DAYMARE: 1998 is a third-person survival horror game that recreates the mood of iconic titles from the '90s, with a fresh storyline. An incident that turns a small town into a deadly zone, three characters to play with and little time to find the truth, before its mutated citizens abruptly end your mission.

[@rayyanali4471]

I think you ought to have provided a bit of a backstory to this project. This is an indie project originally created by the guys who worked on a fan made 3rd person remake of Resident Evil 2. Capcom made them cancel/rename the project but were still quite nice to them even invited them over to their office for the reveal of the official RE 2 remake. These guys then created a new project with some of the assets of their remake and turned it into Daymare.

[@mostlydead3261]

He should've prefaced his review by this. Whilst this doesn't excuse all of game's shortcomings, its origins as a free fan made remake of RE2 which was worked on by a small, inexperienced team in their free time would explain quite a bit, both in terms of game's similarity to RE2 and its flaws & anachronisms. If nothing else, this comment section wouldn't be filled with 'lol cheap RE2 remake knock off' derp.

For those wondering why this looks exactly like the RE2 Remake: this was originally a project titled RE2 Reborn and was a fan made remake. When the official one was announced they pivoted their work into this. Most fan made remakes don't get past the ModDB concept art stage so this is just so cool to see.

[@WingMaster562]

Wait, I don't get it. Somehow, the official RE2 Remake is a clone of a fan remake project? I dunno, I just don't get the connection on how this being intially a fan remake of RE2 that results for it to look exactly like the later official RE2 Remake.

Ben Dover Well, not in the context of the game, no. They want it to be hard on you, not Doom, I get it. But any sort of situation IRL with a dude who wears this much body armor, he’s definitely gonna have a lot of spare mags.

[@mr.bootleg424]

Outbreak had the same magazine mechanic. Four blocks for inventory space, unless you're Yoko. One space will be occupied by your weapon, unless you have a standard handgun as a character's special like Mark. Second slot will be taken by one magazine, which you have to find separately. Third slot will be taken by your ammunition reserves. When reloading without a spare magazine, the character removes the magazine in their firearm and thumbs in ammunition. Once the reload is completed or interrupted, the magazine is re-inserted into the firearm and you're ready to shoot again. Combining ammunition with a spare magazine in your inventory slots is instantaneous, whereas combining with your firearm directly activates the round-by-round reload. Automatic reloads, done by pressing the fire button while empty, or manual reloads, done by pressing a dedicated reload button when readying a weapon, is always faster if you have a spare magazine with at least one bullet in it. Just like combining your spare magazine with a firearm in the inventory screen is. These mechanics extend to handguns, Kevin's .45 being an extremely rare case if I'm not mistaken, sub-machine guns, semi-automatic magnums, and automatic rifles. Weapons like shotguns or revolver magnums, always reload round-by-round. The trade-off for magazines is four-fold, unless you're Yoko, because she has another four inventory slots in her backpack. Being down to only one free inventory slot, you're stunted when it comes to carrying other weapons, healing items, keys, and/or puzzle items. This means that you have to stick with another survivor and essentially take over all combat roles in order to justify your inventory, which also means other players can scramble for different items themselves and assume different roles to the party. Well, that was the case when the game was still online. Sure, Residence of Evil has shown that private servers still exist today and that, with some work, you can still play Outbreak online with friends, any person experiencing the game as-is has to forgo a lot of otherwise solid strategies and do everything themselves. This is 100% viable though, there even being an unlockable lone-wolf permutation to Outbreak's chapters, rendering you the sole survivor of a scenario, just be prepared to babysit the A.I. and hope to God they don't get lost after automatically picking up important progression items.

[@SPHG425]

RE Outbreak actually had similar a magazine system, you could find magazines and instantly load rounds in them via combining its respective ammo, resulting in much quicker reloads. If you didn't have a spare magazine, you have to manually load bullets one at a time in the magazine that's in the weapon. Just something I felt that was worth bringing up.

[@stealthynaxo]

Really? Huh, thats a neat trivia detail.

[@Collin255]

[@TheGaluMoD]

I don't know, my main issue with the game is how bland everything looks. I'm a huge fan of oldschool survival horror. Silent Hill 3 is one of my favourite games and I'm more than willing to put up with a bit of clunkiness but this game just looks like it's devoid of any personality or interesting characters.

[@Scharrez]

Yeah.. I understand that this game originally started out as a RE2 fan remake, but they could've at the very least put any ammount of effort into being thier own thing after capcom told them off, instead of just literally being a cheap RE knockoff, not to mention the bland textures, uninspired character models, zombies look like they are premade assets taken straight from some asset-store and super stiff animations..

[@endplanets]

I like how at the end Gman states that there are no microtransactions. Good info and really boosts the game's credibility.

[@crozraven]

I think with the reload system, the devs trying to convey a more tactical & careful combat/gunplay, very similar to "Insurgency" games (btw you should totally review those games) & I think it's a pretty neat feature for a survival horror game. But yeah the equipment system is just slow & clunky af, especially if you play with k+m ('cause no support for mouse movement!), which I think the biggest hurdle they need to fix right away. So many potentials with this game imo. I think the devs should prioritize to make the weapon switching & equipment system a lot faster or more dynamic, also maybe fix/put a proper zombie mauling animation (which clearly just a jump cut animation imo).

[@RetroRanter]

I saw a trailer for this and that was all, really liked the old school feel and all the adjustments you can make to cameras etc, and now it's time to see if the game is really worth it, courtesy of GmanLives opinion. Man, hearing those acid rounds hit William brought back some memories.

[@Sad_Elf]

It's not the visual aspect, it's the feeling it invokes, the frustrating puzzles, the slow pacing, the clunk of the controls themselves, scooting by on fuck all supplies, the bosses that can tank ludicrous amounts of damage and that ever present tension that re4 to 6 lacked entirely, it's like putting dark souls and salt and sanctuary beside each other, one's 2d and the other 3d but they have the same feeling while playing them even if they're not presented the same

[@awhitehead]

@@Sad_Elf I couldn't disagree more. RE4 had plenty of tension, especially early on. Same with 5 - the native villages midway through the game were tense, even if they would turn into a horde mode later on. It feels like GMan entirely ignores Revelations too.

[@sampleentry5253]

Che mervana Yeah, this game takes the most tedious parts of RE games and exacerbates them to a ridiculous degree. I get going for a "realistic" angle, but if that realism bogs down gameplay trying to imitate a system that already works, then it's a terrible implementation that should be removed.

Picked up a copy for ps4 the other day, and have been playing it nightly (it's too damn dark to see when the sun is out). Games soundtrack is the best part, and legit creeps you out at times.

I had forgotten about this game then somehow it popped up and I came back here to see if you enjoyed it. I just bought it.

[@mohammadhussien5223]

Now review the sequel Daymare 1994 Sandcastle.

[@battelbad12]

The only game i have played that has the “repack magazine” functionality is arma 3; sp glad another game has this too.

[@cartoonvideos5]

Exactly, the only games that use this stupid reloading mechanic are those boring realism simulators. They use it in this shit game to make artificial difficulty.

[@awildwoolooappears2487]

Looks interesting I’ll give it a shot. There’s a demo on steam which is really neat. The style reminds me a bit of the evil within 2 which is good but the ammo management thing puts me off

[@markwebster4996]

Did this game ever get any updates or patches to fix some of the issues?

[@gouki9114]

05:03 literally Kendo's shop frol RE2 lol

[@bniy]

Hah 3:42 was that an Silent Hill 2 reference? The old chainsaw in the wood in the middle of nowhere, wire fence, single track trail lookin ass.

[@davyheijlands1956]

When this.game will be released on console I will pick it up. I like the vibe this game has

[@hauntedheathen2732]

This game to Re2make is like what Lords of the Fallen is to Dark Souls

[@HansDampf1911]

Exactly. But LotF is at least playable and sometimes even fun, so maybe Daymare is still worth a shot.

[@jarlnicholl1478]

Nah.

[@mirrorblade6268]

Gman, would you care to review the beyond enemy lines indy fps games? Im on the fence whether to get them or not...

[@Gggmanlives]

It looks bad tbh.

[@mirrorblade6268]

@@Gggmanlives well, they are there if you feel like scraping the bottom of the barrel some day. ill consider it some more meanwhile.

[@GetLostGames1]

My favorite was "The Suffering"

[@GamingRoomOficial]

Good. I'm embedding this to my Daymare's article.

[@robertbrowne2386]

I will be buying each game/movie so please keep them coming for the old player's from the old games and moves from the 80s and 90s

[@jarlnicholl1478]

Honestly, it is the visual and thematic blandness that puts me off. I wish they went for some supernatural threat rather than le zombie virus.

[@Texelion3Dprints]

Also the only reason to play that game is if you've finished RE2 remake, RE0 and RE1 HD, Revelations 1 and 2 and RE4...

[@Morpheus776]

this game was started by resident evil fans as a tribute you dumbass. . go play outlast or some dumb shit
