One thing ruined the game

[MrCapone O Mineiro]

The school parts, it really sucked big time, do you agree?

No, parts with Jessica was one of the best parts in game, at first i was sceptical to but later i was waiting for school parts, how they combined all this stuff is just amazing

[Malkavian]

I also loved the school parts. The transitions from real world to the school became seamless later in the game, it was really impressive. It provided variety too.

Don't think those parts sucked exactly, but yeah, near the end it became a bit too much for me.

The game is supposedly taking place over one or two nights? And the game is trying to exhaust you by throwing you into so many ridiculous situations during that time frame. So being constantly taken out of that experience worked against its of own theme of, well... outlasting something. I would've much preferred if the school parts were one big flashback. It also makes it tough to replay the game I feel.

yeah the school parts suck so much

actually school scenes was very good and scary

tbh it really made the story strange and iu disliked that aspect, for what they were though they were really well done, some tension.

How to completely ruin the school scenes.

Them increasing in number and intensity as the end got closer was part of the story and overall experience.

I sadly have to agree. I realised early on that there was no way to die at the school, until much later on in the game, after that it took away from the tension in my opinion.

Well they were a little jarring with the pace of the rest of the game to say the least. Two or three of them would have been more than enough.

That and they weren't scary.
You knew those sections were part past memories and part hallucinations, which means there was no actual threat there.
Which makes those whole sections boring. Sure, the atmosphere and sound design was great but they had way too many cheap, loud jumpscares and. like i said, no threat.
They just wanted to make some "cool" and "hip" transitions from location to location because they were:
a) too lazy to make transitions that actually make sense
b) trying to be cool and surprising with this as much as they could
