It's definitely not for everyone; it's very much an old school kind of game in the vein of PS2 era survival horror like the first few Silent Hill games. The pacing is a bit slower than in most modern games, and there's a fair bit of backtracking. If that kind of thing tries your patience, it's probably not for you, but if you're cool with that, I'd say it's definitely worth checking out. It is a little unpolished, but it offers the kind of slow-burn cerebral horror and eerie atmosphere you don't see so often these days, and for me that's enough to make up for its flaws. |
This, Fatal Frame 5 is far from being a masterpiece, and it's nowhere scary in a REVII level, but cannot denny it has a very good atmosphere, and honestly, one of the best use for the Gamepad, might be the best one yet. I would rate it about 7/10. Not a bad game by any means but certainly not the pinacle of the genre.
