I actually got a bunch of free DLC for BF3 like 5 years ago so I get to use it finally yay. Glad I did not buy Hydro Thunder several times when it went on sale

I hear good things on oxenfree. I hear mixed things on Forza 5

we'll see

....yea, hopefully October will be better

I got oxenfree a few months ago on ps4. I'm generally not crazy about VN's or horror games, but I adored oxenfree.
---

Oxenfree looks really cool
---

It has, hands down, the best writing and voice acting of teenagers I've ever encountered.
---

it's also not a VN or a horror game
---

I'm not familiar with either genre and am unsure how to classify.

Text-heavy, spooky supernatural character-driven adventure game with a range of endings dependent on player choices? That's a bit wordy.
---

it's a supernatural psychological adventure game. VN is a lot more wrong than horror, though.
---

oxenfree is indisputably a horror game.

"VN is a lot more wrong than horror, though."

and calling it a "horror" game when it's not scary may drive off a large audience of people you know full well who don't like scary games who could end up loving oxenfree

My understanding of VNs is that they are very character focused with minimal gameplay, and player decisions shape the narrative.

Also oxenfree was scary as hell, I was shaking in my slippers.
