Killed Inside Cabinet

Hey everyone! New to the game and was wondering why I kept dying despite being hidden?

This was my third run on the game and I had similar experiences on my previous ones. I am pretty sure the ghost didn't see me enter the cabinet. I also turned off my electronics and made sure not to make any noise.

Do I perhaps have to unequip my tool? Or do I need to hide further away from where the hunt began? What should I do?

A little help will make my experience significantly better!

Why is the game suddenly so boring?

Back then i used to watch FlashForce play phasmophobia and this is why I was into Phasmophobia back then

So I saved up enough money and brought Phasmophobia and I've played with my school friends

Fast forward to 2026 and I regret buying the game. Cause what can I even do in the game right now?

I join lobbies just to get kicked

And for some reason my settings keep getting reseted for no reason

Tbh I regret buying the game already

My first successful investigation + opinion of the game

Ghost hunted me at 83% sanity, I circled demon but felt weird going off of only a hunt so I went back inside of the house to check my equipment.

Immediate ghost event. I got the hell out of there.

Funny because the rounds afterwards I only got ghosts with normal sanity thresholds, and it felt weird to me. Why were these ghosts so inactive? Why weren't they hunting like what I now deemed 'normal'?

Then I realised I had just gotten unlucky my first few rounds and these ones were normal.

I absolutely love this game so far, I am desensitized to horror for the most part, but this game scared the crap out of me. 10/10 play when you have generalized anxiety disorder

Dear Kinectic games

We do not NEED a 13 Willow Rework. We don't need any new animations. We just need the game to work like it use to before your character customisation update that launched on May 3rd this year.

That's it! All the negative reviews and criticism, or at least 95% of it will stop!

You know what the community REALLY wanted all along? Not new animations, but NEW GHOSTS, AND NEW MAPS. If you want to give us new content, give us those! But for goodness sake, before giving us anything new, just revert the game back to what it use to be before the character customisation update, please!!

Generic reviews from accounts with 1 game and 1 review, looks like review botting, what do you all think?

If we ever got new maps, what would you want?

I personally like the idea of

A library

A supermarket

A cemetery

Maybe like a community center with a pool.

A cabin with a pond or like a treehouse

A beach

I wish we got new maps more often.

Dead Player running around map?

Ok, so new player. None of us know anything. End result said it was a wraith but here's the run down.

It killed a player alone early. We see his sanity slowly dropping on the screen, and his map marker moving in a weird way. It goes to the entrance of the lighthouse and like. Waits for us. It looks like the dead player just crouching and moving. Weirdly fast.

We finally go in, I turn on a lamp and it's just waiting under the stairwell. Watching me. It was following my and the other guy. At one point it opens the LOCKED DOOR and goes outside.

Did something bug or like. What was that because NOTHING says the wraith can do that and it was genuinely the freakiest and most unpleasant thing I've ever seen. The player's ghost could see it running around the lighthouse. It was guarding the door. The other player left out of sheer fear and I was killed hiding alone in a corner.

Aside From Bugs, What Would You Improve About The Game?

(All bugs are fixed)

Graphics

  1. The lighting and shadows are improved
  2. The optimization is improved for better frames

Lobby

  1. The old lobby is brought back and you can select different properties to be your lobby. So the original one, the current one, and additional ones. Lobby customization options such as paint, flooring, furniture, lights, and so on are also added
  2. Add a backpack. When you place the backpack, it's opened and displays all the holsters for the equipment and you can add whatever you want. Once the equipment is added to their holsters, it acts like the shelves in the truck so they can be removed and added back. The table next to the monitor would be perfect for gathering the equipment before going to the location
  3. The character customization is overhauled and the options are cheaper
  4. The shop UI is further improved to accommodate the lobby and character customization improvements
  5. Add a new mode where you exorcise the ghost
  6. Add the ability to play old maps and choose how many floors you want to play on

Settings

  1. Add a setting for people with sight and hearing anomalies to help make the game more playable for them
  2. Add a setting for re-arranging the ghost names in the journal back to how it was before
  3. Add a new mode where you exorcise the ghost
  4. Add the ability to play old maps and choose how many floors you want to play on

Gameplay

  1. The movement is reworked so you can sprint for the entire game if you choose, but there's some sort of penalty so you can't outrun the ghost every time. Perhaps stamina can be reworked so that it's generous at the beginning but you slow down over time, however it needs more time to recharge? Only an idea
  2. The truck is never 10 miles from the main door
  3. The ghost behaviors are far more advanced. Random things such as the ghost greeting you at the door, watching TV, ordering pizza, throwing chairs through windows, flipping tables, and so on
  4. The ghost events are overhauled, mainly the singing events
  5. The ghosts' traits are more consistent. For example, yesterday I got a Goryo that kept singing like a Banshee non-stop. So in that case, the Banshee would be the only ghost that can sing 3 times in a row or more
  6. There's 5 slots for sound recorder media, with more things to record to compensate

Misc

  1. Add mod support. Modders contact the developers with their mod idea, the developers greenlight it, and the modder submits their work. If it needs some improvements, the developers tell them how to improve it more. If it's fine as is, it gets added immediately. This allows balance between vast options and quality rather than things that are too random. (I know the developers judging quality is ironic but in a perfect world this could be ideal)
  2. The cursed possessions have more spawn locations

Noob friendly solo leveling?

So I have not played in at least a year. So there are reworked maps I have not played, New evidence mechanics and new ghosts I have no experience with. Last time I played I prestiged to prestige 1 so I am down to having next to nothing to work with. Are there any good ways to level solo that dont include the camp woodwind farm since I am not good at guessing ghosts by the hunt at the moment. I used to farm Nightmare when I was past level 50 but having limited inventory makes things hard. Thanks

Can someone explain to me why this is NOT a Poltergeist?

It was an Obake because I recorded her shapeshifting, but I only found out that later.

Rewards?

I’ve played Phasmo for a lot back when it got released. Managed to get every map 100% multiple times, speedrunning etc. now I see that the game has a rework since I paused the game for more than 1 year. Do old players get some kind of reward / prestige etc since there are levels now?

¿Comprar el juego o no?

Hola.

Estoy interesada en comprarlo para un amigo y para mí, pero, las reseñas que leo y vídeos que veo hablando del estado del juego actualmente, me tiran a no querer hacerlo. Obviamente sería una persona principiante, y quiero un juego de este género que sea muy rejugable, ya que tiendo muchísimo a enfocarme en un solo juego. Pero no que sea frustrante en cuanto a progreso.

¿Alguien que pueda decirme si sí o si es mejor pasar y buscar otra alternativa? Que he visto que las hay, pero me llama la atención este porque es el que más suena del género terror cooperativo.

Gracias.
