    Alright, I'll admit it, I picked this up expecting a cute stealth game and ended up traumatized by rats for a week, worth every second.

    ¿Traumatizado por ratas una semana y aun así lo ves sobrevalorado el puesto?

    ThéophileSamurai

    Une semaine à se méfier des rats, ça montre au moins que l'ambiance fonctionne, même si le combat reste secondaire.

  2. CosmoHunter49

    Played this during a rough winter when I barely left the couch, and that quiet dread just matched my mood perfectly

    ArcadePhoenix

    Une ambiance similaire, perso je l'ai fait cet hiver aussi, seul chez moi, mm sensation de calme oppressant tt du long.

  3. TurboBard2

    À côté de Horizon ou de The Last of Us il fait pâle figure (pour moi en tout cas).

    Alice_1995

    Non, ça allait, j'ai jamais eu ce souci avec le rythme du jeu.

    RogueRider2008

    Pâle figure, vraiment ? Est-ce qu'on compare deux jeux comparables au moins, vu qu'un des deux est un open world massif et l'autre non ?

  4. LuckyPlayer

    ça reste discret niveau technique mais l'ia des rats et les effets de masse sont hyper convaincants

    GhostPhoenix

    Les rats en masse, ça reste le vrai tour de force technique du jeu, j'ai toujours du mal à croire que ça tourne aussi bien.

    Audreanne_1999

    Yeah the rats hold up, though I wish the combat had gotten half that polish honestly.

    BossOwl1995

    tbh the rat swarms impressed me way more than any combat in horizon, my roommate literally jumped watching them spread

    barton_alaina

    this thread reminds me i played it right after a breakup lol, the rat swarms felt weirdly cathartic tbh, dont ask why

  5. LuckyByte9

    no acabé el juego, la verdad, y aun así me parece que está sobrevalorado

    CoopKnight4

    Same here, though I'll admit I remember way less than I thought I did.
