Probably the best survival horror game I’ve ever played. It’s really fucking good.
so true sister
True. It excels in all aspects of the genre, but we can't talk about the game on /v/.
>>750154137Why? Because Sphere Hunter is in it?
>>750153565Trannyslop game. Nasty.
>>750153565finished it yesterday, probably the best game i played this yeargenuinely fantastic in every regard. but i really do wish the devs didn't include sphere hunter. makes discussion around it difficult and his performance is shit anywayor maybe it's meta commentary considering he's satan's friend
>lead character os afraid of dogs>dog enemies>you can pet the heckin catterino>there is a card that celebrates some deceased hag and her "feline family"It's a dirty catfag game, of course they also put the resident evil tranny in it
Sell me on it. All anyone says is "It's great, but reeeee e-celeb."
>>750154672The cat's a demon thoughAnd the cat lady is played off as kind of pathetic
>>750154851just give it a short try, if you like silent hill/resident evil/twin peaks kind of stuff. i played it and it immediately clicked. i can list off good aspects of it here for days but it won't hit>great combat with weight>city is fun to explore>story, dialogue and voice acting are all superbwhat more do you want
>>750153565The solution code to that lock in the town hall roof was fucking bullshit, I had to look it up (yes I know it was optional but it's still bullshit)
>>750154847It's a metroidvania survival horror game the art is really good but the gameplay is total shit
Is it true the story is “it’s all in your head” type of shit?
>>750154983lmao dude for realit's spelled out for you so badly
>>750155162it's a purgatory imitation of a real city from the universe. there are supernatural elements
I mean, it was okay. It was good enough for me to be motivated to finish it at least as a pirate and I seem to not finish games very often as much as I do play new ones. Little man got aped.
Finna pirate moadra I guess, I do kinda have metroidvania fatigue but its probably gonna be the closest thing to silver pines for a bit.
I don’t understand the point of the baseball bat and blade. Both the sledgehammer and shovel outclass it.
>>750154847It's 2D Silent Hill 2.
>>750156087they are kind of mid upgrades before you get the sledgehammer
suzi mod has been fun...https://files.catbox.moe/xl0yju.mp4
i really liked it until the endingi don't understand why you'd invoke lynch so hard esp lost highway/blue velvet lynch and then do something so basic and uninteresting with the plot. it's just a rehash of silent hill 2, and im so fucking tired of psychological horror games doing the same shit over and over againfeels like the only people on the team who had a good grasp of how the plot/world should interconnect were the people doing the lightingbright lights being car headlights/red signifying boss rooms because of the red of the taillights is very coolit is kind of funny and thematic that the entire game seems to accelerate and get more wild and cool until it crashes to a dead end and kills itself
>>750156330The blade is the best melee weapon in the game.
>>750154847It's not very good, the gameplay is mediocre and my immersion is broken whenever I heard one of the e-celebs since they aren't voice acting, they're just using their regular obnoxious faggot voices.
>>750154389Worse. Jerma.
>>750157246Maybe DPS-wise, but it lacks the utility to break walls, which is present even in the end-game, and its ability to easily knock enemies down to stomp makes it an amazing weapon regardless.
>>750153565What's good about it?
>>750157842Really great exploration, combat and atmosphere.
>>750157358Name a survival horror game with better gameplay. It's obviously better than Silent Hill and far more engaging than the original Resident Evil games.Combat aside, it has far better resource management, exploration, level design, and amazing atmosphere.
>>750157195the car didn't crash
>>750158023>Name a survival horror game with better gameplayAnything that isn't a dogshit metroidvania.
>>750158023Resident Evil 4Resident Evil 5Yes, Resident Evil 6 as well.Dead Space 1 and 2DarkwoodTeleglitchWhisper Mountain Outbreak
>>750153565I loved it. It’s one of the best metroidvanias I have played I think.Currently doing a second playthrough on nightmare mode, testing out some of the modifiers. The game is buggy though, at least on Switch 2. I’ve had at least two game breaking moments where I had to either load a save or quit out of the game completely. There’s also a very frequent audio bug where sound effects will just completely drop out at random, especially melee combat sound effects. Also moments where enemies will walk backwards. Hopefully they patch all that eventually. Would love to see them do something more with this world. Or at least make another game with this engine and this blend of survival horror and metroidvania.
>>750158437Silver pines has more enemy variety than resident evil 6 and requiem.
Nope, not even a chance lolNot even a pirateTrump won BTW
>>750158582What about every single other game on the list? They also don't have transexuals in them, which is a huge plus.
>>750158401>Can't name any specific gameThe Metroidvania aspects are why it excels. Managing your resources and knowing when to use them while backtracking through areas is a key part of the survival horror genre that most devs don't understand.
>>750158437>RE4-6>Dead SpaceThose are action-oriented games. I'm talking purely survival horrorAt no point in those games are you carefully managing your resources.>DarkwoodA top-3 survival horror game of mine, but its combat is absolutely not better.
>>750158973Survival horror games are supposed to be puzzles where you have to figure out which piece fits where in a confined space not a boring game where you just sit around listening to “this door is blocked.” and being softblocked
>>750155693Eh it actually plays too much like metroid, not really horror. swing and a miss.
>>750159217Damn dude you must be pretty strong to lift and move the goalposts all by yourself
>>750159345>No puzzles!1Holy shit, just say you haven't played it, bro. You'll literally hear no complaints by anyone who has.
>>750159554I said name one, and you named borderline entirely different genres.Even if they did, you unironically listed RE6 as better. So you have no credibility regardless.
The antidote you can extract from the tree using the syringe, is that just an item you can use on yourself to cure poison damage?
>>750159648My friend, I'm not saying there aren't any puzzles but they're scattered all over a huge map in a boring 2D world that scrolls from right to left. I want to complete all the tasks in a single building like in Resident Evil or Silent Hill.
>>750153565Another game that we will never be able to discuss on /v/ because it has tranny eceleb in it.
>>750153565It's nice, not amazing but Nice. I wish the art book included more information or at least NAMES for other characters. The lady from from room 3 and the man outside Union Apartments don't have anything despite being pretty important. Also re listening to the soundtrack I fucking love how the drivers synth theme is incorporated in the room where you actually meet with Eddie at the end. There's so much I don't understand but on a replay I'm definitely able to link some things together
>>750160418I thought the guy with the umbrella sounded the same as the person who saves eddie/walker in the live ending. would make sense as he's also the nicest person you run intobut i don't know who the woman was meant to represent. maybe a worker at the bar
>>750158734Resident evil is made by capcom. Capcom made street fighter, which has a playable trans character.So it’s ok when capcom does it?
>>750159772It does in fact have better gameplay, anon. The story sucks but it's still enjoyable gameplay.
>>750160749I have a terrible ear for voices so I didn't clock that. But that's amazing if what you're saying is true. I'll have to close some clips when I get a chance I wouldn't be surprised if the Lady is her own thing. Her, the Bartender and the Little Man are probably the three fully supernatural beings in the game with no real world version.
>>750160018Pretty much. But it’s pretty hard to get poisoned in this game.
>>750161172Gotcha. Yeah I don’t remember it being an issue. Those poison throwing guys you can cheese easily by just ducking close to them and shooting or hitting in the legs with a melee weapon. I can only recall the sewer boss poisoning me pretty badly because I would dodge through him when he did his attack.
How are the boss fights?
Tranny garbage
>>750162334Only two or so are actual challenges. The rest can be cheesed pretty hard if you stock up your supplies. Most are really easily dodged through sort of trivializing them.
>>750153565It's alright. Better if you're a fan of david lynches lost highway
>>750162334the last 2 are pure kinothe rest are pretty basic
>>750153565SILVER PENIS
>>750162334They’re alright but nothing special.One complaint i kept hearing by people is that the bosses are bullet sponges and that they would use up all their ammo on a boss and I don’t get that. I never had an issue with ammo in this game. By the end I had like 40 machine gun rounds, 40 rifle rounds, magnum rounds, several pipe bombs, etc. If you explore the game gives you a lot
>>750153565I expected Twin Peaks but it just Jacob's Ladder dying dream >dude it's all in your head bro!! You're dying and it's all your dream!!Can we get an mysterious town with supernatural shit going on for once?
>>750163182Aren’t there only 2 pipe bombs in the game?
>>750153565it's alright, especially the presentationthe boss fights were lackluster and show how mid the combat is
>>750163671I think I had three by the end but I might be wrong?
>>750163182if that's the case you obviously didn't play on nightmare
>>750154389>>750157520why do devs ruin their games by doing this? Not interested anymore.
>>750163664Yeah it’s pretty clear the devs just watched Jacob’s Ladder, Angel Heart, and Twin Peaks, and cobbled that shit together into a story. It’s a bit of a bummer.
>>750163664>mysterious town with supernatural shitBut that is the game though
>>750163975I didn’t, I am currently on my second playthrough. But neither did the people complaining about the bosses that I heard.
>>750164039There was no supernatural shit. It was all in your head.
>>750163664I didn't really see any Twin Peaks in this game at all despite everyone saying it's like Twin Peaks. Unless we've restored to calling any game that takes place in a town to be like Twin Peaks.
>>750164115Someone didn't pay attention
>>750154672>dogfag is mentally ill and potentially violentMany such cases!
>>750164039The town is real but there is no supernatural shit since the entire game is Jacob's ladder ripoff.
>>750164092nightmare was a ballbuster. it's genuinely hardi think i spent all ammo i had on the last two bosses. but then again, i also had like 60 bucks leftover that i didn't use
i need more horror gamesany other notable releases in recent years?
>>750160749>>750160418Since this is full Lost Highway/Mulholland Drive/Inland Empire then the red lady has to be Alicethe same thing that transformed Eddie into Walker made Alice into the lady. She's positioned under Eddie's room at the bear motel, she only talks to you by Phone until you reach the point in the Rest ending where you're so close to dying that she can appear there. Lynch has these tulpas overwriting actual people in The Return so it fits the source material. Why she was able to appear as herself while Eddie was still stuck as Walker might be because whatever had a hold on her was less effective what with being dead/a memory instead of a dying human.
>>750164289routine was fantastic
>>750164371Genuinely small minded binary way of thinkingWhy do you do this?
>>750164289I presume you've played Faith, since that's a bit old now, but if not I highly recommend it.Tormented Souls 2 came out this year. Great fun if you like AitD and old RE.
it's ok but the main character is too retarded for my taste
>>750164493Because why would she be crying. Why would she be there helping Walker along the way if you seek her out? Why is the one place you physically see her the only place you see Alice alive?
>>750164152>didn't see any twin peaks in the gamebrother, what>small midwestern normal town with encroaching supernatural horror after one girl specifically>actual plot of game revolves around death of a girl, constant mentions of drowning>girl later shows up drowned in a lake in an almost 1:1 recreation of twin peaks s1e1 plastic bag laura palmer reveal>tragic death of girl informs the entire plot>main character is a detective who uses donuts and coffee as healing/stamina items>little creepy man as the antagonist who is just a standin for the man from another place/the arm>good girl tormented by supernatural presence who won't leave her alone and has no-one she can talk to about it so she falls in with a bad crowd and dies as a result>visual theming of red/red curtains and a bar as a central location that the story orbits around>musical number in a bar as an intermission between acts just like twin peaks season 3>comfy diner just inside of town that serves as main player safe spotalice baker and laura palmer are 75% the same characterthe game also borrows just as much from lost highwaythe entire reason why i just kind of like the game instead of loving it is i can barely call the story original since it steals so much from its influences and it seemed like it was going somewhere super interesting early onlike i thought the whole eddie velvet thing was going to be a rugpull and the twist was that the game wasn't going to be silent hill 2 because what they were doing was so obvious but instead they just played it straight>>750162334the enemy gauntlet ones are pretty fun since you get an opportunity to just fucking unload all the ammo you've been saving
How replayable is the game?
>>750167532A fair bit. Three endings, if you complete a game with certain restrictions you get rewards that can style your play after the fact. I'd only do it once to make sure I get every single item but I'm sure there are some that will revisit it regularly and I find it neat that they reward such a thing.
>>750167532not very, you can just load the previous save to go through all the 3 endings, but it somewhat lengthy, 13-16h for 100%
>>750167247There’s a bunch of other little easter eggs referencing Twin Peaks too. Like outside next to the police station you can find the board with the map of Tibet and the bucket on the ground from that one scene. I agree with you that they’re just copy pasting shit from various shows/movies and it’s kinda lame. Like you can be inspired by the tone and atmosphere of Lynch, or Jacob’s Ladder or Angel Heart, but that doesn’t mean you need to just 1:1 take plot elements from them too. It just undermines what you’re trying to do.
>>750167532I 100% on the hardest difficulty on my first run and already want to play again.Content-wise, little reason to replay, but the fun factor might get you to play it multiple times.
>>750167532You can unlock modifiers for new game when you beat it depending on what conditions you met. Like new weapons, cheats like infinite stamina, etc.
What is a moment that lasts forever.
>>750157195I mean it was pretty obvious from early on that you're Eddie Velvet so the real mystery throughout the game ends up being what happened to Alice, did you kill her or did someone else? And its kinda cool that what s revealed is that she just killed herself from the heartbreak. And you basically did the same because everyone but even you blamed yourself for what happened so you followed and drove into the waters like Alice did.
>>750153565>it's good>doesn't explain whyKill yourself shill.
>>750171940A Ride to the stars.
Literally about to start it. Any tips?
>>750174202So who’s the little man?
>>750174352Play on Nightmare difficulty and pick and choose your battles.
>>750174352You get a camera at the very start, use it a ton, see many a breakable wall? Take a picture of it. The location will stay on your map alongside the picture itself.
>>750174464Are the enemies bulletspongers on nightmare difficulty?
>>750153565It's good but it should have done it's own thing instead of just copying Twin Peaks + Silent Hill + Signis.It lacked SOVL.
>>750155162Dying fantasy with the ability to survive in one of the endings.
>>750174540Nah, there's just more with fewer resources.
>>750174391My bet is that its an actual supernatural entity, likely a spirit of the town itself, when it blamed Eddie on taking away Alice, it said "you took her away from us" And Alice is like the heart of the town itself, people love her and all of that, she enters a room and the whole room just lits up
>>750160018its a nice thing to have since it only uses one small slot, so you dont have to waste making healing bottles with the antidote or have them in your inventory, just use the syringe to cure yourself easy.
Favorite weapon in the game?
>>750175231The north starLever action is cool.
>>750153565
Reddit game
>>750154968Does it have the Twin peaks funny or only the Twin peaks serious?
>>750174646So in that news article apparently two people died in the making of Terminal Drive and they didn't know what was going to happen to the child left behind (must have been a married couple)Is that little Alice, the blonde haired kid sitting on the dudes knee?If HE's there he must have caught something for her at such a young age. No wonder he got so attached
>>750167247>alice baker and laura palmer are 75% the same characterEh. Honestly she's closer to theresa banks. No one else really comments on Alices character other than a clearly biased party. She lives in a trash heap that is Union and falls into the arms of sman called Eddie fucking Velvet.
>>750153565trooncore to the max
>>750174391>>750174646I keep circling back to the kobold from American Gods or whatever it was. A spirit that promised prosperity to a small community but as a payment it sacrificed a child to itself once a year, mostly in the form of locking them in the trunk of a car and letting them fall through the ice of a nearby lake. With what Alice was saying in her journal about the little man counting down I think that eventually he was going to take her, but even though she couldn't leave with Eddie she killed herself instead of going with him.I think that storm of the century killed the town, that's why you get that weird phonecall if you call that magazine. No one can get to Silver Pines because it got wiped off the face of the earth
