I have a save file that shows I finished the game. In 2021. Yep, don't remember doing that at all I'm fine everything's fine. Just fine.

unlabelledView post →3. The Evil Within 2 I've got a lot of love for the Evil Within games, the first game wasn't amazing, but it was one of the first modern Survival Horror games I really loved since the PS1 era. The second was a big improvement, and will always stick with me.
unlabelledView post →The Evil Within ended up being a game I sorta managed to get through, with some serious effort, I still kept getting anxiety spikes with it, but I played with an extremely detailed walkthrough and could only manage it for short 20 minute or so sessions at a time before it got so bad I had to stop.
unlabelledView post →How is it possible that The Evil Within has aged so flawlessly. Unbelievably excellent art direction in this game. Maybe some of horror’s best?
unlabelledView post →I sketched this during a VC a couple nights ago. I was playing The Evil Within and I felt compelled to draw both Wile E and Sylvester as Sebastian and Joseph from the first game hehe #LooneyTunes
unlabelledView post →Tonight at 8:30PM EST is The Evil Within, a game about hanging out with your coworkers inside of a crazy machine. It's also a game about watching Shinji Mikami try to resist making a normal videogame as he's slowly fed into the 2014 AAA meatgrinder.

We talked about F.E.A.R., Lost in Vivo, The Evil Within, how horrorvisuals came to be, and why Doom 3 is the perfect survival horror game. 😈

unlabelledView post →Something The Sinking City 2 reminded me of a little, was The Evil Within 2. That game had a sort of mini open-world, a town location you traversed and visited more linear sections, and this does something similar; We have a little boat with which we explore and travel to and from set locations.

unlabelledView post →This game is so special to my heart - it's one of my first "serious" solo speedruns. I've speedran this game for 6+ years on and off, and it's one of the games I genuinely enjoy speedrunning at any point. And after 5+ years of submitting this, The Evil Within 2 will be at SGDQ26 <3

unlabelledView post →30 Days of Video Games Challenge. Day 23: First Pre-Order Ghostwire Tokyo Another underrated great game created by Tango Gameworks. The same company that made The Evil Within games and Hi-Fi Rush. Love every single moment while playing this one. 🔥
unlabelledView post →Now do Dishonored, Hi-fi Rush, The Evil Within, and Ghostwire: Tokyo. Not every game succeeds. Every studio fails sometimes. Spencer and the other neckties (and you, I guess) think they can thin the deck to only bangers and that's just not how art works.
unlabelledView post →Random Game of the Day Day 175 - The Evil Within A fantastic Resident Evil style game. It really scratched that itch back when RE were lacking in appeal for the most part. I still need to play the sequel
unlabelledView post →It's an incredible game that I loved a lot and I was baffled when every one of those "Microsoft is dissolving Tango Gameworks" articles would mention The Evil Within and Hi-Fi Rush without a word about Ghostwire.
unlabelledView post →The Evil Within 2! One GREAT horror game!
unlabelledView post →Its a wrap just finished The Evil Within 2!! Overall i really enjoyed both the first game nailed the brutal horror vibe, but the sequel completely leveled up the story, exploration, and gameplay mechanics. Sebastian’s journey through Union made every moment count. My rating 9/10! 🎮🔥
unlabelledView post →The Evil Within it frustrates me so much when people say to skip the first game and to play the sequel instead... NO the first game is fucking awesome play that game please I don't care if it doesn't feel exactly like RE4, feeling sluggish to move and difficult to fire your weapons is good I love it
unlabelledView post →"[Shinji Mikami, director of The Evil Within] stated that it will be a 'true' survival horror game, 'one in which the player confronts and overcomes fear' because he was disappointed by recent survival horror games becoming action horror games."
unlabelledView post →So what's everyone's thoughts on The Evil Within now that its been so long? I think it's pretty neat but definitely plagued by a lot of strange 7th gen-ish game design

unlabelledView post →do I replay The Evil Within, a much more inferior game to its sequel, just so I can write about the accidental homoeroticism of Shinji Mikami's final game?

unlabelledView post →Dino Crisis exists in this nebulous space among my favourites, where I love more the untapped potential of it than what we had in of itself. Don't get me wrong, it's still a great game. A great Resident Evil game. The Evil Within series, by contrast, for all they share the post-RE4 template...
unlabelledView post →Beat Hi-Fi Rush last night and yeah this game deserves more praise! It is a severely underrated game that is made by the people behind The Evil Within! The music is phenomenal, the character development is great, and the overall story and gameplay is awesome! Please go support Tango Gameworks!
