Do you know what, I used to hate hobnobs and now I like them. Weird how opinions can change. I prefer plain Hob Nobs, the chocolate ones are shit! I honestly don’t understand the love for them, I love chocolate digestives but NOT choc Hob Nobs. |

Girlfriend asked what I did during my lunch break.
I explained how I read 5 pages online of 2 people arguing about Silent Hill 2 remake , one loves it , the other doesn’t like it but likes the puddles . This followed by talk of tugging each other off and something about biscuits !
She’s leaving me

I understand. We should have started with the biscuits earlier.

I'll fight you over how I think Maryland cookies don't taste that great anymore. Oreos are shit too. Taste of nothing. Yes but the mint ones are fucking amazing, and the current limited edition gingerbread ones are also delicious. |

Oreos are vegan so they really piss off anti woke people

Well, at the risk of marginalising biscuits: this game is fucking excellent. I finished work late and was tired so thought I probably wouldn't play. I did decide to check out the opening 5 minutes. Here I am 90 minutes later in Wood Side Apartments.
The best thing about the experience - apart from the fact it's an excellent game in the first instance - is that nothing so far feels overly familiar; it feels totally fresh in terms of exploration and encounters. I don't know if that's my poor memory - I played through 3 or 4 times but 20+ years ago - or testament to how they've approached it.
It looks gorgeous, the soundtrack (and its absence) is great, it's creepy as fuck and completely engaging.
In the interests of balance...I suppose interacting with objects is slightly more fiddly than it needs to be? This is a minor annoyance for the most part.
As I said, fucking excellent. I don't want to stop playing. Curse work in the morning!

Thought I'd buried all copies of this. Disappointed some seem to have made it out into the wild

I may or may had not had a moment just then where I ordered it on my ever struggling credit card.

This is too tense. These damn legs. I mean they’re just legs. Why are they so creepy.

Have to say I agree with wunty on this. I've not played for long but by jove, they've nailed that constant pant shitting feeling for sure.

I think I'm nearly done with Blue Creek Apts and I won't be sorry. Constantly on edge throughout, every encounter a panicked flail in the dark. At one point something whispered loudly in my ear* which resulted in me just putting the controller down and scrolling on my phone for a couple of minutes until I could continue. They've either increased the fear factor of this by quite some extent, or I'm a bigger wuss than ever these days.
Probably both, with more emphasis on the latter. It's those legs. The lying figures I can cope with but it's the damn mannequins that run around just at the edge of your flashlight and then just hide somewhere, waiting for you.
* No, it wasn't my wife / son / dog

I managed a whole two minutes last night. I don't know whether to have the filter on or off.

Started my playthrough at 5:30 this morning (only want to play when it is dark outside, so last thing at night/first thing in the morning will be the way I go), played for about 90 odd mins, just arriving at the Woodside apartments before I saved. Very impressed so far, as a huge fan (as a lot of us are, especially the first 3 games) of the series I am very happy.

I'm used to it now and my next playthrough I'll probably have it disabled just to change things up. I'm still not a huge fan of the vignette but I love the muted colour, the film grain and the weird TV effects. |
