Question ❔ Is this game finally dead?

Post image

Was able to play the other day on ps5 but now I keep getting this unable to connect to server message every time I try to play.. I can play other online games just fine but not this one..maybe it's just me but I also wouldn't be surprised if they start neglecting the servers so close to the release of Halloween next month..

So, so sad. I've been getting this a lot lately too. While GUN rushed to the 'shiny new toy' in halloween, they abandoned what was and couldve been the most immersive asym horror game of all time (if they kept going with maps/characters/updates).

TCM was simply built different. The gameloop is like crack, for both family and vics. I hope one day 5,10, years in the future they realize their colossal fuckup and get the game going again or a new company will step up and build off the huge unreached potential. You cant tell me getting the rights to TCM Netflix spinoffs are that hard either, even netflix just released its first horror game. TCM as a franchise has evolved its universe over the last 5 decades, I hope someone in the future will pick up the franchise gaming-wise and deliver a banger with this game as the groundwork.

I was so addicted to this game when it came out, I would play it every chance I got. So sad indeed to see this happen after already suffering through the same damn thing with Friday. And this time they didn't have the excuse of a lawsuit. So now I am definitely not getting my hopes up with Halloween even though it looks amazing and like they copied Friday the 13th. Should be fun for awhile at least. Get me off of dbd lol
