Came here to say this too. No shame to OP, Fatal Frame is an awesome series and if this is inspired by it I’m sure it’ll be great!

Res contracting so… honestly worst case scenario is i get a lil sawdust on my tongue

This reply made me chuckle

this is always how it starts. first a post, then a whole announcement

Obviously homeboys first HL3 hype round. I will boil and eat my work boots on livestream if anything called “Half Life 3” gets released in 2025. Screenshot this

Alannah Pearce namedrop i love that Aussie she was the best part of Funhaus

I played through My Friend Pedro over the weekend when I had a few hours to chill. I can’t promise that it’ll keep you preoccupied for long but I really enjoyed it

The Witcher series

The Metro series (Exodus is the most open-world)

The Assassins Creed series

The Far Cry series

All have plenty of titles that are playable on a 9800

Sony has the worst track record of anyone to be talking about “safety”

Yeah lol. This seems to be a popular opinion in the larger gaming community. They really nailed the pirate life

Black Flag, followed closely by 3. It doesn’t hurt that those were released right at the peak of my interest in gaming, but I replayed BF within the past two years and it still holds up super well

It’s actually pretty crazy just how hard that game flopped. I would have always thought that a company like Sony could’ve just brute-forced such a big project to achieve some success (or at least break even), but 25,000 units sold is almost unheard of for a game as expensive as Concord.

Definitely #1. But you can’t ever make any reference to it looking like Big H in the game. Just make it so people say “… is that supposed to be Hitler?”

Funny because I noticed the haptic feedback for the first time recently after owning my PS5 for over a year and was instantly looking for ways to disable it. I don’t trust an unnecessary vibrating motor not to fuck up the parts of the controller I actually care about keeping functional and the Dualsense battery life is abysmal enough as it is

Once you make it to Valentine (youll know when) the game pretty much gives you the reigns, but until then, as others have said, the tutorial is pretty long and guided

I don’t know of anything but this sounds like something I could use a lot too, so I’m commenting to remember to check this thread later

Man, I’m glad that people are enjoying the game as much as they say they are but I tried my first play through earlier this year and it was terrible. I saw almost no difference in the amount/type of glitches between what I experienced back in January and what I saw online when the game first released a few years ago.

Oh yeah, massive props for the guy for what he did. I’m sure he had some idea that he was crossing a line with those comments and made them anyway. But still, he was the community manager and “hey guys, refund this game” surely wasn’t how Sony wanted their community to be managed.

Guy seemed to forget he was the community manager. Of course you’re going to get sacked when you use your position in the company to tell people to refund and leave a bad review for the place you work for.

2004-2014. That captures the great tail end of the sixth generation of consoles and the golden days of the seventh

Ngl I just love dishonored 1 and 2 so goddam much

Arkane might be the last great major developer

We need to come up with a new phrase for this kind of LLM-spouted word salad that just manages to set off your linguistic uncanny valley response and use just about 20% more words than it needs to.

I want you to know that I put this video on while I shaved my balls and didn’t even realize that whole video was only 4 minutes. So much content in such a short amount of time. The phrase “script economy” gets thrown out a lot in cinephile communities, but this clip might be one of the most effective examples of the phrase that I’ve ever seen.

This is fucking hilarious I’m sorry

The Last of Us: “do i look like a fucking joke to you?”

The gameplay loop seemed to devolve into just the same mini games over and over again. I got to the seahorse racing stuff and just gave up when it became too much to handle. Plus I definitely mismanaged the restaurant and just could never make it back to the green which kinda sucked

Glad to see its getting a larger release, this is a gem of a game. While it took me a few hours of play to realize it wasn’t for me, I’m glad that more people will have the chance to experience it.

I played Watch Dogs (1) for the first time last year after pre-ordering it back in 2013 on console and coming across a game-breaking bug and never being able to complete it. It’s honestly a really fun game that I think gets more hate than it deserves. Obviously the stuff with the graphic downgrades between promo and launch were/are shitty, but the gameplay was fun and the story was pretty entertaining. Plus the spider tank.

Never played the sequel, though.

I think anything associated with Amazon puts a lot of people on the defense right out the gate, myself included. I would’ve loved to see a different studio handling this adaption tbh

This will literally be worse than 911 Holocausts

Agreed. I tried my first playthrough after upgrading my PC around the holidays and dealt with constant crashes and texture/model issues. No idea what people say about this game being “fixed,” when the problems I experienced were the same ones I saw on clips years ago.

Phenomenal game. Improves on the original in almost ever way

Tried that, it was too hard

Is this game any good? I’ve been so busy this past year that it completely flew right by me, dispite Dying Light being one of my favorite games

Crazy that an 11 year old game can stoll hit the charts

FWIW I would love a chance to play another AC: Black Flag. That was probably the most fun gaming experience in my life back in 2013

I mean, I’m pretty pro-steam myself but competition is always a good thing for consumers. There are plenty of features that Steam users have been asking for for years and maybe another competitor in the desktop marketplace can light a fire under them, so to speak.

Same. But 800 hours over a solid decade of playtime. Haven’t touched PD2 in a few years though and my general impression of 3 hasn’t been enough to get me back into the franchise.

What?? Faith might be the only interesting character in the whole FC series. I don’t think you understand the character’s backstory at all, TBH. The original Faith was the Seeds’ sister who died young, so the brothers kidnap young women in the cult, drug them (I forget what the name of the drug is in the game), and convince them that they’re Faith Seed. Eventually that woman dies so they replace her with another. It’s horribly tragic and, in my opinion, is leagues above the standard character writing of the Far Cry games

“I know this IP is profitable, we just have to keep trying to reboot it. People love superheros, right?”

Until Dawn was really something special when it came out, there was nothing else quite like it on consoles. I still remember seeing the original trailer when it was supposed to be for the Playstation Move. Very glad to see it finally get to PC.
