I vote for Aave the Cheerleader :). Nice throwback to Heroes

I've been saying it for ages that this is going to be a sleeper hit and a GOTY candidate, and it seems I might be right.
HYPE!

I was just speaking to someone on my friend list who has the game and finished it a few hours ago. He said the story blew him away. I mean not even I expected the story to be as good as it seems to be!

That seems crazy to me when it seemed like it was just endeavouring to be a well done schlocky B horror story lol. Is it transcending beyond? :O
 
Live action trailer for those of you who haven't seen it yet.

Haven't seen the first trailer among the two in this video. I see that the good ol "hit the guy once and run" is still getting plenty of work these days. Will these young people ever learn that when they have the advantage they should start beating some fucks out these shits?

Anyways, looking forward to the game. I have no way to prove it, but I've always been excited about this title ever sine it was first unveiled back in 2012 or whenever for the PS3. I remember it being unveiled along that game with the invisible boy running through a old looking English town at night. And it rained all the time so you could see his figure when he wasn't sheltered. I wonder whatever happened to that game.

It's called 'Rain' and was on PS+ last month.

Damn, shows you how much I've been keeping up with games lately lol. I have PS Plus but hardly ever touch for PS4 for anything other than Street Fighter 4 and 5. My PS4 is basically just my Street Fighter box, but maybe that will change with Until Dawn.

What the hell, reading these impressions...this was completely off my radar, as I assumed it'd be pretty poor (despite the fact that I love cinematic games), but by the sounds of things, it might actually be quite solid?

Have you been following the game at all? Because honestly, this never looked poor. The thing is that instead of this being just good, it seems like it might be something fantastic.

A lot of people were worried about the story/script, but if this thread is anything to go by it seems like they really pulled through and nailed it.

I completely wrote this off initially, to coming around to just being worried about the writing, to being outright excited.

I love sleepers. Hope this one delivers on the impressions.

I knew what type of game this was, but I didn't know what to expect about it's quality. I can't say much because I'm under embargo, but I'm pleasantly surprised.

*sigh*

I was so sure this was going to be a game to wait on until the price came down. So damn sure...

*opens wallet*
 
Yes yes!

So have all Gaffers reviewing this said they're happy with it?

I believe so. Fucking hype! If this turns out good it's going to be really hard for me to pick a GOTY. Then again if it's really good it may be an easy choice. I'm already biased toward it just because of the type of game it is. Can't wait to play it.
 
character models and their facial animations look disappointing for a game like this.

I couldn't disagree more. I'm in awe of the details while playing. When you pause the game, it has a close up of the character your playing as and can move their eyes. I've just stared watching the face cause it was that good.

I don't think I've seen enough about this game, but everything I have seen makes it just look like Heavy Rain or some other full length quick time event. Is there something I've missed? Can't understand why people are so excited.

My thoughts exactly. Doesn't look like much of a game.
 
Refuse to get hyped for this even though my copy is shipped and credit card is charged

I can't recall a game with bad early impressions. I remember people on here who got The Order early saying it could be a GOTY candidate (lol)
 
Dark times, to be sure.

I enjoyed the Order but it was a flawed game for sure. Until Dawn is a game focused on the cinematic aspects and is its ultimate aim. It won't be for everyone but I feel it's going to have a big following.

There is a fan base for Silent Hill shattered memories and that game is little more then a "running/walking simulator" according to some.

I see some absolutely loving this and wanting to restart to see different outcomes or find more clues right away. Until Dawn def knows what it wants to be and pushes for it. The Order had a identity crisis really.

Though I'm on media blackout, something told me to finally check this thread. These impressions...FUUUUU.

Local store has the game but I need to hold out for that Best Buy GCU discount. Only a few more days...
