Obscure or Obscure 2, wich one do you like best?

[T-Minus]

For you guys that have played both games, wich one did you enjoy most?

For me its the first game because:

- I like the characters better

- The characters have special abillitys (so does they have in Obscure 2 also ofc, but they are nedded to make progress in the game)

- You can still go on playing as long as one of the characters are still alive

- Unlockable special mod with extra costumes and weapons making it more fun to play longer

- The creatures can be killed during day time if you smash windows so light shines upon em, quite fun

- The storyline was better (in my opinion)

- Can carry disc´s and save game wherever you want instead of finding certain save points

But there is actually one thing that I really liked about the second game, it was more fun using melee weapons

So what do u think?

I think first part is better. But I prefer music from second.

yea i think the first one is better too since the secound one is kinda unrelestic i mean when your team mate died the game was over damm i wish somepony can remake the first obscure i like the perment dead system in the game

[GubbyTheChubby]

obscure 2 was the best from story so far. More entertaining than the first One but a bit too linear ..
from the creepy atmosphere i like the first one more

so all in all

i love both equal ^^

But you have to take into account the 5 year developement equipment difference

To keep it short, 2 had a better story, enforced by heavier scripting, 1 was overall a better game. Which is sad, because 2 feels a lot more professionally made, while 1 was just a lot of fun to play through.

2 also makes the terrible, terrible mistake of enforcing certain character pairs, but making the girls weaker in melee combat. As in, they swing way, way, wayyyy slower. This feels out of character for Shannon, to begin with, but also forces you to pull "Guys smash, girls shoot" all over the place.

Luckily, Final Exam is once again very fun and nice to get through, although the story is barely there, the gameplay is excellent. Hell, the minigames actually work against it because combat is enjoyable and they feel like padding.

So yeah, to anyone reading this, ObsCure 1-Awesome, Obscure 2-Meh, Final Exam-Awesome but padded.

1 Always!

I played 2 years ago and LOVED the stupid b-horror movieness of it, so I look forward to finally playing the first one!

Obscure: the only game where when I heard something outside slowly scratching the window - I ran over and smash the window in the hopes that i'll catch it in the act!

Obscure 1 was my personal preference. finished it at least 10 times back on the ps2. but number 2 did a surprisingly good job at continuing the story

Definitely the 1st, i think the second was too much arcade game style and not really anything with survival horror to do...
