I don't understand how people get past the visuals in this game.

Like, I can use my imagination for asci II roguelikes or shmups with fucking vector graphics. But those games don't have visuals that are actively working AGAINST what they're going for.

I find it impossible to look at the characters and monsters in this game without bursting into laughter and it just kills everything the game is going for in terms of theme. And while I don't usually find survival horror games "scary", at the same time I like to have a little bit of atmosphere when I play them, you know?

>The earliest argument was you could do a lot more in aitd than in RE.

Which devolved into "there are less resources and melee only and its harder and more complex therefore its better"

And when it's pointed out that harder isn't necessarily better and more complex isn't necessarily better, and that RE games still stick to solid fundamentals of level design and resource management, we get a bunch of weird insane back pedaling and confusing meme bullshit.

>So is the last of us.
There are deep and serious problems with tlou that Ocarina doesn't have. It's not even a close comparison.

>He didn't talk about aitd.

No he talked about your strawman about chibi lovecraft.

>Consoom

Says the guy who's so deep in his nostalgia that he thinks pic related is scary.

"BUH BUH ITS DARK AND TWISTED BECAUSE IT NAME DROPPED CTHULHU, THE POPULAR NERD FICTION GUY WHO I WAS TOLD IS THE BES1T HORROR WRITER EVER BY TV TROPES"

No anon, it's not scary, it's fucking cute.

Please post old games that play like Alone in the Dark. I remember one where you enter this village and go into a pub and monsters attack you (no not Alone in the Dark 3). I think the game starts with you riding on a horse. I also remember one where you travel through time and you are in WWII and later in the future. Another one where you are in some French museum (you have to disable some laser alarm system) and it's about crusaders. I don't remember any names though.

Not accidental, "inspired" or anything; it walk the line of being explicitly based on the Cthulhu universe, and some of the references (in books and whatever) are straight out of the C Mythos
