    Deadly Premonition is a wonderful bizarre hot welter of shit that should never ever be handled directly

  • MorivethMoriveth BREAKDOWN BREAKDOWN BREAKDOWN BREAKDOWNRegistered User regular
    Deadly Premonition is a very charming, weirdass game, that is real difficult to play. I love it, but if you wanna give it a shot prepare yourself for some severe jank.

    it is for the fun goofs

    but there's a lot of combat gameplay that is... outright bad, and you should read a guide to minimize that as much as possible

    i'd recommend the GB endurance runs as well if you're not big on the actual controls

    Deadly Premonition is the most wonderfully jank, blatantly Twin Peaks inspired game around. Like twice as inspired as Alan Wake and a number much larger than two times as jank.

    It is extremely janky to play but the characters are all so fucking endearing.

    Rather than just plow through the story mission after mission, I highly recommend engaging in all the weird stuff the game has to offer, like being able to track any of the towns people throughout their entire day. Run all the errands they ask you to do, because some of those sidequests give you items like the ability to fast travel or a flamethrower with infinite ammo, which kind of makes the combat trivial.

    the hard part about endurance runs and let's plays is that they're often like "well this gun has infinite ammo so i should use it" and it's like that gun has infinite ammo because it's the weakest one that you're only supposed to use when you're out of ammo please stop, you're making the combat take 4x as long

    there's so much of it

    like holy shit I tried, but even getting to the bits that let you shortcut past combat... requires too much combat

    yeah with the endurance runs I just skipped to the next non-combat bit

    I didn't mind the combat but it wasn't exactly thrilling

    Also there are like... maybe two enemy types in the game?

    But it is very funny to hear York constantly going "great shot! awesome! fantastic! good job!" when you're blasting a monster in the head with the SMG.

    Deadly Premonition opens with the protagonist simultaneously driving in the rain, smoking, operating a laptop, and having a deep discussion over a cellphone breaking down the core themes of Tom and Jerry

    The scene in the beginning of Deadly Premonition where York is talking to the old lady and the sound mix of the music is SUPER LOUD was fucking hilarious and @Janson and I were thoroughly amused AND confused

    DP has an item called, like, Can of Pickles or something and it lead me to question why pickles come in jars and not cans.

    It's not just *a* can of pickles

    it's a can of "The Pickles"

    So not necessarily pickles just something (or someone) called The Pickles.

    Ominous.

    Correction, Pinfeldorf misread the label and it's actuallya can of Don Rickles.

    Swery doesn't like pickles, so the fact that there's an easily-found infinite supply of pickles is actually a purposeful joke by him, because his thought was "if the players want to game the systems I have made, then they must eat pickles."

    It's weird that all of these Deadly Premonition opinions are simultaneously right, even the opinions that contradict each other.

    The riveting gameplay segment where the very meek Thomas asks you to help him find a certain key. It should be easy since it's on a keyring with a squirrel on it!

    WRONG! There are like SIX DIFFERENT ONES, and you will only know if the one you have is correct or not by bringing it back to Thomas, handing it over, and having him explain in the most disappointed tone, that this is a SIBERIAN Flying Squirrel, not a Southern Flying Squirrel like he asked for, you can tell them apart because the Siberian one is larger and closer to a land-based squirrel and jesus CHRIST THOMAS

    The diameter of Pringle cans is way too small.

    Two radiuses of a Pringle can is way too small.

    i did my first just last month! i tried some horrible new flavor, like sweet onion or some shit, ate 5 or so and thought I'll leave these until I'm drunk.

    forgot them in the cupboard and the crickets got 'em

    Thanks to these very forums, there is only one think I can think of now whenever pickles are mentioned and I will forever blame you and make you share my ennui.
