The Dark Pictures: The Devil in Me

Even though the characters aren't as good as some of the other supermassive games casts it more than makes up for it with the improved gameplay great story and gruesome kills. I feel as if the next game could make or break the series with how outstanding this entry was. With house of ashes they had a more action this one focused on more horror elements and was definitely the scariest in so far in the dark pictures anthology. I hope that the next game will keep up this quality because this is nothing short of a great time. I would highly recommend if you have played the other games in the series. 9/10.

I have played many Supermassive Games from Until Dawn, to each of the Dark Pictures Anthology installments.

Until Dawn was a supremely fantastic game that I wish I could play over again for the first time. However, what I've noticed about this Anthology series, is that they seem to know how to build up a story and world, but then they fumble with the actual delivery, and most especially the ending.

This, on top of clunky mechanics, several bugs that shouldn't exist in a $40 game, and wonky graphics, makes for a frustrating experience.

The characters for each of these games are generally wooden or plain unlovable and I always find myself not truly caring if they live or die in the end.

The Devil in Me didn't feel like it had any really "high stakes" moments like other games from Supermassive. The game also just sort of... Ended suddenly out of nowhere, and it fell flat, never really reaching a true crescendo.

I love horror games, and this one had the potential to garner the right experience with the setting and the premise alone, and so I'm very disappointed by how dull and bland I feel after finishing it.

Played this with a friend and we had a lot of fun! I'll have to replay it some time with someone else.

I got quite attached to the characters, especially Erin and Jamie. The visuals are nice, the scares made me jump, and the co-op experience is immaculate and adds to the most to the gameplay! Playing this on your own might not be great, play it with a friend!

It'd be 9/10 if it wasn't so buggy. Our run took ~5 hours, yet we had to reopen the game 6 times and restart a whole section. The character voices glitched, models got stuck in T-poses, the breaker puzzle was REALLY broken on my end and I had to google a work-around, and we got frozen in-place on each other's screens a few times. To cap it all off, my game crashed right as the ending credits finished lol.

I don't typically mind bugs, they usually add to a game's charm imo. Mark T-posing during a serious cutscene was great, but there were so many major glitches that I have to say something.

I'd still replay this game with another friend, though!

Within the first hour or so of play through I was super disappointed in the graphics and the bare minimum of facial expressions. All of the players looked super dead in the eyes or too smiley at times. Plus in situations where they should have been panicking or screaming there was silence. The previous 3 games were way better so it was a shock to feel like the production on this was cheap. I did really enjoy being able to jog (not walk faster), jump, and have a reliable light source. Playing the game a bit more and the story sucked my husband and I in. I feel like I had some unanswered questions in the end however. Overall, great story but disappointing graphics.

I really loved all the games in the first season of The Dark Pictures Collection. I know there are some that are better than others, but honestly this is the best of the four. Actually was the only one that managed to really scare me. I don't understand the bad reviews, for me, this should be the one with the highest score.

If you truly are a fan of horror games, you will like this one. The atmosphere in the game and the story make it especially good, as well as having great characters.

It was an excellent season finale and I hope they continue to keep this high level, since after this, I expect nothing less.
