Oh man, poor zoomers.Hahaha. I know. Those pop culture info graphics I see sometimes have kinda a sliding scale to give you an idea of where you land. Like I definitely have different tastes that someone born even 5 years apart.

Yeah, that's thick with oppressive tension - very Silent Hill-esque, albeit first person. Definitely wish-listed. I hope the full release lives up to the vibe and atmosphere in the trailer.

It's the *lack* of detail. The hazy, shimmering, dream-like qualities are easier to express without the fidelity.

Come For the retro horror, stay for the 40 year olds arguing like 16 year olds. It is a life we live, NeoGAF. Not a great life, and not a terrible life. But a life.

It looks superb. I’m so happy that old limitations are being retooled as intentional style. This kind of thing feels like a big leap forward for games being used for self expression.

The World has entered The Latter Age Of The Dharma. Society is crumbling. War has spread throughout the country. Disease and famine have killed thousands, and demons walk the very earth itself. You are an Ashigaru, a footsoldier in the service of Lord Takeda Nobumitsu. Deceived by a powerful demon king, your lord led his army into an ambush. All perished except for you. Against your wishes your lord sacrificed his life to aid your escape from the battle. You have made a vow to track down the demon who betrayed your lord and end it's life. You take what could possibly be your final breaths on this mortal plane, and prepare yourself to enter… The Labyrinth Of the Demon King
Coming to PC and consoles in 2023.
You son of a bitch, I am in!

It's a slow game for sure. The default walk speed feels like slow-motion, running feels like normal walking speed. But it's all about atmosphere. I love the starting areas, great mix of creepy vibes and soothing music.
There's something about the combat that doesn't really click with me yet, I'm not sure what it is. The movements are so slow and you need so much time to counter/parry.
First person melee combat is always super difficult to pull off.

The aesthetic and movement (and sound) of this game legitimately gives me chills.
The atmosphere feels like it was inspired by Silent Hill. (Edit: Searched the thread through google and just noticed the title lol)

Guess I got my Kingsfield at home to play. Heard good things about this one, so I'm happy.
