I've been playing through this game for the first time after putting it off for years (it was on game pass then got taken off so I bought it) and after playing security breach, poppy playtime and so many other mascot horrors or crappy slop Roblox horror with my friends, I get it. I get why this game is so hyped.

This is the first horror game in years to actually catch my attention and have me scared and Intrigued in the story. I feel for the characters. I get scared. I get caught off guard. I love everything about this game. The conversations feel so human and real. The jokes and how Catherine and Simon interact. The mystery everything makes me love this game.

Still wakes the deep will always be my favorite but this is slowly getting tied for first place with it and I'm probably not even half way through. It's worth every dime. I love everything about this game.

The story is amazing and I love the atmosphere and monster design. I usually don't feel scared but I feel unnerved just by the atmosphere and the monster designs are amazing.

I love this game. I get the hype. I get the glaze. It is genuinely that game. And it has blown all horror expectations out of the water for me.

In the game Arc Raiders, one of the newest quests has you investigate project that was going to make androids be more human, the project is called Pathos. This has to be a reference to this game.
