Ugh one more hour before I can pick this up.
I may go crazy and murder some college kids in the woods if time doesn't go faster!

Is the DLC necessary or does it have nothing to do with the story at hand?
Trying to figure out if it's been carved out of the main narrative or what.

All advertising says it takes place at a different time than the plot, so I think the later.
I think it is a epilogue elaborating more between character connections.
I'm starting to regret my decision to only play this at night.
It was just some character development. I think it was cut out of the main game as I had no idea it was the DLC until after I had played through it.

So I've got a question. From what I've seen of this, in the majority of the chapters at least, it seems like you can't actually kill many (any?) of the cast until late in the game? Is this the case or have I just been watching a Let's Play with a very good player who managed to keep people alive?

What bit is the DLC? I couldn't fire it out. Is it anything to do with Matt?
You can kill 1 or 2 earlier in the game.
It feels pretty cut out, I'm surprised it is DLC. It affected my view on several of the characters at least.
That doesn't sound right.

Wait, seriously?
Them falling down the cliff and dying, after the prank?
edit: after a bit more googling I think it's the scene where
Matt and Emily get attacked by the deer

Well my local Postal Offices are closed by now so I guess I'm getting this tomorrow (hopefully).
It is though. There's a reason the tutorials for things like right analog to control the camera play during that and the first chapter, it's for people who don't have the DLC.
Either that or the game thinks people need 2 tutorials on movement and camera control within 20 minutes. Which would be hilarious.

I got that vibe from reading the description.
If so, PlayStation Youtube spoiled it by saying if you don't give Matt the flare gun he dies.

wait, I thought the dlc was
when Matt and Emily have to go back for the luggage they left

Relax people, the prologue is not the dlc. The dlc is a little bit of extra character building with Matt and Emily in the beginning of the game. You wouldn't notice it's DLC because it's part of the main game so it fully blends into the rest of the chapter.
^ it's this

Anyone on the fence for the 59.99 price tag: if you live near a red box kiosk the game is featured -quick search showed 8 within 3 miles of me that have the game.

Yep it does include two new clues thougj but are not required to get the trophy. I know cause I had them all before I used my code for it.
Given how the story plays out that makes no sense. Double tutorials makes more sense than
referencing an event in the main game that only occurs during the pre-order chapter.
The pre-order bonus is definitely between Matt & Emily and is not the
deer attack
a five minute jaunt that Matt & Emily take to retrieve her bag; there are zero story advancements in this section other than interpersonal bullshit

And then the LORD David Bowie saith to his Son, Jonny Depp: 'Go, and spread my image amongst the cosmos. For every living thing is in anguish and only the LIGHT shall give them reprieve.'
Is anyone else trying for all kills on their first run? Cause I know I'll lose people the first try, or does it take just as much effort to kill them all as saving them all?
Really impressed by the motion capture here. Performances are great across the board. Art direction is off the charts. There is some frame judder but it's not that big a deal and the framerate itself is so much better than any other game of its type - as it should be given the power of the PS4. The game feels very polished and it's obvious a lot of love and care went into this project.
My only demerit would be that I expected a bit more in terms of the relationships between the characters, but I guess they were limited by the basic concept.

It almost looks like they used the tech for facial animation from LA Noire, but I don't think they will ever use something that cost-inefficient again. Guess it's just really good face mocap.
Yup that's my plan for this weekend! $3 a day.
I dunno, I feel like it's over the top. There's something off about all of the faces. It's better than the average game but they seem to be over exerting their faces or something.
Or maybe it's just Peter Stormare, who is not a particularly subtle actor.
That's normal for him on new big releases.

People have advised you to reset your controller, but obviously once everything is working for you, you have to have the controller still before you place it down. That movement would fail the "Don't Move" scenario.
The "Don't Move" scenarios are the same for both control schemes. The only difference is with the motion controls, your decisions such as run or hide are made by moving the controller left or right instead of moving the right stick left or right.
If you want to know the other scenarios for this, let me know.
Nope, only one. If you are going for all the collectibles and have most of them after your first playthrough, you should back your save up and reload it to do Episode select after you're done playing for different death scenarios because if you start a new game it wipes all your collectibles.
It ebbs and flows but every Episode from here on out has action at some point.
$59.99 (lol).
Yes
I hate the horror genre and I loved the game so you should be able to stomach it. Just hide your eyes at certain parts like I did.
There's none.
Got my copy! But EB Games didn't give me the DLC Bonus Chapter
Can I get it on PSN?
Also, the inside case is blank. Not even an ad for another game.
I miss manuals.
It's not available on PSN right now, and I know, that was funny to see.
Want some info on this theory?
You might. Best Buy usually gives out preorder codes on release date.
I played without it and felt like I didn't connect to Matt and Emily as much early on in the game because of it. They get more screen time later on, but I would recommend playing it if you can.
Haha well played!
To confirm, the DLC is the section where Matt and Emily retrieve her bag.
Can you PM me an image/description of the clues? I don't have my game anymore and am curious to read them.
It definitely takes some effort to kill them, and I'll say no more.

I'm liking the title. Planning on picking this up soon and playing late at night with some friends.

My copy got dispatched this morning so I should have it tomorrow. I'm really looking forward to playing it
Play ASAP, it's still plenty scary during the day.
You could try going to Best Buy and see if they still have codes in their system. They'll email you one or it'll print on the receipt, and then you can just return the game.
There's 9 behind-the-scenes videos and one of them shows the systems they used. It's really cool.
You should be able to replay any previously completed Episode, but I never tried that until I was done with the game.
Two full (all live/all die) plus Episode select at the end of the game for one particular death trophy. Collectibles need to be earned in one sitting or via Episode select. If you choose a New game, they're wiped.

Does this game have Stream Participation? or is there a plan for it to have stream participation?
Game is quite meta:
Holy crossover Batman.
I totally thought that was going to be in the game after the PSX demo last year, but was surprised to hear nothing of it recently.
Josh stops taking his meds. Bad shit happens. Elliot (Mr. Robot) stops taking his meds. bad shit happens.

ep4 spoilers...is it possible to save
Jessica? After she died, it showed a little clip of a choice I made earlier, was that a mistake I made?
PSN wouldnt let me pre-order this. I tried several times and each time i got a mail claiming payment failure. Even though i bought a couple of other games afterwards that went smoothly. I even tried removing and re-entering my paypal info. I have the account set to automatically add funds to my wallet on pre-orders as well.
The fourth time it let me download it and i thought it was ok. But when midnight hit it was still locked and it sent me to the store to re-buy it. But, seeing as only the pre-order is there you cant actually buy it anymore.
Weird stuff. But i guess in the future ill go to my account and add funds to my wallet manualy before pre-ordering anything.
