Warriorrogue Posted November 13, 2013 Share Posted November 13, 2013 I was sitting next to a toy sword, and when the lights flickered, I picked it up instantly. Then I realised that it wasn't Warframe, and put it down sheepishly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cabadath5 Posted November 13, 2013 Share Posted November 13, 2013 Someone's been playing firefall lately lol Wuts dat? I was just making a reference to the fact that stalker ends up curb stomped every time(unless you're new to the game). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wiegraf Posted November 13, 2013 Share Posted November 13, 2013 (edited) Going on how he appears, I'd fully picture people waiting until the third flicker, standing in the middle of the room, with any implement able to do noticeable harm and wait for him to appear and whack him behind the head before he even gets up from kneeling. *poof* Stalker : "I've come f..." *WHACK!* One crisis averted!

Tiqalicious Posted November 13, 2013 Share Posted November 13, 2013 You're not imagining these things people. He's really coming for you... he's just taking his time in order to lull you into a false sense of security. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NalkorRN Posted November 13, 2013 Share Posted November 13, 2013 It might just be me but sometimes Ill be in class taking notes and the lights might flicker alittle then I just "he has found me in real life.." was Warframe made anyone else suspicious of flickering lights? Too bad for me flickering lights and strange noises make me weird out like in Call of Pripyat. You know, a game that instills fear whenever you hear a sound that isn't coming directly from you.

First freakout I had in S.T.A.L.K.E.R. : Shadow of Chernobyl was that one part where you get into a tunnel to get around a barricade and you come across the first creature which deals mental damage by 'sucking in' your view towards it. I'm not usually that jumpy but DAAAAAMN, that completely caught me off guard and pretty much set it stone that there's no need for much special effects or setup to make a good scare.

Dude when I got to the tunnel with the creaky spinning light, the first time you go underground, I uninstalled the game. I literally got so scared just from that creaky light that I closed and uninstalled the game. Of course I've replayed it several times since then, it's one of my favorite games. :) On topic: Whenever I drive under an overpass during the day I think it's the stalker.

I literally got so scared just from that creaky light that I closed and uninstalled the game. Of course I've replayed it several times since then, it's one of my favorite games. :) It's one of the reasons I liked STALKER : the game, visually, isn't full of special effects, explosions and outlandish creatures with wicked design. It has a very basic look, looks somewhat post-apocalyptic (the Zone, at least) and the anomalies are so mundane looking that they often go unnoticed until you're standing directly in one. Kind of like with Metro 2033, those games from eastern europe have a gritty, down to earth feel that makes them immersive because of how simple they look on the surface but then, you start to notice the amount of detail there is all over the place. Back on topic however : I don't really suffer from Stalker Syndrome... but I'd expect we all kind of think about it whenever we do have tension drops in the lighting somehow.

Pyromite Posted November 13, 2013 Share Posted November 13, 2013 Do you know what I really hate? Those times when lights flicked once, but no Stalker. That always makes me paranoid. That only happens on grineer ships, when I move from room to another, so perhaps it's a bug Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
