Awesome, can't wait to watch a boring, first person view of a person walking around and talking about boring ass shit! /s (in case it wasn't obvious)

They need to add a murderer or some sort of mystery to add the tension the game had but not have a half ass conclusion to it all. I really enjoyed the game's characters and hopefully they're able to capture the relationship between them perfectly.

Yeah I mean I'm all for staying as true to the source material as you can possibly can but imagine watching a 1 hour and 45 minute film only to see it's just his paranoia and everything is easily explained as a big misunderstanding. "Oh yeah there's no killer, the two girls were found, there's no Government secret camp conspiracy and the guy stalking the place is just a lost soul who's son died and couldn't bring himself to embrace the outside world again". It would be a big slap to the audience.

I would probably have done a TV show on it to be honest. Include the killer, expand of the dad loosing his son, add more missing people then link them all to the shadowy Government camp fenced off from the reserve. I think it would make a very good Twin Peaks like series. Not to mention you'd have to have Henry and Delilah meet at least half way through.

I enjoyed the game and I have no problems with how the story played out. However I don't believe that I can be directly translated into a movie. It worked as a game but as a movie I can't see it.

Been wanting to play Texas Chainsaw Massacre.

Elda246d ago

2 people downvoting you because you want to play SOS & TTCM is beyond stupid, lol.

Elda246d ago

The immature mentality & behavior of some folks here on N4G is not surprising. I pay it dust.

MEGANE246d ago

I don’t get it, this is why you can’t have a discussion in here, I get there is more PS5 fans here including my self but downvoting everything Xbox is counterproductive.

JeffGUNZ245d ago

If you never played firewatch, do yourself a favor and play it. It's not very long but it's a fantastic gaming experience.

Traecy246d ago

I'll see what TTCM is giving.

Ninver246d ago

Firewatch? It's been out since the birth of christ. Better late than never I guess.

I loved A Short Hike, and want Firewatch.

Nacho_Z482d ago

Firewatch is one of my favourite games. It was ages ago that I played it but I still think about it, one of those that sticks with you.

What Remains of Edith Finch is brilliant. I would also add Inside to this list.

Firewatch VR Mod Is Now Complete

From UploadVR: "Perhaps one of the most demanded VR mods out there, Firewatch VR, is now complete.

Developer Raicuparta recently moved their mod, named Two Forks VR, to a 1.0 release. This update doesn’t actually add much to the mod over the past release, but the developer says the mod is now in “maintenance mode”, essentially meaning it will just be updated to keep working with any possible future updates to Firewatch itself.

Raicuparta previously made an excellent VR mod for Outer Wilds, and now Two Forks VR features a lot of advanced VR mod features like snap turning and more. If you want to try the mod for yourself you’ll need to subscribe to Raicuparta’s Patreon campaign."

Really cool. Something the main developers should have considered when VR was really getting hot. Maybe next round with new headsets coming.

The more interesting thing is that Modders are, in a way, proving what Sony wants to do with some VR games being hybrids besides the ground up developed games. Make the necessary tweaks and modifications and boom. VR game.

Games like RE7, Borderlands, Skyrim, Doom, Dirt Rally, etc have made the case. Some very close like Hitman 3. It just needed more tweaking. Just need more of the best and at a higher quality. Developers win. Gamers win either way in or out of VR.

This one's a good fit for VR, and not too demanding <3
