This may seem like a dumb question, but there are multiple endings right? I wanna watch Lirik finish the game but I'm not sure I want to spoil the ending if there is only one. Still not sure if I'm gonna buy this

Yes, it's the Butterfly Effect system reminding you of your choice and their consequence(s).
There's multiple endings for all characters in terms of their deaths, but there's one main overall ending.
Been watching the TGN playthrough and I must admit, the game looks pretty damn cool. Some interesting twists and mixes going on. Was not set on it before but I like the concept. I hope it does well enough to get sequels because the whole premise is really interesting if they push things further.

damn...was watching a guide this whole time and it didnt show the first possible death till ep 6. Oh well, guess everyone is dying in this playthrough

Do you think Amazon would let me file a refund claim since the game isn't arriving today? That way I could go to EB Games, buy a copy and actually play it on my day off (and release day, for that matter)?

Hmmm ok. Thanks.

That's exactly what happens... which is quite genius if you ask me. You need to hold the controller still while it's vibrating which means placing it down on a flat service won't work - as a table lacks the grip to hold a controller motionless under those conditions. Very clever.

You should buy the game, it's worth it and supporting original/creatively risky ideas is necessary if you want more games like this. At the very least least rent it.
It's the worst part of the game for sure.

Loving it so far except for one thing (that's in all games like this).
Context.
When offered a choice it's sometimes hard to get what they are going for IE:
So I choose the one thing I wouldn't have chosen.
But over all a great experience. And very much worth the price IMO

The Psy doc asks if I would choice loyalty over honesty.
Yes I would. He then says "So you would want loyal friends over honest friends, well how about loyalty over charity?
Again yes, I would like my friends loyal even if they arent charitable.
BUT what he meant was, I would give something to a loyal friend over someone in greater need. That's not how I took the question, especially since the previous question refered to how I want my friends to be, not how I would choose between them

I put my controller on a carpeted floor and that worked
I didn't have any sound issues, but I played through stereo TV speakers. Maybe your setup needs to be tweaked?

Just finished watching Lirik's playthrough. Not a game I'd play, but I quite enjoyed watching it.
I tried it on the stereo tv speakers and with the wireless gold headset and both don't convince me. Right now the voices are the weakest part of the game (at least the sound mixing).
Fuck, it's Wolfenstein all over again?

Yeah, carpeting would provide more shock absorption. You really shouldn't cheat that way, though.I put my controller on a carpeted floor and that worked
You don't have to be a good gamer to be a lucrative streamer who plays video games for a living. If anything, that's probably counter-productive. You just need to be entertaining and able to market yourself to your target demographic.
Four chapters in, It's everything I wanted it to be.
And I'm already wanting to see how alternate responses/choices will change those moments, no matter how small. So yeah, more play-throughs are in my future, and I rarely do that.
The jump scares, while a bit startling, aren't really getting that much of a reaction from me, so all the camera captures are hilariously stone-faced. I'd be a boring stream.

Audio mix does sound "tinny" for voices I've noticed on my headphones.

Renting it does SuperMassive no favors... If you want to continue seeing this type of game, you need to support it directly.

Sounds okay to me, but I've got a massive surround sound setup that I calibrated until I was nearly insane.
I did notice a bit of disparity as far as "depth" goes, where some voices sound too loud for the acoustics of their room compared to others. Adjusted quickly, though I imagine running stereo would make the effect worse.

Theory confirmation/debunking time... steer clear if you haven't played the game through to its conclusion. That includes the poster I'm quoting.
I'm impressed that someone was able to deduce that Josh was the Psycho and that Hannah was still alive prior to the reveal(s) in Chapter 7. Good on you for that.

Try restarting the PS4. It seems a bit glitchy to install.
Oh! Ok, will try that. That was my next move.
Edit: That did it. Installing now. Thanks!
Rented this from Redbox today. I'm definitely impressed by everything. Graphics and lighting are good, voice acting is good, and the story is genuinely interesting in a cheesy slasher way. I'm about halfway through and am excited to finish it.
Try to reboot your PS4 (not sleep mode). Mine sometimes will not recognize discs if it hasn't been totally turned off in awhile.

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.'
I already like this more than any game Quantic Dream has made. There's just something about this setup and idea that works really perfectly with the style of game. Maybe it's the Cage pretentiousness I don't like.
Oh no!
Hopefully you don't have any more issues!

whoa...all my local redboxes have copies of this and they almost never have ps4 games around my area
It's the first game where, in my opinion, the sound is a bit off in stereo. The options are also very limited, no way to change it to 5.1, stereo or headphones. Maybe the default output is 5.1 and everything overlaps in stereo.

Mine started with PS4 games with GOW3 Remastered.

Yeah, that'd be a simple explanation. Kind of disappointing, really, considering most people probably aren't utilizing surround sound. I'd tinker around with other sound settings, but I'd honestly rather beat the game first before replaying stuff for quality checks.
What does the new sound profile do when used? I have the gold headphones, but I rarely use them.

anyone playing this with a ps camera?

Yeah definitely, I noticed it right away. I applied band-aid by turning all other sounds except voice down so it's a bit more in balance, but it's still not perfect.

How do I know if the DLC Chapter is installed?
Sound profiles change some equalizer settings. nothing special.

Is it just me or this is the best game of its kind I played so far? Way more fun than the rest of them (and I played most of them, from Walking Dead, Wolf Among Us, Tales of Borderlands and Game of Thrones to Life is Strange, King's Quest, D4, Beyond and Heavy Rain).
The presentation is just top-notch (the fucking graphics! Can't believe they actually got the nails done right for once!), the voice-work is stellar and believable (although of course campy and predictable but that's part of the charm).
I am really surprised at how much I am liking this so far. I was bitching about the price since the preorder went up, but now I feel it was worth it

Anyway, after watching a two hour let's play video, I impulse bought this one last night. I'm gonna play through it this weekend, it looks like the type of game my wife would be interested in seeing me play through.
