Let us take a moment of silence for what the future of horror could've been.

a jungle?

It was just a mediocre Youtube bait demo with a few jumpscares.

People just keep sucking it's dick because muh Kojimbo.

The voice acting on the radio and phonecalls are great though. Actually believable.
>>
It's getting reannounced by Sony in a week though

It's a reference to Eraserhead, in the same vein that Silent Hill 2's plot was based on Lost Highway. Both David Lynch movies with disturbing nightmare logic and symbolism.
>>
>>340339319
it was probably an Eraserhead reference, keeping in the Silent Hill tradition of using American horror films as inspiration.
>>
>>340339960
It wasn't meant for one person to figure out, it was supposed to be a collaborative internet effort around the globe that took weeks to solve the mystery of what the fuck P.T. was. But it was done in like a day by dumb luck.

The jumpscare is the only thing that kills it for me.
But I doubt it would have any attention from most people if it was just puzzle solving with creepy things.

That's what is supposed to keep you tense and on edge. You wanted to keep going but the fear of being scared is what made it great.
>>
I WILL BE COMING BACK
AND I'M BRINGING MY NEW TOYS WITH ME
>>
>>340339168
Forests are scary as fuck, though. Anon, the basis of all fear stems from fear of the unknown, which is why many good horror games leave you wondering what the fuck is even happening. You're confused and you don't know what's about to happen, and that makes you scared.
Ultimately, this stems from when humans were living in tiny villages, and the woods outside represented everything unknown and dangerous. You don't know what the fuck is in there. Definitely wolves, probably witches. But trees in general obscure visibility, block out the sun, and make it hard to tell where you're going. Fuck trees. Even today, people get scared shitless at the thought of getting lost in the woods, or running into creepy shit hiding inside said woods.
>>
>>340341620
You can't change hundreds of thousands of years of evolution. We will always be afraid in dense areas where we can't see anything.
>>
>>340340156
>I doubt it would have any attention from most people if it was just puzzle solving with creepy things

This is why there are no horror games anymore and this game is dead and buried.

Just stop thinking about PT. Forget it.
>>
>>340338986
I actually just played this about a week ago.
My friend had it on his PS4 the entire time, so he let me play it. He said after my playthrough he was going to delete it since he wanted to connect to the internet.

Anyway, it was pretty good. It had the atmosphere down. It had jump scares, but not only jumpscares. Had just general creepiness. If you listened to the radio, it made it a lot more scary.
I wish their were more parts with the dead wife, and that we got to see the dead girl. I guess the whole "There is only one me, are you sure there is only one you?" was implying you were playing as the guy that killed his family. I remember by the front door, if you look up, there was a second floor. Wish they did something with that, look the dead wife/daughter standing by the balcony just looking at you. Would be creepy as hell. But nothing was done with that area from my playthrough, or any i saw on youtube.

During the end, it got tedious as fuck. To the point where it made it not scary anymore. But it was only a playable teaser, so I doubt the real game would of been like that.

Overall, I liked it. Im glad I got to play it before my friend deleted it once and for all.

Anon, they did do that with the balcony. You missed it
>>
>>340341620
Forests aren't scary at all. I've lived in them my entire life, they're relaxing.
The only thing you need to really worry about are bears coming onto your property looking for food, but the bears around here are black bears and small. Mountain lions leave humans alone unless they're starving or feral.
Really the scariest thing in the forest, and also the one that has the most chance to harm you, is other people. And they're going to be anywhere you go, not just the forest.

Just because it wasn't related to the story doesn't mean it would be a radically different game.

how come this pic is in a forest when the entire demo was in a hallway in an urban area

>>340344593
DAMN you serious? I didn't think of that. I assumed it was something through from outside.
>>
>>340344592
>cheap

nothing happens if you don't play like a retard

the only jumpscare is the window one, you can avoid the rest
>>
>>340343413
It probably would have played like an old Silent Hill but it probably would have had a lot of the alternate reality and interface fuckery in there as well. Which is why I never gave a fuck about Allison Road, I still have the PT demo and a dozen other spooky hallway games I don't have a new quality Silent Hill game.
>>
I'm a total wuss I cannot play horror games or watch horror films
>>
>>340344658
He had PT on his PS4, he held off connecting to the internet since it deletes PT. He was saving it for me since I never got to play it. After I played it, he was going to connect to the internet which will delete it.

How does it not make sense?

>>340344701

When the window breaks thats when Lisa is on the balcony.
See>>340344030

Its the only point of the game when she is up there.
>>
>>340344427
>>340344556
Maybe because the people making alison road realized they're just talentless indie hacks?
>>
>>340344701
Because of when you escape the house and get to explore the forest.
>>
>>340344750
What are you talking about? If you're going in blind, exploring around and taking your time, how am I supposed to avoid the jumpscares? I doubt anybody played through the whole thing without getting at least a couple of the jumpscares.

>>340345007
Play it blind. Don't avoid the jumpscares. Having one or two is good to keep you on your toes, punctuating the atmosphere.
The problem is when they're nonstop; that's when they get boring. Conversely, having no sudden scare or threat can get you too used to even a really nightmarish landscape. Good horror times them to get you right at peak fear levels.

Looking back on the old silent hills games, this had the potential to be the best fucking horror game ever. No other series comes close to how fucked up silent hills is, and with PT's graphics, it wouldve been crazy.
