I never got to play F.E.A.R. I am a pretty huge horror fan. Is it worth buying a bundle for ?

If you like action and horror then you can't go wrong with the first one. I think it all goes downhill from there though, with maybe 1 or 2 of the expansions being O.K.

Just pirate it desu. It's worth 1 go at it.

It's more a shooter with paranormal intermissions than a horror game. A solid series in that regard but the later titles start to come up short between mishandlings and the focus-shift to console development.

Still, I would recommend it since the atmosphere was nice and some of the storybuilding was nice but I wouldn't call it scary.

Sure, if you enjoy going from one grey corridor to the next shooting the same enemy over and over again with the occasional jumpscare then try it out.

Fuck no, just play the first game and its DLC. Do not waste time on the sequels.

It's not remotely a good horror game as much as it just has the horror aesthetic.

The reason it's considered a classic is because it's a goldy FPS.

F.E.A.R., and Extraction Point is a must play. Perseus Mandate is ok, but not as good.
FEAR 2 and 3 sucks.
Don't go in expecting a horror game, though. But it's a good FPS

But dat shotgun though.

Only FEAR 1 + the expansions are worth it.
F2 & 3 suck.

considering that one guy has some of the best AI in any FPS, it's worth it

OP here. Will check out 1. How about Condemned: Criminal Origins from the same dev ? Thanks for all the help too.

yes

The bundle is like 5 bucks on fanatical and humble right now. Absolute worth it. You need to do some very easy tweaks to run it on modern systems with high resolution but that is it. Fear 1 + expansions is definitely worth your time. The rest is meh.

Condemned is also very good. Very unique experience.

Be sure to google the ‘logitech fix’ if you have a logitech mouse or keyboard. Otherwise you could get awful performance issues

Thanks user. That is a nice find.
Will look it up.

Fear 2 is mostly fine. 3 sucks

yes

All I ever hear about this game is to do with the AI, what's so good about it?

it came out during a time when shooter enemies still meandered around and maybe took cover on occasion. The AI in fear would attempt to flank and look for openings. A small step in retrospect but made quite the difference.

I think the lighting and shadow effects are more noticeable than the AI.

you could do what i did and download the demo and play 1 corridor probly 300 or more times because there's enough richness in the mechanics that you will still be thinking of new things to try and having fun scenarios happen

Fear 2 and 3 are so bad that it makes the first game bad retroactively.
