It’s not even October yet, and we’re already graced with yet another adventure from the wizards of horror over at Supermassive Games. Only, instead of another one of their Dark Pictures Anthology games, they’ve produced an experience on the scale of the work that first put them on the map: Until Dawn.
And of course, I couldn’t play one of these without inviting my good buddy Acharky to join me for the adventure. The Dark Duo rises once more.
I am tired of licensed music getting in the way of me and my stream fun. Both Twitch and YouTube hit me with different copyright violations over the music used in the opening segment. Playing this game every time I want to stream something with licensed music just isn’t fun. It never will be.
Having said that, I’m surprised how long this introduction section has been, but that might be because I’ve grown used to the abridged pacing that we experience with The Dark Pictures Anthology games, the tighter and more focused experiences that they are. I’m not entirely sure that the extra length does any favors for games like this, but we only just began and I’m open to being wrong.
I do appreciate some of the new options we’re given in the accessibility menu, like the ability to automatically pass QTEs. It gives me more freedom to enjoy the game by focusing on the aspects I enjoy, like the decision-making and uncovering the clues/evidence to piece together the story behind the monsters we’re certainly about to face.
We’re in for a long night.
