no, you don't deserve to play it.

DP is one of the best horror games ever. It has an engrossing story, magnetic characters, sublime protagonist and unrelenting horror atmosphere. It catches the "small town" setting perfectly. Most people say the jank is bad and I wouldn't blame them for saying that but it feels like it fits within the atmosphere of the game. The technical issues it has doesn’t take away from that. It's like a rough, uncut diamond. In short, it's a clunky, insane, endearing, lovable, weird work of a goofy genius known as SWERY.

I just finished the prologue on the steam version. I can't tell if some of the things are intentional or jank, such as the enemies teleporting just slightly as they walk

>such as the enemies teleporting just slightly as they walk
That's intentional.

imagine a video game but you literally cant play it on anything

I'm not sold

fucking weird but the good kind of weird

Twin Peaks: The Video Game

It's a really bad game. It isn't something for everyone just weird basement dwellers. It can be interesting in some areas but the meandering and pacing of the story is totally contrived. It's alot to do about nothing essentially. Play the evil within its a better game all around

Absolute jank and just plain questionable development decisions throughout. It's incredibly meticulous to play and none of it really makes sense. But you can tell there was an absolute fuckton of passion put into the game. The town in full of well developed and nuanced characters, the main character is chock full of off-kilter charm and fun trivia. The writing is actually pretty damn decent for a mystery game and the world is really crafted to feel real and lived in. It's an absolute fever dream that only get more insane and engaging the farther you get into it. I can't honestly recommend it to anyone but it's truly a one of a kind game.

Do you like twin peaks?

>played it through on Switch, but wanted to try and discover some of the side content
>game shits itself to death whenever I try to play via chapter select
>play the sequel hoping that it'll give off the same charm of the original and maybe not kill itself when deviating from the straight and narrow
>it's super self-aware and tries too hard to be zany
>it doesn't shit itself to death, but it's jank beyond belief and runs like crap despite being built with Switch hardware in mind
>all the side content is "do X thing Y times" garbage and the only decently fun thing is bowling

Weird leftist version of twin peaks

It is a game. Most hate it. The ones who get it love it. Sequel both filters out the remaining audience, and is a proper sequel at the end, at the same time. Swery is a genius.

Fpbp

>no oatmeal-san

>leftist version of Twin Peaks
Do you even know who made Twin peaks?

I tried to play this years ago, got maybe 5 hours in seemed look a cool game but it kept crashing after an hour or two and I had to reset PC to fix it. Could never find a fix for it so have up. Console versions are 30fps or worse so that's a no go for me.

Might try it on RPCS3 steam deck since it runs 60fps.

Based Swery appreciators

It rips off Twin Peaks but ends up being better.

I'm tempted to play Deadly Premontion 2 now that it's released on Steam. How was it?
Where the fuck is Todd Howard, bro?

>How was it?
The new gameplay mechanics were fun and I appreciate SWERY for adding so much to the simple combat of DP1, I spent hours having fun looking for drops to upgrade my skills. Aside from that, to me, the story is what matters the most in a game, and this one just has so much to tell with all its eccentric characters, relationships and twists. DP2 being a thing after the masterpiece that is DP1 is nothing short of a miracle to me and I'm thankful that SWERY brought York and Zach back for a perfect closure. DP2 has what most polished ones out there don't have, a soul and a love from it's creator.
>Where the fuck is Todd Howard, bro?
Never heard of him.
