I played both this game, and the first one in my video today! Crisis at call center starts at 13:00. Although this second game had more to it beyond a walking sim, I still feel like a lot was lacking. First of all, the walking mechanics were abhorrent. I understand it's to replicate old game styles, but for a game bordering on a walking sim it did nothing other than cause frustration and cause the game to take way longer than necessary. It took me 45 minutes to beat the game, yet I was able to cut the footage into about 20. That means half the game was just... pointless. As a gamer, I value time spent. I get annoyed when I feel like my time is wasted on meaningless things that contribute nothing to my experience and I know I can't be the only one who feels that way.
The tasks themselves were also extremely redundant, although I understand we are meant to be playing as Ashley's normal routine. Something as simple as reducing tasks or adding more options (other than the current two: trash and dishes) could benefit a lot. Obviously the game is already done, but it is something to note for the future. To me, even when not playing games for content, I want to always feel like I am doing something for a reason. The redundancy just breaks my immersion and causes me to lose any interest I had in the good parts of a game which is super dangerous. Many people will just quit a game if they get too bored or feel as if their actions have 0 value in game. Just food for thought! I see the third game is out and maybe it's better, but as for now I think there is a lot left wanting.
This episode is fun! I wasn't very enthusiastic about the first episode, but this episode shows so much improvement! I'm curious about episode 3. I do wonder why we didn't get closer to the truth about the missing FBI-intern, though. Maybe we'll find out in episode 3...
An excellent horror game - great design overall. I really appreciated the storytelling and the pacing of the game. It was full of suspense and didn't rely solely on a cheap jump scare! I look forward to playing the first installment!
Surprised to see this classic so high on the itch.io Horror Charts the last few days, but it makes me HAPPY! This is one of the first games that really made me fall in love with short indie horrors experiences. It also made me a lifelong Jeremy Fischer fan! 😍
