[QUOTE="Admin, post: 58249, member: 1"] Dead Space remake's technical director has admitted that he struggles to play the game outside of daylight hours because he finds it too scary. As reported by [URL='https://www.gamesradar.com/dead-space-remake-dev-i-cant-play-it-with-headphones-at-night-its-too-fing-scary/']GamesRadar[/URL], technical director David Robillard told PLAY magazine in a recent interview that when he plays Dead Space remake at night, he can't use headphones because the game is extremely immersive and becomes too terrifying of an experience. "When I'm playing it at night, I can't play it with headphones," he confessed. "It's just too f***ing scary. Just the amount of realism and, again, atmosphere. Not just visually, right? In the way we handle sound, ambience, effects, having systems that will try to spook you." Dead Space has been rebuilt from the ground up in EA's Frostbite engine, with Assassin's Creed Valhalla game director Eric Baptizat at the helm alongside creative director Roman Campos-Oriola, who promised to deliver "new assets, new character models, [and] new environments." The [URL='https://www.ign.com/articles/dead-space-remake-team-showed-diehard-fans-the-game-every-six-weeks-in-early-development']game's developers consulted diehard fans[/URL] to help keep them on track with their goal of staying faithful to the vision of the original game while also crafting new gameplay content and improvements, though Robillard admits they have elevated things to a whole new level.
