I'm shocked, I thought this was the guy that made Resident Evil 1. Turns out it was the guy that made Resident Evil 4.

[QUOTE=BOXHOUND;46389291]Same guy. Also Yahtzee's bad at this game.[/QUOTE] Or maybe someone isn't willing to admit that Evil Within actually sounds like a clusterfuck spook house more than a spiritual Resident Evil game.
but I love evil within I can't deal with this
What's with the absolutely terrible quality?
It's a reupload from some random guy that added Hispanic subtitles. If want to watch the official uploads without a delay you gotta go to the [URL="http://www.escapistmagazine.com/video-games/videos"]escapist's website[/URL]
The Evil Within isn't a game you'd need to play more than once, which is why it isn't a true Shinji/Resident Evil/Survival Horror production in my opinion. That and the fact it's story is awful, the characters are garbage and it borrows far too heavily from other games to stand out as it's own. (Everything literally references to every single horror game ever, there's literally no key elements the game can call it's own.)
[QUOTE=massaki;46391596]That and the fact it's story is awful, the characters are garbage [/QUOTE] No RE game has had a good story or good characters.
It looks like Silent Hill.
[QUOTE=Super Muffin;46391773]No RE game has had a good story or good characters.[/QUOTE] RE4 is the best b-movie video game in existent and RE4 Leon is the prettiest prettyboy and sassiest character in any video game. RE4 is fucking amazing in the story and character regards, well its amazing in every regard. You take it back.

[QUOTE=Cone;46392001]like how john matrix in commando isn't so much a character as much as a bunch of action movie tropes holding a machine gun, leon is the personification of the backflipping knife-fight[/QUOTE] And sometimes that's all a game needs, as it stands Sebastian in TEW is hardly a character at all, he's a gritty gloom machine who has zero justification for actually existing in the plot.
The Evil Within is more difficult in terms of the monsters that you casually kill are harder than the 'bosses'. It's pretty screwy. The optimization of the game is shit as well. The story is all over the place. The times that you actually have your cop buddies with you, they're fairly useless, while the AI that attacks you seems to be 100% accurate, with no reloads. I'm at a part where the zombies have crossbows, and can shoot exploding arrows every 1-2 seconds if you're close to them. Since you're in an apartment, IT'S ALWAYS FUCKING CLOSE.
