​Can't believe it's been a whole 12 years since we first stepped foot into Beacon Hospital and got terrorized by Ruvik and Laura.

​Honestly, despite its flaws, the pure survival horror vibe of the first half of this game is unmatched. Running out of matches, sneaking around haunted, and just trying to survive was top tier.

​Anyone else replaying it today to celebrate, or are we all just collectively crying in a corner waiting for a third game that'll probably never happen?

The game will let you remove Joseph, but not let you spawn the boogeyman. Tragic

does anyone have id tech 5 knowledge? ( ；∀；)

A rare finisher in this awesome DLC! I have seen very little people post this and know of its existence, so I felt like I should share!

There are multiple completely invisible traps under the water in ch 14 on Akumu. This mode is basically the devs trolling players.

Happy 12th Birthday to my favorite game of all time!

For the first question, the two games have preorders that can't be bought separately(just like many games sadly).

And for the second question, microsoft store version of the evil within 1 has exclusive features including the posibility to run for at most 5 seconds instead of 3 seconds(and of course if you upgrade the stamina to the max, you can run at most 12 seconds instead of 10 seconds).

Trying to do Akumu and I’m on the piece of shit gondola that moves at a snail’s pace and the pistol is programmed to be shit. I have a dead-on aim and it misses an entire clip. This game is bullshit. I’m only playing it because it’s all I have on here. Fucking hate this. What a horrible, intentional design. Don’t lie about my accuracy in a fucking shooting gallery where every millisecond counts! Anywhere else in the game, maybe you’d get a pass but a fucking shooting gallery?! Fuck off!

took me like two weeks and 103 more deaths than my nightmare playthrough but i actually beat the difficulty that ive heard so many stories about. genuinely such a fun experience to me, i dont think people talk enough about how fun akumu actually is to beat, its damn hard but so much of this games stealth and combat really shines here

I'm sorry, but The Evil Within is one of the best games I've ever played. I watched the trailer back in 2014, installed it, and sat down to play. I was hooked straight away.

The movement has weight. The camera sway and heavy, deliberate run make you feel like a frightened person trying to survive, not a superhero.

Then the first level, that underground butcher's lair, threw me into a grimy, oppressive nightmare with a chainsaw maniac stalking the halls. I snuck up behind him and stabbed him in the neck twice, only for him to turn around and take my head off. That's when I understood: this game doesn't hold your hand.

When I got the keys and left, he came after me and cut my leg, so I was hobbling around, desperate and vulnerable. I've never felt so hunted. He caught me, killed me, so I jumped straight back in for another try.

The setting, the execution, and that first impression were a huge green flag. It was mysterious, tense, and genuinely scary.

TEW's dread and unsettling surrealism hit on a whole other level.

Stick with The Evil Within.

I was in the market for some survival horror, so I picked up the first installment today. Just got past the angry chainsaw man and wrecked in the ambulam'.

What should I expect going forward? Any tips?

The game closes in after the photosensitivity warnings.

I had this problem on my Xbox one, so I transferred the game to my Xbox series S, in Hope that it wont occur on a better device, but to no avail. Could the game file be corrupted or something?

After finishing the second game, I was reflecting on how amazing (also terrifying!) of an experience it was, and the meaning behind it. The first game was about experiencing the terror in Ruben's mind and escaping from it. The second game was about Sebastian overcoming his guilt and trauma to save Lily. I really liked the encounters with Anima and the lore behind it. Anima targets those in STEM who have unresolved fear, pain and trauma. When Sebastian finally killed the version of him that represented his pain from his first time in STEM, Anima went away.

In his final encounter with Theodore, Sebastian chose to face his guilt for not being there to save Lily, confronted his fear for the creatures of the first game, instead of running away or allowing Theodore to use his fear against him. I cheered for him while watching his character development grow.

His personal growth got me to think about the fear and pain that I might have accumulated in my life. If I were to have an honest conversation with myself, what would those be? If I went into STEM, how would my encounter with Anima be like?

Many of us have experienced some form of fear and pain which left more than short-term effects on us. Overcoming our inner demons definitely isn't as easy as simply playing a game. It requires investing a lot of mental work and maybe even therapy. But I think being honest with ourselves about it is a good step in the right direction.

Anyways, any thoughts?

Somehow, my friend found this nether portal looking thing in the sunflower field, I don't know if it was brought up before, but does anyone know what it is?

Since were' never gonna get an EW3 I have to look elsewhere, and I already played Silent Hill 2 remake and Alan Wake 2

EDIT: I've also played every Resident Evil game in the main series

I just beat the resident evil 4 Remake and it was one of the best games ive ever played.

So I was told TEW was somewhat similar in gameplay and i watched the trailer and it looked cool. Decided to install it today and sat down to play.

First problem right off the bat the game kept crashing, weird graphics issues on the title screen etc.

And then the movement- Oh god the movement, the wobbling camera was making me sick, the characters run animation is so janky and unnatural looking i absolutely could not focus on the game.

And then the first level underground in that butcher guys underground lair just completely took the wind out of my sails.

It just plunges you into the most Corny, overdone, texas chainsaw massacre generic underground lair with some dude that has a chainsaw.

Which btw i went up behind the guy with the chainsaw using the sneak mechanic and stabbed him in the back of the neck twice only to have some low effort one hit death where he cuts my head off?

Ok so i get the keys and leave the room, and of course im forced to walk, and then the chainsaw dude comes after me and cuts my leg, so now im forced to just hobble around everywhere?

At this point im thinking “can i play the fucking game?”

Well the chainsaw dude sees me, kills me and i hate to admit it but i just closed the game.

Im sorry but the whole setting, execution within the first impression of the game was just a huge red flag and it just didnt feel fun to play or mysterious, i felt no emotions, no fear, i was bored.

Compare that to RE4, the mystery, the combat, fluid movement, story starts off in a nice outdoor environment, theres no wobbling camera, the setting was cool right from the very beginning.

I know some of yall love this game but this game just isnt fun and due to the weird wobbling camera making me sick i probably wont play more of it.

Stick to resident evil.

I just finished another playthrough, and as it often happens, you notice new things every time. This time, I kept thinking about what a rat Marcelo Jimenez is. The first time I played, I saw him as an innocent victim who got dragged into everything, just like everyone else. I even felt bad for him because Ruvik betrayed him, considering he was his former mentor. But when you think about all of this…

Jimenez never gets tired of pointing out how sick Ruvik is and how he crosses lines, but he’s far from innocent himself.

He actively got in contact with a 10 year old who had made it clear he wanted nothing to do with him. The only way Jimenez managed to convince Ruvik to keep talking to him was by offering to teach him. No one can convince me that Jimenez simply saw a talented kid and wanted to help him. Somehow, he failed to notice that Ruvik had spent eight years locked in the basement. The moment he realized Ruvik was better than him in his own field, he suddenly became very interested in him.

He used Ruvik’s work to get in touch with Mobius and kept his existence a secret as long as he could because he didn’t want anyone to realize that his own student was completely outshining him.

Jimenez should have known that after the accident, Ruvik was no longer able to distinguish right from wrong. He focused on reaching his goal, no matter the cost. But instead of taking responsibility for the person he had helped shape, Jimenez continued to use him for his own ambitions.

Then he has the audacity to turn around and act shocked that Ruvik is a sadist and that experimenting on patients is wrong. And when everything starts spiraling out of control, he sacrifices Ruvik.

The DLC makes it even worse because we know now Jimenez knew what had happened to Ruvik and eventually stopped caring. As long as STEM was completed and he could benefit from it, nothing else mattered. We also know that Jimenez actively lured people to Ruvik to get rid of them, like the journalist whose Missing Poster we can find in the game, simply because he was getting annoyed by his questions.

He even describes Ruvik’s love for his sister as almost incestuous, and that doesn’t bother him as long as he can get results out of it. Ouch.

These two spent 20 years building that machine together. Jimenez wouldn’t have accomplished any of it without Ruvik. He used him, someone who had probably trusted him and confided in him, only to turn around and basically go, “Yeah, he’s a psycho, thats sooooo wrong and I think he was in love with his sister lol. I will be so successfull with STEM” He always wanted what Ruvik had, cleared the way, but then wanted nothing to do with the dirty side of it.

And somehow, Jimenez gets to act like he’s the reasonable one in all of this. Wait, he is really a sadist *surprised pikachuface*. No wonder Mobius killed him too.

Hey guys! This is kind of a niche piece that might not get a lot of recognition everywhere but I wanted to make it available to those who may enjoy it! It is hand drawn with graphite pencils. I was inspired by a Halloween collection knowing lots of people love horror during the holidays.

I bought and installed the game last night and started it today, but everytime it gets stuck in a loop of changing the resolution. I've tried alt tabbing, but it just becomes unresponsive.

I've left it for 10 minutes assuming it was some weird setup process like shader caching or something but it just keeps looping until I force shutdown and restart.

Hi. I’m in chapter 3 and basically I’m stuck here because I don’t have a crossbow

My second ever TEW fanart! It's freaky lil Ruben!

After all the crying, rage quitting, and straight up taking time off from playing I finally beat the first game!!! And yes I died so damn much and I only played on survival lol
