theres at least one murder scene (no spoilers) that rivals anything "dark" ive ever seen in videogaming, and when it drops into a game with the sinners sandwich and one sided conversations between the protagonist and himself its like a slap in the face.

if it's the one i am thinking of... yeah. and also... fuck. now that i am thinking about it again i am like whoaaaaaaaaaa. there are some serious "play this a second time and notice things" moments popping out at me.

also mad props for making the game's most tragic character, like, not an utter embarrassing farce and really kinda pitiable in a real way (altho it gets DANGEROUSLY close to crossing that line)
― Wacha Underground (Will M.), Monday, 5 January 2015 18:44 (nine years ago) link
damn man and the blindfold scenes. jjjusten thank you so much for beating the drum for this game as long as you did, it really pushed me to finally play it and i am so glad i did.
― Wacha Underground (Will M.), Monday, 5 January 2015 18:47 (nine years ago) link
All right, maybe I'll get back onboard and push through the awful, awful driving when I'm done being addicted to GTA Online.

thing i wish someone had told me: once you cna start doing sidequests, complete quests 004 and 005 as soon as possible. the reward for 005 is fast travel.

i haven't played this game before but on a recommendation i started watching this old Let's Play by some guy from SA and i'm completely enthralledhttp://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL845B60D60A411471
he does a good job of letting the game's bizarreness speak for itself while still adding value with commentary (i lost it when he went around the grocery store and started zooming in and reading off all the mangled product names). i'm pretty glad that i can experience the game this way since it doesn't look like the actual gameplay is rewarding, just the writing & 'acting'
― ciderpress, Monday, 14 March 2016 16:58 (eight years ago) link
Yeah, I lost my saved game when my old PS3 crashed and the thought of replaying the early portions of the game kinda keep me from picking it up again.

Swery is crowdfunding a new game, trailer seems suitably unhinged.

new one is out in 2 weeks, i am hyped

Wait waht?!?
― jjjusten, Monday, 27 July 2020 02:43 (three years ago) link
heard it's pish
― ||||||||, Monday, 27 July 2020 07:18 (three years ago) link
oh boy, wait till you hear about this one
― Kate (rushomancy), Monday, 27 July 2020 08:59 (three years ago) link
ya meant this one. hopefully they patch it
― ||||||||, Monday, 27 July 2020 09:03 (three years ago) link
i haven't played yet but it sounds like it's good just even lower effort/less polish than the first
― ciderpress, Monday, 27 July 2020 13:02 (three years ago) link
on the tech side i mean, there's definitely some effort in the world design and such
― ciderpress, Monday, 27 July 2020 13:04 (three years ago) link
If for nothing else, the first gets props for having literally the worst driving controls in the history of video games. Like so bad that I have to assume they're willfully so.

that's what some of us hoped as well, and someone brought it to swery's attention, and he said "oh! sorry, i'll get right on that", and released a patch that fixed damn near nothing, and then that was brought to swery's attention as well, and swery's response was to talk about his "creative freedom" and make a couple more tweets that were more blunt that he then deleted
don't get your hopes up.
― Kate (rushomancy), Monday, 27 July 2020 13:53 (three years ago) link
if it gets a pc release after the 6 months of switch exclusivity are up then maybe it'll run better there, though the first game actually runs worse on pc than on 360 lol
― ciderpress, Monday, 27 July 2020 15:39 (three years ago) link
either way i will be playing this on switch handheld mode for the proper experience
― ciderpress, Monday, 27 July 2020 15:41 (three years ago) link
I literally forgot this game came out until I watched sleepy hollow today and saw that weird tree and was like "oh damn deadly premonition, did that come out?" and then I bought it and now I'm playing it that's the whole story
― TRANCED INTO RADIOACTIVE PUREE (Will M.), Monday, 2 November 2020 08:45 (three years ago) link
i'm two scenes in and he's talked at least a couple of lines about... 8 different movies or so? i wish i was keeping a list
― TRANCED INTO RADIOACTIVE PUREE (Will M.), Monday, 2 November 2020 19:52 (three years ago) link
wait are you playing the first one for the first time?
― ciderpress, Monday, 2 November 2020 20:22 (three years ago) link
there is a lot of movie chat
the second one!
― TRANCED INTO RADIOACTIVE PUREE (Will M.), Monday, 2 November 2020 20:23 (three years ago) link
oh nvm you're playing 2 i see
― ciderpress, Monday, 2 November 2020 20:23 (three years ago) link
there is still a lot of movie chat
yeah i totally didn't clarify that. maybe i should've played the first one thru again first though, because i cannot remember the ending at all? and iirc it got very convoluted
― TRANCED INTO RADIOACTIVE PUREE (Will M.), Monday, 2 November 2020 20:24 (three years ago) link
these are both on sale for switch now, which seems rare?
― na (NA), Tuesday, 15 June 2021 18:56 (three years ago) link
by which i mean they are both discounted. i don't remember a price drop on DP2 since i put on my wishlist a year or two ago.
― na (NA), Tuesday, 15 June 2021 18:58 (three years ago) link
should i play either of them? should i start with 1 or jump to 2?
― na (NA), Tuesday, 15 June 2021 19:07 (three years ago) link
Definitely don't jump to 2.
― reggae mike love (polyphonic), Tuesday, 15 June 2021 19:09 (three years ago) link
everyone should play Deadly Premonition 1, but I can't speak to how well it plays on the switch since at least the 360 and PC versions all had their own problems.
― Judi Dench's Human Hand (methanietanner), Tuesday, 15 June 2021 20:06 (three years ago) link
play the 360 version. it's back compatible with the bone and series consoles too
if xbox is not an option, the various ports are all slightly worse than the 360 original: the director's cut extra content is pointless, game looks worse, performance is worse, crashes are more frequent. still worth checking out imo, but the switch one is the worst port of all i think
definitely don't bother with 2 unless you've played 1. i loved 1 but couldn't stomach 2, ymmv
― chihuahuau, Tuesday, 15 June 2021 20:25 (three years ago) link
yeah 2 was not well received even by huge fans of 1 so i stayed away. sounded like it was just worse all around - writing not as charming or engaging, performance downgraded from 'janky low budget game' to 'so broken it's barely playable'

This is the perfect steam deck to play beside my wife while she watches pretty little liars. I tried it when it came out and was one to jump out as soon as I had to jump in a car and navigate the games handling. Now, I’m having a ball. Very keen to try 2 as well, apparently the pc version fixes most/all of the performance woes of the switch

Incredibly on brand for this game: The steam achievement for completing episode 1 spoils who the killer is in its description. Couldn’t help but laugh when I saw it come up at the bottom of my screen. Oh well, let’s see how it all unfolds!
