Popular Post NewVegasNick Posted May 29, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted May 29, 2017 How this has a sub 1000 player count in the month following release boggles my mind. The voice acting, the graphics, the story and the flow of the game is fantastic. Everything here is so great. Even the trophies are easy. You can get them all in about 2-3 hours. Edith Finch currently has an 88% on metacritic and has easy trophies. I'm curious why so few have played it so far. Is it a price thing? 21 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Bullstomp Posted May 29, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted May 29, 2017 Saying this game is the best walking simulator is kind of like claiming to be the tallest midget in the circus. Glad you enjoyed it but even if they gave it away it would be at the bottom of my priority list (like "Everybody's Going to the Rapture", which I downloaded from plus and still haven't played). Too many good games out there imo. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baldy_Buoy Posted May 29, 2017 Share Posted May 29, 2017 I'm really looking forward to playing this! Think it looks gorgeous and and by the sounds of it the storey is fantastic. But I'm not paying £18 (or however much it is) for a 3 hour game. Will pick it up in a sale at some point and I'm sure I'll love every minute of it when I do. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Miles_Warren Posted May 29, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted May 29, 2017 I'm going to be honest - I never go out of my way to purchase walking simulators. The only time I play them is if they are free on Plus and I have a feeling Edith Finch will be free one day. Saying that, I really did enjoy the last walking simulator I played "Everybody's Gone to the Rapture". From the voice acting, to the scenery, to the soundtrack....ohhh the soundtrack ? 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snakebit10 Posted May 29, 2017 Share Posted May 29, 2017 I will play it one day. I did enjoy Everbody's gone to the rapture. I bet if this had a platinum trophy more people would of played it already. I could be wrong though. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post NewVegasNick Posted May 29, 2017 Author Popular Post Share Posted May 29, 2017 (edited) So It seems that price and the probability of it being free on psplus are holding a lot of people back. Totally understandable tbh. I just hope Giant Sparrow is able to make a profit off the game. They really knocked it out of the park, in my opinion. The 5 year development time shows. I want to support games with this amount of polish (if it does ever go on Plus, I hope they get a good deal from sony haha) Edited May 29, 2017 by DoucetDudes 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harsly Posted May 29, 2017 Share Posted May 29, 2017 I am so looking forward to playing this, I've heard nothing but good things about it, and I've been following it since before release. That being said I am going to be waiting for a price drop though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope they don't lower the price personally, it is worth every $. Was amused to read the irrelevant posts by the cheap skates that offered nothing except that they wouldn't pay for something of quality. I personally bought it on two regions to support the devs,I hope they keep on making such creative stuff. Edit : why do people that have not played that game feel qualified to comment on it.

HellcoreFire Posted May 29, 2017 Share Posted May 29, 2017 This is a site pimarily for trophy hunters so it's probably because the game doesn't have a platinum trophy. Or maybe many have already bought it and put it in their backlog because there are so many good games out right now. Than there's the fact that this will probably become a part of the Instant Game Collection. I personally didn't even know it was already out.

I'm the exact same way. Length and price don't matter to me when purchasing a game. I want quality. Something Edith Finch has in spades 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marvelboy10 Posted May 29, 2017 Share Posted May 29, 2017 The developer of the game said it took him 4 years to develop this game and all its aspects. That being said I can already say prior to purchasing it that I will not be disappointed when I play it. This game does look interesting and it does intrigue me. I've played Everybody's Gone To The Rapture, Gone Home, and newly released Deliriant, so I know what to expect. This game currently costs $19.99 which is an okay price for what it's worth. But I'm going to wait until they have a price drop or if they release this for free for PS Plus in the future. Similar to how they did with Everybody's Gone To The Rapture and Gone Home. This game does look promising and I'll take your word that it is a fantastic game. By the way great job on being the 6th fastest achiever. ? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really hope you enjoy it as much as I did when you do eventually get it! Holy shit, I didn't even realize that I was the 6th fastest achiever Thanks for the heads up!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SolarCat02 Posted May 29, 2017 Share Posted May 29, 2017 This is the third place I have seen someone praising this game, so I am looking forward to being able to play it at some point. I have been keeping an eye on it, like I did with Everyone's Gone to the Rapture until it went on Plus (and I was not disappointed there, even took tons of screenshots, and left certain areas running for background noise and the beautiful scenery). At the moment I have so many games in my backlog I still intend to play, though, plus an increase in the bills and a decrease in available playtime both due to our newborn. So can't really justify spending money on another game at the moment. PS+ is the only gaming expense in the budget for quite a while. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrBloodmoney Posted May 29, 2017 Share Posted May 29, 2017 I will certainly play when i get a chance - Everybody's Gone to the Rapture was one of my favourite games of the past few years - this is just a difficult year to get to all the good games. 2017 might well be shaping up to be the first serious contender to dethrone 1998 as the greatest year for videogames. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diskdocx Posted May 29, 2017 Share Posted May 29, 2017 1 hour ago, cjshaitan said: Edit : why do people that have not played that game feel qualified to comment on it. Because the question was why have people not played it. So that would seem to welcome input from people who are familiar with the game, but have not yet purchased it. Personally, it is on the list, but the price ($26.99 CDN presently), is hard to justify for a non-platinum game, which offers maybe a couple of hours of game play and no replayability. This is not a reflection of the quality of the title, but I only have so much time and money, and a big backlog. I look forward to playing it once there is a price drop. I'm sure a lot of time when into the development and production of the game. I wonder if the sales would have been much higher at a launch price of $10 US. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It isn't hard to "buy the game twice to support the devs" when you have an Australian salary. I have to work for seven years to earn what you earn in a year. So please reconsider using the term "cheapskates" next time, because not everyone is so fortunate to be born in such an economically superior country as yours. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
audiopile Posted May 29, 2017 Share Posted May 29, 2017 I have this on my wishlist and am excited for the day I get to experience it. I will buy it when it goes on sale, like I do with everything else I spend money on. Call me cheap, frugal, or smart, I really don't care. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post FluffyAssassin64 Posted May 8, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted May 8, 2019 Just played it (currently free on PS+), and 'best walking simulator' doesn't even do this game justice. This is one of those experiences where I can honestly recommend everyone play it. It might seem unassuming at first, but this is an incredibly creative and affecting game. Sure, it's short and there's minimal interaction, but this is one of my favourite gaming experiences in recent memory. Seriously, 10/10. 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rapture I loved. So many different levels of satisfaction there. I'm going to have to give this Edith one a spin tonight. I did Blackwood and Rapture both back in 2017 and probably high time I did another game like this as a break from other stuff. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sikutai Posted May 8, 2019 Share Posted May 8, 2019 (edited) "Everybody Gone to the Rapture" and "The Vanishing of Ethan Carter" are much better Walking Simulators. That's my opinion. Edited May 8, 2019 by Sega-Ryudo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
