I want to remind that this game is written by written of Amnesia and SOMA and this is one of best writers in game industry nowadays, not overrated pretentious hacks like Kojimbo or Drunkman, and not any of those woke ESG DEI writters. I still think that there was not any game after SOMA that managed to impress me so much with story and make me think about it for years and waiting for game as deep and thought provoking, probably only Nier Automata was close enough, but it was way too anime, while SOMA was realistic and grounded, so SOMA script impressed me more. And as fan of everything lavcraftian I can't imagine any better actively working game writter who can write something as Lovecraftian and yet fresh and somewhat unique. But I wish this writer to get back to old studio and write soma 2 😢 or similar sci fi horror game.

I think a potential sequel (provided this game sells well), should have Cranby taking another case (1920s setting again), but with another playable female protagonist. I mean, the best games so far in the series did just that... 1992 original, New Nightmare (2001), and now this 2024 game. The only problem is getting David Harbour to reprise his Carnby role again unless he's probably too expensive due to the 2024 game (his salary).

Despite it's glaring flaws, I still see Alone in the Dark 2024 a successful and much needed revival to this badly mismanaged series of 30+ years. This new game is already cult status material with solid gameplay, engaging story, characters and creepy atmosphere. It will gain an audience in due time and be an ideal ENTRY point for newcomers to the series, something the series has long lacked. The 1992 original (plus trilogy) is too old for most gamers to get into. New Nightmare is an underrated classic, but is also too old for most new gamers to get into and the 2008 game is a jumbled mess of mixed styles and ideas much worse than RE6.

This looks great! I’ve seen other reviews giving it low ratings, but this is a much more comprehensive review by someone who is a fan of that old school survival horror I love!

I wish publishers would be more discerning with who they give review codes to. Not that I want them fishing for positive reviews but YT has no shortage of lazy reviewers looking for clicks and codes. You'd think putting together 20 minutes of well explained thoughts towards the game would be an easy ask. 🤷

@@jankmedia1985 I suspect that reviewers are being more pissy lately because of everything going on in games journalism right now. That and I think Games News sites tend to dislike AA games as they are more direct competition to the AAA companies that fund them.

Impressive how Gman will use that stock fart sound in different and new ways

This looks miles better than what I was expecting.
@GBDupree5 ай бұрын
Agree, its everything I was hoping for, while not being what I expected it would be. I heard the demo was a lot more like I expected, so I'm glad that the main game has a lot going for it, rather than just simply a straightforward narrative experience.

Man, I really I'm getting old. There's a non stop flood of games I played when I was a child. System Shock, FF7, now this...

Kinda reminds me of The Evil Within, with the way it looks and plays. Can't wait to play it!

Couple of reviews I read scored it really low, I got worried but I trust your opinion more G Man. Looking forward to it tomorrow

Games looks fun and something I would enjoy. Something to get after some of the bugs have been patched on maybe gone on sale. I do agree that making the characters feel a bit sluggish does have a nice affect in upping the pressure in survival horror games.

I actually like having the same outcome but different ways to reach it. Makes replaying fun and different. And from a storytelling perspective, it shows that they're different and I like that

Finally a fair review that actually criticizes it based on the game alone and weather it works and not weather or it is on the same scale as resident evil

It's amazing how different the game's scores are) From 1 to amazing

Loved the Anton Chigur cameo! Just watched No Country for Old Men last night for the third time. Also, YOU CAN'T KEEP GETTING AWAY WITH THESE MOM JOKES!

It reminds me a bit of The Evil Within games. I love those games in their weird flawed ways, so this might be worth a buy

That fart drop at the 9 minute mark sent my maturity level back in time to circa 1997 and I really appreciate that nostalgia of thinking fart jokes are the golden standard of comedy.

This game kind of looks like The Sinking City, both horror with investigative aspects, the setting and the combat (clunky moves, melee and ranged weapons) is comparable, even hats at times don't cast shadows on foreheads on both games. I liked The Sinking City so I'll buy this too.

Happy to see its mainly positive news. Imma pick it up during the spooky season and hopefully all the bugs are smoothed out.

Game reminds me of The Sinking City and Murdered: Soul Suspect. Not just because a dapper-clad, fedora swagging lad is in it, but also because of the enemy types, the art style, the foggy nature, the movement. And fedora. (It's actually a trilby.)

If this sells and they keep going, _and_ if they decide to remake each title in the series... We do run into the possibility of David Harbour turning into a playable mountain lion in the third game. And that be hilarious to see with current game tech. ... Everyone buy this game.
