Couldnt see a thread so i will start one myself.
Must warn though im crap at giving impressions and reviews (good engish was never my thing.)
Having been a fan of the previous 2 games and loving playing them in the dark at 1am ish i was eager to see what this one was like, atmosphere wise im on double pants alert, this is gonna be a cool ride.
Having read a wee bit about the story on a few sites it gives me a good impression of what it is im playing as its ALL in japanese, for the moment i seem to know whats going on just dont ask me what she said.
In typical Fatal Frame stylee its all starts with loss, you play as Rei Kurosawa a photographer who has just recently lost her fiancee in a tragic car accident, after this event she is given a job to photograph a legendary haunted mansion, whislt inside the mansion with your friend and assistant Miku Hinasaki who is VERY familar (she was the heroine of the first Fatal Frame game.) Rei takes a picture and notices her fiancee standing there, she decides to follow the scary ghost of her fiancee NOOOOO, after this you are lead away by him into Black & White territory scary stuff, at this point you know some bad **** will appear soon and it does, i didnt like it and i know everyone else will jump, i wont spoil it though but it involves a mysterious tattoo which seems to be magically appearing on Rei's skin.
After these events you seem to be plagued with flashbacks of the night of the accident and everynight when you goto sleep you are drawn back to the haunted mansion for more scares and progression of the story, with every day Rei awakens she is being covered in more of this mysterious tattoo, what does it all mean i dont know
BUT i am enjoying the experience of playing the game at the moment and STILL being scared by it.
Gameplay wise some of the locations are similar if not the same as the ones from Fatal Frame 1 and 2 almost as if they have been merged.
The camera system is still aim and charge, you still have to aim within the circle to charge the Fatal Frame, it also still is upgradable with points.
You still get points for snapping ghost and killing them, also extra points for snapping the ghost when they are doing a specific scenarios like walking up stairs or chanting in a room, you always have to be very quick though to get those extra points. You also now have a combo system where you can chain together multiple attacks on multiple enemies and also multiple hits on one ghost, these attacks also multiply your total points.
The controls for walking are still annoying though, at times Rei seems to look like she is walking with her legs tied together, doesnt get any better when she slowly jogs along too, but the pace is suited to the game.
At the moment im 2 hours in and liking it, apparently you also get to play as 2 other characters Miku and Kei, with all 3 characters being able to use special abilities to fight those pesky ghosts.
Will update with more, once im through it more.
Anyone else got it at all? Or am i gonna be alone with it.....im scared.
