Does anyone have any info on where to watch this or when it's coming to homes in case I've missed anything?
I remember being so hyped for this movie but being in the UK I couldn't watch it on release. Just remembered about it again recently and desperately want to give it a watch!
I just want to start off explicitly saying I am not a hater, I absolutely love Puppet Combo hence the day 1 buy, but...
The new Backrooms game kind of feels off for me and I want to know if anyone else is getting the same vibe. A big drawback is the controls, I know their style and that there's a certain clunkiness to their controls but this one feels somewhat badly optimised for consols, it's hard to explain but it controls like a game made for a single joystick controller.
My main issue is, there is a lack of their iconic charm to the game, 0 voice lines, which isn't a problem in and of itself, but in the 'overworld' there are 0 NPCs standing about, none, and when you interact with one, a single 2D image of a character silently pops up on screen and it just feels really tacked on and almost lazy? The Backrooms themselves also feel off, like the wall textures (as seen in the photo) are inconsistent, not in the cool off-putting Backrooms way though, more like a thrown-together way and it's weirdly distracting.
Sorry for the rant, I'm just a little disappointed as it feels like they knew a Backrooms movie is around the corner so they threw together a game dedicated to the Backrooms, minus their usual polish (even if said polish is a "downgraded" style).
Anyone else play it yet? Thoughts?
