It was a genuine ask, I only have a PS3 and have to wait a month or so (destiny *cough*) until i get a PS4 and this looks sooooo pretty

richymcdermott · 14-08-2014 4:06pm

Well after playing that for a few hours tonight I find myself with a new found love for walking down a dark hallway on the way to bed. Opening doors into dimly lit rooms is now a pure joy in the small hours.

NOT!!

Ffs, that demo was creepy. I still can't find the very last piece of the photo. Very middle one. Anyone know where the flip it is?!?!

Press start then press r3.

He underestimated Neogaf then, a user found it within two hours.

Not exactly, it was completed by accident. It was only last night when all the pieces came together and the way to beat it was found on gaf

I just beat the final loop in 9 minutes, its easy when you know what to do.

Sony exclusive?

So far it seems to be. But since they've been so tight lipped about the whole project there's no real way of knowing until they officially announce it.

Cravez · 14-08-2014 11:15pm

I'v heard that it won't be an Sony exclusive but wasn't an 'official' source so it's hard to verify.

Seeing this screenshot alot would make me 'NOPE!' the fuck out of there when playing the game, especially since it's rumoured that it may be Oculus Rift compatible...

Magill · 14-08-2014 11:23pm

lol, even that screenshot freaks me out.... such a wuss.

I was playing it last night and felt 'safe' because I wasn't really progressing, just looking for something. I decided to look up and saw that fúcker up there. I nearly shít myself...

I just now found out what Oculus Rift is. Holeee fúck...

heebusjeebus · 15-08-2014 8:44am

No chance I would attempt it using the Rift.
Id end up breaking my neck due to whiplash running out of the room!

Zero-Cool · 15-08-2014 9:31am

Aw man, this would absolutely guarantee me buying Rift Morpheus although the cops might be called because they hear a Flanders-like woman screaming.

ripperman · 15-08-2014 10:44am

Bloody Hell!? This just gets better and better!

Retr0gamer · 15-08-2014 11:53am

So does this rely on psychological horror or just cheap jump scares???

Definitely more on the psychological side, there was only 1 or 2 jumpy moments but they fit in well and didn't come across as cheap.

For the most part, everything is there already and you just have to discover it each time you walk through that hallway.

.ak · 15-08-2014 12:00pm

Jesus, that screenshot will haunt me.

I've had this downloaded for a while and haven't had to courage to start it up.

15-08-2014 12:00pm

Please be on xbox

For me it's more psychological horror. The sound effects, the story on the radio. It was the first time I was playing a game and thought 'if someone was on the verge of being a psycho and becoming a serial killer, this demo could actually push them over the edge' Just really got that vibe off it :pac: The shrieking of the swinging light, baby crying, radio static with messages coming through, writing on walls, lights dimming and changing colour, the odd glimpse of a messed up image, all while in 1st person is very effective. Much more effective than Outlast imo.

15-08-2014 12:07pm

Watched a few mins of it on youtube. Even it made me nervous, creepy.

heebusjeebus · 15-08-2014 1:30pm

The reddit tagline on this image is "Edited" not sure what was done to the image but it looks incredible.

This looks like it might be the scariest thing ever, game and film included

Is that actually in game?

Kiith · 15-08-2014 1:47pm

It better be in game...if that **** exists in real life i'm outta here.

Generic Dreadhead · 15-08-2014 1:50pm

Zero-Cool · 15-08-2014 1:59pm

Yupp that's in game. I remember walking around the corner, see your wan staring up at a light fitting and I just turned around and went back down the corridor I came from nope nope nope.

The graphics are brilliant, looks like a horror films, even though Hideo said he scaled back the graphics so people wouldn't guess it was konami's engine.

tok9 · 15-08-2014 2:08pm

Ya I forget if it actually looked that good but the game definitely looked really good in general.

With that said.. Kojima did also mention that they turned the production values down a bit just so people wouldn't recognise it being the fox engine.

gimli2112 · 15-08-2014 2:52pm

ah here I couldn't even handle Outlast. There's no way I'm going near this.

richymcdermott · 15-08-2014 3:17pm

Hotfail.com · 15-08-2014 6:09pm

About five minutes into the demo and absolutely shítting it

5uspect · 15-08-2014 11:18pm

Yeah, it's pretty intense. I had an Eraserhead moment this evening. Really unsettled me.

I'm really impressed by how natural it looks. The lighting is excellent, the depth of field effect is really convincing and the mild fisheye effect works so much better than the distorting rectangular camera views we usually see in games.

Gandalph · 16-08-2014 3:53am

Why does my hall have to look the god damn same as the one in the demo, I'm too afraid to leave my room now.

Roar · 16-08-2014 1:13pm

lads how do you restart the demo? I want to go for it from the beginning, mainly just so I can freak out my wife. I'm just stuck on an endless loop at the end now.

I deleted the game save data for the application. Seemed to do the job.

Roar · 16-08-2014 4:48pm

thank you sir.

Agricola · 16-08-2014 10:32pm

I wouldnt go near this thing with an extra long telescopic barge pole! Can't even bring myself to watch a lets play til the morning!

tok9 · 17-08-2014 7:20pm

Went back for more pain

I made it to the final puzzle but couldn't make the baby laugh a second time. Tried countless times so I've given up again for the time being.

Bloody freaks me out hearing those noises

krudler · 17-08-2014 10:46pm

The graphics are incredible, the camera movement and lighting is something else.

Agreed. Apparently Kojima has said they actually toned down the quality to make it seem more like it was an indie studio who made it. I expect the full game won't be quite a good due to much larger environments and stuff, but still, they did a hell of a job. It looks and plays fantastic.

The quality looked fairly brutal imo, so it's good to know that they gave us a toned down version, the jagged edges looked awful.

.ak · 18-08-2014 10:37am

Huh? I thought it was one of the best looking games/demos on the PS4. It's ultra-realistic, the textures are photogenic.

Having said that I only played it for 2 min last night and had to turn it off.

Textures: Aw shucks! Thanks, you're only saying that! The FPS perspective takes a few pounds off though, I don't really look that good in real life.

Streamer has a panic attack when playing the Demo

The shadow and texture quality aren't great. The lighting and post processing are very good however.
