How Bad is this Game?

[Shinytism]

Without spoiling anything **please**. How bad does this game get?
Like, is there any hardcore visuals (:shrug: gore or stuff), or is it mostly just the psychological tension from the text, etc.

It's light on gore and jumpscares. I'm not saying none, I'm just saying this isn't the source of the "horror."

Most of it comes from the unsettling and uncanny. I really can't give examples, obviously, but... let's just say that I feel the warnings are justified.

[Shinytism]

hmm. i think i see what you mean. seeing as ive read a few reviews beforehand, and made the game less blind (thank god for that lol)

[Annaliz Vaughn]

It's nothing that will give you nightmares, but some of the imagery comes straight out of the uncanny valley, but you'll be too focused on the good sides of the game to worry about that.

[Shinytism]

sounds good to me. will have as much fun with the loli as i can then.
i mean. what
thats not weird at all. please TwT

[Taro Acedia]

There is blood and weird violence, but mostly the tension and bizarreness make the horror

[Crizman]

Like Ranylyn said, its light on the gore (its not really gorey as its more bloody than anything) and jumpscares. its there but not over done like some other games

But its more the unsettling atmosphere and disturbing imagery that drives this without saying too much about what happens

[Shinytism]

yeah. i probably should have said, disturbing images, rather than gore lol. just realised theres a big difference. hopefully itll be fine.

[Talithmara]

To be fair, when people think "disturbing" they usually think "gore."

... or "clowns." That's weird.

But yeah, if you decide to stop, no one's judging. I hope you have fun.

[Shinytism]

will (try) do

[100% lob juice]

The imagery is more "esoteric" than it is gory.

This game is fine nothing wrong with it at all all those tags are trolls
It's fun to play at night just to pass the time

Hey, pretty much everything was said, the only thing I want to add is:
you should take the warnings seriously. If you feel highly uncomfortable, very very insecure or suffer from mental instability, please consider reading the warnings here (but care, !!!!spoilers!!!! - only read if you know youre unstable and/or suffering from mental disorders): http://ddlc.moe/warning.html
theres also a thread about potential triggers that arent listed on that site (same, !!!spoilers):
http://steamcommunity.com/app/698780/discussions/0/1479857071270204888/

if youre just curious about the game and just a bit afraid, you should be fine ;) the game shouldnt cause any harm if you arent already scarred or at least highly sensitive to disturbing stuff.

the music play a large part in the game unsettling ambiance , its goes from warm and welcoming to something rather cold and outlandish.

Definitely do not disregard the warnings if you have emotional/psych problems you're struggling with. I'm not saying you CAN'T play it if you have those problems, but you will want to keep an eye on how good a day you're having to start with and whether you need to take a breather. It can get pretty heavy and distressing.

Exactly. If you're just nervous about the game, it's not that bad. But if you have issues with depression or something like that, it can be very distressing. Someone mentioned... I forget what she had issues with. I think paranoia and keeping a grip on what is real, if that makes sense? This game can really push those kind of buttons. There's only a little blood, but the game gets very creepy.
