Current Events > Phasmophobia is a great game, but...

(+) Yeah! (+)

Good lord it needs more content. I know it's early access and all, but the way I understand this game is that it sold like hotcakes and only one dude is working on it -- part time -- while focusing on another, unannounced project. The game could use a whole bunch of visual and map improvements, new AI behavior and models and basically just more of everything. Was surprised to see how little has been added since a rocket launch.

Phasmophobia has you and up to three buddies gear up for a ghost hunt from a variety of maps. The ghosts all have similarities but unique responses and behavior. You need to find three pieces of evidence while provoking the ghost, but not getting killed, and it feels like a "director" kind of AI ala Left 4 Dead. The part I didn't know about the game is that it uses in-game voice chat to listen to you. You can talk to the ghosts on a radio, ask questions on a quija board and even use their name to provoke them. Makes it super creepy with buds and almost impossible playing alone if you inevitably have an attic demon.
