Yea, I dont think its supposed to open doors either, but I think it can easily break through them, which is why they need to rotate several class D groups everyday, just to make sure something is staring at it at all times, IIRC. Just an incosistency he'll prob fix.

Anyway, I like how this is going. It was genuinely unsettling and scary without abusing shock horror, which is what every wannabe horror game does these days, with very rare, successful exceptions, like penumbra and amnesia, which make use of it, but sparingly.

The problem a lot of things in the horror genre suffer from is the creator trying too hard. Less is more in horror. You don't need fancy effects if you can just make your audience think about what is happening. If you do that much they'll do the rest for you.

Actually it can press buttons.You'd need to lock the doors.And it doesn't need to break any door either.It can just go through the vents.

The thing I always wonder with these things is why people don't just alternate blinking their eyes individually.

The thing I always wonder is how they manage to have such a short blink time. If you don't strain your eyes you can go for a long time without blinking. I've never even seen the upper limit.

Just try sustaining that for a long period of time.

Probably for the same reason most people can walk across a thin bar half a foot off the ground with ease, but would fall from the same bar if it was raised to a 100 feet.  Fear messes you up.

a)can't do it for a long time
b) I recall a testing log where they did this, and it was still able to move somewhat. just slower

Too scary to play alone ;_;

I get to the first gas room with the camera, but I just cannot get myself to open the door and go through.


EDIT: The Old Man is horrifying. I couldn't figure out what to do after he showed up. I just ended up running in a circle and got myself killed. His glowing eyes just get your heart pounding...

Looking back is what gets you killed. Run until you can run no more.

I kept getting stuck in dead-end hallways with doors that don't open ;_;

I think if I time my sprinting right and get him close to a wall, I can sprint around him. I'm not sure though.

I just had a weird glitch thing. Just after the start after I closed the 2nd door, as I turned around open the third one in the corridor I heard the noise it makes while moving and then noticed ONE OF ITS ARMS IN FRONT OF ME OH GOD. Apparently your line of sight is wider then you can actualy see, because its body was just out of my view in the right corner of my eyes.
So I need to turn and stare at it to make sure.

*Stares*
*Notices the lower part of its face*

NOPENOPENOPENOPE

So I turn around and run, but it seems it had glitched onto my model or something, cause it was def moving with me as I walked. I even blinked a few times and it did nothing. So I we were waltzing around in the scariest brohug in history and I'm all like LOL I WIN DA GAEMS NBD*crack*.

Apparently picking a gas mask up unglitched it :C

Dont know if this has been suggested before but do you think SCP-531 would work on 682?
