If you’re a true crime fan, this is going to be the one for you, while also showing you the dangers of letting a true crime obsession go too far. Sometimes, I guess we all need a reminder that going to an exact replica of a place where gruesome murders happened is a terrible idea, even if it is in the name of ‘art’.
The Devil in Me is a really good, surprisingly well thought out horror game. It offers a tense atmosphere in its beautiful, haunted hotel. Next time, it’d be nice to see better actors and actresses and work on the main characters’ mental side, however. Still, it’s a proper horror to be enjoyed alone or with friends.
The Dark Pictures Anthology: The Devil in Me is an amazing way to end the first season the Dark Pictures Anthology and leaves the player on their seat, wanting more. The cast is seemingly dumb at first but is very realistic to real life stereotypes like the instigator, the nervous wreck, the heartbroken, the air-headed, etc and features game play which is better than all other entries in The Dark Pictures Anthology. The branching and story is phenomenal, but compared to other entries, such as House of Ashes and Man of Medan, the story can seem to be quite lacking. The game has little bugs compared to its predecessors such as Man of Medan, Little Hope and House of Ashes (which all had some form of game-breaking glitch that was never resolved until the latter half of the PS4 and Xbox One's life). The Devil in Me is an amazing way to end season one of TDPA and easily makes me giddy when thinking about its next game "Directive 8020" which will take place in space and will have a similar concept to The Thing.
Supermassive Games successfully concludes the first season of The Dark Pictures Anthology on a thundering note. Powerful performances from a diverse cast of characters and an extremely interesting premise based off of real-life serial killer H.H. Holmes allows The Devil In Me to outshine its predecessors in just about every way.
The Dark Pictures Anthology continues to deliver intriguing stories told through a well-written narrative. Only this time, it feels like we have even less control over the flow of the story. Whether the controls are to blame, weird choices or an even more present army of bugs and glitches, The Devil in Me remains an excellent addition to the franchise, but the next one should be better.
While Supermassive’s formula is starting to need a bit of a punch-up, and the H. H. Holmes Murder Castle is surprisingly less compelling than the earlier anthology settings, The Devil in Me is still a solid slasher story for horror fans to enjoy.
The Devil in Me is another competent and enjoyable enough entry in The Dark Pictures Anthology, but it fails to reach the heights of House of Ashes or even Little Hope. With a lot of potential squandered, it's left to the familiar gameplay loop of past instalments to deliver a robust title. With some new features, the season one finale offers just enough to make the deadly trip worthwhile for fans.
With so much potential under their belt after their last successful release, Supermassive dropped the ball with The Devil in Me, leaving players with crappy graphics, crappier mechanics and the crappiest of characters.
This one is absolutely fantastic, by far the best one of the series. Really a great game that is up there with Until Dawn. After House of Ashes i thought the series is dead already but Devil in me is **** legendary. It is really much better than the other 3 games of the series.
Это техническое недоразумение. Почему спустя полтора года после релиза в игре существуют проблемы с обрезанием диалогов. Невидимыми стенами, нелутабельными предметами? Где хоть какая-то поддержка после релиза?
Somit habe ich alle Teile der ersten Season abgeschlossen. Spiele machen Spaß. Hier gab es wieder gute Grafik, eine nette Atmosphäre sowie einen netten Schauplatz. Auch der Antagonist war cool gemacht, die Protagonisten aber leider wieder nervig geschrieben. Die Steuerung teilweise sehr hakelig und ausbaufähig. Das geht heutzutage schon deutlich besser.
Honestly kind of blown away by all the great reviews. Huge fan of Supermassive's games usually. Have enjoyed the TDPA for the most part, and I feel like this is their worst game by a very wide margin.
It feels awful. Like, the "gameplay" part of these games has never been their strong points. But this game feels particularly bad and janky. The story, albeit shallow, could have been interesting, and I gave it every chance to get interesting, but it's really not. It starts shallow, stays shallow, and ends shallow.
Your choices matter less than they ever did in TDPA games and they feel less weighty. Genuinely just feels like a flip of a coin this time. There's no logic re: "if I choose this, this could happen." Which I think is kind of crucial in a choose-your-own-adventure type game.
I'm sorry, but this is horrible. Not sure what the BTS on this game was like, but this feels like it was made by the studios' C Team or something.
The characters are also just... bad. No real standout performances, brutally bad dialog, there's just nothing good here.
Happy some people seem to enjoy this game, I guess. Absolutely puzzled by it, but it is what it is.
Начнем с персонажей, которые противоречат самим себе и их умения или страхи не пригодится в прохождения игры. У нас есть персонаж по имени Марк, у него страх высоты, но на протяжения игры нам это показывает только в начале, а потом про это забывают. Взаимодействия персонажей не чувствуется. На счет ловушек напишу немного их мало и они не логичны, как и происходящие события в игре. На счет маньяка, его цель просто убивать, но он ничего не делает для этого, когда он преследует жертву можно пару раз обежать весь отель, потому-что он очень медленно двигается. А игра нам показывает что он успевает по всюду, когда персонажи раскиданы по всему отелю. Сюжета нет. Есть проблемы в лицевой анимации и бывает пропадает озвучка или субтитры.
