>but I've heard bad things.
Probably from casuals who complain that it's too hard and that they keep running out of ammo.
It's ten times better than any of the nu-Resident Evil games.

>>380326961
It's a decent/fun horror-themed third person shooter ala RE4, but not as good.

>>380326961
>should I play the original?

yeah.

>>380326623
>This could be geniunely fantastic.

TEW was already fantastic if you had a beefed up PC at the time.

>>380326961
It's janky but charming, quite a lot of action; don't play on easy since it ruins the mechanics.

If you play it approach it with an open mind. It's not pure horror but not quite cheesy action Resident Evil either.

>>380326961
Go for it. There are strong and weak portions but it's worth playing through.

the plot and gameplay hamstrung it way more than engine choice

that being said I still recommend playing it, just don't have big expectations

>>380326961
its a Not-as-good-as-RE4 horror game but its still good

>>380326623
The 360 port of TEW was tolerable. Very surprised they fit it all on one disc, considering it was a 40GB game on the other platforms.

>>380326623
More like The Ludo Within

>>380326961
I had fun with it even though the engine really fucked my machine up, to the point where I had to manually edit out post-processing to get the game to run at a respectable speed.

People get too mad at the extremely limited ammo at the beginning. Protip, use everything you got and stealth as much as you can. Upgrade crit damage and running (ignore melee) first and everything should go well.

Savescum the lockers for goo. It's a single player game nobody is going to hurt you.

>>380326961
The plot is whatever. Cool setting and Mikami gameplay so at least it's fun.

If you are expecting RE4 then you are going to have a bad time. If you are expecting to be scared then you are going to have a bad time. Plot, atmosphere and theme wise it's similar to games like RE, silent hill but TEW is it's own thing gameplay wise. It expects a lot out of you and the more you know about the mechanics the better it is.(which why everyone loves their second play through) You need a different mentally to approaching the game. It's not like old REs where you have to decided whether to fight or run. And It's not like new REs where you just gun down everything. There plenty of moments where you have to kill lots of enemies and you can play the whole game that ( I personal love too) But there's a tactical edge to the game. Stealth is just an option and only necessary in the tutorial and on "AKUMU". You can't shoot everything your first play through because you most definitely will run out of ammo and the game is not very forgiving when you have nothing. Using what you can find like bottles for setting off traps or using them to get knife instant kills, or one-use items come in handy. Also Matches are probably one of the most useful things in the game for saving ammo. Not only do they instantly kill downed enemies. But they will instant kill anything around that enemy giving you some nice setups. Then there's all the other stuff you can do by disarming traps(or saving them to use for your advantage) to make arrows or stealth kills. The gameplay is very unique compared to RE4/DS and one of the best thing about it is that it makes you improvise on the spot. Fighting things head on without knowing if you will find what you need or have enough ammo makes the game quite thrilling.

i realise that melee followups made RE4 a little easy (granted the adaptive difficulty did a great job) but i really am missing that mechanic.

>>380330518
Good post.

Like usual, a Mikami game gets shat on because people don't understand the mechanics. TEW has extremely interesting gameplay, but it's written off because its a bit janky and people expect the wrong things.

>>380330608
Is it directed by Mikami?
I know it's made by tango but Mikami wasn't confirmed.

>>380330518
>Stealth is just an option and only necessary in the tutorial and on "AKUMU"
And the mannequin factory. I would risk to say stealth is necessary since you can get stuck due lack of ammo. It didn't happened to me in my playthrough but i was really close. That tower with the ballistas, made the whole thing, reached the end of the level and suddenly bam!, that brute shows up and all i had was three flash bolts for the crossbow.

Wikipedia also has him listed as director but I haven't found a source confirming that anywhere.

The game is basically Inception with spooks, the premise is interesting but people get way too caught up on the plot when that shit isn't really the focus here.

>>380326623

That game had way more problems than just engine/hardware related.

Hopefully they learned some of the lessons from the first one because if they make the same game with a better engine it will still flop hard.

IIRC ID5 took a long time to make, with RAGE being the flagship title. ID6 I think was announced before RAGE even came out but I doubt it could have been made that fast.

Then again I know fuck all about game engines

I like the Silent Hill vibes from the trailer.
i hope they give Sebastian more personality and make the antagonist better.

>should I play the original? It's on sale right now but I've heard bad things.

If you love survival horror games, well, it's a survival horror game. And some of the things it does are cool. Overall it's not that good though. Out of high budget games from real studios, Evil Within is the one with the most clear-cut "you did that 100% wrong and you can't defend it" tier design errors I've seen. For example:

- enemies with instant kill attacks when your character is glacially slow and you have no dodge roll
- melee attacks that do no damage, with upgrades to damage that make it still do no damage

>>380331937
>That is what makes it good though.
nah, linear narrative-driven games need to be way more focused

the jumping around between village areas, asylum, modern times was on the same level of jarring poorly-fit together level design as dark souls 2

hopefully they fix that in the sequel and give us a protag (or fix the protag) to have some sort of personality so he isn't so boring

>>380334374
NuDoom used idTech 6 and looked and ran beautifully. Yet that means nothing if the team is not competent enough to properly optimize it.

The game takes place in a reality creates by several different people's minds.

>>380334756
>the jumping around between village areas, asylum, modern times was on the same level of jarring poorly-fit together level design as dark souls 2
Why this bothers people so much?
By the end of the game you figure out why everything is scattered into pieces and actually makes sense. Yet people keeps bitching about it because it's not as straightforward as they wish it to be.

Playing TEW1 right now. Honestly this game is the Resident Evil 7 I've always wanted.

>>380326961

The original is flawed but enjoyable.

The biggest problem I have with it is that the game is filled to the brim with instant deaths. Most bosses one shot you, trip mines are everywhere in the second half and it has really unforgiving QTEs

The game also assumes you'll play it like TLOU. If you play it like RE4 you'll run out of ammo.

Also fuck the funhouse/carousel level, don't know how the fuck you're supposed to do that without running out of ammo.

>>380335380
>Why this bothers people so much?

'Cause it undermines EVERYTHING. There is no sense of progress when you're just going from random ass level to random ass level with no logic or coherency at all.

>>380335380

It's made pretty clear pretty much from 5 minutes in that you're not in the real world which is especially shit story telling

It's a golden rule of the universe that nothing which uses Clair de Lune can possibly be bad.

>>380336065

>>380326961
FUCKING DO IT YOU NIGGER, and don't fucking cheat or use hacks. It ruins the game...

>>380336328
What do you mean by cheat? Or are you just referring an infinite ammo mod or something like that?

Has anyone here actually managed to beat it on Akumu?

>>380336591
Yes, don't fucking do it.

>>380336052

Yes and no. I thought it took a bit too much from The Last of Us personally.

The game is set up for you to kill a sizeable number of enemies with stealth , I would have rather it gone the RE1+2 route of requiting you to be clinical with your weapons. The aiming system was too janky and the enemies too fast for that though (plus it's actually harder to hit enemies the closer they get to you).

the first one runs like trash in my toaster. it is a performance mess
in contrast, RE7 works pretty decent

I know the first game I'm going to finish when I buy a new graphics card

Is it too much to ask that TEW2 doesn't have fucking zombies with guns again?

I've never played a horror game besides silent hill but I'm very tempted to buy the evil within with all dlc for $15 on psn.
I'm a huge horror fan but also a huge pussy. Should i?

This thread has convinced me to replay TEW on a harder setting. Thanks, guys. I'll probably do the DLC right before 2 drops.

Where is our edgelord Ruvik?

>>380337284
If you haven't played REmake play that first, it's Mikami's best game and one of the best games of all time.

WHERE THE FUCK IS MY RUVIK?! WE'RE NOT DONE WITH HIM BEING IN LESLEI'S BODY AND ALL!

>>380337284

It's not so much as pant shitting like Project Zero or PT but it does have a very oppressive atmosphere.

To some extent the fun of the gunplay and generous safehouse points help make it too much to handle (too many horror games don't understand the need for cooldown periods).

>>380337657
I have played it indeed. It didn't make me feel scared except for that one girl

>>380337769
Actually i think he's inside Sebastian's mind.

>>380338340
oooooh shit. but then why was leslei's body never seen in the tub and then we see leslei/ruvik.

The first game you are in leslie/ruviks mind

The second game you will probably be in Sebastian's mind. That's my guess, it seems like STEM is sort of like an inception machine.

>>380338734
It's at the end of the DLC The Consequence. It's never clarified what was of leslie after he wakes up. My guess is that leslie gets captured by Mobius but they find he's just Leslie and not Ruvik, and Ruvik is "partially" inside Sebastian's mind, because when you see him at the end of the game, he's walking calmly away from a crime scene, there's no way police would overlook that, so that "Leslie" might be just a vision

>almost the entire time I didn't understand all the hate.
Casuals who grew up on nu-RE who complain when they can't treat it like RE5 and have to actually use smart play.

People only hated it because of the odd PC port when it first came out. The game is so fucking decent once you update to the latest patch. I haven't gotten to the kidman DLC yet but I'm looking forward to it. On chapter 15 of the base game right now.

great game 2bh. genuinely creepy and unnerving. some elements of the plot were really engaging too. play on the highest difficulty available to make ammo and heals scarce as possible

The game was made for casuals.

Looks really different thematically. Not a lot of grungy bloody horror, but lots of milk tier things.

>>380346997
I think he's dreamy too.

>>380346997
>>380346813

this 2bh. he was gorgeous. i like his character too. i dont know why that seems to be a common criticism. after what hes been through, its hardly surprising that hes the stoic type and isnt all talkative and happy

>>380340482
I think a lot of the hate came from the marketing giving people the wrong expectations. The only material they showed off for a long time was the first chapter, which made it seem like third person Outlast (there was some other footage, but it was behind closed doors so you had to really look around to find leaks for it until right before release). Then they had those "reaction" commercials that showed people reacting to the game and freaking out. Basically "we want the Pewdiepie/Outlast/Amnesia audience" (and yes, they did also give a copy to Pewdiepie himself).

None of this really conveyed that it's basically a spiritual successor to RE4, but leaning a bit more towards survival horror. It's not the type of horror that the people they marketed it to expected so they got pissed when they didn't get what they wanted.

>>380347380
this right here. I never saw a problem with his personality.

>>380347269
What's all this live action stuff?
And why is a Lannister playing a spaniard?

>>380347158
He's like 38 now and described as having hit rock bottom. He just needs a good shave and a bath not in milk or STEM juice and he'll be as handsome as ever.

>I always saw you with a bottle ever since what happened with your family, and now you've only shown any interest in your work.
>Yeah well, what else is there...

Sebastian's stoicism is perfectly validated.

>>380347380
He's a classic Mikami RE protag. People give him shit for not reacting enough, But that's just like how Chris, Leon, Jill and Barry can walk through all the crazy shit they seen with no major emotional response. I think people have just gotten too used to games where the protag fucking talk every 5 seconds.

>>380326623

>Evil Within's problem were only technical

This could still be just as much of a shitty survival horror as the first.

Hope Mikami isn't resting on his laurels again and actually tries to design an interesting game to explore on the merits of its exploration and not on retarded setpieces and SPOOPY SCREAMING BLALLSDFAHDSHADS.

>>380347983
its not that, they somewhat changed his facial structure of something. Plus he now has big teeth.

>>380347969
I truly believe Mikami had the 3d modellers use Nikolaj Coster-Waldau as a reference.

>>380348550

thats a pretty good summary. people nowadays want their protagonist to be their twitch streamer/lets player as well. endless verbal diarrhea about whats going and "how fucking crazy that was!!!!" a la farcry 3, to name one example that immediately comes to mind

>>380348769
Maybe they're using a different actor and model for him?

>>380348748
If you think it's going back to "true" survival horror roots a la RE1 then just give up hope now.

I on the other hand love The Evil Within and expect the sequel to just be a better version of the first.

>>380348550

Although, to be fair, all of the above either interacted with partners or just started bringing out more of their characters as games went on, which is a huge factor on why they're so liked in the first place.

Sebastian's ok but I hope he has more presence here.

>>380339032
The whole STEM reality thing is so great for allowing the player to be literally dropped through the floor into the next tense as fuck but completely different looking area without any boring bullshit. It's the perfect video game setting for a horror game desu.

>>380340034

Refresh my memory: did she really die or she is in a coma? I have the impression that he wants to implant Laura in Lily´s as she was also a victim of a fire.

>>380349968
I agree, but there's always autists who have the mindset "well it's not the real world so not scary".

>>380326623
Hopefully. I look forward to it. First game was like a 6/10 for me.

>>380349772
I agree with the complaint that there wasn't enough to his character for us to connect with him but the I don't agree with the complaint about him not reacting enough to "scary" or mindfuck stuff happening.

>>380349984
The last time she's mentioned is in a coma, but that was shortly after the fire. The game takes place over two decades after that. After Ruvik was sliced apart and used as the core for STEM, it's not like Mobius would've had any reason to keep her alive. It's possible though.

>>380349607
that sucks.

>>380326961
Go for it. It's quite fun.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3nXe9QH1ou0

>>380326961
I liked it, so give it a go. It should be really cheap right now anyway. The only thing I remember hating about the game, was the long monster horde segments.
After that the game was pretty decent. I still remember the boss fights clearly because they were so good (even if I died a couple of times in them).

>>380327329

Ya pretty much. Most of the detractors hate it because its not 'intuitive' or some bullshit like every game is supposed to hold your hand and suck you cock while its at it. The game has issues and some bad moments, but it is still by far one of the more engaging releases to come out in recent memory. AKUMA mode made me want to rip my hair out at some segments but when you beat it its beyond satisfying.

Further information says that this Stefano guy is an artist who loves the brutality of death, and that camera monster is like his sidekick that captures/freeze those moments of death for him.

>>380334741

Melee is obviously a last resort but still worth using to kill off single enemies without wasting a bullet. Instant kill attacks is eh. They would have killed you quickly with a regular hit most likely anyways, the cinematic kill is just fluff. The movement speed is kind of a eh deal that more or less makes a do or die situation which I didn't really mind.

>>380351345
So he's like the guy from Clockwork Orange in a way. neato

>>380351345

Source?

That Camera monster was fucking great. Monster design seems as interesting as the first.

>>380351931
It was a guy who works for Bethesda at E3 talking about it.

>>380348550

I wish he would react more but yeah, its better than false bravado for sure. One thing they could easily add is just more of a out of breath emote when something scary happens or he just comes out of a brawl. Or a heartbeat sound. Little things like that would make Sebastian more likeable.

It's weird there wasn't no reference to the fact Sebastian's missing wife is part of Mobius.

>>380353059
It was in the DLC's where you play as Kidman.

>>380353368

What is even going on in this image?

>>380326961
Play it. It starts off as pretty good survival horror, however it quickly turns into a more action based horror game as nearly every RE does.

The game overall is pretty satisfying. The bosses are good, and the story is decent. The basic mobs get a bit repetitive, but that's pretty standard in all games of this genre. Ammo management maintains its importance throughout the game, as melee attacks are super weak. Only use matches on monsters if you did not get a headshot or just knocked them down. Matches are op as fuck honestly, and really important.

The controls can be a little clunky at times, but once you get good with camera management it becomes a non-issue.

He probably missed the ques that one creature can only be hurt by fire, which the game tells you like 5x, and then kept shooting it wasting all his ammo like a retard

Guys let's meme TEW into a more popular franchise than Reaident Evil. I'm willing to buy 10 copies of this game and 10 copies of the first one if you are, otherwise I can't be arsed. I wish there was a way to hack into sales numbers and make them look bigger than what they are.

>>380363046
You can hear them and there are environmental cues that fucking let you know their location. They even introduce them and an NPC verbally confirms how to spot them to the player with multiple warnings

>>380368516
Melee is a tricky thing. It can't be overpowered but it still needs to be useful. TEW melee was weak as shit but it was good for pushing fuckers off you and opening them up for a attack. I think they shouldn't really make it more powerful or anything and just make it have more range. You needed to be a little to close and enemies attack/grabs could cancel yours.

>maM6zZi.png
I understand the complaint but the way whoever wrote that is fucking retarded. Saying that a game demands that you play certain parts in a certain way is not a valid complaint, all games demand you do certain things their way, absolute freedom to do anything or proceed however you want isn't a must for every game. Bosses demand tactics, stages demand you go to a specific route, enemies are weak to certain weapons or elements yet we don't say that games "force" you to use fire against ice enemies.

More to my point, I think people who complained about the game were trying to play the game however they pleased rather than how the game wanted them to proceed. Some areas require stealth, some force, others to swim or whatever the situation calls for. It's true that the is no actual way to know what that is from the game aside from a lot of spots to hide in but if you force the game to be how you want it to be you'll just get resistance from it, but if you try to go with the flow and try out what the game wants to show you it'll be a smoother ride.

It's great however be aware there's a lot of BS instant deaths partway though

I found it boring because I enjoyed the mansion. But we can agree that the mine area is bad.

I think everyone can since we expected a full fledged lab area.

I'm glad other people are stoked about this game. I really liked the first one. And this was one one the only games I was excited for this year.

The one part in the game that got me really good is right after completing the puzzle rooms, the multiple hands slam on the wall with blood and screaming to reveal a door.

if you play it, dont spec into melee or stealth, they are trap skills

Is the twist going to be that he's actually the one who murdered his wife and daughter?

Was upgrading revolver and sprint the best way to go?

Melee is last resort as it fucking should be.
With full damage upgrade + brass knuckles on NG+ you one hit kill almost everything anyways.

>instant kill attacks
Only instant kill attacks that I remember come from Ruvik, Ruvik clone's Laura, Laura, and that one boss that will turn purple with an eye vagina upon low health.
Ruvik is slow as shit and you can hide to avoid him I think.
Ruvik clones are piss easy to deal.
Laura is a shit but she is a puzzle boss at its worst and the game tells you every time to not fight her directly.
And that one boss is piss easy to just circle strafe and kill when he reaches that low health stage.
