About the technical issues, I've only experienced minor frame rate drops, but otherwise it runs at a solid 50-60 fps on High-settings on my GTX 1060 6 GB. It also seems like the developer is aware of those issues and have aldready pushed fixes out. So all in all a solid thumbs up from this guy! Expand

    Within the first 10 minutes of the game, I was hooked. There are always multiple paths you can take, and even though this is a "linear" game, it feels like you are in an open forest. There is no feeling of orientation, never have I felt so lost in a game, which really adds to the atmosphere.

    The gameplay feels good as well. The combat is simple but not annoying, and the interactions with bullet the dog are a lot of fun (yes you can pet the dog).

    The game could be better optimized, and some parts feel a little repetitive but overall this is a great game. It does a good job with this IP and you really feel like you are in the woods from the films.

    Blair Witch is a AA game like a prevous hit of the standard: Hellblade of Ninja Theory. Its much better now because I was playing of first Sunday of realising the game. Majority of bugs are fixed. The essense of Horror is of course very strong and its a first time when I play in open world horror.

    The dog is really a cool implementation, definitely helped me keep my sanity.

    And the horror is clearly there, it’s scary, tense and almost had a heart attack at some point in the game, and omg people are complaining like the game cost them $200, but no, the game will cost you $30 for a 5-hour story or you can choose the laggy, buggy and messy man of Medan who will cost you $35

    The game is really good and is clearly not the mess people are talking about, I'm sure that they had problems but expect some patches and it will be fixed, people are acting out of anger and giving the game 0/10 which is clearly not fair.

    What if Isaac Clarke has a Bullett on his side? Helping him to stay alert on resting corpses ready to jump on him? Open world games are still more and more and more popular. Whats I like the most is the music. Its like. Jason Graves low tonę /God of War groving. Graphic is great. Forest looks gorgeus.

    Felizmente e Infelizmente, Blair Witch é um otimo jogo de terror!

    Felizmente a aqueles que teram opotunidade de jogar, e infelizmente a aquelas que apenas vão ficar querendo, pois o jogo é muito mal otimizado, e isso é um fato. Meu PC com a RTX 2060 não conseguiu empurrar 1080p ultra 60fps nesse game, sendo forçado a jogar pro medium pra alcançar os 60fps [ai sim ficou liso]. Placas como a 1060 vão suar pra entregar mizeros 40 fps nas configurações mais altas, o que é vergonhoso visto que os graficos não são revolucinarios. Longe disso.

    Mas analisando o jogo, em si, essa é sim uma boa obra. O enredo te prende desde o inicio, lhe dando elementos aos poucos, que vão criando uma atimosfera meramente controlada. Quem tem a minima noção de como uma bruxa age, sabe muito bem que ela foi bem construida pelo simples fato de mexer com nossa mente e só. Não espere combates ou jumpscares forçados, essa não é a proposta do jogo.

    A gameplay é facil e inovadora em alguns aspectos. Acredito que poderiam usar um pouco mais o cachorro, visto que ele só é util meeesmo por metade do game [em "combates", achar objetos e caminhos], mas mesmo assim, amei jogar com ele. A interação com a camera é bem interessante e funciona bem. Algumas vezes o jogo vai te deixar confuso quanto ao que fazer, lhe fazendo dar diversas voltas e ficar perdido, quando na realidade, a solução estava na sua cara [aconteceu 3x comigo...]

    O jogo tem em media 4 a 6 horas de duração, o que é mais do que o suficiente pra mim. Se tem uma coisa que me deixa irritado, é quando um jogo não acaba quando deve acabar. Afinal, sejamos francos, ninguem gosta de ficar sendo enrolado. Se a gameplay não é cativante - como em jogos focados nisso [tiro, corrida, etc], porque prolongar o game pra casa das 10h?

    E, ah... apenas presenciei 2 bugs, nada demais. Enfim, a quem tem condições de rodar o game, está recomendadissimo!

    Juegas como Ellis, y a primera vista, no se nos da mucha información sobre el personaje. Ellis tiene su perro de compañía, Bullet, que descubrimos bastante rápidamente es un perro de policía que te dieron en un punto antes del juego, pero más allá de eso, nos queda preguntarnos quién es Ellis realmente. Tu tarea: Encontrar a Peter, un niño que está perdido en el bosque. Con su práctico perro policía, usted buscará pistas sobre el paradero del niño, con suerte conduciendo a su descubrimiento y aparentemente redimir a Ellis por una razón que aún no sabemos.

    Jugar a través de el es bastante sencillo al principio, y definitivamente se siente como un simulador de caminar. Eventualmente, te encontrarás con tu primer rompecabezas real, y aquí es donde comienza el juego real. Usted encontrará rompecabezas a lo largo del juego, y en mi opinión, estos serán las partes más difíciles del juego, muchas veces lo que debes de hacer prestar suficiente atención a tus alrededores, ya que si no estarás perdiento el tiempo corriendo en círculos y te dejará frustrado. Si prestas mucha ateción en el alrededor pronto te darás cuenta como resolver el puzzle, no es imposible resolver los puzzles si usas tu cabeza.

    Dicho todo eso, mientras jugaba a lo largo de las primeras 4 horas, me sentí intrigado, pero un poco aburrido. El elemento de terror no estaba realmente allí, ¿El juego era atmosférico? Sí, ¿Fue mucho de mi pensar que el juego se centraba en el terror? No. Para mi deleite, este "fracaso" cambia drásticamente en las últimas 3 horas del juego. El juego se vuelve extremadamente difícil de jugar en las horas finales, e incluso me atrevería a decir que era, a veces, casi insoportable. El factor psicológico se intensifica hasta los extremos en los capítulos finales, y me quedé muy sorprendido. A veces, no estaba seguro de si podía completar mi misión para terminar el juego esta noche. Honestamente se me metió tanto en la cabeza la sensación de miedo es extrema en los últimos capítulos.

    No voy a publicar ningún spoilers aquí, pero voy a decir que creo que debes de darle a este juego una oportunidad. Creeme que jugarlo hasta el final vale la pena. Aparentemente hay más de un final basado en al menos una opción en el juego, y tengo la intención de jugar de nuevo, haciendo la horrible elección de ver lo que le ocurrirá al final del juego. Pero no lo espero con ansias. La principal elección que tienes que hacer es algo que parece extremadamente inhumano si vas lo que yo consideraría que es la ruta "mala".

    Gráficos

    Los gráficos son exactamente lo que esperaría de un juego más reciente (2019) Si bien no son perfectos, estaba contento con lo que se presentó, y nunca sentí que el juego carecía en este departamento, presenta el terror graficamente de manera perfecta. Blair Witch es impresionante, no se puede negar eso. Todo el aura del bosque de Black Hills puede determinarse por la cantidad de luz y color del cielo. La transición es casi perfecta y profundiza la inmersión de los jugadores en la historia. Los enemigos son deliberadamente borrosos y a veces me preguntaba si realmente existían o eran sólo un producto de la imaginación de Ellis. Este desenfoque entre la realidad y la imaginación parece ser lo que los desarrolladores estaban apuntando y con los excelentes y hermosos gráficos, este objetivo se logró definitivamente.

    Sonido

    La actuación de voz es decente, pero encontré que el verdadero éxito destacado era la voz de las brujas en los capítulos finales. El tono psicótico era escalofriante, y sentí que me rodeaba, lentamente encándome y tomando el control de Ellis.

    *Este juego se siente como un cruce EXTREME entre Alan Wake y Outlast con el nivel de terror siendo más hacia Alan Wake. Me encantaron los dos juegos, así que este juego fue fácil como para mí.

    Mencionado todo lo anterior, este juego vale la pena para cualquier amante del terror. Me quedo con la parte final del juego es insoportablemente difícil de jugar, y gana en todos los niveles en este punto, como representan la casa abandona y los niveles dentro de la misma es perfecto y difícil de pasar. Representa el terror de una excelente manera.

    Even though the Blair Witch movies don't directly tie into this game, if you're a fan of said movies you will probably enjoy this game.

I say that because you're going to be walking around in the woods for a good part of the game. Like a lot. Yes you will find clues our encounter spooky things while exploring, and when this happens the game is super fun, but you will spend just as much time if not more trying to figure out where to go next while you pass the same landmarks again and again. So if you're looking for something fast paced this probably isn't the game for you. I personally really enjoyed my time with it but I'm also a fan of the movies and am okay with the slow pace at times. If you're on the fence about it you can watch my video below, it's only the first 30 minutes so it will show you what you can expect without spoiling too much. But if you rather go in blind by all means don't watch it. Either way, if you're a fan of horror games give it a try. But if you're a fan of the movies, well you know. You'll probably really like it.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Well designed for an indie game. Lost in some places, couldn't find the objective or what the game wanted me to do. Maybe the scenario was written like that, but waiting or searching for "something that you don't" know is pretty annoying. "Am I missing something, or should I just mess around a bit more for the hint to come". If the game was giving thrills in each moment you mess around the map, that would be better for a horror game. But the moments of the monsters were defined, and in other moments there was no reason to be afraid of anything. You just had to find your way through.

    Overall, I liked the game. I will continue playing the following games if so.

It isn’t an FPS, but a survival game, and it’s a fantastic one at that with a likeable protagonist and a decent enough combat system. The point is the story and the exploration and both are done perfectly, with the story unfolding superbly over time. It keeps you engaged consistently and keeps you wanting to learn more about what exactly is going on, like a solid survival game should. If you like exploring in a realistic setting, dogs, mystery, horror and puzzle solving, this is the game for you. You can tell this team put a lot of love into this game while trying to create something fresh and special. Highly recommend for any horror or survival fans. I personally loved Outlast, Outlast II, the Amnesia games, etc. and I believe this to be up there but looked over for some reason amongst horror fans. Expand

    The game adaptation of the 20-year-old “found footage” phenomenon could have turned out very badly. But thanks to previous experiences of Bloober Team, the finished product is more than a pleasant surprise. The game has its issues, especially in graphic design or in the puzzle section, but the result is excellent. [Issue#298]

    More a psychological thriller than pure horror game until the final stretch, Blair Witch won’t scare you so much as drive you barking mad (in both good ways and bad).

    Even though the prologue is unexciting and finale drags on a little too long, Blair Witch’s atmosphere usually hits the right notes. [Issue#241, p.38]
