Saw this while browsing 4chan randomly but seem,s legit enough.(This is from October 2012),not sure if i post it here.
I don't think he is lying because he stated The Evil Within and the new Wolfenstein were being developed before Bethesda announced them

Didn't saw a lot, but I'll try to say again some things: won't be out before 2014 or 2015, heavily modified IdTech5 (I don't think iD helped them for that), open world structure (towns, vehicles, etc).
Ambiance is a mix between Castlevania and Resident Evil 4. Thought there was a bit of Steampunk in some designs.
core gameplay is ala RE4 (controls, things like that).
(POSSIBLE SPOILER WARNING)

Spoiler

Story is something between Lovecraft (lots of psychological horror, things you can't see etc) and horror mangas ala Junji Ito (hero is infected by one of the zombies/aliens things and has to deal with it, as he's losing his humanity).

The only enemy having an IA (apart from the usual zombies with tentacles coming from their head) was amazing: sort of giant octopus turning invisible and making the presentation particularly scary and/or putting lots of stress over the player (like in RE4 or Dead Space).

I'm a huge fan of RE but i'm really not digging the character design in this game at all. too generic, especially the girl!

After watching the playthrough demo by pewdiepie, I sincerely hope they fix the frame rate.

Dusk Golem said:

Frame Rate was confirmed to be a video recording problem he ran into after he had already recorded the demo. This said, the game is already playable from start to finish right now according to people working at Tango, and the game was delayed a couple months (from August to October) to add extra polish, so likely things will be worked out regardless.

>I'm going PC version so frame rate will likely not be an issue. I expect it might be on 360/PS3, though.

Is it not on PS4/bone and is that reason the game looks like.... you know... poor?

I still feel that this game relies far too much on increasingly grotesque enemies and jump scares in order to unsettle the player. Unfortunately, it just ends up looking predictable and silly.
The game would be a lot more scarier if everything wasn't so obvious.

Grotesque is definitely one thing the game goes for. Bu obvious I didn't quite catch what you mean though. The response I want to give is mentioning the game has a lot of randomization elements, there's a random element of where enemies are, what the enemies are, where items are, and random chances for invincible enemy stalkers to appear, among other randomized elements when playing, but I feel that isn't related to what you mean by obvious.

Breakage said:

What I mean is that the horror elements are so overt. The dirty environments, hanging bodies, operating tables and blood on the walls/floor. It's all so obvious that something isn't right. There isn't anything mysterious about it at all. The game is immediately telling you that things are not normal. It doesn't allow the player's mind to wonder as it's always pushing the horror into your face.
I feel it will just desensitize the player much earlier than usual.
I think horror works best when it is subtle and mysterious.

I hope this game has some killed boss battles and not just unkillablel stalkers.

I'm getting really hyped for this game now, though.

A double post, but a new interview with Mikami that contains a few new details of the game just recently went live this morning:

http://mobile.pcauthority.com.au/Article.aspx?CIID=390575&type=Feature

Keypoints:
-He wants to give gamers a tremendous rush and have moments of both being the hunted and be able to overcome challenges and destroy your enemies.

-Says he was very cautious not to make an action shooter. He thinks one important element is finding the right amount of difficulty. Too easy, and its not a survival-horror game he says.

-Mikami has apparently played Left 4 Dead and Silent Hill, and uses them as examples of a faster-paced game of the genre that feels more action and a slower-paced example of the genre that feels more Adventure. He seems to think survival-horror is in the middle of action and adventure, but a big thing with him is difficulty.

-Names the settings of Shutter Island and Inception to be inspirations for Evil Within.

-Says outside of the weapons we have seen so far, the pistol, crossbow, shotgun and a hatchet; there will also be torches, sniper rifles, and magnums, as well as environmental traps. Says that there will be bigger unlockable guns you can get from completing the game for New Game+.

-Crossbow weapon is special and has many types of ammunition and trap capabilities, such as ice, poison, explosive, fire, and more, and can find supplies to craft ammo with it.

-Says he thinks there are enough puzzles in Evil Within, but clarifies this is not a puzzle game and makes it sound like none of them are overly difficult. He says the puzzles are a bit grotesque though and hopes people look forward to them.

-Talks a bit more about Sebastian's back-story. "Our protagonist is an ordinary detective, no special powers. He has a dark past: he lost his family in an unfortunate accident. But he struggles to make his life right doing good as a detective, despite his drinking habit. With him are his two sidekicks, Joseph, a second generation Japanese detective, and a green female detective who just joined the force, Kidman."

-Tals that for horror he thinks it needs to be challenging and be like a seesaw of sweet and sour, that the player must experience both the highs and lows of success and geared towards and against him. He believes the deeper in you go, the more it should be geared against you, and says the game needs to contentiously throw new situations, monsters, and the like at the player as once things become familiar it's no longer scary. He says the later half of the game is a lot more challenging as he also wants to build and mix on previously introduced elements.

This bit is great. It perfectly captures why REmake and RE4 are such great horror experiences. As soon as you think you are comfortable in a setting, the game throws in some enemies, and as soon as you think you are comfortable with those enemies, the game changes those enemies up. They never let you get too complacent, and things like crimson heads in REmake or the opening village onslaught in RE4 with Dr. Salvador play on the players expectations of what 'should' happen in a game. "Oh, I shot the zombie until it fell down and stopped moving. It must be dead", and "Oh, this is the beginning of the game so its going to gradually throw challenges at me and definitely not throw a one-hit kill chainsaw maniac at me if I seek shelter from a horde of enemies" are things that Mikami knows the player will have in their mind, so he just plays around with that. And that is scary.
