This game is super mixed for me

This game is super mixed for me. I love what the developers are trying to do and Until Dawn was amazing. This game is a bit different. The game seems to focus on cheap jump scares all of the damn time to keep you on edge which is a huge red flag for any kind of horror story telling imo. Yeah of course someone will scare when you blast a sound in their face. Its just cheap, not creative and lazy. I didn't buy this game to experience a haunted house, I wanted to experience a damn horror story. What happens to your character seems to rely more on how quick you can smash a button rather than actual choices like in Until Dawn. I hope in your next game you really focus on creating a scary atmosphere that doesn't rely at all on jump scares to keep your audience on edge. Think of the best horror movies ever made. Alien, Hereditary, Silence of the Lambs, Nosferatu, Rosemary's Baby, The Shining. None of these fully focused on jump scares to keep the tension going. They all rely on the feeling of dread and a buildup of psychological instability and character development to survive, which is true horror. Your game has elements of these, but they are not the main focus and do not really shine. Best of luck on the next game.

WARNING: If you are buying this game mainly to play with friends beware of a huge bug about 75% into the story

WARNING: If you are buying this game mainly to play with friends beware of a huge bug about 75% into the story. The game gets into an infinite loading screen and there is no way to get past that. You'll have to start over. There is a patch for the game that says this issue was resolved in december of last year, but as of end of mars 2021 it still hasn't been resolved. And since the bug shows up 75% into the game you are past the 2 hours of gameplay and can not get a refund because of that. So be prepared to have to replay the story to avoid the storyline with the bug. Try to buy the game when it's on sale, 29,99€ is expensive when the game still has such a huge bug 2+ years after release. If you are mainly interested in this game to play in singleplayer mode, the game is absolutely amazing and entertaining. ✨___✨ So if you have played Until Dawn and liked it, you will most likely enjoy this one too.
