What the hell Chains of Harrow? -Quest Spoilers-

[Snow]

So, I cant handle horror games. Like at all. I really wanted to unlock harrow so im like *Screw it lets just go*. I load into this long♥♥♥♥♥dark hallway.

Me being the little ♥♥♥♥♥ I am, I looked up a youtube walkthrough of first part of the quest.

Go find some dead grineer, go find some blood, go find some blood, go kill some ppl and find a guy and kill more people. Not that scary.

I eventually got kinda annoyed finding the second blood writing so I went back to the video and saw where he went. Cool. Just down the corner, up some stairs and theres the writing. Nothing weird.

I flew up those stairs and came close to having an aneurysm.

See, the blood writing was there. But so was this: http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1340631946

Look at the wall just above the writing if you cant figure out what the obvious problem here is.

So what the hell chains of harrow? I wound up looking up like 4 diffrent walkthroughs and none of their videos have ♥♥♥♥ing spiderman shadow people.

Well im the person who plays dying light, and the lighting scares them more than the volatiles.

I will litteraly do nightruns just to go and play with volatiles. The things that get me in games are lighting and jumpscares.

I mean sure, I can just bullet jump through this but im just trying to figure out who the hell is stuck to the ceiling.

seriously speaking it looks like the new spider corpus bots that DE showd in the devstream 2 weeks back. IS this an easter egg?

So, the big issue with the chains of Harrow from a horror perspective is that you play the entire thing as a super powerful hyper agile warframe that can outrun everything that is thrown at you. Part of what makes horror scary is knowing that there are things that are out of place and you can't easily deal with, so basically your character has to be at least partially helpless. In many cases, even just a simple addition like a weapon is enough to diffuse the tension quite a bit. Sure you can't actually kill possessed Rell during most of the quest, but you can outrun him like all heck, so you aren't actually really vulnerable during it. That kind of kills the tension during missions since nothing can stand up to you. The most scary things in the quest imo were at the very start where your screen did some weird things with rap tap tap, and the First Person sections with Palladino. Then again, I don't really find third person games all that scary to begin with (First Person games on the other hand... those can get to me).

This became me during pretty much everything in this game. Nothings tense. Nothings remotly "difficult".

I did Octavias Anthem (And ♥♥♥♥ the part where you have to fight off like 6 waves of sentients), it just became me running in circles for a while chipping away at them because well, I can outrun anything lol.

I mean the dialogue at the start actually gave me goosebumps. The rap tap rap tap that sound extremely faint then just one tap that sounds like its in your ear. Yeah.

I looked it up on google and I cant find ANYTHING about this. There are shadow people much later on but they're a lot diffrent. I mean I saw this thing and I just aborted the mission. No way in hell was I getting any closer to it.

Have fun after you finished the quest later on

You'll see it in pretty much any video where the wall is viewed from a distance. For example 7:17 in the following video; (disclaimer I watched all these muted, so can't say if the commentary is safe for work etc, just throwing that out there)

Or this one at 6:32

This one at 4:05

And so on. The video's I've seen where they don't see it, are typically because their first view of the message/wall is from a fairly close proximity. Not sure if it's tied to proximity or if it's just based on a timer though, but seems to last varying times disappearing as people get closer suggesting the former.

You got that scared by what looks to be a visual bug?

If you deem visual bug to be semi-transparent man hanging upside down from the ceiling in the dark.





Yes.
