PixlBit's Dust: An Elysian Tale Preview

PixlBit | Imagine if you will, that video games never went into the third dimension. Instead of the polygon arms race that began in 1995, game artists and designers simply continued to hone the craft of 2D, hand-drawn sprites. What would the video games industry look like today? With that picture in your head, imagine that character-action games like Devil May Cry and God of War still existed, but were known for their gorgeous animation and parallax scrolling as much for their over-the-top combo systems and precise control schemes. Enter Dust: An Elysian Tale, a game that seems to come from this amazing alternate gaming reality.

Outlast was probably one of the scariest games I've played. I'm glad I got that free on my PS4. I have a feeling that Silent Hills will be scarier though.

Outlast made me scream like a man girl more than once
