When Team Ninja and Koei Tecmo randomly announced the remake of Fatal Frame II Crimson Butterfly, I honestly couldn’t believe it This was the game I used to watch my big cousin play back in 2012 when I was a kid Back then I never got the chance to play it myself, I could only watch So finally being able to play it now feels really special. The game starts with that legendary cutscene where Mio and Mayu enter the village The real gameplay begins after you get the Camera Obscura One thing I liked in the remake is the new feature where you can hold Mayu’s hand while walking to recover your willpower and HP, It’s a small thing but it actually makes you feel more connected to the game As you keep playing, you solve puzzles, do side stories, and take photos of revenants, specters, dolls, and wraiths Taking photos of ghosts is honestly one of the most fun parts of the game This is also why Fatal Frame feels so unique and different from other horror games I’ve honestly never seen many people talk about this game in my life, which is surprising because it’s really good Also thanks to Koei Tecmo for letting us turn off the film grain, The game looks much better without it As you read documents and play through the side stories and main story, you slowly realize how dark the story actually is When I reached the ending and Chou by Tsukiko Amano started playing, I honestly didn’t know how to react That song is really nostalgic for me, I’ve listened to it so many times before I finished the game in about 18.5 hours and I don’t regret doing the side stories at all, They were really good Overall this is a very good remake The only thing I didn’t like was the 30/60 FPS cap, They should have added an unlimited FPS option and kept 60 FPS for cutscenes I also don’t think this game is for everyone, It’s a very niche game and not everyone will enjoy the story But for people who have nostalgia for this game, it’s definitely worth playing

Once again, a new game saved by upscaling. Here’s my "amateur benchmarker" review: In my opinion, I wouldn't strictly say it's "unoptimized," even though the settings are weird (2K "maxed to the left"—yes, it's strange, but the max settings are on the left here). However, given the recommended system requirements mentioned an RTX 2060 6GB, I figured it would struggle even at native 1080p. It’s incredibly heavy, man; just to hit 2K 60fps, it's pulling over 200W. Fortunately, there’s DLSS 4.5. Even on Balanced or Performance mode, the results still look amazing—and yes, this game already supports DLSS 4.5. Regarding gameplay, I’m comparing it to the PS2 version since I never played the Nintendo one: Voice Acting: It sounds just like the original series (not sure if it's the same actors or not), but it’s a dead ringer. Mayu’s voice is faint and hazy as usual. Hand-holding: You can hold Mayu’s hand throughout the game so she doesn't get left behind, daze off in the middle of the road, or suddenly vanish like in the PS2 version. I have a feeling this will affect the ending (CMIIW). Audio: The menu sounds are still the same—very classic. POV: It’s shifted to TPP (Third-Person Perspective). Being "closer" to the main character makes exploring houses and encountering ghosts feel way more terrifying.

In most horror games you run from ghosts. In Fatal Frame, you politely wait for them to get closer so the picture comes out better

People who can't figure out how to disable film grain either shouldn't own a PC or haven't even actually started the game. Game looks incredible visually, but it's trendy to hate every game coming out now so I assume that's why people apparently can't use settings properly and need something to complain about

Foresee the game being very divisive. I will probably be on the minority for this one. So far I like it, I agree locking the game at 60FPS is dumb. You can change the controller input buttons, it took all of two seconds to do it in the menus so the reviews stating you can't change it are just flat out wrong. I played the original, love it, but I will always be in the minority camp of I understand the appeal of fixed camera angles but I think over the shoulder is good. Game runs well for me, but my PC is on higher end so major grain of salt there. I do not care about the mini-map, but I get if people don't like it. I feel a toggle option would be a fair compromise.
