Nice concept. Looks good. The fixed camera reminds me of Resident Evil.

Yoooo, they turned the best mission from Dishonored 2 into an entire game
Shame it's a horror

It's an odd recommend with a very powerful CPU and some not very powerful GPUs Makes you wonder if they are not over speccing the CPU or if it really is that intensive.

Don't see why this is so demanding on hardware from the vids. Maybe just poorly optimised

The concept of playing in two 'realms' seems really familiar to me. I can't remember exactly what it was. Maybe Dishonoured? There was a level where you shifted between two time zones, and they were both connected in a similar way.

Actually, there's a bit of 'The Vanishing of Ethan Carter' about it as well.

It was a key mechanic in Titanfall 2.

Preloaded and looking forward to it. Will be playing in my X.
