[REC] Desolation

[i]Disclaimer: I'm aware the game is short and from a small studio. Won't use video this time or shots to avoid spoiler.[/i] [code]THIS MIGHT NOT GOING TO WORK IF YOU'RE ABOVE 25[/code] Sometimes I think when certain luckies finally gets the chance to produce a game, its used as a escape goat for something else. Though its more honest than the big studios---but after they consume classic media, I guess the end result is the remains of that; these type of games. (Not saying it is, but might). I often say in reviews that this kinda of thing makes gaming looking like a creative dump, rather than a source of such. [h1]More cons than pros makes Cy a dull gurl[/h1] 1- There is no continue/checkpoint if you leave. If you can't continue by any chance, its back from zero all over again. Same for language choice menu, won't save last pick. [b]Example;[/b] I had a bug where a door closes, and a thing was supposed to vanish. The door never opened again and I had to restart. 2- Instability with graphics might force rebooting. Rather than fixing it, they left notes like "it might crash" if you pick a language for example. [b]Example;[/b] During gameplay the game started to stutter for no reason. Rebooting to fix it made me lose progress. 3- Predictable. It relies over script triggers and context commands. "Player steps here, activate it, repeat it." 4- Character walks VERY slowly---when running with shift, gets tired real fast. Rather than immersive this is just annoying. 5- Uninteresting background plot, no motivation given to explore or to find, other than "Ethan journalist" and "big mansion lots killed." 6- Cheap jump scare is everywhere. It is so bad even the game admits it when loading. Can't scare you? So I'll throw flying xit at your face. [code]THE LIST CONTINUES IN THE REPORT, THOUGH LESS IMPORTANT THAN THE ABOVE[/code] 7- Another main character named Ethan. Sigmund Freud might explain this xit because I don't know where that comes from. 8- I thought REC was from that Spanish movie's universe, that was later indiscriminately copied by Hollywood goons as "Quarantine." Well, it is not. 9- Unintuitive puzzles are just a guess-what, absolutely not fun. 10- Walking around with a camera is a category or/of genre, but in games it won't always work. [b]Why's that:[/b] Can't really pretend what you're seeing is "lost footage" in gaming anyway, because you're the active player. The illusion won't work the same in my opinion. Outlast did it a little more interestingly, since the camera is a survival tool used to see at dark. In Rec, it is permanent, mandatory to use it all the time = it might get tiresome real fast. 11- Level design is very limited, often predictable. Though visually looks okay, I had no interest to find anything new not even these weird puzzles. 12- Immersion breaking objectives keeps popping on screen because the game won't flow naturally without it. [b]Example;[/b] I gave up playing when another objective popped up: "[b]escape to the car![/b]" and like 69% of the owners of this game, I failed to follow this simple instruction---because the game commands you around rather than actually make you see what's going on, then make you react to it yourself. Amnesia series and Monstrum shows how small studios can pull new good stuff off, yet totally originally and really scary. If you can sustain all the topics from above, you can have a somewhat okay creepy night, if that's what you're looking forward to? I wonder. [h1]Not to be scatty, a few positives I saw:[/h1] 1- Music is ambient horror, but loops constantly. 2- The exterior and some models looks good for a small studio. 3- Camera can also help to unsettle things up. 4- Sinister moments are usually silly to me, but I'd say its more mature and smart than jump-scares. [h1]Final Score: 3.8/10 It works for tonight's streaming to pretend you're scared and ask for subscriptions[/h1] Making horror is particularly hard because a lot of stuff has already being invented, so whenever horror shows up, it will only stand out if its stepping in somewhere new. That doesn't mean you can't try it out and have some fun, maybe you'll enjoy it, but I had to tolerate it till I got bored. Won't even refund it because it was like 9 bucks and I feel bad doing so.

[h1][url=https://store.steampowered.com/curator/43715729/]Моя кураторская страница "Достойные или нет херроры"[/url][/h1] [b][REC] Desolation[/b] - типичный коротенький хоррор на ассетах пятого "анрила" с [u]вырвиглазным фильтром[/u], который только портит картинку, слабой историей, нудным геймплеем и банальными джампскейрами. Таких игр полно в Steam, и этот проект может понравиться только тем, кто только начинает погружение в жанр; опытным игрокам будет попросту скучно. Главный герой приезжает в заброшенное место, чтобы снять о нём фильм: здесь, мол, происходят необъяснимые паранормальные вещи. История подаётся только в виде [i]записок[/i], и сюжет настолько банален, что вы забудете, о чём была игра, уже через полчаса после финала. Никаких роликов, интересных заметок или деталей тут нет. Геймплейно вы просто бродите, тыкаетесь по углам, ждёте, пока что-то активируется или откроется дверь, - идёте дальше и так до самого конца. В финале получите [u]одну очень лёгкую и нестрашную погоню[/u] - и всё. В игре также есть [b]буквально один пазл[/b], но разнообразия он не добавляет. Пугать будут очевидными джампскейрами: то страшная рожа, то тень за стеной "следит", а при приближении пропадает - всё это мы видели в сотнях (если не тысячах) подобных проектах. И, казалось бы, можно было бы сказать, что это простенький хоррор "на любителя": ну, взяли по скидке, под пивко пробежали за 30 минут, получили пару скейров - и на этом всё. Но зачем-то в игру добавили [u]ужасный фильтр камеры[/u]: всё постоянно блеклое/выжженное и буквально давит на глаза. [b]Выключить камеру нельзя[/b] - иначе получите просто чёрный экран. Очередной проект, где используют Unreal, а картинка при этом - ужас. Локации однообразные, графика убогая, и вы постоянно будете думать: "Когда же это закончится?" [quote][b][REC] Desolation[/b] - суперпроходной хоррор, который делает плохо даже самые банальные вещи. Некрасиво, не атмосферно, сюжет глуп, и главное - совершенно не страшно. Если вы прям супер-любитель коротких бродилок и лёгких ачивок - можно взять и пробежать, когда будет большая скидка. В другом случае, поверьте, оно того не стоит. Есть хорроры куда пугающе и качественнее.[/quote]

[b] P. S. If you have difficulties in the walktrough, this guide will be very useful: [/b] https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3561496240 [h1] Came, saw a ghost, and bounced [/h1] [REC] Desolation isn’t a direct sequel to Paroxysm – it’s a standalone story, but it’s twice as bad and half as long as the previous part of the series, god forgive me. You play as Ethan Carter, investigating the ruins of a mansion abandoned back in the mid-20th century, supposedly cursed, so there are supernatural forces howling around; actually, the whole story is just told through five notes scattered across the game. First-person gameplay through a camera view: you walk through corridors, mostly at night, making everything black and white and adding zero atmosphere. There’s one puzzle, done sloppily and predictably easy, one monster chase at the end – and that’s it, game over. It takes up over 10 GB for such a short game. Basically, it’s the same crap as the previous game, avoid it and don’t get tricked by the high rating. [h3] Verdict: [/h3] https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3612049014 [i] P.

[REC] DESOLATION | 4K 60FPS | TÜRKÇE | Full Gameplay https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fqlJh7A0mTU&list=PL2kPyX3esUBM4F0hfuTtAjZirikjS2naH&index=6

前作から遊んでいますがやはりカメラ視点の映像質感が好きです:-Pホラーゲームにぴったりな映像ですよね。プレイ時間も1時間弱ぐらいでクリア出来ましたし、あ、最初にアクション操作説明があると助かります！しゃがみってどれだろうとしばらくあたふたしてました(;'∀')

Waoo, me pegué los mismos sustos que cuando era niño con los juegos "screamer", ¡podía escuchar correr esa cosa detrás de mí! Me gustó ese intento de gráficos casi realistas tipo grabación pero me decepcioné un poquillo por su corta historia, creí que iba a durar un poco más pero aún así un juegazo, espero una segunda parte o una que otras historias similares, se lo merece. 9.5/10

Krótka gierka na ok godzinę , ale bardzo fajna . Graficznie bardzo ładnie , jest klimatycznie i parę razy wydarłem mordę :D Cena też na plus .

Es una experiencia de terror corta pero intensa que logra atraparte desde el primer minuto. La mansión Vandermere está cargada de atmósfera: pasillos oscuros, sonidos inquietantes y una sensación constante de que no estás solo. Lo bueno: Ambientación excelente con gráficos y sonido que ponen los pelos de punta. Historia intrigante que se va revelando poco a poco mediante notas y recortes. Puzzles bien integrados que hacen que avanzar sea gratificante. Una duración ajustada que asegura tensión constante, sin relleno. Lo malo: Al ser una experiencia corta, puede dejar con ganas de más. No es recomendable si no disfrutas del terror psicológico. En resumen: Ofrece justo lo que promete: una dosis de terror compacto, inmersivo y memorable, ideal para una noche de sustos y misteriooo Si quieren ver mas...
