    Strobe's GameLog for ObsCure (PC)

    Wednesday 11 May, 2005

    Started playing this game after a friend of mine recommended it,
    as he said "its a new horror game".

    The game itself seems kinda easy right now
    (maybe because im running it at "easy level" right now)
    ive been playing it for just 1 day and i got stuck on one place
    and called my friend and asked him what to do, and he said something
    like, well, its the last thing you ever do in the game.

    So i guess I will finish it pretty soon :X
    But dont get me wrong, its a really nice game, good story,
    seems like they have taken Elements from both Silent Hill 3 and
    resident evil, the effect when a monster comes and the walls
    and floors morphs is REALLY cool.

    If you like horror games you should really try it out,
    the only bad thing is that the control takes some time to learn,
    there are many buttons and shit to keep track on.

    Wow. This game was definitely NOT on my radar. I just checked gamerankings.com and it don't look good though. Apparently the lack of mouse support is pretty bad?

    I have to make some statements here =D
    From my point of view this game is very underrated, it
    does not deserve the bad rankings it have got.

    BUT, Yes, the controlling takes some time to learn,
    especially cause of the lack of mouse. it feels like playing
    a more advanced version of silent hill 4 ;D

    You steer with W,S,D,A , Aim with Shift, Action and shooting on Enter,
    reloding R, Change Item on E and change weapon on Q (atleast i do)
    and then you use the arrows to scoll thru the items as there are
    no "Item Screen" and use special key on "space" , and on top of this
    you have a "Light boost" on Ctrl, so it can be a real pain in the ass :D

    But the game itself is not bad when you really get hang on it =D

    Good point. I've found that there are many games that are good, once you get past some annoyance. There are, of course, some annoyances that are not worth getting over (find another game). It is an interesting conundrum in many ways...since you can't really get that from some game reviews.
