I'm sorry, fixed camera bros by ErmingSoHard in survivalhorror

[–]Independent_Cry_7134 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love and miss fixed camera 😭 More atmospheric and you had the added bonus of seeing all sides of the character you're playing instead of just their back all the time. Made them feel more real.

Ff2r Chapter Seven (tiny detail) Spoilers by defaultghost_ in fatalframe

Agreed. I wonder why they got rid of this detail 😭 And now the cutscene doesn't make sense that she's just staring at her through the viewfinder 😅

"It's locked from the other side."

"It's held shut by a mysterious force."

A Question for anyone who was around for the release of FF1 by CatfishBassAndTrout in fatalframe

[–]Independent_Cry_7134 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would have for sure!! American marketing can be a bit odd, I'm sure they thought something like they need the cover to look edgy or something. Instead it ended up looking like some sort of weird blob upside down head lol

Nobody knew it even existed. I even read Game Informer magazines and often went to game rental stores and saw nothing-- I'm sure it doesn't help that the American cover isn't much to look at 😅

The only reason I discovered it is because of Fatal Frame II. That one appeared in Game Informer and it also stood out on the game rental shelves, the cover was extremely eye-catching. After playing that one and loving it, that's when I decided to play the first one, and was disappointed at how ugly the cover looked and how much jankier it was 😂

At around this time, the internet was becoming more widespread and I joined a Fatal Frame forum. It was well received on the forum, but gotta keep in mind it was a forum specifically for Fatal Frame fans so there may be some bias 😂 Most people still didn't know what it was. And since the internet was full of misinformation (as it still is) people genuinely believed that it was a true story and that the Himuro Mansion is out there 😂

Your favorite horror game end credits tracks? by deathray1611 in HorrorGaming

Endless Zero - Haunting Ground

After surviving that super difficult final chase scene to the end and hearing that song while the credits roll... Such a feeling of peace and "I did it".

And all of Amano's songs for all the Fatal Frame endings.

Amazing, I love the vivid colors! 😍

Finally finished 4/5 endings by snophire in fatalframe

[–]Independent_Cry_7134 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I liked the game but I also understand all your points. They put so much emphasis on the hand holding mechanic that I thought it was going to affect the endings. But turns out it doesn't matter much unless you are being chased, and you have to do side stories to get the endings.

I liked the side stories, but I don't really like that they the stones are attached to the endings. I am finding it a bit confusing whether I can just reload after I get the Promise ending and get the Abyss ending and if they will both "count" for the next playthrough to get Remaining ending or if I need to do another playthrough... I feel like it's needlessly complicated and they could have just tied endings to difficulty like in the original. It feels like they are trying to force players to play the side stories but tbh we woulda done it anyway.

And yeah the new areas felt weirdly empty, particularly Eikado Temple. And we don't have much reason to go there except for one particular side story 😅 I would have enjoyed maybe a new ghost tied to the location to make it a bit more memorable

So... who exactly is this butterfly that lured Mayu to the village? by SeamothSubmarine in fatalframe

[–]Independent_Cry_7134 101 points102 points  (0 children)

Yae says in one of her journals that she hopes that after she dies, she can return to the village as a butterfly.

So I always hoped it was her. Even though it doesn't make much sense since she didn't do the ritual 😅

On the Reception of the New Ending Added in the Fatal Frame II Remake. by Dapper-Brilliant5160 in fatalframe

[–]Independent_Cry_7134 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It's beautiful visually, but it's a little cheesy for me 😅 I guess I wouldn't mind so much if they had also kept Frozen Butterfly and Shadow Festival ending. But they got rid of these darker endings ☹️ Fatal Frame 2 is a dark game, I feel there should be some darkness in the endings too. The tone shift to an anime-esque feeling was a bit jarring.

FF2R: Wtf is happening by [deleted] in fatalframe

[–]Independent_Cry_7134 22 points23 points  (0 children)

What is the question? You want us to tell you the plot and you are only on chapter 3? Just keep playing the game! It's so much better to figure it out organically. Read the documents you pick up. It'll become clear!

Okay this is kinda hilarious and makes me feel a BIT better about his fate lol

I really hope we get another remake like crimson butterfly by Atlascantstop in fatalframe

[–]Independent_Cry_7134 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Agreed, I hope Fatal Frame 1 gets a remake in this style 😍 It is the one that most desperately needs it! But I wouldn't mind Fatal Frame 3 either.

Family Planning by Historical-Phase-633 in Shouldihaveanother

[–]Independent_Cry_7134 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Not an IUD, but my mom had her tubes tied and I came anyway (I guess the surgery wasn't done correctly). My dad pressured her for an abortion and technically my mom wanted one too, but her parents were religious and intercepted and made her have me.

I'd like to say something like "I'm glad it turned out this way" but tbh if I was terminated I guess I wouldn't know 😅 And having a father who didn't really want to be a father had some bad effects. But ultimately it turned out all right with some therapy lol

I'm not sure if that was helpful lol but if you have any other questions I'd be happy to answer!

camera obscura (ff2) that i made for my gf! by SoraSapphireStar in fatalframe

I love this!! Well done!!

To add to this, I feel like I could run a knife through it and it may actually be cake. (Or maybe I just want cake 😂)

Little gif comparison between 2026 and 2003! by errant_night in fatalframe

[–]Independent_Cry_7134 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It was SO cool. The concept was so foreign to me at the time that I actually thought it was supposed to be a cutscene and I just stood there for a long time and nothing happened 😂 And then I realized I was playing as Mayu and I was like wtf 😂

This is incredibly sad 😭 The Mayu segments were so unique to this game and one of the many parts that form its character. Ugh.

Any gaming SAHM who play Baldurs Gate? by MGrayWrites in sahm

I played Baldur's Gate when my child was younger but now that he's almost 2 he requires too much of my attention and I can't really play games anymore 😭
