>shitty blurry graphics
>generic unreal engine lighting
>shitty visual effects
>sterile, static enviroments without any cool details
>need latest hardware just to achieve slighly more than 60 fps on medium settings with upscaling and fake frames
And niggers will tell you gaming didn't become worse
>muh nostalgia muh rose tinted glasses
Played this game for the first time like 3 years ago, now playing it again for spooky month with the Echo Patch. Suck my dick.

Idk what it is about FEAR that makes me so uneasy but even just the soundtrack just makes me not feel right. That music on the main menu is just eerie man.

But yeah, a lot of new games just go all in on a realistic look but zero style. Normgroids love it though

Back then devs had to understand their engines, if you didnt then you werent releasing shit. Now its easy so they dont need to be anywhere near as good and theyre all lazy fuckers.

You're ignoring that this game has 2 shitty sequels that are also quite old.
FEAR is so good because it was expressly made to be a PC only game. Never forget what consolefags took from you.

Well...can't argue with that. A lot of FEAR 2s problems were from being made more for console

I still remember Crysis 2, consoles were a mistake

And before that... Deus Ex IW was the gold standard for consoleitis

Not to mention actually making them, instead of relying on Unreal Engine.

Yeah, it's no wonder why X360 and PS3 ports were so shit.

Not only that, but also devs chasing the "Call of Duty audience".
