Can't believe I spent so much time with chapter 3 when in reality the area was pretty small
Kinda wish the game had just started with that area, like RE4. But I guess they wanted to introduce stealth and hiding mechanics first.

Amazing level design by Mikami.
The entire level is also a boss battle playground
Definitely my favourite so far

Someone posted screenshot comparisons earlier in here, but yes, there's a considerable difference.

This game is pure trial & error since chapter 9. I really don't like this at all.

On the inventory screen you can switch back and forth between the two types of shotguns. Confused me too. On an xbox controller the button is x.
I'm probably upgrading stamina/matches/life first, then focus on a gun.

I'm a bit confused too. I'm not there yet so I can't say at all, but I know Chapter 9 is the chapter the demo area (mansion) is, and I can say from playing that part that was not trial and error at all.

The one hit kills by the ghost in chapter 9 and the "machines" in chapter 10

Avoid him is key, and when the blue screen appears, if you hear the rining sound getting louder, that means he is closer

You use the torch as a meele weapon on the enemy. You can't use them like matches on corpses.

wow,... you must be shitting me.
. Just when I thought this game couldn't be more disappointing, it literally turns into fucking Resident Evil 5... this must be a joke. What the fuck man

Alright, they could have improved the fire mechanic a bit, like the torch and being able to drag bodies to already burning bonfires.

Yeah, I'm not happy with this game at all. I'm really dissapointed so far. The game is not even scary. I was freaking terrified of Alien Isolation. This game is more like..."oh, I have seen this in Resident Evil 4 already"...meh. As far as story goes, I could care less about the main character and the side characters are just there to be there.
EDIT: I wish I could change the FOV. It is freaking terrible. I'm playing on PC, btw
Playing on Survival. This game is kinda hard lol. OLDSCHOOLS.
I tried that and couldn't hit. Does it only work while fighting or can you burn corpses with it?

Only fighting. I'm surprised you coudn't hit. Bare in mind that once you hit the enemy he will be burned and you'll lose your torch. You only use it once like the bottles.

Okay I need help in chapter 10.
How am I supposed to kill (?) the two big enemies? There's a gate I have to open but I don't have the time to do this.

Just started. Framerate seems meh so far.
Right after you get the keys and go through that first door, LIGHT SOURCES DON'T SHOW UP IF THEY ARE OBSCURED BY THE BLACK BARS. Like, what the fuck?
I was turning a light on and off by moving the camera to put the light in and outside the blackbars. Really shoddy.

So does the Fighting Chance pack give you any unique items that otherwise aren't in the game? Or is it just giving you more items/giving you items sooner that you otherwise would find in the game in order to make it easier?

Yeah same. Also, the Xbox 360 version looks like the GameCube version.

thanks, It's the square button on the PS4. I have upgraded my health bar 4 times and the syringe once, wasted 2 upgrades on accuracy I think.

Depends. If a body doesn't respond when you burn it, then it was dead-dead. If a body starts acting up when you burn it, then it was going to come back alive with full health after a period of time. Sometimes just moments later, sometimes a bit later. They're usually more aggressive after you've killed them once, though.

I'm only on chapter 2, but the melee sucks big time. I have a knife I can insta kill enemies with if I'm sneaking, but if I'm going straight for them I can't do shit. Terrible game design. Other than that it's pretty good so far.
Haha, I bet most people will do that.

Anyways, back off to playing with me. Leave more full impressions when I come back hours from now. And as I do, will be streaming it here, though I only mention in passing.
Framerate and things like this are turning me off. :/ Not sure if buy.

Well, damn. Thanks for the answers guys.
Can they still come back to life after I get a critical and blow their heads off though?
No. Also if you blow em up (obviously)

If you don't have the resources to kill them, be sure to get them to chase you to the other side. If I remember correctly, the door can be worked on little by little. Unless I'm thinking of a different part.

I feel there's some potential here and there, some minor moments of actual decent horror ideas, but it's brought down by pretty lame RE4 gameplay that doesn't suit the themes at all. ,,Oh boy, some boss map with big red barrels lying in each corner *yawn*''. And quite honestly, the parts that still tried to be scary in RE4 were much scarier than anything in this so far (after chapter 1). But yeah, as I've said, the RE5-esque parts take the cake so far. I can't believe what I'm playing, after people tried to sell this as a return to horror. Story is the only reason I keep playing for now though.
Now I might just re-buy the REmake next year to not be too mad about this, unless there's a major 180 incoming.

Throw a bottle in their face. Lets you beat them down with melee.
Ah. I meant I couldn't hit a corpse lol. I melee to much as it is.

Holy shit! The opening was disappointing, but once level 2 starts and you are out in the woods...I get those RESI 4 vibes. The foliage, it's dark, distant thunder, no idea where to go or what's gonna happen....THIS is want I want from these games. Thunder and woods should be mandatory Just started chapter 3...loving it so far. I'm very aware of framerate issues, but you're moving slow, so I hardly notice it and when I do, the atmosphere is so awesome that I deal with it.
