Siren is great and I like the anachronistic level order but I don't think the time loop mechanic does it any favors especially when, iirc, half the game only the second loop matters and the other half only the first loop matters. One of the coolest things is watching how the setting changed physically during the three days. It was also probably one of the legit hardest games I've ever played.

The room transitions were most likely kept in because that was part of the original games and in some way they could be used to build dread or set up jump scares or something. Its strange though because in the pc ports of the psx games (maybe the ds version of re1 also), you could skip those transitions with a button press. The thing thats killing me about REmake is the voice acting is so bad. Its not comically bad like the original, its just dull and uninteresting. The intro cutscene also hit some mad audio desync about halfway through despite being prerendered.

Yea, I know, that doesn't surprise anyone, but for a guy who didn't like the show and had worries about a game that is pretty much "point and click" I've been blown away at how good the game/story is. Telltale has said that season 3 will be out next year. It will also be larger, whatever that means with regards to an episodic adventure game. Regarding your spoiler (this isnt a game spoiler, just a fan reaction spoiler): pretty much everybody hated the entire season 2 group. They're really bad.

Maybe its just that I didn't play re4 enough but i always thought the controls were annoyingly unwieldy. You just felt so slow both running around and turning. I mean the shooting was fine but just basic movement was bad. Could've been caused by a lovely ps2 controller or something else, but when i went back to play it after it was remastered on pc, I had the same issues.

Re7 was pretty good, my only real problem with it was it felt like the last third of the game was bolted on from a completely different game, and felt very FEAR-like to me. Normally I wouldn't have cared because its common for the end of games to poo poo the bed but thats also about the time that they felt like dumping all the plot on you. I mean it was still fun and one of the better Resident Evils so I think it balances out. I just wish they would've used the vhs tapes gimmick more, I was a little disappointed that there are only like 4 of them in the game and one of them is mandatory.

You can't finish the Happy Birthday tape without uncorking the barrel, since you need to use the winding key to get the password for the room with the valve, if you try to brute force it, it just tells you that you dont know the password. I want to say that the codes lucas tells you are scripted so that the last code you try is the one that opens the door.

I hope they do away with the time/resource simulation stuff in the sequel. Its a cool idea but nothing made me want to never turn the game on again like loading a game and seeing everything go to poo poo. It always felt like they only did half of the simulation.

Meallan posted:Has anyone tried the pathologic alpha yet? If so does it look good? (Both gameplay and story wise) Ive messed around in it for a little bit and it went as well as jumping into the haruspex did the first time i played the original. It looks really nice, but it has some serious performance issues, mainly when you hit a loading zone in the map, which I hope they can fix before release.

A lot of the secondary objectives can be found out by sightjacking shibito and just watching what they focus on, but they can still be really obtuse. The freezer one sticks out mainly because there's no way of knowing that you even have to do that without a hint, and iirc you have to plug it in in a previous mission before you can even do the whole soaking a rag and freezing it. I could be getting that wrong because its been a while since I've played it. The real fucker is trying to find all of the archives. Also the couple of missions where you have to speedrun them because they have a stringent time limit, in a game about taking your time because youll die in one or two hits.

It's because he worked on some of the bad silent hill games. He likes to write one type of story with one central theme which is weird to complain about because there are so many worse writers that do the same thing that get glossed over. I wonder how much of the hate boner for him is sourced directly from voidburger's lps of origins and shattered memories.

I watched a presumably highly condensed playthrough done by some guy that apparently streams himself running mgs games every day and has done so for the past couple of years that ended up making the game look fairly interesting and even the dude playing it said he liked it a lot more than he thought he would've going into it. I assume he cut out the majority of the grind for pacing and its not like bullshit grinding wasn't all over mgs5 to begin with. It also looked like it utilized the open world map a lot better than mgs5 by actually having a point to explore at all. The story and characters seemed just kind of there until nearly the end of the game, but it reminded me of something youd get in a pulp novel that youd buy at a garage sale or something.

Yeah if it were half of the system, just the quick vs slow reloads it would probably be fine in a survival horror context, its really the needless chore of having to fill each magazine individually in the menu that drags an alright-if-handled-correctly mechanic into annoyance. Like every video ive seen of it has the player doing the reload shuffle every time they get any ammo because they have to top up each magazine.

now that snow tech is decent, id like to see snow/blizzard horror that makes you actually take the cold into account. like you have to trudge through waist deep snow or whatever and doing so is bad enough because you cant see anything but you soak your clothes when the snow starts melting so you have to start a fire or hang out around a heater or something to dry your clothes and warm up, and like the monsters or whatever can track you down by your paths through the snow so youd have to cover them up by kicking snow over where you travelled but that takes time
