Call me pumped. I can totally get behind Pathologic HD, particularly if it makes the latter half of the game comprehensible.

It's not the graphics that make it bad, it's the translation.

I'm assuming they'd be redoing the translation with it. If not, why bother?

I never got past about day 2. XD
I was running around screaming like a little girl as I tried to get across town without dying, armed with only a scalpel.

This game REALLY needed a remake anyway.

It isn't like "The Void" where the controls and gameplay matched the tone (Slow and lifeless)

Good game with deep and interesting story.
Finished it as Bachelor and Haruspex and stuck in day 4 or 5 as Devotress. Quite a good memories. Especialy with "hidden" endings".

I'll definetely try it, when they will make a remake.

Would this game stand up if any of you had lived through a epidemic?

The game barely feels like it takes place in a epidemic personally...

Well this is supposed to bring up imagry of the black plague and while I understand personally that you are immune (as common with horror protagonists they TEND to be immune to whatever disease is involved) and yet everyone just sort of stays inside all day, they move about, and there is very little in the streets.

The town just seems vacant, no burning houses, no nothing. It just gives me the feeling that this town isn't suffering from any real disease. Sure you find a few people and burned houses, but nothing in front of your eyes.

Which honestly at first I thought was the point... that there was no disease and your immunity is just what people are lead to believe since you are unharmed.

You aren't immune though, and that's a running problem. You need medicine to stave off the infection just like anybody else. To me, the town definitely felt like it was dying of disease. Not anything visibly violent like small pox, but something that rots it from the inside out.

You didn't play long enough to go out after dark.

Go out after dark, then tell me there's nothing going on in the streets.

They don't really count.

It is like going out after dark in Deadly Premonition.
