place was a breeze

>>386824886
it was creepy the first time and you know it

>>386824950
it's creepy everytime for me

Played for the first time a year ago.

Considered clearing the missions boring as fuck, so literally ran through the hotel fast as possible. Can't remember if I even had the sound on at the time.

Didn't leave much of an impression on me desu.

This game right here did very horrible things to my mind.

Best horror game I ever played, no doubt. Amnesia comes close.

Back then i was trash at the game as well, so i would have to stop and think about what to do next with that shit right behind me. I still get clammy hands watching the chase scenes

The atmosphere really gets to me. Going through the sewer entrance always makes me feel isolated after leaving the streets of santa monica.

Not exactly Amnesia but hey, I was ten

I was actually never scared of this. The only part that got me was the pot that flings itself at you, and that's only because it knocked off a third of my HP and pissed me off.

It's scary but it's not what discourages replaying. True PTSD is the fucking library.

>>386827281
Explain.

Wasn't this that edgy tryhard Undertale copy?

>>386826939
the only thing scary about this level is that it's the single worst fucking level in the franchise and it causes actual physical, psychological, and emotional pain playing it because it's that fucking bad.

>>386827476
no, not really. play the game, it's pretty good

>>386827476
What in the world? Lisa came out AFTER Undertale, so it can't be called a copy. Not only that, but both games play completely different. Or do you think all indie games play the same?

Fucking moron

>>386827476
no, it came out almost 2 years before Undertale. It's a story about a man who has failed his entire life to belong to society, and after his long journey that involves killing people left and right to protect the one he loves it ends up hurting that person even more. It's the ultimate phyrric victory in videogame form

>>386825704
Definitely this.

>>386827519
I just used the auto-shotgun to blow all those guys away once they started being everywhere. wasn't hard at all

>>386827650
I ignored the guns at Andre's both because they kind of ruin the game and the auto shotty eats ammo like a bitch but I did take it after the ranger station because I felt like Artyom deserved it. but still Duplet will always have my heart

They flat out tell you the stare system exists.

If I remember correctly it was claimed to be broken on launch and later fixed in a patch but considering people also claim stealth was "broken" the reality was it probably worked exactly as intended and was just too strict for some.

I was like 12, playing at 1 in the morning and was tired as shit. Was not expecting that jump scare the first time I touched one of the dead.

>tedious or boring levels are considered PTSD
Really now.

>>386828061
They nerfed that place so hard in SotFS. Changed the enemy placement so that at all times there is only 2 max shooting at you, the projectiles were tweaked so that you can dodge them by simply sidestrafing too. Such a shame.

>>386825551
I still have nightmares about him. In fact, I dreamed about him today. Thankfully I'd played stealth games yesterday so I was sneaking through the dream location where I normally encounter him. In the dream he usually spawns after a cutscene which gets triggered by a certain other enemy seeing me. Since that enemy didn't see me, the cutscene didn't get triggered and the Dahaka didn't spawn. In the next section, the cutscene didn't trigger because the previous one hadn't played so as long as I wasn't spotted by the first guy I could do whatever.

Around 7 years ago I actually started writing down my dreams specifically so I could recognize I was dreaming and take control of the dream in order to wake myself up, remove the Dahaka or give myself infinite sprint, invisibility or shit like that.

>>386828494
i got stuck on this part for 13 years

>>386824590
The effects were well used to really evoke the feeling of haunting. The first time with the elevator, I was completely off-guard. Good section.

My one complaint is toward the very end: I had a glitch that didn't spawn some heirloom and crawled over that floor for upwards of an hour. I don't remember how I triggered the event to get out

>>386824590
The first time you visit the snuff porn studio is the spookiest part of the game for me.

The music for this place is so goddamn tense the entire time. Tried playing through it about a year ago gritting my teeth the whole time, but once I entered the inner part and something ran across the screen I NOPE'd the fuck out of there.

>>386830632

I eventually gave up and "cheated". I summoned the NPCs to use as distractions for the respawning reindeer and then legged it to the boss. I'll take the health boost they get, they aren't that hard to fight anyway. The summons have never made it through to the boss fight, that area is bullshit.

ptsd threads arent about "whats scary" you fucking idiot

>>386831336
understandable, just watching it can leave you underwhelmed. It's a lot different playing it, you have to comprehend and problem solve the level with this extremely unnerving and disorientating enemy that's right behind. You also have to take into account that this guy nailed every section and knows it's layout which means he's constantly far ahead of the Dahaka, the mentioned visual and audio effects get more dramatic the closer he is too you so when people first play it they are bound to make mistakes so he gets closer to or even catches them. He also instakills and rips the player to pieces if he catches them.
