The detailed summary - with all the timecodes too! - in the description of the video is much appreciated! I'm watching the whole of it but it's really nice to know that I can choose to go back to a particular part if I need to. Thank you very much!!
At this point, it's crazy to think just how scary this game actually was. It was an absolute landmark, one of those monumental game releases that established a entire genre for the first time in what is still inspired by this. Sure, other survival horror games came out before this, but this game..this basically was the Doom of the Survival Horror genre. It changed everything.
No, I played the game at 12 years old when it was first released. it sucked balls back then and it still sucks balls. Controls were awful, deaths were cheap, puzzles were stupid and you only had one save (even the NES managed three). While the graphics were on par what could be expected from this era it ruined the scary factor when the killer birds looked like a turd after a bad day of drinking.
Remember, this game ran on a 386DX 40 mhz with 4 MB of ram. There was no video card rendering, the processor had to deal with everything at once, game engine, rendering, 3d, input, sound... And as far as I know, this is one of the very first 3d games.
I appreciate that the reading was included, I wanted to find a play through that fleshed out the story
He went pass all the interesting series of books found in the library though :/

I always remembered that stairkeeper demon when my friend played. it would freak me out that he would just stand there and watch you
Thanks for uploading this! I prefer the original music (non-cd version) a lot more. It lacks the voices though...
Yeah, the original music (Midi?) was way more scaring, specially with the piano note at the beginning!!
