Playing it felt like being a kid again, scared stiff, though the controls remind me it's from another era.

Pareil, ce mélange peur et nostalgie, difficile à recréer aujourd'hui

En mi época todos hablábamos de ese juego en el patio, aunque ahora que lo pienso, dudo que la mitad lo hubiera terminado realmente, y sinceramente creo que se sobrevalora ese recuerdo colectivo.

People act like nostalgia invalidates the game itself, it does not, the atmosphere still works and the design choices were deliberate not lazy

Ma cour d'école aussi en parlait sans fin, j'y ai rejoué seul plus tard, moins impressionné.

Les couloirs, la musique, cette tension permanente... peu de jeux d'horreur arrivent encore à ce niveau selon moi.
SilentLegend
The tension fades once you memorize the layouts though, doesn't it hold up any better on a second run for you?

Il mérite bien plus. Vous avez déjà eu aussi peur d'une porte ?
Pixel_Poirier
Une porte qui fait peur, sérieusement ? Moi c'est le premier zombie du couloir qui m'a marqué à vie, personne d'autre ?

une porte qui fait peur, vraiment ? moi j'ai surtout eu peur de m'ennuyer devant l'inventaire
NeonDragon
That one door got me too honestly, I remember gripping the controller way too hard, though I'll admit the puzzles around it haven't aged the same way the atmosphere has.
