Layers of Fear 2 still has some classic LoF moments, but it just didn't hit the mark like the first one did. There are some great ideas here, but it never felt like the breath of fresh air I was hoping for. First, I'll start with the POSITIVES: + A classic return to the Layers of Fear formula. Some may call it a walking simulator, but I call it a walking experience . The locked doors, twists, turns, and constant feeling of being disoriented are still great. + Some genuinely memorable scenes. There are a few moments where the game switches things up and actually feels fresh. + The horror progression was well done. Looking past the story, the gradual increase in spookiness worked really well. It wasn't always jumpscares thrown at you. + The sound design and overall atmosphere feel more polished this time around and do a lot of the heavy lifting for immersion. Here are some NEGATIVES that come to mind: - The story starts strong and then loses its way. The first act had me really interested, but the further I got, the less I understood what the game was trying to say. (could be a skill issue on my part) - I'd recommend picking this up for $5 or less. It's just too short to justify much more. - Loading points and scripted transitions were especially noticeable in Act 3 and made it feel more like a game at times. - Some sections drag on longer than they need to, especially toward the middle. Almost feels like filler. SPOILERS - Act by Act Review Act 1 — A classic return to the LoF style. It sets the stage really well and had me excited to see where the game was going. Act 2 — A nice build-up with some strong storytelling. The spotlight detector mechanic was dumb though. Act 3 — This is when it started to fall off...a bit repetitive and started to feel like a chore. Some really bad immersion-breaking cuts too. Easily my least favorite act. Act 4 — Great gameplay here. Very disorienting and fun, although this is when I lost my grasp of the story line. Act 5 — A lot was happening. But I liked it. Very spooky and they definitely didn't hold back, but the story completely fell apart for me. Overall Layers of Fear 2 isn't a bad game, but it never reached the level of the first one for me. There are some really cool moments and the atmosphere is still fantastic, but the story and some repetitive spots held it back. My Rating: 🌕🌕🌖🌑🌑 2.8 / 5
First playthrough review time. Layers of Fear 2 is a psychological horror game set in strange and shifting environments. The path is mostly linear, but the surroundings often change in unexpected ways. The game includes a few puzzles and item collection, which slowly reveal a dark and unclear story. The story is the strongest part of the game. As the game continues, things become darker and less clear, while the environment also keeps changing in unusual ways. The sound and voice acting help build the mood and keep the story engaging. The game also includes chase sections and trap moments along with the puzzles. These parts are not always smooth and can feel repetitive at times. The graphics change in quality, with some areas looking very detailed and others looking plain or less detailed. The sound design, however, stays strong throughout the game. The game might not launch after installation, and it may crash, so to fix this, follow the guide below. Overall, Layers of Fear 2 is a story-focused horror game with strong atmosphere and presentation. It works best for those who prefer a linear experience built around story and mood rather than complex gameplay. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2910352992 Note: If you are playing on a loaded save or starting New Game+, do not click the reset option. It can permanently delete your save data, including cloud saves, and your progress may be lost. It is better to keep a backup save and avoid using the reset option unless you want to fully erase all progress.
(Another Horror game I had to fix. This game does NOT start up. At all. Until you do something that someone wrote about in the guide/forums and I thank you kindly for providing such a solution!) Alright hmm well... This game feels much more different than Layers of Fear 1. I don't mean the setting either. It's... It's not the same. I didn't dislike it though. This one takes place on a ship. I don't like it. The interior seemed boring to me and swaying is really great for motion sick prone people. But eh, they actually CHANGED the scenes into different sets and I was glad for that. The rest were fine. They also had different puzzles/collectables and this time around... You didn't need to jump through a multitude of hoops to find the "better ending". I actually got the "better ending". I am appalled with myself. I ALWAYS get a BAD END in HORROR GAMES! But that may because I acted out of character... And now I am regretting the doggo part. Sniff. Anyway um... There is also "monster chases". Thankfully there is no stealth. I mostly got caught because I got lost either in the maze or the dark. They have an option to turn those off and I was like... Why? So I am going to pretend "something is after me"? That's kinda boring. And ah... It wasn't really scary. I did have a few good laughs though. That's important. I will give credit to that vase for a mini scare and that kitchen dummy running. >.> I was too excited at discovering the damn exit to notice it! So... Not disliked, but not on the same level as the first game. Still alright by me. (I am slightly annoyed at you making me attempt to crawl through the door sideways and upright... Only for myself to realize that I needed to "duck". Ahahah. Omg. XD)
If you loved the first game you might get disapointed. The ambient is a big plus but the game does not deliver fear in the layers. I'd say I felt more like I was in a walking simulator in a David Lynch movie (wich isn't that terrible though) with a confusing story, wich I also somewhat like since you have to think and figure out the story for yourself as you play. The monsters is pretty pointless and just add "puzzle" into the walking simulator. Some parts of the game just feels repetetive and therefor cheap and I kinda lost interest and took away the feeling you had after scenes where it was really interesting. I would still recommend to play it, because the game is still beautiful and ambient is on point and it is a a game on the cheaper side. So definitely worth the money when it's on sale! After you finish the game you get to play it again where you can choose chapers to complete your achievements and different endings, but considering the walking simulator it's probably going to be a run while watching a show on the other screen because I don't think I want to stare at the corridors intensely one more round.
Honest review: 50% or more of the game is Gray and Black, after I completed 100% achievements of it I feel I am suffering from Achromatopsia. Pros -Singleplayer -Horror -NO cancer speedrun achievement -Unlimited sprint -Linear Cons -Have cancer collectibles achievements; -Slides -Movie posters -Phonographs -Spyglass items -Mysterious Items TLDR: Nice
