Let's talk some fucking Fatal Frame. It's a bit of a niche series so I'm curious to know if anyone else has played them? Favorite game, favorite protagonist, favorite ghost? Do you have any hopes for the fifth game? It's impossible to have threads about it on /v/ now because they already assume it's censored and most of them don't care about the actual games, just half-naked girls. Fucking shame, because they're legitimately good. Been scaring the shit out of me for about ten years now.

Love the series, fav is prob 3 for both game and protag just because I like how spooky shit started seeping into her life I softmodded my Wii to play 4, but for some reason it just didn't grab me, but I'm still excited for 5

>>10971 I'm going to have to emulate 3 or get it on PSN sometime soon. After all the years, I still haven't played it or 4. I just replay one and two.

>>10966 >Favorite game 2.
>favorite protagonist Mafuyu Hinasaki.
It's sorta cheating but i don't like any of the girls.
>favorite ghost? Long Arms.
Motherfucker's horrible.
>Do you have any hopes for the fifth game? I don't know, i have no idea if the gameplay is good BECAUSE IT'S IMPOSSIBLE TO TALK ABOUT THE FUCKING GAMEPLAY ON ANY CHAN.
I've heard ZERO news on the gameplay itself so i have no idea.
I know it uses the wiiu pad as a camera but i don't even know if it has an alternate traditional control method where you can just use the pro controller.

>>11301 Fuck Long Arms for killing all those cute kids. Nigger ghost.
And check out some videos for V. It's been out for some months in Japan. It looks like it's a very much traditional play style for exploring and such, but the camera is now super smooth due to gyro controls with the gamepad. I'm not sure if you can play it with only the pro controller, but I don't see why you can't. I just hope the movement on the gamepad is smooth and not just a bad gimmick.

>>11382 I hope you can use the Pro.
The pad is pretty good for this game, it fits, but i'm a traditional survival horror fan, i'd still like to use a normal controller, i hunted ghosts in FF with a normal controller just fine for years, all i need is a button to bring up the camera obscura and i'm set.

Where should I start with the franchise? is there a way to play on pc?

>>11555 Emulation, I'd suggest playing in order, IMO each game slightly improved gameplay making going backwards feel weird.

>>11555 Emulation is probably your best bet. Don't know if you can even find the older games retail anymore. PSN does have 1-3 up though, and you can easily emulate on the Wii and Wii U without the region lock for the wii version of 2 and 4.

>>10966 I tried playing the original, and for some reason, I truly suck at the game. I can't get the hang of damaging the ghosts, most of my pictures do nothing at all to them.

>>11626 It's all about timing. Wait for the runes to form a circle, or gather more. The more runes that show up on the center, the more damage you get. If you get an action shot when they're coming right at you, you can deal crazy damage.

>>11644 How does one gather runes?
Anonymous 04/06/15 (Mon) 22:11:06 d53f1c No. 11674
>>11667 Just hold the camera on them for a bit. I don't know what the center of the camera is, the circle. Can't be assed to look it up. Just keep them in the center and you'll see blue runes start to appear. The more that show up = more damage your pictures do.

Loved the second game the most. I'm kind of surprised that my used copies were still worth around $40 in 2012. Was there any confirmation about us getting the rest of the games or..?
Anonymous 04/12/15 (Sun) 12:11:57 d53f1c No. 13142
>>13137 For Wii U or just getting reprints?
Anonymous 04/12/15 (Sun) 13:24:36 89f7a4 No. 13151
>>13142 Wii U. I've always felt that Wiis were a waste of time, but I'd bite the bullet for this game.

>>13151 I already bit the bullet for a Wii.
I'm just going to get the game and go to my friend's house and play it there with him instead.
Anonymous 04/13/15 (Mon) 01:42:07 d53f1c No. 13274
>>13151 Nope. No word on that, though since Nintendo owns like half of the studio that makes FF, they could easily do it if they see a market for it. IE If 5 sells more than 5 copies. You can easily hack the vWii channel to run isos of the wii version of FF2 and a english patched 4 though. So that's half the series there.

Fatal Frame is one of my favorite series, man. 3 is my favorite, since the whole switching characters thing is pretty nifty, and I like how you revisit areas from the first two games. Plus, as another anon said, juxtaposing the real and spirit world and having them intermingle with one another was an awesome addition that really made the game darker. Fuck, I love those games so much. Fatal Frame 2 is definitely the scariest however.
