"Huge"

I mean, there's ten coming games in the list I linked to, with more on the way. It IS possible that as I'm used to not seeing many new fixed camera games around, I COULD be a bit overexcited here...! =D

Is the whole list survival horror?..Meh

I didn't know Fear Effect 2 was getting a modern release, nice.

 

[Black_Stride]

Weekend-GAF truly is in full swing

I bet OP's dates also get disappointed at the promise of something huge.

 

[CrimsonTide]

Def love me some fixed camera survival horror

Reasonable response. If you have a look at our Coming Attractions list, you'll find a couple non-survival horror, but otherwise it's probably worth taking a browse through our group list and other lists, especially the Story Focused list. Hope you find what you're looking for!

Cool I guess.

Every time. I make it a point of pride. Just a point.

Clicked on your link hoping to find team of people clad in smoking jackets and horse racing attire all sitting in a 1800's style British drawing room debating over the very necessary topic of Fixed Camera Games. Pipes and pipe smoke fill the room, people are all stood around the wall, some pointing angrily at various game titles. There is even a headline about a dueling incident between to members who were fighting over the status of Eternal Darkness.

I will let you imagine how I felt when the steam group page opened.

But thank you for the list none the less.

Oh. Jeez. Sorry to disappoint. Not sure we can manage that with the current Steam Community, but I'll see if we can conjure up something like that in the future. Otherwise, you are more than welcome. =)

The Florist looks very good.

I wish they remade DMC 1 with the fixed cameras. When well done, it helps in creating a great atmosphere.

Agreed on both counts.

Added The Florist to my wishlist. Looks great.

you are a gentleman AND a scholar (of fixed camera games)

Yeah, same. I'm of the opinion that fixed multicam has a lot of interesting possibilities which are currently unexplored... though we're starting to see games now that are doing some interesting experiments. Like, there's a game with a demo called The Time I Have Left...

It's an interesting exploration / thriller / JRPG game, but when I was paying attention in the game, I noticed that they were very deliberately ensuring that they maintained viewer planarity unless they had a very formal space-change (eg. opening and passing through a closed door) - for comparison, Resident Evil 1 HD potentially breaks planarity about 6 times in the first three minutes (approx). The Time I Have Left guys are using camera-relative controls, which a lot of people find disconcerting when the camera angle changes in fixed camera games... but because the camera angle in The Time I Have Left stays fairly consistent (for Y vertical), that discombobulation never has a chance to happen. Well worth a look, if that sounds interesting.

The Florist looks amazing. Wishlisted.
