Board is fast tonight…

Just got done playing through all of the Alan Wake games in under a week. These games scratched every single possible itch more me and I was engaged with the the entire time, literally a perfect franchise.

>Fair enough, I still hold that it was a choice made for the better though
It's a little disappointing there wasn't a proper climatic showdown, but on the other hand, it's cathartic for a corporation to go down because the government decided to bother.

>we know he moved around from company to company and taking whatever he could so them fading into the background is somewhat expected.
Fair enough.

>I don’t think he would see breaking out the G-virus or T-virus as conductive to his goals given all his focus on Uroboros.
Sure, but it makes him gathering all of those viruses pointless.

>I got the impression the Connections were that too, that is, they have people in high places funding and supporting them
IIRC Connections only really had connections with Miranda (She gave them fungus to try to recreate her daughter), and HCF, don't remember anything about higher up people funding them.

Also it's a little weird that RE8 decided to have Spencer and Miranda be personally connected, Brandon Bailey is one of Umbrella's founders, and the game doesn't comment about a connection between Bailey and Miranda.

>Thus far anyway. I don’t think anyone predicted they were going to pay homage to an Outbreak character with RE9 so I wouldn’t say it’s off the table
Fair enough. I was certainly baffled when that trailer mentioned "Ashcroft". While RE did make a few references to Outbreak (Including Alyssa herself writing an article about kidnappings during RE7), I certainly wasn't expecting that.

>I’m just going to assume they liked the voice actor and didn’t intend to imply it was literally Wesker still around, lol
I dunno about that, he speaks like Wesker (DC Douglas can change his voice well enough), the game notes that the recreation of RE4's events were done like he was involved with it, and other characters tried to find his identity only to get killed off for trying. The hints that he was Wesker, or something about his identity is major, were there.

Almost finished a rerun of SysShock 2 remaster. I'm at the Many level rn and feeling kind of bored. Normal difficulty seems to break for me on Hydroponics, when you find both rapier and laspistol. It's like there are so many cyber modules it's hard not to unlock everything and become flushed with resources. Although Engineering still feels tricky. I saw 2 rebalance mods on the game forums: Rebalanced Skills and Disciplines and Secmod. I'd like to try the one which rewires the game the most but it's more about being able to boot it on the remaster I guess.
tl;dr: what mod will make gameplay the most refreshed?

I'll dump my Evil Within Clips here

>>529333032 (OP)
just started the remake. how do i stop being a huge pussy? this game has a jumpscare per 30 seconds and it's stressing me the fuck out. going into every room twitching like the old doom meme webms and i feel like i need to take a smoke break with some deep exhales after every objective. must stress that the actual combat is super easy and i haven't even come close to dying, but i'm jolting out of my fucking chair every 30 seconds and can't deal.

>>529397687
Maybe intentionally get hit a few times for you to see what actually happens if you get hit? Not dying while getting hit (Obviously while you have a few med packs) can tone down the threat of necromorphs since you'll know you can survive the attacks, I guess...

>>529383490
Is this a mod?

>>529413298
No it's vanilla, they added a first person mode, but getting it to work properly with no mouse smoothing, proper fov, sensitivity, etc requires you to own both the steam version and at the very least have the game pass trial version.

RISE

>>529408143
i think i might just be susceptible to jump scares. once combat starts i'm foaming at the mouth and chasing them down and stomping the shit out of them like i'm playing doom. but the dread before combat starts gets me.

>>529426601
thanks for sharing, anon. what difficulty were you playing? and did you have a legit version of the fighting chance pack or did you get it from a keyselling site like a dirty filthy person like me

>>529428163
I couldn't play on the hardest because it wasn't unlocked yet (outside of the 1 hit mode), I bought The Evil Within 1 around when it first came out but didn't like it much on release, but I came back around once I got my new PC because my old PC couldn't run anything off the microsoft store, and that had the gamepass version and thus the version required to sync up with the steam version to have all the new content.

I did try The Evil Within 2 a bit but kinda got distracted playing some other games so I am taking a bit of a break from it. Bought The Evil Within 2 back when steam made it very easy to get games extremely cheap from Argentina.

>>529413842
Damn. I thought they only did that for TEW2. Good to know. From what I can tell it was janky as shit too though and the game still forced you back into third person at times.

Is Story mode the ideal way to play Voices of the Void or is it half-baked atm? It's been two in-game weeks and very little has happened, at least anything I've actually noticed. Aside from the thing that happens when low sleep, all that's happened is a spam of blank emails and a pair of eyes noclipping through the windows to knock me over, maybe a handful of Can't Save moments which amounted to nothing I noticed
Also still haven't quite figured out what the ideal sustainable food source is or how I'm supposed to lug stuff from other locations when inventory fills up quick and much of stuff is too big to stow away. Figured out cooking but it's a pain when the drives+hashes run takes so much of the day.

Ghostwire wasn't a bad game: It had some neat ideas, cool milieus and parkouring around central Tokyo looking for secret pickups was fun. I'm glad I gave it a playthrough... but at the same I'm really not sure I can say it was a good game?

>>529496629
ya got that image with a few more pixels?

Yeah i'm not sure how I feel about The Evil Within 2, it just feels jankier, third person or first person, it's not bad but something about The Evil Within 1 even in first person felt way smoother.

There are good aspects to it don't get me wrong, and I am enjoying my time with it, and I have a FEELING long term i'll enjoy it more than 1 but i'm not sure, i'll post some clips from it as I play it more.

EW1 was one of the, not WORST, but least fun and most predictable games I've ever played, pure shite.
The sequel was still a very janky survival horror but at least it brought some refreshing changes to the formula: The semi-open world areas and stealth mechanics actually made you feel like a survivor for the first part of the game and combat/weapons also felt better than its predecessor. Story was still utter bargain bin trite but at least EW2 was a fun-ish 3+/5 game, which was more than EW1 could've ever hoped for.

Tried Backrooms Extractions with a friend, unfortunately like most Backrooms slop games, despite this one being one of the better ones, it delves into the bullshit many of them do which is running around a map finding useless shit to proceed to the next level rather than being what I assumed to be a spin on Lethal Company but set in a Backrooms universe.

Some of the AI and monsters in this game genuinely were a lot better than many of the other backrooms games, and visually it genuinely looks great, but I wish we got at least one fucking backrooms game that at properly followed literally any of the canons and not some puzzle slop.

God it'd be funny if a part of the RE5 Remake was the Plagas Hive Mind tricking Tricell into making a population that is born as Plagas Hosts.
It's great existensial horror. Especially if they can't stop it from happening due to "DISTRACTION OUROBOROUS!"

I'm Really Afraid I'm not going to like Silent Hill f. It Looks so good but that Japanese flesh light girl is holding a metal pipe.

I played Silent Hill 2 Remake as my first Silent Hill game and was deeply disappointed. Specifically the melee combat stole all the tension and fear from the monsters. I stopped playing 2 hours in.

On the other hand, I'm in love with Re4 remake, despite being less spooky and tense compared to the Re2 Remake. I think the ranged combat helps maintain the tension and fear of whatever monster's in your way.

A key point of my logic here is that Leon needs a gun, suggesting you need extreme means and power to kill the creature, implying a more dangerous creature. Whereas James Sunderland Can with his own hands manhandle a shark guillotine creature and fuck it.

Also This is not a claim that resident evil is scarier than silent hill. Just my two cents, I know from walkthroughs Silent Hill 2 Remake gets spooky but i couldn't get through the beginning of the game.

>>529610721
How can you feel any tension in a game with manual aiming? I'm having way too much fun to get spooked, either by popping headshots or legshots

>>529612530
The Zombies move and you can miss as they get closer. Tight spaces and multiple headshots needed, most people would miss a few times. Not everyone is MLG pro.

>>529612956
>The Zombies move and you can miss as they get closer. Tight spaces and multiple headshots needed, most people would miss a few times
Well yeah, that's part of what makes it fun

>>529610721
I think it looks perfectly fine as a game. It’s just not Silent Hill. No sleepy midwestern American town setting, no gloomy fog, no early 2000s/90s setting (afaik anyway). Should have just started up a new IP.

Silent Hill was always more melee focused than Resident Evil and SH4 already took the Silent Hill out of the franchise and it was always Team Silent's plans that future entries would take place anywhere but the town itself although SH4 still had a connection to the town through its main antagonist and you even briefly visit Toluca Lake at some point. It doesn’t look like this one is even trying to be connected at all but maybe it will be another Miranda from RE8 situation.

The only thing I’m worried about is their claim that it’s going to be even MORE action focused than SH2R which I will never for the life of me understand why everyone praises so much because of how utterly repetitive the combat is in that game which is just an objective fact. I don’t even think action is incompatible with horror like many people online seem to do I’m just worried it’ll be even more repetitive making it just boring instead especially since it looks like it's entirely melee focused but for a game that's clearly not trying to be Ninja Gaiden.

Don't know the source but I've always liked slime monsters. There is a lot of cool visual stuff they can do.

>>529501331
I just couldn't stand the way TEW2 felt in terms of atmosphere and story. Sebastian went from no personality to a very generic middle aged dad hero (this was really popular at the time, I blame The Last of Us) right down to the goofy permanently bandaged hands. The enemies range from genuinely horrifying (the tall deformed women that gasp constantly) to dumb and silly (cum zombies that bleed pink jam). The setting, a city stuck in perpetual night, floating in a dark void, with the worst horrors a human mind can imagine lurking around, was horribly underutilized and most of it is just empty with nothing spooky going on at all. Stefano is an annoying homo and the religious nigga with his fire and brimstone shit was just lame.

The intro of the game, where you are wandering through a dark and quiet hotel (?) with Stefano's fucked up "art" everywhere, the phone ringing and him laughing when you pick it up, the clock pendulum constantly making noise, the hallway full of hanging women, that was the only genuinely spooky part of the entire game. They just forgot to make a HORROR game.

This isn't even getting into the technical or gameplay issues, like the fact that the game runs like diarrhea because it doesn't use your full CPU power, the awful mouse controls, the fact that your FOV is forced so tight in first person mode, stealth being absurdly easy and OP, half the guns you get being worse than earlier ones etc.

>>529501331
I liked TEW2 significantly more than TEW1
TEW1 tried to be RE4 but also "horror" and ended up being a fucking slog with what is genuinely one of the most abysmal DLCs I've ever played(and one of the only DLCs I just dropped because fuck that) whereas TEW2 had an identity, it knew it was an action adventure game with monsters and a cute japanese girl, and it knew that it didn't need to half ass itself into any particular genre like 1

I'm sad we'll never get a 3 because 2 was so fun

>>529614482
Seconding this sentiment but also I really don't think it looks fine as a game, just generic third person shit like the remake of 2 was.

>>529610721
Silent Hill was always melee centric, the pipe you get very early in 1 shits on every enemy except the air screamers. Neither of the RE remakes you mentioned are spooky at all and the danger of combat does not contribute or detract from scariness at all.

>>529655563
I feel the only SH game I've played that was genuinely melee centric was 4, 1-3 always seemed pretty gun heavy with how much ammo it gave you(and 1 especially because every time you aimed your gun it reloaded itself)

granted 1 also had the hammer or axe or whatever it was you find in the hospital generator room that just made combat completely irrelevant with how easy it made it

>>529655737
I guess melee centric isn't the right way to put it, you can certainly blast everything, but it's much more viable than say, Resident Evil, since you actually get melee weapons that have the reach and power necessary to rely upon for most fights. You can reliably kill most monsters in the series by beating the shit out of them, while doing the same with the knife in RE is a serious challenge.

>>529656127
that's fair
though CVX's knife was insanely broken, I genuinely didn't believe when people said it was broken and when I tried it I was flabbergasted

My favorite Silent Hill? Forbidden Siren.

>>529666375
Top tier atmosphere and sightjacking is cool
Could've been more well known if it was easier, had no escort missions, focused on one playable character and less redoing the same areas
As it stands it's more like a stealth game with horror aesthetics

>>529333032 (OP)
How are we feeling about Alien Isolation 2?

>>529610721
That's what you did wrong right there,you played the remake as your first SH game,they went full re4 focusing in melee combat a lot,i personally like it over the original but they overdid the amount of melee combat they want you to do,specially near the end of the game

Should try hidden deep if you like atmospheric horror and exploration,love the grappling hook mehanics

I loved Stefano personally. I think his lines and backstory were very interesting and original. I hated how they killed him off so early. Theodore was just kind of lame though yeah and his final boss fight just being a retread of the first games ones was lazy. I also thought it was pretty scary but I’m kind of a wuss so meh.

>>529682685

>>529637375
I think it just goes to show that SH2’s story and overall presentation is just THAT good and that it’s perfectly valid to like a game just for that reason. The Silent Hill subreddit went from praising to constantly clowning on the OG while singing the remake’s praises like everything it does is an objective improvement including all the things that made the OG actually stand the test of time (aka everything but the gameplay which I will always maintain is serviceable but mediocre aside from the puzzles which are all great) but there’s simply no denying that the combat feels repetitive even if it technically plays a lot better which in itself isn’t exactly a big achievement.

The enemy and weapon variety simply doesn’t account for the massive increase in forced encounters and they even outright removed two weapons and any secondary attacks for the melee ones and the steel pipe is literally just the plank except for a slight increase in damage. It doesn't even have a longer reach like in OG. Two of the bosses also have the same spider form too which sucks since I always loved how surreal the Flesh Lips fight was for them hanging off the ceiling and sliding around.

It also has less replay value because of their decision to stretch the length of the game to 3x that of the OG and to not include the Hyper Spray or the 10 Star Ranking but I guess most people don't really care about that. They rarely finish the first playthrough anyway. The two extra endings sadly don't really make up for it either.

Everyone dunks on Guy Cihi and Donna Burke's performances but I think the voice acting is mostly fine for 2001 standards and it just fits the dreamy tone.

It's pretty sad that /vg/ doesn't seem to care as much about horror games as /tv/ does horror movies. Is it the near total lack of AAA/mainstream horror compared to cinema and nobody really cares about the indies and AAs or something? Or does it just always have to be le spooktober? The last thread followed the announcement of RE9 and reached bump limit for the first time in months but this one is struggling to stay alive as always

>>529785525

it also doesn't help that there's no actual conversation half the time

The 2013 one omits both RE Outbreaks, REmake, RE0, RE4-RE6, VTMB, both American McGee's Alice, both L4Ds, Doom 1-2 but still keeps Parasite Eve 1-2, STALKER, Pathologic, SS2, Silent Hill Homecoming, Condemned, Cold Fear and Alan Wake. They both omit Koudelka, SS1 and the first two Bioshocks as well.

>>529826859
I was gonna bring up AITD 2008 missing from both but then I remembered it's supposedly super buggy and was never fully fixed.

>>529826859
believe it or not, the outbreaks were viewed pretty negatively for a long time
but not by me, I was outbreak's top guy and I only played it online exactly once, a week before the servers shut down

>>529831621
Strange too, given the Outbreaks are pretty enjoyable.

>>529831621
I was just thinking about how silly it was to omit some of those games for I presume not being horror enough for whoever made those images but still keeping all the rest that I mentioned. I haven't actually played the Outbreaks yet I just know they're generally held in high regard by fans and are always brought up whenever Capcom shits out yet another multiplayer focused Resident Evil turd that no one cares about.

>>529785525
Is there a better resolution image? I can’t see anything

>>529806765
I’m a pussy and I still play them, actually
>>529835083
It’s especially glaring now that they’ve out of their way to reference Outbreak with a main character in the biggest game to date being the daughter of one of the main characters. Like, come on, how can they *not* be aware it’s what people want?

>>529785525
I don’t think /tv/ cares as much you’re saying either. They’re there yeah but it’s not like they’re focus point topic of discussion. That said, most games in general either suck or are average,that goes double for horror games which have to try to accomplish something, so we’re always going to be slow by our very nature.
>>529790405
Roughly from last October all the way up into the blackout in April. Getting hit with the worst tard on the board tends to do pretty severe damage to an already slow general.

I know this is a long shot but I'm close to desperation at this point. Is there anyway to get a copy of the Game of Oblivion Claire mod?

>>529837283
/tv/ has had an active horror general for years that started as October-only but proved popular enough to keep going all year-round and it regularly reaches bump limit within a day or two. I'm not sure how you can even miss it in the catalog. Outside of that the board usually just makes threads about the most mainstream current thing like Smile 2 or 28 Years Later but a lot of them also seem to just genuinely hate the genre especially /film/.

>>529845478
>a lot of them also seem to just genuinely hate the genre especially /film/.
There’s a lot of shitty horror films, and it’s probably the genre with the most varying enjoyment out of any in cinema, I wouldn’t say it’s fair to hate all of it though

>>529846728
I find that to be true of every genre to be honest but I know that trash B-movie stigma has been hard for horror to shred since critics and prestigious awards shows have historically always looked down on them hence all the "elevated horror" stuff in the last decade but since it's so cheap and easy to make you get a ton made every year which sometimes leads to gold but often not.
Sturgeon's Law was coined by a sci-fi writer but it applies to all of it: 90% of everything is garbage no matter the genre or medium.

>>529821430

You're right, it was a pretty decent platform "action explorer"

>>529845478
>but a lot of them also seem to just genuinely hate the genre especially /film/.
This is true for basically everywhere that discusses horror. Unironically, the only difference between most of /tv/ and the horror subreddit in how they treat horror media is that you can call someone a faggot on the former.

>>529855583
The horror subreddit praises and jerks off a lot of stuff like A24 slop though. You’ll get the occasional post that seems to go against the grain and reveal that something isn’t actually such a rare position but they’re still drowned out by all the praise. I assume the /tv/ equivalent is just wholesale shitting since it’s much easier to do in general on this site without having to stick to a position or worrying about updoots

It’s a grim realization once you start noticing it but the sooner you make peace with it the better. If something is really that good, it’ll usually get its fair share of credit, some way or another, some day, especially when it’s easier now more than ever to get your hands on any media you want.

simple as

is this worth buying on sale? I only played a bit of Silent Hill 1 on PSX and liked it well enough. Never played Silent Hill 2 but I could play my gf's copy on PS2 if I can track down a CRT to play it on.

>>529890707
I think you should buy it. It's a great experience in my opinion.

>>529890707
It depends. If you're not the type to mind repetitive combat and exploration and lack of replayability then by all means go for it but SH2 is primarily a narrative and atmosphere driven game and the original is still the best way to experience those aspects. There's barely any forced combat either so in case you really can't stand the jankiness of it you don't have to fight a lot. The old game is very easy though which is one aspect the remake improves upon but at the cost of repetition. I would still try the original first and then just grab the remake off of GOG.

>>529890707
Ehhh, I’d wait until it goes a bit lower. It’s a solid game for what it is but it doesn’t feel worth it like that. I’m waiting for a better one myself, hopefully they’ll bring it down this October.

Maybe it would help with engagement if people were more comfortable discussing Doom and Quake wads here too. STALKER already has its own general so that one's out and there has already been an attempt at a Doom general that failed just like the Resident Evil one and indie horror games one.

Darkwater has a lot of potential as a lethal company clone, it having more combat options and even submarine combat is very unique and cool, but it lacks content dramatically, as most lethal company clones and even lethal company itself lacks without mods.

I do like that instead of having to worry about filling some artificial "quota" it's more about worrying about your own survival with your submarine not having enough fuel.

With that being said I feel like this game would have been better as a fleshed out co-op Horror RPG or Horror survival game, rather than a Lethal Company clone.

>>529909070
I don't think a /stalker/ general can survive. It isn't a live service like the other generals and it doesn't have the waifu factor to keep it going. The only horror games that can sustain themselves are FNAF (The king of indie horror), DDLC (Wauifu factor), TCOAAL (Waifu Factor), and DBD (Live Service). I have half a mind to drop a link to this general there (in case it dies) but I'm worried it would be viewed as rude. I'm not great at this social interaction thing.

>>529909070
Pretty sure the general does allow you to discuss mods from any game doesn't it? I mean theoretically we'd be able to even discuss minecraft horror mods.

>>529915457
There’s already a Stalker general and it’s doing well enough, that’s what he said

>>529915670
If some autist manages do a somewhat decent and atmospheric horror mod for Minecraft, sure?

>>529920925
They do exist, outside of the clickbait youtube videos/tiktoks there's ways to turn minecraft into honestly a better horror experience than many horror games I have played, but that's more to do with most horror games being unity/unreal slop.

>>529915457
It comes and goes but the STALKER generals are usually fairly active. Hell even the Poppy Playtime General is still going but the Mascot Horror General and FNAF generals have both died. There are many opportunities for us to expand this general's focus beyond just Resident Evil, Silent Hill and whatever indies we can find on Steam that not everyone seems interested in playing anyway if they're obscure enough but Poppy Playtime, DBD, TCOAAL and STALKER are all already taken.

>>529925280
Actually, the FNAF general is still active. They just fucked with the title to make it harder to search for. No idea why they would do such a thing. Here it is >>529741163

>>529915670
I was more so talking about how those games by themselves aren't thought of as horror by people here even though most considered especially classic Doom as being horror games in the 90s. If you read The Doom Bible, Masters of Doom or John Romero's autobiography they talk about how they always intended for Doom to be a fast paced horror shooter and I think Quake is just the natural evolution of that with its Gothic aesthetics and eerie NIN score. Romero also recently appeared in the Terrorbytes documentary that was a retrospective on horror gaming as a whole and classic Doom gets talked about there and not just Doom 3 which in the modern day conversation is the only time Doom and horror gets used in the same sentence which is a shame.

So I guess what I'm saying is that I think we should be able to talk about all kinds of wads and mods even the non horror ones as long as the games themselves count as horror. I think that's the main issue is that gamers aren't always certain of what can be considered horror because it's not a gameplay genre unless it's survival horror and action and horror are also mutually exclusive according to some. Some might also make a distinction between horror themed and horror which I personally don't the same way I don't make a distinction between film and movie even though someone like Tarantino clearly does when he says Jaws is the GOAT movie but not the best film as if that means anything. Castlevania is pretty obviously a horror series in my mind for this reason since they're basically just old school Universal Monsters and Hammer Horror films but with lots of action. Idk but it's just a suggestion to maybe breathe some new life into this general.

Do you guys think any other games from the 80s/90s will get a revival like Resident Evil/Silent Hill had?

>>529940328
Probably not. I was really hopeful for the Alone in The Dark game to lead to a revival. That wasn’t meant to be evidently.

>>529941197
Interesting fact. I'm reading the official strategy guide for Alone in the Dark 1+2, and it has a full backstory on Edward Carnby, including the fact that he was a US Marine. I love that kind of deep lore.

>>529920925
>>529921268
Despite basically becoming a new means for low effort engagement baiting by some people, The Broken Script and similar mods like NoMoon.jar or CRYPTID remain the most effective current Minecraft horror mods. It probably also helps that the very nature of these mods - being primarily slowburn but increasingly ramping up in difficulty and threats to everything in the world - along with the fact that they fundamentally alter and break the game world makes them very much anathema to clickbaiting content farmers who mostly do not wish for their worlds to get corrupted beyond repair, or deleted, or for them to end up permanently banned from them.

Unironically some mods labelled as "dwellers" not all of them, but dweller like mods, can add a lot to minecraft usually with other mods and atmospheric changes, like mods that make audio/lighting more realistic, shaders, etc.

Having one being in the world can add a lot of atmosphere to minecraft, yes slowburn horror mods or things not explicitly dwellers are also very good, or have the potential to be aswell, but I think a lot of people dismiss minecraft horror mods because they play them in packs filled with tons of them which honestly just overwhelm the experience, or see horrible tiktok/youtube videos about them.

I'm sure some people have also genuinely had a horrible experience with a minecraft horror mod don't get me wrong, but I doubt many of the people who shit talk them have even tried one, let alone attempted to make it better or more fun with other mods.

>>529929148
>John Romero's autobiography
It's called Doom Guy: Life in First Person. I've read it and it actually provides some interesting tidbits about id's early history. Romero allegedly suffers from hyperthymesia so he's able to recall everything in great detail including his own thought process behind Doom's design choices at the time they were making it. I would recommend giving it a read to anyone interested in gaming history, Doom or Quake's troubled development.

Would you be ripped out of a horror game's atmosphere if the way you dealt with monsters is silly? Like if a game had silent hill esque vibrating ghosts and monsters would they stop being disturbing to you if instead of fighting them you just exorcise them by going up to them and telling them to go home?

>>529976868
I mean, yeah, that'd be kind of anti climactic

>>529965490
>but I think a lot of people dismiss minecraft horror mods because they play them in packs filled with tons of them which honestly just overwhelm the experience, or see horrible tiktok/youtube videos about them.
That's exactly it. They simply get overstimulated because of all the modpacks going around these days that are just stuffed to the gills with the fucking things and because shitty content farms find them easily exploitable. A couple dwellers or dweller-like mods in conjunction with some other stuff makes for a pretty tense experience, without overstimulating anyone to the point of desensitization. I personally find the Mangled Hound and the Anomaly to be pretty cool, as well as the Slumbering Omen (though that one isn't a Dweller mod).

Put on your glasses and use the zoom function anon. It says the image was made in 2009 so it's as good as it gets.

I don't understand why KT refuses to port Fatal Frame 2's wiimake when it runs on the same engine as MotLE so there's no way they don't have the source code if they had it for a game from 2008. They must've been disatisfied with the sales of that one since it was an actual remaster unlike MoBW but they still keep churning out Atelier games even though they sell on average as much as Fatal Frame does.

I'm already chickenshit to horror, but I was also absolutely disgusted at how much of a pigsty the entire base was when I started playing. I'm barely 10 days in but went through grueling effort to clean the place up.
I think the psychological horror of the demons/aliens will be much worse if they start littering the place and dirtying everything. I might genuinely quit if something coats the base in garbage like it was at the start.

I played DC1 last year after that survey Capcom did and t b h I think it's kind of mediocre. There's a lot of puzzle solving, lots of backtracking and not a lot of enemy variety either which would be fine if you at least didn't deal with them all the same way with your shotgun and darts. The only things DC1 really has going for it is that PS1 era comfiness to it and it actually does nail that horror atmosphere too.

So any good horror VNs that you guys would recommend?

I only know of Higurashi, Umineko, Saya no Uta, Spirit Hunter, Danganronpa and the Zero Escape series. You can find most of them on Steam.

Re4 remake kinda mid ngl. Ruined Salazar, way too easy, cut away a lot of the dialogue that gave the original its charm. Most egregiously of all it somehow pushes ashley-leon shipping way more than the original too, Ashley is even thirstier for leon in the remake. They should just have Leon marry Claire Redfield in canon (the only pairing with actual chemistry and makes the most sense) and be done with the gay shipping bait.

You know I just watched a walk-through of both the Retronomicon & WINE dub of Dead of the Brain, and I think I prefer the Retronomicon version despite it being supposedly less accurate to the source material. On a grammar level, it's inferior, with there being more mistakes than the Wine dub, which only has one.

However, the Retronomicon dub on average has a greater emotional resonance than the WINE dub. There's a variety of subtle touches that I prefer, but my favorite is the subtle theme surrounding the value of life that's lost in the WINE dub.

In the climax of the game, the main antagonist is a bitter nihilist who believes that life is an inherently miserable experience and enjoys seeing people suffer in agony like he has. Everyone else in the scene dies with regret at their unfulfilled dreams, with the detective, who, despite putting on a brave face, died screaming for help with him being unable to avenge his family, and the girl who sacrificed her life to defeat the main antagonist. Calling for the main protagonist to live a happy life with his girlfriend despite the fact that she fell in love with him. This senseless loss of life made the protagonist resolve to live a happy life with her girlfriend to honor the dead.

In contrast, the WINE dub has the antagonist be a card-carrying psychopath who murders people for fun; his plan is mildly less sophisticated (he placed multiple snares in the Retronomicon unlike the WINE dub, where he only placed one). Basically, in the Retronomicon dub, the dude's a sophisticated mastermind with depth, while in the WINE dub, he's a one-dimensional upjumped brute. Additionally, in the WINE dub, everyone's too stoic about their deaths, with their final words being entirely centered on the protagonist's relationship with his girlfriend, with the ending reinforcing this further. (The post's getting too long, so I'll continue this analysis in my next post).

>>530217995
In the Retronomicon dub, the protagonist swears that he'll live like every year is his last, while in the WINE dub, he swears that he wants to live with his girlfriend for decades on end.

Basically, the Retronomicon dub presents a clear theme that pervades throughout the work, while the WINE dub makes the game a half-baked love story that simplifies most aspects as a sacrifice to it.

>>530218352
Also, as a final remark. Schrödinger (Retronomicon) is a way cooler name for an undead cat than Kitty (WINE).

what if the novistadors oviposited ashley hahaha
as a joke haha wouldn't that be funny

It's frankly impressive how much of the oppressive, horrible atmosphere of this place goes away once all the garbage, filth and grime is removed.
combined with the soothing presence of the emotional support crowbar(tm) this place feels downright cozy. I'm not even that terrified of the aliens anymore.

It also doesn't help that I have had barely anything happen other than 2 scary fucking events on day ONE. It's currently day 14 and the most weird shit I had happen was that I saw the arrow ships twice now, once in the sky and once on the ground (got two arrow ship minis off of that). Should I turn on the funny setting? It says it's not reccomended on first playthroughs and I'm generally weak to horror but I'm starting to feel TOO comfortable.

Nightdive make faithful remasters but they're still planning on making a full blown remake of SS2 as well which was much more understandable for SS1 due to the way it was designed around M+KB but they haven't even started development on it yet and considering how long it took them just to release this one I'm not sure they will actually go through with it anyway. The SS1 remake was announced way back in 2015 and didn't get a release until 2 years ago. I get it though they're a small but passionate studio.

Honestly makes me wish they would get hired by Konami to remaster and port Silent Hill 1-4 on modern systems and use their time and resources on that instead since they have a lot of experience with reverse engineering and Bluepoint belong to Sony now.

Does playing Bioshock and SOMA also do it for you?

>>530233106
Bioshock no, SOMA yes. Honestly it's partially a matter of visuals, the most common thing is if I can't see. The mission in new vegas where you swim to lift the bomber used to scare the shit out of me. A similar emotion happens from noclipping in games and you're just in a grey void. Sometimes I find worse graphics actually freak me out more in this context, which is weird. So being unable to see the floor freaks me out, and doom's idea of the eldritch horror world is that it should have oceans that never end that absorb sunken boats from all over the world, which is very scary to me

>>530252589
I'd say it's horror. Even ignoring the more giant monsters, it does too much in the way of enemies designed to make you afraid for it to not count. After enough time in game you start getting garbled radio messages from bioengineered killing machines that have killed all the other survivors but yourself and it's pretty freaky. And it's very very good. It avoids all the common survival game pitfalls with a premade map, and a very definitive ending, while offering a very rewarding feeling of exploration and progress

A lot of the random events that give you save errors are very subtle, so you likely won't notice them. The game gets *noticeably* less subtle with shit later on in the story mode.

Also there's tons of ways to optimize point economy to the point the challenge of the gameplay is a joke. The fun is finding out how. :)

>>529471885
I'm in the same boat as you, see >>530223940, my only events were on literal day 1, once while I was at a satellite a black silhouette spun around me very fast before dissappearing, and at night, when the shooting start happened, a loud KATHUNK noise began playing and the night became pitch black, with white eyes on the outside looking at me before dissappearing again. Since then no other real spooky events.
>ideal sustainable food source
14 days in, I have ~30 cans of canned food/peaches that I've gathered from all over the map + ~10 MREs, even after I sold some 20 other MREs because I had too many. I honestly don't think I'll need to buy food for a long time. The canned peaches even give you stamina in addition to food.
>how I'm supposed to lug stuff from other locations when inventory fills up quick
I mean, you'll keep revisiting these locations on a playthrough so I figure you just take the most valuable things peacemeal as the days go on. Some things aren't worth carrying though like toolboxes or gas cans. Though there is a trick: If you buy a hook (50 points), you can attach your luggage bag to the ATV and use it to carry way more than you do normally.

Some stuff I figured out:
*Crowbar is exceptionally useful. break boxes extremely fast, very convenient. Also very strong mental buff. Gordon Freeman clearly felt no fear with this thing.
*Early game, you're better off cleaning your base. A single item box full of garbage will net you ~400 points, which is way more than you'll get in early game signal processing. Just do daily tasks and then play cleaning simulator till your base is sparkling. Probably some ~300-400points a day doing this.
*Upgrade transformer and server stability ASAP. Less time spent fixing shit is more time spent making money
*Buy the digital map or, if you don't mind meta-gaming, keep a tab open with the map of the satellites/transformers. Plot routes with the smallest distance possible to optimise your time and fuel.

you rat bastard you weren't here before
hell I'm not even sure what happened to the dozen or so mannekins that were inside the base but I'm glad they're gone how the hell did you get in here?

right when you get used to them, some dumb shit is basically guaranteed to happen. i recently had one of those fuckers fall through the vent above the work desk and it nearly gave me a heart attack

>>530321719
oh my god there's a vent above the work desk
ohhhhhh fuuuuuuuuuckkkkkkkkkkkkk

>>530315859

a fucking meteor just hit my base
I ragdolled way back, even bled on the ground due to impact
but evertying else is untouched

oooooooooohhhhhh
NOW I KNOW WHAT THE WOOD CHIPPER IS FOR

you can also get a lighter if you dont want the chipper to hog up all that space, its good for a couple other things as well

ok i cannot figure this shit out

okay i finished the demo. that puzzle is the first and only time that the puzzle doesn't close itself with a success noise after solving it, so i kept thinking i hadn't figured it out. but it turns out you orient the dials, close the thing, then go somewhere else to pull a lever. frustrating that it worked that way with only that puzzle. still not entirely sure how the solution paired up with the clue paper though

I was told there would be alien babes

I bought the woodchipper because it might also be a very convenient source of income (put in scrap, get garbage bags to sell)

>>530351536
I fucking died driving my ATV in the dark to fix the transformer
it was NOT at ~13%. I check it daily. Fuck you aliens.
that's enough VoTV for today

>>530298615
>insulting your guards
You fool, they're your first warning system.

>>530340673
It's a poorly designed puzzle and I will argue with the devs up and down over it. Pseudo trial and error that requires you run somewhere else and pull a lever just to see what your changes did is boring and lame.

>>530353957
It's fucky old school horror game puzzle logic. Didn't think it would return in the modern day.

ok i picked up sh2r. did the original have a minimum of 1 enemy every block? the sheer amount of combat is tiring. also are there audio cues beyond the radio for when you're going to be attacked? The music is weird, it keeps amping up as if an attack is going to happen but nothing happens

>>530367856
original had door transitions and enemies were easy to avoid, so you'd finish the game with like 50 enemies killed compared to the remake's 350
>also are there audio cues beyond the radio for when you're going to be attacked?
aside from the sounds the monsters themselves make? no, goes for the original as well
spooky music may play even when no monsters are around, that's true for every silent hill

I used to want to make my own horror parody game as well as an indie horror platform fighter crossover.
But should i even try at this point when i have become so disillusioned with the community, industry and all who used to inspire me?

>>530375305
no. make art.

the aliens have anti-theft measure on their chest (I think?) and I got zapped
I then ran away and as I got back home, filled up my drive box and when I went outside to call in the drone one of the bastards was THERE
IT BROKE MY FIRE EXTINGUISHER AND THREW MY THINGS AT ME
it's invisible, I think. I threw a molotov at it and it dissappeared
Do I need to start mass producing mollies to defend myself against bastard squatter aliens? I didn't think there'd be actual combat in this game

I think the new Outlast Trials prime assets are the most grotesque thing in the series so far. Incestuous conjoined twins obsessed with separating and restitching people and chemicals.

>>530426906
im fairly certain this is the only thing thatll force you to reorganize your base. unless theres some sort of other event on the same level, this should be it

>>530427327
I think TEW1 was a solid 7/10 but it's no RE4

>>530457608
I'd honestly give it a 6, it felt like it wanted to be RE4 if they tried to force fit it into a last of us-shaped hole so it got all mangled

at least TEW2 was baller

Finally got around to watching the trailer. Pretty neat concept. Where does it say they stitch together though?

I really hope one day someone makes a cutscene skip mod for Dead Space 2. I love the game so much, but needing to sit through over an hour of unskippable cutscenes every time I replay the game is just a mood killer.

Bump

>>530521216
not being able to skip cutscenes in games really is a frustrating decision

I feel like I may have started off on the wrong foot with these aliens
I have decided to ask for forgiveness by giving them a homemade burger (I figured out how to make one) and one of the toy ships that I got from them earlier.

Dead Space 1 & 2
Callisto Protocol
Alan Wake 2
Condemned: Criminal Origins and Condemned 2: Bloodshot (2nd game was never ported to PC just FYI)
System Shock 2
The Last of Us Part 1
Cold Fear
Alone in the Dark: The New Nightmare (first one is decent enough too but has aged like milk so wouldn't recommend it unless you're a true fan and want to experience the origins of the genre in all of its janky glory. You can get the 2008 reboot running with a patch for the PC version as well but I've not heard good things about it. Haven't played the 2024 reboot yet either but I've heard it's alright just nothing special)
Dying Light 1
Deadly Premonition 1
Daymare 1998
DreadOut 1 & 2
Saw: The Video Game + Saw II: Flesh & Blood (the first game has long since been delisted from Steam and the 2nd was never ported outside of 7th gen consoles just like Condemned 2)
STALKER 1 & 2
Prey 2017
Alien: Isolation
Signalis
Alisa
Crow Country
Amnesia: The Bunker
Darkwood

I would also recommend Clock Tower 1, Penumbra, Amnesia: The Dark Descent, SOMA and Outlast 1 if you don't mind the complete lack of combat. Observer is also really good in this style but it's a pure walking simulator there's no survival aspect to it at all at least from what I can recall.

Not that much of interest has happened this day, but I managed to finish the daily task at 10AM and now had some time to further reorganize my base. I decided to finish up all the recycling that could be done with the trash around the base. Now I have this massive pile of scrap, mostly metal, electronic, plastic and rubber but also plenty of wood and some paper...
So.
What the fuck am I supposed to do with this? The only recipe I figured out is metal + electronic = 4 drives which is admittedly pretty good, but I still have a ton of scrap laying around. Help?

the weapon upgrade was a letdown

Good night.

I want a game that plays virtually identical to tarkov in terms of looting and building guns, but it's a horror game with zombies and monsters and bears oh my

>>530607153
describe tarkov's looting mechanics that you like

>>530602043
It's the same as it was in RE4 just without exclusive upgrades but you could also upgrade Ethan's physical capabilities in a limited way unlike RE4

Also if I remember right you can find/buy weapon parts that function like exclusive upgrades anyway so I'm not really sure what the issue is here desu

>>530610028
honestly basically just state of decay's looting mechanics except it's all preset locations rather than randomized stuff

>>530643557
I'm playing the GOG version and it seems fine, but the controls are ass. Granted I'm only about an hour in but I got lost because I didn't hear the phone in the apartment and the auto targeting got me killed on the escalators with the wall men knocking my ass down.

>>530652830
>"get lots of molotovs"
>ogey
>look at recipe
>requires paper trash
>I have compulsively cleaned the entirety of my base
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

against my better judgement I have gone into the base's vent to look for paper trash
I have found things I didn't like up there but also plenty of paper
I've managed to craft 6 molotovs but I've now run outta bottles
is this enough? Do I need to rush something else? shit I'm not built for this

After sucessfuly rushing the shit out of the daily task I managed to buy 10 beers and the fuel to use them, somehow duplicating this delivery as I saved. I didn't have much time to think about it as I am still panicking about an imminent threat coming to kill me so I made 14 molotov before I elected to GET THE FUCK AWAY from there towards the only other place that could possibly be good:
THE ALIEN BASE.
YES I'M STAYING HERE.
ALIENS ARE GOOD
ROBOT ZOMBIES ARE NOT
I GAVE THEM A PARTLY EATEN SHRIMP PIZZA AND SOME SHRIMP I HAD LEFT FROM MAKING IT BECAUSE I'VE SEEN THE EMPTY PACKETS HERE BEFORE
I HOPE THEY HELP

I will not go back to my base
Not in this fucking dark
Not with that thing out there
I'm gonna sleep right here
these round couches can be slept on
thank christ

>>530702051
wall lamps dont actually need to be plugged in or anything to work
do with this information what you must

Nothing happened.
The aliens let me sleep on their treehouse undisturbed, even as they apparently continued building it as I slept.
apparently humanoid? They apparently don't like the guy in the poster too much, if the knives are anything to go by. I'll no longer call them illegal aliens, they're good people, clearly, if only they didn't steal things. As compensation I'll steal one of those knives for self-defense purposes.

I still don't wanna go back to base but I gotta do my job
I will never go without these molotovs on my belt anymore, just to be sure.
>>530704003
Oh yeah, I've also seem some outdoor lamps flicker off at night. Yeah I think I'll buy a ton of lamps once I have some spare cash.

went back to base
barely started working
power shut off
it's stupid foggy outside
I ran to the fucking tower
fuckkkkkk this man

I don't fucking know where it is
Jesus

>>530705078
no way lmao, i was gonna jokingly ask in my post about the lamps when the last time you checked the transformers was and now this happens. sorry anon, i probably cursed you or something

>>530705832
>I don't fucking know where it is
The radar tracks it. Look for a black dot on the screen.

>>530705772
good thing I have 14 now
if that don't work
uh
crowbar
>>530705965
I do tr.checks daily, and maxing out transformer quality was the first thing I did exactly because I would shit my pants if the lights went out at night or something. iirc it was at ~90,~80,~70 This was anomalous shit, like >>530351536 here, where I actually loaded a save to check transformer status and the one that "failed" (sabotage) was at like 60%
>>530706506
very important information, thank you
I don't think I ever looked at the radar
Are black dots in by default or should I purchase the radar color upgrade? I think mine only shows red dots

So, do you guys think that the new Silent Hill will be good?

>>530715181
It'll at worst be inoffensive; however, I'm skeptical of them capturing the feel of the franchise since they're setting it in Japan.

>>530707291
answering my own question: all dots on the radar were red till I upgraded "radar colors" and "radar entity diference". I'll admit, I was secretly hoping this thing would despawn or something. Wishful thinking. Thankfully it appears to be stationary for now? As long as it stays there I ain't gonna complain.

>>530722835
is entity radar difference the one that beeps at you? im pretty sure i had it for about 30 seconds before i just sold it off

>>530723042
I'm not sure, if you mean the loud BEEP BEEP BEEP that happens whenever something new shows up you can disable that using the commands on the terminal. I think the entity difference is what gives the colors several distinct meaning rather than just blue for cameras and red for everything else.
I think the source of the alarm is upgrading "radar history".

>>530727086
id have to double check my upgrade configuration. ive got the colors and everything, just no beeper or alarm or whatever

I was preparing to leave for the usual daily task grind.
BUT NOW THERE'S MUSIC PLAYING
VAGUELY THREATENING, COMBAT MUSIC PLAYING
IS IT HAPPENING?

>>530729226
what day are you on?

>>530730884
I think it was 21. I fell off the fucking tower and noew need time to breathe

>>530731375
you still have time to prepare

>>530732753
man what the fuck is that music about then
it's way too instense, nothing like ever played before.

motherfucker
It is you
You're really up now
Ok lend me a hand here can the arrow ship aliens help me with this thing?
They don't seem hostile now that I've got bigger shit to worry about and I'm frankly grasping at straws to get me an advantage here

>>530715181
F?
Well, I think it'll be better than downpour, that's about it

i got it
I think I'm about to pass out irl but I got it
why the fuck did it have a fucking 3 stage boss fight like a nintendo character
I tried fighting it without the molotovs at first
It was easy
till the seconds stage, where I had to sprint to juke its attacks
then the third stage was stupid fucking fast and I didn't stand a chance to go melee, so I just spammed all the molotovs I had at it
It still hit me a lot and I had spent my medikit already so I had to resort to bandages before jumping into the river
turns out the river made it slow and the molotovs can still detonate underwater, somehow
it's fucking dead for sure now
it also dropped a shining blue thing on the water along with a bunch of regular scrap
It's a radioactive capsule
I took it but I think I'm gonna drop it in the basement or something
What am I supposed to do with it?

>>530734427
>Ok lend me a hand here can the arrow ship aliens help me with this thing?
They can help you with ANOTHER type of threat, but not this one.

>>530668186
i wanted to like this game a lot more than i did :/

>>530738269
Differing tastes: It's easily one of my favourite releases of the past 6(+) years, but I can understand there being divisive elements in it not everyone appreciated. A lot of the game was just incredibly solid to me and tbqh we should have gotten more DLCs by means of the slide projector.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8EJufYOzp8U
But horror games do be like that, At least it's regularly cheap to pick up on sales if people want to try it out.

>>530738269
>>530742006
I thought it was alright for what it was. Better than AW at least. Not so sure about it being horror. I think horror elements fits better.

board seems fast today

>>530755357
Probably gacha schizos up to their usual BS.

>>530715181
The biggest red flags for me are them boasting it's going to be even heavier on the combat than SH2R and being entirely melee focused and only having 6 confirmed weapons to choose from (so far at least) and the $80 price tag. Konami is being way too confident because of one modest success without properly understanding that the market for AAA horror games was already niche when games were $20 cheaper last year. EA and Krafton made the same mistakes in 2023 and we'll most likely never get another Dead Space ever again as a result. Resident Evil is generally the exception to this rule.

Setting it in Japan is risky but I'm fine with it as long as there is some connection to the town of Silent Hill at some point. Okamoto's idea of "Silent Hill" being a phenomenon that can occur anywhere in the world without any connection to the town even just through a character or an artifact or something is stupid. It doesn't work at all because it's not like Resident Evil's bioterrorism that can go global and keep going forever and ever.

I hope it's successful though. If Konami are going to continue licensing the IP out rather than develop in-house I'd rather have them stick with East Asian devs over Western ones who think they always know better. Silent Hill just like Resident Evil is American horror meets Japanese sensibilities.

Thoughts on Stephanie23's content?

>>530778914
>and the $80 price tag
That’s the real kicker here. It’s already clearly an experimental title breaking new ground for the franchise that is bound to not jive well with a lot of people, and then they throw that on top of it. I mean come on. Sometimes I forget this company is in its current state because of its comically bad business decisions.

SHARK DENTIST
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VdGbDr18LOU

In the interest of getting some discussion going I'm curious to know if anyone here considers Arkham Asylum a lowkey horror game? The Scarecrow segments, Killer Croc, Victor Zasz, all those dead bodies that keep piling up as the game progresses, the schizo inmates that charges at you and jumpscares you sometimes, the body horror Titans, the general atmosphere. There's a lot to love as a horror fan

>>530912454
>all the comments immediately giving the game shit because of how real world sharks work
Lmao

terminator resistance is a ridiculously janky game, the fact it came out like half a decade after alien isolation and yet looks worse is almost impressive
but i'm a terminator mark and i'm loving it

After separated ways, would you give M-two another remake to work?

>>530911465
OUR HEROES...and Wesker.

Again

>>530916393
The Croc segment definitely always struck me as horror inspired. Batman in general has always leaned into horror stuff more than most mainstream capeshit, right down to Arkham being taken straight from Lovecraft. Don’t know if I would consider it a horror game but the elements are there.

>>530916393
The only thing that stops it from being a horror game is the Riddler's challenges; however, otherwise it nails a grim atmosphere that, while not scary, is aesthetically creepy.

sex with... uh... the cockroaches that attack sherry in that one fan vent

>>530977397

I wanna mess around with Code Veronica X on Dolphin so I tried applying the difficulty select mod to fuck around on very easy mode but I get black screen every time after exist the pause menu.

Any idea what could be causing this issue? I'm using the Gecko code I got from within Dolphin

>>530926923
Even though both franchises have a lot of shit in between them I actually think Alien has more good than bad entries including the video games. Alien: Isolation is a masterpiece it's a crime that it didn't sell that well because the market just isn't there for these types of games relative to how expensive they are to make. That's one area where horror movies will always have the leg up on horror gaming.

I really hope the sequel proves more successful. I like indies and AAs but it's just not the same experience as a good AAA with higher production values.

>>530989378
Speaking of AA did you guys know that ILL turned out not to be vaporware after all? Some of the stuff still looks kind of scripted (not as much as the first trailer though) but I'm hopeful. They even got backed by the Atomic Heart publisher Mundfish

https://youtu.be/Ldb4yfUZXF4

For comparison this is the first ""gameplay"" trailer they released in 2021: https://youtu.be/Bp33UdI50ko

>>531005731
Night, anon.

>>530996991
Yeah. We were talking about this in our first thread back. The tank guy definitely looks scripted but I’m hoping they can actually make a game now and not just a movie game with Mundfish’s help.

>>530985413
I'm running out of things to have sex with anon give me a break

>>530916393
I thought the first Scarecrow segment was pretty unsettling because you aren't really expecting it

>>531010431
How far along in development do you think they were before they partnered up with Mundfish?

>>531031891
would

>>531024894
No clue. I can’t imagine it was very far though, the gameplay they showed last month is far and above the most they’ve shown since it was announced. Thankfully it doesn’t seem to be a very long game so hopefully these added resources will enable them to get out in a timely manner (while hopefully still being good of course).

>>531035101
But what have they been doing all this time then? They must've done more than just making scripted cutscenes to show off every couple of years.

>>531035782
Most likely building models and set pieces.

>>531037834
Doesn't that mean they might still be years off? I think a game of this scope can best be compared to Scorn which took 9 years to develop and was only like a 5-8 hour long game with no replay value to speak of.

Still think it was a good game though.

>>531038907
>Doesn't that mean they might still be years off?
Possibly. The first trailer for Atomic Heart was in 2018 and it came out in 2023, so a 6 year gap. ILL was first teased in 2021 and has since gotten more news about it, so a shorter timeframe and it has am ore developed Mundfish backing it now - so if it even remotely got any decent development in from its first announcement till now, then we might have a chance of seeing it sooner rather than later.

i want to play more silent hill but a sense of unease prevented me from doing so yesterday. why does this only happen with silent hill? i was always excited to see what was next for me in RE games but sh just gives me a sense of dread i have to work through

RISE

for what purpose did they make remake angela so fuckable

>>531048537
Silent Hill at its core is psychological horror, so they're constantly trying to keep the audience unsettled with an oppressive atmosphere and dark themes that are real.

Resident Evil is a lot more cartoonish in comparison since it revolves around foiling the mastermind of the week's evil plan by shooting his henchmen. It thus generally has a more optimistic tone, and it's more of a thriller than being actually scary.

>>530996991
Nice to see that this project is still going forward.

>>531062359
I guess that's what happens when a game gets HD graphics.

is it just because silent hill is a video game that we find ammo, health drinks and solutions to puzzles in it or is sh not an entirely malevolent force? does it actually want those that wander in to seek absolution

>>531048537
It's because the town itself feels like a conscious, unknowable entity that doesn't like you
So they can add however many goofy things in the game they want, UFOs, dogs, heather beams etc. the sense of unease doesn't go away
Except when they decided to turn it into a therapist town that wants to cure you of your guilt, that totally dispels the unease for me

>>531074291
>and it's more of a thriller than being actually scary.
Just because you didn't find something scary doesn't mean it's a thriller.

you know what? I'm going to say it.
I love boats. more horror games should be set on boats. or at sea. under sea, too.

carrier? kino
deep fear? iconic
dead aim? genuinely the only good RE survivor game
REv1? sure only MOST of it takes place on a boat but it's still one of the few games I sat down and beat in one go(the other being DMC1)

barotrauma is an absolute gemerald if you and the boys get together and crew your shitpile, moreso if one of you gets the autism and builds a sub or 3

I did not care for RE4.

I loved RE4 but acknowledge that it killed horror games in the grand scheme of things by making them be more like 4 rather than 1-3

>>531062359
They didn’t?
>>531074291
Plenty of moments in RE are scary though. Even with its B horror movie atmosphere, you’ll scarcely find someone who played the originals way back when they first released who didn’t shit themselves at something in it,

>>531104926
Nemesis breaking into the police station made me fucking jump.

>>531103337
For you anon
Also Echo Night 1 and NightCry

>>531106556
I used to own echo night but sold it after I played echo night beyond(which made me not want to collect games anymore) and also it jumped like 400% in price during 2020

I sure hope it's not as slow as beyond
that game was frustrating

>>531107082
Watch some youtube footage before making a decision
At least ps1 games are easy to emulate

Are any of the Resident Evil remakes worth playing?

I like 2, 3, 4, and Revelations. I've never played 6 and only like 20 minutes of 7. Never played 8, saw 5 on Youtube when it came out.

What would /horg/ recommend as the best modern (last 5 years) horror entries? I haven't really played anything outside of the big boys

>>531109194
>last 5 years
I like alisa and hollowbody, but I haven't played hollowbody since release

>>531108271
you don't like re1?

>>531108271
Yes. All of them are worth it. 2 and 3 you can get for dirt cheap now. 4 is worth playing at least once since it actually does have some added content in place of the cut content.

I think RE4's horror factor is pretty underrated desu

>>531123551
Likewise. Regeneradors genuinely were fucking creepy. Even the remake didn’t mess them up. Arguably even creepier actually

Still can't believe this is getting a game.

With CRT shader.

ok. i'm glad you're having fun, anon

>>531139982
I am, I just finished RE1 and RE2 Leon A, I have never played a tank-controls survival horror game in my life and have disregarded them as too dated

Apparently it really clicks with me and is one of the best gaming experiences I've ever had

One thing few people have probably ever noticed is Tyrant's ass cheeks are fully textured he got that dumpy

Unfortunately Sherry wasn't in Leon A

The internet nerds told me Claire A/Leon B is canon but then why is Leon Disc 1 if you're not supposed to play him first, obviously I'm going to side with Capcom over internet nerds

>>531142760
Both are equally canon

>>531141869
>I have never played a tank-controls survival horror game in my life
>it really clicks with me and is one of the best gaming experiences I've ever had
ahhh, to play the first three REs, first four SHs, first three Fatal Frames and first two Forbidden Sirens again for the first time
I envy you

>>531141869
tyrant got dat butt and is shooting smoke from his groin

>>531142760
>>531142838
Leon A/Leon B is the canon route

>COD zombies, but it's not 100-300gb depending on the game

There that's my pitch for Sker Ritual.

Installed all together with all currently released free maps (not sure if there will be paid ones), the game is 20gb

>>529610721
>modern horror being good
lol, lmao even. the only saving grace is that Ryukishi is allegedly the lead writer for this game.

>>531152258

>>531103337
>Deep Fear
Based.
>Barotrauma
I'd argue Baro is more suspenseful than horror, and even then it becomes less so when you get used to the flow of the game. It's still fun as hell to run a campaign with friends, though, so long as said autism doesn't lead to a sub that turns the game into easy mode.

>No guys, Wesker didint fuck Rebecca
>Anyway so he has her pic on his desk, and she has a setting literally called "wesker mode"

>>531195261
wesker is way too autistic to fuck anyone. he probably had the picture because of some team building exercise and he figured he should take it so as to keep up appearances of being one of them

99% it's Sissyschizo trying to reassert himself here.

>>531207923
>>531209683
Oh yeah, it's 100% Sissyschizo. The random uncapitalized shit in >>531201150 and him talking about Wesker (he did this shit in the early threads when he first showed up here) makes it obvious.

I'm replaying Dead Space Remake, and one thing I detest they kept from the previous games is the incapacity to skip cutscenes, and I don't understand why they do this... It just makes replays take longer, specially that intro. Unskippable cutscenes should've never been a thing.

At least there's a glitch to skip video/audio logs, which unlocks doors faster...

>>531207923

Does this mean /horg/ will die again?

>>531216752
If it does, we at least have our bunker. But between TCM finally getting all support pulled on it, the fact our threads can die here but continue at the other place (which has moderation), and how spotty his shitposting has been ever since the big site nuke - with him being a lot more unstable in his spamming in /tesg/ for example -, I think we might be good for now.

>>531218872
I hope you don't mind me asking, but what bunker are you guys talking about? I'm a newbie, so I'm not aware of it.

>>531218872
Btw, why do you call him sissyschizo exactly?

>>531219340
For two years he obsessively spammed some ugly man jawed freak from the Texas Chainsaw Massacre game whose name was Sissy. He’s a schizo because he’s obsessed with jawlines, bone structure, and a litany of other random shit he also spams at random

>>531220219
Two years? I don't remember there being any schizos when we first started two years ago

>>531220743
He only started posting here sometime last October. He comes from /dbdg/ (formerly /assg/) but regularly shat up other generals like /tesg/ and /gta/ and more recently /mrg/ and us.

>>531224031
So what's the problem then? If those generals can all survive having a schizo why can't this one? I'm not defending him but it's depressing that the general horror focused thread is the only one that has regular posters fleeing because of one schizo who is probably easy to ignore.

>>531225549
He’s not easy to ignore. We’re a slow general. Those other ones are fast. Slower places are always vulnerable to bad actors. Anytime he incessantly shits things up it has a noticeable impact whereas in those other generals it can usually be drowned out because people are talking about stuff. Mind you it took months before he started having a tangible effect on the threads but once it started happening it was bad.

>>531219158
It's the 7+1 chan place (specifically, their "moe" domain). Can't say it directly here.

>>531227124
I know they usually don't care unless their hand is forced (ie. nudity, CP) but does reporting him not work?

>>531228939
It doesn't. He jumps IPs even when it does, but the vast majority of the them you're the one liable to eat shit it you call him out or report him.

t. guy who got 3 days from all boards for calling out his bullshit

>>531229829
But other threads have to have reported him frequently too right?

>>531228939
>>531231338
He’s been banned hundreds of times over the past few years, he just ban evades like most schizos on this board. It’s easier now than ever since they removed the email verification (which also had a way to work around it mind you)

Ehhhh, in AI’s case it was more to do with the fact that IGN wrote a shitty nonsensical review back when lots of people actually listened to what they had to say. Myself included. That same review put me off the game for the next 5 years even though I knew it was more than likely something I was going to enjoy.

>>531149373
Looks odd fully sovlfvl and cringe

>>531294501
>it was more to do with the fact that IGN wrote a shitty nonsensical review back when lots of people actually listened to what they had to say.
Is there any evidence for this being the case even just anecdotal I mean besides yourself? I want to believe you but did they really have that much sway over gamers back then?

>>531295865
Not him, but they still have that much sway over people's opinions NOW. Despite a lot of people knowing they're biased dogshit 90% of the time, many still fall hook-line-and-sinker for their shit no matter how poorly researched it is.

>>531296958
I stopped caring about reviews a long time ago honestly. Critics and non-critics alike all have awful tastes generally and I can't stand the hype cycles surrounding some games and movies like we've recently seen with Expedition 33. It just makes me believe that most people are soulless husks and I don't even think that highly of myself either. I especially hate how underrated a lot of horror stuff is compared to other genre fiction.
