring at you from the darkness and it does have that light-based mechanic I was talking about earlier (albeit static light emplacements rather than the "base-building" I was interested in), but the game kinda falls flat. There's no real threat from the static enemies as long as you carefully check inside doors for switches, linearity is high, there's very little worldbuilding of substance, and puzzles are slightly-but-frustratingly-obtuse in some cases. I only got to slightly past the diner but decided the game wasn't worth playing further.
