Still Wakes the Deep

As far as "walking simulators" go, this is among the best ones I've played. The story is great, and so are the characters, so it has nailed the most important part there already. The oil rig herself is a character in and of herself. How she screeches and twists throughout the game, it almost feels like she's in constant agony, which adds to the atmosphere quite a bit. And of course, the protagonist's wellbeing rests upon her wellbeing. So it's not just symbolic either. I personally can't take the Scottish accent seriously. It just makes me chuckle every time I hear it. Buuuuuuuuuut, the game managed to make me forget that by the mid-point where the stakes are at their highest and numerous tragedies occur naturally and with a lot of grace. It's certainly a tearjerker of a game I must say. Gameplay-wise, there's a few mandatory instant gameover stealth sections, which I could do without. But they do spice up the game somewhat, and aren't too numerous for me to complain about. The rest of it is the standard fare of QTEs, walking around; and even some light parkour. Graphically, the game struggles to perform, it being a very poorly optimized UE5 game. Man, seriously, developers, stop using that poor excuse for an engine. It just sucks a$$. The graphics is okay all things considered, but it has no business having stutters on the machine that runs Silent Hill 2 Remake in 4K at triple digit FPS. And that one was an UE5 disaster too, by the way... Also, just like in Silent Hill 2 Remake, I've noticed that the flashlight seems to behave very weirdly. It doesn't seem to illuminate things at all sometimes, especially while crouching in enclosed spaces to avoid enemies. This is really annoying, because the game's very dark. Just like a lot of SH2 Remake were. Anyway, it's definitely worth it on sale, as it's well written, with plenty of tense and emotional moments. The gameplay certainly adds to the former, which is a step above your average "walking simulator".

Extremely boring, banal and repetitive. The initial balance makes it look promising: characters seem to have a certain edge, and the fact you can inspect their cabins gives the impression that this will indeed be "The Thing" on an oil rig, where you don't know who to trust, but it turns out it's just one of those "go from point A to point B with some spooky stuff in between". What a let down.

我真服了，这优化简直稀烂，烂就算了勉强能玩，到后面碰到闪退BUG了，现在一进游戏开始播片就直接闪退，玩个蛋！ [hr][/hr] 通关后二编 总的来说[b]不推荐 [/b]！但是氛围和叙事是挺克苏鲁的味儿的，全程没什么特别的交互，建议直接云 改成DX11之后就不闪退了，但是会卡顿，这个游戏也根本没有做模型LOD，几何细节降低简直就是直接暴力给高模减面.....我这个配置应该算是中等偏上的了吧，玩这个卡到怀疑人生所以去降画质发现的这个情况...优化给到拉中拉 游戏整体叙事和氛围还算不错，但是游戏性很低，就是走路模拟，基本没什么交互，加上优化差还有BUG，也遇到过几次到剧情点了门没开，重新读档就好了的情况，整体游玩体验非常一般。

等我换8090和1T内存再给好评吧

电影级体验 但是怪物ai略显低能算不上恐怖
