that somehow the devs see it and realize

#

Maybe do a Dead Space 2 kind of environment with that school level

velvet tree
#

Realism yes but after that whatv

You should use your energy in advocate for custom maps before this game commits suicide again

So what you're saying is that the pottsville community center after being told they have children on the radio and seeing children zombies spawn around the gym area or outside of it wouldn't have more impact and weight vs just a radio broadcast?

True, but they could cause a unique bleed, slightly push the player to other harm, swing faster than a runner with increased speed, etc. whatever more gameplay hindsight I could add. Asides that in the UE4 they are displayed as walkers also oddly

We gain more atmosphere of the world , more crude, the core part of the franchise and that is it , sounds simple and that is why people are bitching about it , such a simple concept a small runner skin causes a lot of imaginary trouble

#

you know hearing about something vs seeing it has way more impact right?

#

Like if you hear about deaths in wars

velvet tree
#

Yeah

tired agate
#

Imagiune its your first time being exposed to the franchise of NMRIH and you see that

#

not used to the concept

#

would hit WAY MORE

#

for the new player

#

duh

velvet tree
#

Dead Space 2 did a really good job on it but I just dont think that NMRIH would add that same weight to it though

#

that first impression of NMRIH as a game, with the pottsville gym being populated by zombie children

#

would hook people

#

it would show how dark this game can be

#

and ppl would appreciate it

#

the ones who care about dark games

#

which is a sizeable amount of people

velvet tree
#

Maybe a way to get around this is MAYBE a Civilian you have to put down thats infected and they beg for mercy before they turn?

#

That can be dark?

#

I wouldn't mind seeing some child zombies staying close to an adult zombie

#

just to provoke the player even more

#

when there is a fraction of humanity showing before you redead them

#

thats the point of zombies, is the uncanny valley

#

not human, but looks human

#

fragments of humanity, shuffling into a mockery driven by a virus that hijacked them

#

so yes, I do think zombie children has a place, in good taste for this game

#

just like how I fell in love with Ready or Not for showing naked people stuffed into a shipping container scared and cold

#

or basements of a shrine celebrating someones 18th birthday

#

vhs tapes with names

#

because THIS IS REALITY and happens everyday, and some people don't mind being reminded of HARSH REALITY

I thought it was just for consoles?

#

What did they change?

tired agate
#

Exibit A

#

COMPLETELY ruined the actual climax of the level

velvet tree
#

It still feels creepy though

tired agate
#

in world building

velvet tree
#

And it doesnt change what they were doing

tired agate
#

replaced with ai generated slop

velvet tree
#

Still has the pictures

tired agate
#

sure the art is 'creepy' but the whole point of that level

warped vault
tired agate
#

was to shock the player with the fact you're facing a large scale pedo ring

#

with barrels in a ditch

#

flies buzzing around them

#

Hopscotch chalk and strange filming rooms

#

The climax was supposed to be that final confrontation of a man obsessed with his daughter

#

And connecting all the dots into one big horrifying picture as you progress through the map

#

which is ruined with that doll shit

#

ppl LAUGH at it

velvet tree
#

My guess: someone threat lawsuit

#

Has to be

tired agate
#

yes, which is why I personally will be backtracking my games

#

with emulation

#

games that had integrity

velvet tree
#

Idrc if it still has good gameplay and it is not to botched then idrc

tired agate
#

and ability to actually be art

velvet tree
#

It still had the school and nightclub level

tired agate
#

I also stopped playing RoN also because every public lobby, and the discord is full of children now too

#

Because thats what they censored it for with their console release.

#

THINK OF THE CHILDREN

sick current
