For a bit of context, the last time I played this game was in 2016, when it was still not fully released (I even have a bugged out Steam Achievement that doesn't exist anymore). To some people this review might be unfair because of this, but that was my experience with the game. I remember being really interested in the game's atmosphere and it evoked feelings of fear/anxiety as I struggled to survive. At one point, I encountered a deer, and the game crashed. That meant that my run was dead and I had to start from the beginning. I was not happy about that, but I started a new run, in which the same thing happened again. I closed the game after that and never opened it again. It's been a long time since then, and the game is now fully released so I should give it another try sometime, but until then, this is my experience with The Long Dark.

I've put so many evenings into this game and I need to finally log it just doing challenges and the sandbox mode alone this game has been an absolutely riveting one. I crave the type of setting this provides and there really is no other survival games like it. Having to dear the cold more than monsters, the weather more than anything else is how a survival game shoud work. There is usually a point where you can safely walk from end to end of the map with your big sweaters and native american boots but to get there is not to become invicable, you still have to deal with nature in so many other ways, those sprains on steep inclines will ruin your clothes, wolves will be pests, bears and moose will not give a shit how well padded you are with your maritime double brested coat, it will find a way to fuck you up and leave you almost dead

Je m'essaye à The Long Dark... Heu bah c'est un peu chiantos comme jeu non ? Beaucoup de temps d'attente... On veut faire un feu ? 30 secondes d'attente. On veut dormir ? 20 secondes d'attente. On veut recycler des objets ? 15 secondes d'attente.
J'avais jamais joué à ce genre de jeu, bah je crois que c'est vraiment pas mon truc (surtout dans une période comme en ce moment où je n'ai pas beaucoup de temps, je veux rentabiliser mes sessions de jeu, pas observer une barre de chargement qui symbolise l'avancement de mes actions).

Dommage le jeu est très beau avec son style graphique stylisé, et il y a même une histoire alors que je m'attendais à un truc 100% bac à sable !

Bu oyundan gerçekten keyif aldım. Muhtemelen Jack London'ın soğuğun dehşeti ve güzelliği hakkında ilk yazdığı şeyi yakalayan birkaç oyundan biri. Oyun o kadar sürükleyici hale geldi ki, rüzgârdaki ulumanın başka bir orman kurdu olmamasını umarken küçük bir kayalık çöküntüde ateş yakmak gibi sıradan görevleri yapmak için saatler harcayabilirdim. Envanterimi gözden geçiriyor ve avlanmak için yeterli yiyeceğim olmadığını ve sadece birkaç parça cephanem kaldığını fark ettiğimde panikliyordum. Kırık bir ceketle soğukta tavşan avlama riskini göze almalı mıyım yoksa tepelerin üzerinden bolca geyiğin olduğu vadiye mi yürümeliyim? Ama saldırıya uğrayacak mıyım?
Devam edebilirim. Benim deneyimime özgü milyonlarca hikayem var. Bu tamamen daldırma harika.
