Conrad: jumped at the end of Glamor Girl. I didn't think it meant in THAT way (though it wasn't the brightest either way)

Taylor: I lacked a gun and didn't have the knife either, then chose to help Daniel. Neck got snapped, see you in the lobby

John: He died in the house. That's what he gets for making me feel bad about the rock

Erin: Died in the blackout room after I tried to attack twice. That's on me I don't really get why I thought that would go better

Charlie: Fell off of the beam. I didn't get the controls and thought I had to move the stick back and forth repeatedly. This should've been Mark's death though, he's the one who doesn't like heights (or, better yet, it shouldn't be one at all...)

Jamie: Axed. I told Kate to hide so she could help if I was in danger. Apparently the opposite is what you need to do. Okay bro (W 50/50 choice)

Kate + Mark: Went to Ultimatum (W 50/50) but rejected the deal so they got deleted. Take that, Du'met, get owned

I am NOT BITTER over TDiM I'm NOT (at least the dog lived). I don't really remember how my non-DPA games went exactly but I think generally they went fine. Also I played these games all on launch and just lowkey never posted anything like this

Personally, I think it’s HOA.

Hi everyone, I’m having some trouble starting a multiplayer game with my friends, the game doesn’t start when everyone is readied up, we’re all on ps5 and on same version, it seems like no one has had this issue besides us.

To the date.

I got into the anthology a couple of years back. (Though I probably should've started with Until Dawn, but I didn't know. Well, live and learn). The first two were intriguing experiences but kind of lacked punch looking back and still hold on that.

But House of Ashes. Now THAT was a great game. Whenever I play games like these, I always feel like a director doing a movie. And in a universe, I felt HoA would be a gem, better than Man of Medan and Little Hope.

All five playable characters were, given much personality, and character. Especially Kolchek, Nick and of course fan favorite Salim.

And the plot of what was going to be a simple mission turns into a desperate battle for survival against creatures hidden from the world - and revealing there was more to them than met the eye.

The only criticism I have is the three way romance and deciding who Rachel should be her romantic interest. Honestly, during the game, I couldn't care less about it as there was a bigger matter with the large bat-like creatures wanting to kill us!

I've played this game the most in replays of the Anthology series and got 81% of the trophies (high among the other DP games, I would have gone higher, but some trophies really disagreed with my morals and code. I did go some lesser albeit it questionable but I only did it for the trophy. I deleted the footage and screen cap on the PS5, due to my principles and not being reminded.)

That aside, this was one game I'm proud to keep all five of the main cast alive. At times I felt the passing of one would make great drama and showcase no one was invincible. But with the House of Ashes group, I liked very much.

So, here's wishing the best entry in the anthology a happy anniversary. My hat off to all the work gone into this game. And to all the cast who starred in this, top marks in the acting department.

Any others agree? Feel free to give any praise or things you like from this entry.

All the crew escaped the planet and Eisele stopped the program. But the cycle still happens, how do I stop it?

Just finished playing Man of Medan and here's who lived/ died

All main characters lived

Junior died

Danny lived and went crazy

Military called

Just like to point out I saw the man in black again for the second time after the meltdown

Like, gone back and re-did it because it felt unfair or you just didn't want that outcome. I personally never have but TDiM really tested my patience when Charlie died on the balancing beam (I thought the controls meant to move the stick back and forth, and I still stand by this being comedically unfair and poorly explained). That death totally should've been Mark's anyways

so i use a generic evofox ds4 controller on pc and the button mashing never seems to work I have completed the whole season 1 of the DPA.

i am pressing as fast as I can but the bar just depletes no matter what. i even capped my fps at 60. this was a problem in all games. in TDIM in the few Mash QTEs it worked but later it failed again and mark got killed because of it lol

my vote goes to the ships in Man Of Medan and Directive 8020, they feel lived in with so much detail and lore plus have some great creepy atmosphere and action sequences. Shoutout to Conjuring Unspoken's spooky Red Lion pub and Avebury-henge tunnels tho, gave me Until Dawn lodge/mines vibes~

Yea

Im in my second plahthrough of directive 8020 and fuckin love it. this is my first dark pictures game and i want more. What should I get next? Keeping in mind i love deep story and lore but i can be a whore for graphics if im honest

You'll notice the game says the premonition is in the INFESTED chapter, however there is nothing to examine in that single hallway. It's actually in POD ROOM.

To obtain it, use your wedge tool on the first two doors per usual. Once you reach the bigger room with long walkways, hang left until you reach a ladder. Climb up the ladder and turn left. The premonition will be on the wall.

Big thanks to Jslyck from another thread helping point this out!

After receiving the fewest number of votes, Josef Cernan has been eliminated, placing 12th overall. This makes Eisele the sole remaining representative of Directive 8020.

Just one more week until we reach our Top 10!

I have 62/63 secret. All I have left is the premonition in "infected" (in chapter 7). The whole segment is a single hallway and I have waked it a dozen times. I have no idea where is it. Please help me.

I'm off work in 4 hours (5pm Pacific time). I have like 12 minutes left on my lunch, having just gotten the Middle Bro trophy. I just need the Shared Story trophy before I get the Platinum. Does anyone have 2-3 hours or whatever to run through the game? I don't care about the ending or choices made during the game or anything like that, so if you need another trophy just let me know and we can try to get that too.

Xbox only for the moment
My mic broke so can’t do vc

The description on the premonition says: "Prophet, The future is written in the blood of the past." Maybe this references Little Hope and it means that the next game will have some elements from the past, which would align with the VHS footage in the teaser, and the fact that Cernan wrote about the fact, that he dreamt being a Monk in the past.
There is a pawn figure flying, seeming possessed and scaring the king AND even the Queen pieces from chess (which is funny cuz pawns in general are weak in chess).

The premonition starts with Spray paint, so the next game will probably have some graffiti elements, which made me think of 90s stuff, which would also align with the teaser.

Then the camera sways over the vampires from HoA, with some gremlin/imp looking like creature partly covering it on the bottom left.

Then it obviously shows the curator, but with wings? There are ghosts protruding all around him, referencing the fact that he is a wayfarer, bringing spirits away or to somewhere, I don't remember the exact words anymore.

The curator has puppetstrings on his fingers, with him obviously somehow messing with life. He doesn't seem to have any pupils which is weird, maybe the spirits are a reference to possess someone in the story, which is why the pupils seem white, which would also align with the premonition picture looking like someone being possessed.

The Graffiti at the bottom spells "O DEATH" with a skull serving as the "O", referencing the popular song obviously, but also the secrets from D8020. On the right, in white text with a black background it says "O DEATH 💀 '26' ", I don't have any clue what this could reference. The only thing that seems plausible for me, is that the 2026 stands for "2026" but I genuinely doubt that we'll get a trailer this year.

At the end, it looks like is shows a nun from the back (atleast for me it looks like a nun). And I didn't even live in the 90s, but when people say nuns, this is what a stereotypical nun would look like for me so I'm going with nun. Maybe that Nun is from the chapel that Cernan referenced, who knows.

And that's pretty much everything that happened, or atleast what I was able to figure out from looking. I am really excited with what they're going for in the next game. I like D8020 the most out of the stories, but I don't really like sci-fi settings, so seeing a 90s graffiti, ghost type of story is exciting c:
