After 100% completing this game, I say - I love it. It is a fantastic Fatal Frame entry to those who know what they are getting themselves into, alas, it is not without problems. Most clear negatives are: - The controls are horrible. If you only have a KB/Mouse setup, don't even bother buying it, it will not work properly without a controller (stutters every second or so as it tries to "detect" controllers. If you have one lying around, you can simply plug it in to get rid of the stutter though). - Lots of unskippable cutscenes - they are manageable for the first run, but if you wish to 100% the game, you will learn to kind of hate them. - Same crappy engine as with Maiden of Black water, with same bugs and issues - Not a true remaster, just a poorly done port to get it running on PC. Even the audio bitrate is pretty low. - Ah, the lenses are not described well enough and you really want to take a bit of time to experiment around to figure things out. - Have not tested it, but probably the game lacks ultrawide support (as does MOBW) and the "performance patch" going around should be avoided as it breaks the faces of quite a few wraiths in the game. But, the story is great and if you love the FF-style survival horror, you will love this one as well. Completed it 3 times to get all the achievements, but here is a tip if you wish to have an easy time with the game (not that it is not easy enough already with its lock-on mechanics): Do the "Normal" difficulty run at first, then NG+ with Hard and then Nightmare. After the initial run, you will have so many powerful toys to play with that enemies do not really pose much threat at all. I went from Hard > NG+ Nightmare > Easy and it was really enjoyable that way as well. Plus, after beating the game for the first time, consider doing a few missions as they give you tons of blue/red spirit stones for rewards to get all your lenses up to snuff. Don't try to do S-rank on them yet as most of them are only easily doable after obtaining the "Optimal" lense which essentially gives you infinite Film and every shot is a Fatal Frame. Anyways, personally, despite its flaws, I love the FF series and this one is no exception. I only wish that the game would receive more love from the developers as it could be much improved from the technical and QoL standpoint. Luckily, after 45h of gameplay, I have encountered 0 crashes, so at least that is good.

I still couldn't forget the very first time I played the trilogy of Zero (Fatal Frame in the US) on PS2. It was...and still...the best by far. This one is also great. Love it from start to finish. Still hoping there will be more after this, with the same quality or even higher. I will be patiently waiting for it. Hopefully KOEI TECMO will release the original trilogy from PS2 era again. Remaster it without changing anything. Just the pure original version as it should be. So thank you so much KOEI TECMO! Me absolutely likey! b(^_^)d

my favorite game ever, played it 8 times and i got all achievements. it’s my #1 out of the franchise, the story is so captivating. it’s aesthetically pleasing, and the new costumes are super cute!! they did an amazing job with the remaster. although i do think the atmosphere and creepiness is a lot better in the wii version. i really hope there’s more fatal frame content in the future, it’s my favorite horror game franchise EVER.

I have been playing horror games for 30+ years and the Fatal Frame series is near and dear to my heart. The first 3 instalments I have beaten and mastered probably over 20 times each and I consider them to be among the most genuinely scary games ever made. This game release is a remaster of the 4th instalment, which was originally released on the Nintendo Wii in 2008, and only in Japan. I was really excited to play this game now that it was finally released in North America, so I took my time with it. It took me 11 hours to explore and beat the game for my first playthrough. *Playing with an XBOX Controller is highly recommended. + The story here is well written, original, and beautifully told. There are approximately 5 -8 characters in this game that if you allow yourself to deep dive into the game's notes and cutscenes, you will be rewarded with a very robust story with heartfelt meaningful characters. + Despite being a remaster of an old Nintendo WII game, the graphics are great. This is due primarily because there is a dirty film filter over everything to give a dirty grunge look to the whole game. This is a great art style that adds to the eerieness and spookiness of the whole experience. Some of these filters even make certain creepy cutscenes feel photorealistic, and that you are watching some ancient abandoned cursed film footage long and forgotten. + The music and sound effects are spectacular. From the moans and groans of the ghosts, to rooms with "death rattle" noises, eerie enchanted organ music, all of it was amazing. The final walk up to the last boss of the game has some of the most beautiful music I have heard in a long time, perfectly haunting and mesmerizing. + If you play this game in the dark with headphones I guarantee you will get creeped out with goosebumps several times. +/- There is a ginormous amount of unlockables and things to collect in this game, to a fault. Upgrading the camera and finding / unlocking parts is always fun, however to 100% complete all of the achievements in this game is a true test of patience in monotony. You have to beat the game fully 3 times on different difficulties, collect 100's of notes, capture 100's of ghosts, (some only appearing for literally a split second in a 10 hour playthrough), capture random "blossomed" ghosts, and beat a bunch of hard challenges. I'm guessing it would take around 40 hours to 100% this game and 30 of those hours would be extremely tedious doing the same thing over and over again. - Your character walks too slow and the "Run" button is laughable. - In this game you have to move your flashlight around rooms to discover sparkles before you are able to pick items up. Since this game was designed first for the Nintendo WII, this process is a bit annoying on the computer. At times you will be waving your flashlight on a desk for 2 whole minutes trying to aim it correctly for an item to appear. - It doesn't happen too often, but some tight hallway ghost fights are super annoying. The ghosts can appear out of the walls right next to you. The game is definitely on the easy though, once you upgrade your camera you can kill most ghosts in 2-3 hits. Remember to lock on with LT ! If you have patience, there is a big, mature, slow burn of a game here with a mountain of stuff to unpack. Overall: 8.5 / 10
