Ah yep, just got through the lumber mill. (Twin Peaks is my fav show ehehe) Drove around for a while trying to meet suspects and collect bones. Kind of overwhelmed right now because, like an above post, the world seems very large and sometimes I do things like drive a million miles on one road to get to a mansion and then it's closed when I get there :\ Afraid of wasting time and missing sidequests and stuff. The first time I picked this up I was told it was like twin peaks and then I played a few minutes of it and was like "This is TRYING to be like twin peaks but is stupid." I've since then radically changed my mind. Yeah, it's wacky and even shitty in various ways but in a wholly charming way. After I got into the game (away from that depressing introductory area) I started to see how it is very much like Twin Peaks in it's own super videogamey way. Really excited about this. Having a p great time B)

I feel really weird about the end:

In the end, you have control over Zach (as you know), and the entire game I have been playing AS Zach... York's imaginary friend. Well the issue arises when Zach, who is also ME more than a character in the game, is accepting and content with the events that happened. It feels like an attempt to manipulate my emotions. Like, since I am Zach I should feel alright with what happened. I don't, though. I don't feel alright about it.

Giving this a second playthrough :)

But I find myself wishing that 100%ing the game would give you a time machine that allows York to go back in time and bring justice to greenvale before anyone but anna can be harmed.

We played some mgo together if that counts :\

Honestly I don't fault a single person for not liking Deadly Premonition. I loved it, but it breaks just about every rule I have for what makes a good/bad game. His criticisms are all valid and the things I loved about the game are intensely personal and subjective.

I apologize if the post that I felt was somewhat innocent was taken as "bullying" or offended anyone. That certainly wasn't my intention.

the thing about the kitsch appeal is that everything about the game that isn't just a second-rate twin peaks is a fifth-rate something else. it's not like it's riding on the virtue of its own inexplicable brand of quirkiness heretofore unseen.


I like Deadly's "super videogamey" take on twin peaks. It's a pretty impressive piece. It doesn't take itself too seriously and yet there is a lot in it that is more interesting or sophisticated than your average video game. It's charming, and wildly flawed. But I prefer it's flaws to the flaws of a triple A that has put all it's emphasis on ease of play and good graphics but has no character or intrigue. But honestly, I couldn't say what there is in the game "to like".

It really aggravates me that swery pretends the game isn't highly twin peaks inspired, when he blatantly pays homage to it on several occasions and uses the same locations as twin peaks and has the same "solo FBI guy goes into small northern town to solve the murder of a young girl with the assistance of local police, but the case quickly turns occult/paranormal." Come on Swery, just own it. There's no real shame in it.

Sorry TXT, on the surface that seemed uncalled for and out of the blue.

I wanna play MGO sometime, but by schedule is opposite most all other humans who speak my language and I still need to learn the ropes from a friend or something


No problem man :)

You can get the infinite wrench like - right away - and that fixes the game. Then infinite flame thrower for the wall crawlers. I'm not sure I ever got the magnum.

Okay what is the pink (on the map, as opposed to red) house that when you try to go into it, you're moved back to a few feet before the door?
