Anyone else get a bit of a Twin Peaks vibe?

Between how some of the characters act and some of the music, I sometimes get shades of Twin Peaks while playing this

The prologue demo already gave me that sort of bizarro world vibe from the creepy little girl and how nonchalant she was about everything

Yeah, yeah: i was thinking of the original Twin Peaks series when i was playing last night in the dark. The music totally reminded me of that masterpiece.

Also, Shutter Island, The Thing, Silent Hill, RE. Mikael Hedberg did a fantastic job writing for this game

Even Captain Future had more Twin Peaks vibes than these game. Where do you get your vibes from ?

There is a short dance scene that got me thinking about Audrey. Even the music is similar.

Yep, it's one of the reasons I love the game. This is the most interesting the AITD franchise has been in a long time. While I thought Banishers was this year's most underrated/underappreciated game, I think AITD has topped it. I love almost everything about this game. It just speaks to me.

I'm hoping we get another one and they don't try to copy the more action oriented Resident Evils to try and appeal to those that prefer those style of games but instead they go heavier into puzzles and investigations. This feels more like if modern Resident Evil followed the path of the original 3 games instead of RE4 being their current main influence

Twin Peaks? Now I'm interested 👀

That saxophone music is Twin Peaks

I hope it stays in this vein. You have to change and evolve. Personally, I prefer this neat noir-style detective feel with jazzy music. Setting and ambiance is always important to me in games, and I think this one does that stuff exceptionally well. Fixed cameras are in the past. God of War and Resident Evil left that style behind, as did AITD with the 2008 game. It's not going back unless they decide to do some smaller indie take on it at some point.

Deadly premonition which is twin peaks inspired. Specifically PD2 with the New Orleans vibes
