What are your thoughts on Fahrenheit?

A good idea taken in a horrible direction. Every David Cage is this.

Started off really strong but went off the rails halfway through. Become Human will probably do the same.

Cool until it became shitty Matrix.

the first half of the game is fucking amazing

the second half of the game is just writers doing way too much crack

first game I ever pirated
enjoyed it going in blind
replays are lackluster, it's objectively a bad game, even the first 2 acts

>gameplay consists of simon says
>one of the main points were the "choices matter" concept
>they don't matter, if you pick the one that's not right the game just ends

It's atrocious.

>>389834724
Enjoyed the first half for the intrigue, then had a great time laughing at the second half. Only played it recently for a couple bucks, my opinion would be very different had I bought it full price on release.

Better than Heavy Rain

The gameplay is identical (trash) throughot the game. How can the first half be better?
You're going to say the story is better, but it's generic mystery shit and only retards look for stories in videogames.

In retrospect, it was terrible but new and exciting at the time.

>>389835476
Heavy Rain was at least totally consistent. It never devolved into a DBZ battle with the physical embodiment of the internet

>>389834724
It was kino before it turned into the Matrix.

>>389835508
Wrong. The part where you had to hide the evidence as the cop is banging on your door was a very well done bit of building tension.
It was only later where the game devolved into cinematic Matrix fights with Simon Says laid on top.

>best intro of any game
>good first part
>then fucking second part happens
So bad.

That's one 2 minute long segment whose gameplay consists of wiggling a button or mouse. Then the remaining 99% of the game that come "later" are shit as you admit.

>>389835756
Fahrenheit felt like a living world and had lots to do and explore, HR was a shitty murder mystery with a lot of consistency problems

Absolutely loved it when it came out

>>389834724
the intro was really really good
probably the first time I felt stress in a game

>>389836651

>lots to do and to explore
Name the things you could do and "explore".

>>389835927
>suddenly its like a seperate team who didnt have any knowledge of the first half took over.
>THAT ROMANCE SUBPLOT THAT MATERIALIZES OUT OF THIN AIR AS IF THEY FORGOT THEY NEEDED ONE!

>>389837478
Not to mention, Lucas is practically a living corpse at that point? The chick even mentions that he feels cold as fuck?

Like did nobody mention that "hey, this is very out of place and creepy as fuck since he just died and she literally lampshades it?"

>>389837405
In comparison to HR

I enjoyed trynna play guitar so that I could fuck my ex.
Then wiggling the stick around to simulate how bad in bed I am.

Terrible, but still one of the better games in its genre because it's so bad it's good, where most others are just bad.

>>389834724
I remember playing this game at release but I don't even know what it's about.
There was some conspiracy stuff then some demon badass came out of fucking nowhere and the hero was a zombie.
The only scene I distinctively remember is the intro in the dinner.

First two acts are amazing, great story and really great characters. But then Lucas started fist fighting the internet itself or some shit like that, and it became hot garbage. Shame, it could've been a consistently great story.

>>389834724
The only part of it worth playing is the very beginning where you try to cover up a murder you did in a trance. After the first hour or so you can drop it because the gameplay is shit and the story disappears up its own asshole towards the end.

>>389834724
Great start, enticing first half, complete trainwreck second half.
It's a bit like shounen anime - they start with a premise that despite following a formula usually offers some enticing personal twists, but as soon as you're really into it it starts degenerating into pointless complexity and power level spikes, with the story taking an indefinite backseat.
