it is heavily flawed as hell, but jesus i had a great time with it. something about the setting of the oldest house makes this stand out from other video game settings. the brutalist architecture mixed with 50's aesthetics and technologies worked for me immensely. the story and lore surrounding the fbc brought me in as well. i love remedy's use of live action footage and how they blend it in seamlessly into the game world and in this it's incredible, for example when seeing trench talk over the hotline and actually seeing him in the world.

that ashtray maze sequence man holy shit.
