FAITH absolutely floored me — I went in skeptical of the Atari-style graphics but came out genuinely unsettled in a way most modern horror games fail to achieve. The rotoscoped cutscenes are jarring and brilliant, and the sound design does things that high-budget games can only dream of. What really got me was how the game portrays evil not as something cheap and jumpy, but as something deeply depraved and staining — every demon encounter felt like losing a little bit of innocence. The story goes surprisingly deep for what looks like a retro curio, and by Chapter 3 I was fully invested in John Ward's journey. Fair warning: the movement is painfully slow and some boss fights can frustrate, but push through because the payoff is worth it. One of the most genuinely unsettling horror experiences I've had in years — Gary loves you.

Mortis

I wanted to like this game so bad because I love games like this. I just can't. I really enjoy that eerie atmosphere the game had but as soon as I brought out the first boss the games flaws became clear.

The game never tells you what to do like not even controls besides walking. I kinda just had to figure it out as I walked and roamed around.

When you are fighting the boss of the first chapter it's just annoying and really boring. A lot of the horror and fear I got from the game got lost because I just got anrgy over and over. The game would be a lot better if it was not as obnoxious with it's gameplay.

I'll finish it and maybe the game will suddenly get better but in it's current state I doubt it.
