Wasn't this originally planned to be some asymmetrical game? Or am I confused with something else?

I appreciate the outrageousness of this, but gameplay wise I feel like I won't really be into it. It's like autopsy simulator, but instead you're torturing people? Eh...
 
Brings back memories of those Kartel videos that traumatized me during late-night deep dives

But yeah, I think this goes a bit too far
 
What's wrong with these devs? They really have some serious fucking issues in the head with that list of developed games. There is nothing fun or entertaining about torture. This should've been cancelled by the publisher as soon it was pitched in a meeting.

Gameplay is more Manhunt style. You sneak around and try to capture people or some shit. The torture is just another part of the game I believe.
 
LMAO at their developed games list

Its no worse than a Saw or Hostel movie, just a different medium. should those studios be shut down too?

These guys are total edgelords, but they actually made a pretty good RTS. Wish they would expand on that rather than do whatever the fuck this is.

Just wow. I have a feeling as messed up as this game looks, it still won't earn the controversy that Stellar Blade 2 will probably get though.

Sick shit and not in a good way. Can see some dumbass do this to their cousin in a basement and saying we were just playing mom, honest.
 
Hatred got it wrong because it was Postal but with the tongue in cheek bits removed so it was just kind of depressing

I never played Agony

These devs seem to take it a bit too seriously, stuff like the Saw and Final Destination movies are fun because they aren't just purely violence and gore
 
Outside of simply torturing people, is there anything else?

If this were an arcade game with rich, engaging mechanics and dense, satisfying gameplay, I'd be interested.

Think Manhunt for the actual gameplay part.

Makes me want to play Deception or Kagero or one of those games.

Haven't thought about Deception in ages. I remember growing up thinking it looked so cool but never got around to playing it.
 
Agony was interesting for about 45 minutes. I've got hatred but never played it. I'm not offended by this existing but I doubt I'll ever even try it.
 
It's like you get to play as The Groom from Outlast Whistleblower. Well, even the shit he was doing was possibly worse than this trailer.

Also think this game is in a very bad taste but if someone actually dose this over this game then the kid was sick from the beginning.

When did GAF turn into a bunch of pearl clutching Karens? There's a post in this thread actually advocating for a censorship board... wtf

This doesn't seem far removed from those Terrifier movies, which are super popular. I'm not the target audience (not a gorehound or into torture porn) but I'm not going to advocate for this to be banned either.

Manhunt 2 told a great psychological thriller story with diassociative identities.
Postal 2 can be largely played as a pacifist, which is great social commentary, because players often choose unnecessary violence.

Tormentor seems like violence for violence sake - doesnt have the same gravitas.
 
I played manhunt when I was 9 or 10 so nothing really shocks me any more.

This is super lame though. Who wants to torture a defenceless woman even in a video game. I can at least understand want to play as a criminal in GTA and do some unsavoury stuff, it's satirical and clever in a lot of its observations also. This is straight up torture porn a la saw movies, which are also entertainment and this should suppose be viewed in the same light.

Just freaks me out knowing that some actually weird ones will be getting off and enjoying this and hoping this was real.
 
Don't really mind it. But like their previous work, it's only there for the controversy and not to be a good/fun game to play.

Shooting someone's leg off in The Last of Us or smacking their heads gives me stronger sense of torture than how this looks.
You can do it RDR2 as well. Or some other very painful looking gut shots and dismembering.
 
So looking at the indiegogo campaign page, it's basically Manhunt 3. Bad trailer though, because it just looks like a torture simulator, when it's actually Manhunt 3 in all but name
