I have no idea what this game is, but it reminds me of the prometheus movie.

Or is it just one of Phil's balls in my throat?
Not surprising. This games art style is veeeeeeeeeeeeery H.R Giger inspired.

Definitely gonna check this out on GP since it's quite Giger looking minus the elegance many of his paintings have.

You know I kinda wish they would put old adventure game style puzzles in some of these walking simulators. I often think I'm totally in for just the story and atmosphere and they they leave me bored and I leave them unfinished. This is again one that I think I want, tho. I'll make sure to look a lil more closely when it's out.

You remember the super contra final boss ? imagine you jump inside that thing after defeating it and then you wake up in Scorn. Loving the aesthetics.

Terrence Howard is doing some important work these days. He has defined the grand unified field equation and come up with some new sort of propulsion system. Incredible stuff.

Scorn review – Giger-inspired horror puzzler is a revulsive but rewarding nightmare | Games | The Guardian
An evocative work of art but the things the game evokes are so unpleasant players might need to ration the lengths of their sessions

4/5 from The Guardian. I hope this is good on the Steam Deck.

The First 'Scorn' Reviews Have Arrived, And Feedback Is Mixed So Far
Update: We've now got a lot more of them!
www.purexbox.com
NME had theirs up, but both got taken down. NME sounds like they got frustrated on “where to go next”, so that must have been why they gave it a 3/5. There’s been the 4/5 and the 3/5 so far.
I was really disappointed in Agony, so I hope this is much better.

Is this a “where the hell am i supposed to go” walking simulator?

Cool for a tenner it seems

I bought a sex doll, but I keep it inflated 100% of the time and use it like a regular wife
Games seems very immersive and perfect for rolling a spliff, turning off the lights, plugging the headphones in, getting comfy on the sofa and playing it on a huge TV.

Kinda it seems. I think you get a flesh gun at some point and there's some things you need to shoot. But it seems more puzzle/walking simulator from the gameplay so far.

Imagine it in VR.

Probably amazing, for sure.
And honestly, I can see a VR version happening if the game has success. It's a slow paced first person game after all, the perfect kinda game for VR.

I can't say much - but what I will say is that horror fans are in for an amazing treat. Stay tuned for tomorrow morning for the final word. Very early in the morning

Bro, don't do this to me. I had forgotten the game was coming out already and the hype machine just went from 0 to 100.

Oh I will. Just remember to shut your lights off. Shut your door, put on some surround sound and forget about the real world for a few hours.

Its weird that all these outlets have reviews ready to go but can’t release them until after the game is out. I could understand if the code went out late but just holding off reviews is weird
Elder Legend

it's called Embargo Rules and NDA. Otherwise, we get blacklisted and do not get codes anymore. This is how it works, those are the rules of the game and if you want to be in it you have to obey it. it's marketing stuff and publishers are the ones who make up the rules.

I’m aware, release date embargo’s in general are lame

I'd have to disagree, there is usually a reason why those exist. Some maybe kind of silly and not make any sense sure, but not all of them. Every company has reasons to when such information is allowed to be disclosed.

You think its fair for a publisher to sell a game while telling gaming outlets to hold on to reviews that inform consumers of what they’re getting until after its on sale?

100% of the embargos come out on the day of the game's release or prior to it, so I am not sure what you think the problem is. If the person is interested in purchasing the product on the day it comes out, the reviews will always be available that day. No one is forcing you to pre-order anything, that is all on you based on previews and game info. If you purchased a product before looking at its reviews and it turned out doo-doo that is the consumers fault for not doing research. Is it nice if embargos come out prior to release dates? Yeah sure, but that's not always the case and again the review information is available on day. I do not think you have a good argument here.

Those games do have great atmosphere. My only push back to your criteria, is the idea that an environment would have to be elaborate to be considered atmospheric.
I would admit that "most" games that pull off that atmospheric feeling in their environments, do tend to be elaborate, but I believe that is correlation and not causation. If done right, a bedroom closet can have "atmosphere". It's about invoking a feeling in the player.

Well no one can play until its out. Then anyone can review it. Reviewing it early is up to them

This is a weird over-exaggeration. The number of games that get early reviews are in the extreme minority. In an overwhelming number of cases reviews come out on launch day.
AAA games can afford to have reviews come out early, even if the reviews aren't that great, they don't have anything to worry about. Scorn is a small publishers first game. They probably don't have that luxury.

This place is notorious for saying the game probably isn't good if reviews are published the day of release.
Honestly feels like this has been the sentiment for a long while.
