The Inpatient opinion thread

[shakie19]

Having had the VR since release, i've not really used it much. Partly due to work and partly due to me feeling a gaming burnout. 

 

But this year i've had a thirst for gaming again platting 4 games (3.5 really as one is telltale batman) and seeing the trailer for the inpatient i was like wow i must get that. But before i do i was after a few opinions of it. 

 

How does it play? is it beneficial that i play until dawn first? Worth it? Any issues with it?

 

I don't usually care about reviews or opinions because i believe that everyone's taste is different, but, i have such a huge backlog of games i need to through it's beyond a joke.

I liked it and i think it's beneficial if you played (and liked) until dawn, of course, but it's also quite alright on its own.

The game is rather slow paced and short, and i didn't have any problems with motion-sickness whatsoever, which is a plus

 

Overall the "horror" is okay, nothing special or ground-breaking, and there is basically just one small jump-scare scene near the beginning of the game, iirc. 

So if you dislike jump-scares, it's not a problem in this one (besides the one scene early on).

 

platinum is short and easy, too. two playthroughs (one good, one bad) plus one backup save in the "bad" playthrough, that's it. can be done in 4-5h easily. in fact i did it in one, continuous session, which kinda confirms my impression that motion-sickness or other discomfort is not really a problem here. i definitely had more problems in other games like robinson, for example.

Great read. I was planning on getting until dawn soon anyway. I’ve not had issues with motion sickness, yet! 4-5 hour plat would suit me right down to the ground with all my other games I have. 

 

The horror side wouldn’t bother me as it’s them type of games I enjoy

I've never played Until Dawn but I did pick this game up and do 2 full playthroughs of it and I enjoyed my time with it. The first time through the jump scares got me but playing the 2nd time they didn't. The story was really well told and I like the characters for the most part. It's a solid VR title.

I personally love the until dawn games and this one is no exception. Personally I think it's one of the best vr games out there so I definitely recommend picking it up.

I'm with you brother. I'm in the same shit with my huge backlog games.

I really loved it. It would be nice if you played Rush of Blood. It helps with some of the things they talk about. But you would still like it even if you didn't. It is really good and creepy.
