@picofarad if you can't make someone scared in a well-lit room, maybe you shouldn't be working in horror :thonk:

@anemone i think most people say observer is their best one and a genuinely good game but i haven't played it. i didn't like layers of fear and i thought blair witch was okay, just kinda mid and i never finished it.

does bloober not know that silent hill 2 came out in 2001...?

also this filter is shit. i can almost guarantee the colorblind filter is bad too.

@Fullmetal2255 i can't believe this is the direction it went in. i keep saying this for so many things you'd think i wouldn't be surprised anymore but i am.

@coded_artist all of the games on the left look and play substantially better too.

the games industry is waaaaay too focused on "realism" and it takes away from it actually seeming real, funny enough. there's a certain style you have to achieve to trick someone's brain into glossing over inaccuracies, but when you just go all in on the realistic stuff then your brain picks up on it way more.

especially with all of the techniques devs use for various things... they end up looking really bad in motion and you focus way too much on them. it ruins the immersion. i'll take purely rasterized lighting that's really good over ray-traced reflections that smear everywhere when you turn the camera any day.

@coded_artist The Room is actually one of my favorite movies of all time. It's horrendously bad but in a way that makes it so easy to watch and laugh at. Not to mention it has a lot of really memorable quotes, and honestly that can make or break a movie.

We need 1980s G.I. Joe to invade Israel and arrest those kikes in the name of the United Nations, who are, of course, the good guys.
