DO NOT BUY The Texas Chain Saw Massacre The Game

Hello, welcome back to a new video. So

recently I've been playing The Texas

Chainsaw Massacre on PC, and as an avid

fan of horror games, I knew I just really

wanted to play this. But unfortunately,

so far it's been kind of bland, boring,

uninspiring, and lacking in a sort of

luster. So this game is pretty much

exactly the same as Dead by Daylight,

another horror game where you are split

into teams of 2. One team are the killers

and the other team are the victims trying

to escape the dungeon or the house or the

place, and then the killer has to stop the

victims from escaping and track them down

and stop them. Basically, that is how the

game functions. It's kind of like a very

elaborate game of cat and mouse with a

team of players as the cat and a team of

players as the mouse. And you're in this

big area, this kind of house with multiple

levels. You start off in the basement

level, you got to escape the basement

level, get up into the house outside, and

then try and figure out how to escape the

area that you're locked in. And it's the

job of the killers to try and prevent you

from escaping. And they can place traps,

and they could hear you if you're too loud

and you make too much noise. Then you'll

show up on the screen as like a yellow

outlined character, and they can easily

track you down. Unfortunately, the game

kind of fails for me at being scary or

intense. It was a tiny bit scary the first

time I played it, and I was in the dungeon

trying to find out how to get out. But

after playing it for more than 20 minutes,

this kind of wore off, and the scariness

or the intensity or the feelings of

feeling trapped just kind of fizzled away,

and then I just kind of felt bored for the

rest of the game because basically the

gameplay loop is very boring. It's just

kind of like you're trying to make your

way through a labyrinth and you're trying

to pick up items like lockpicks, health

kits, any kind of tools you can find that

will help you. But when you're rummaging

through the loot boxes, you have to do it

slowly, otherwise you make noise.

Basically every action you do will make

noise. Depending on how slowly or how

quickly you take— you perform the action.

And then there's the grandpa, some old guy

sitting in a chair upstairs who somehow

has the magic ability— they call it sonar—

somehow has like a magical ability to be

able to track you down if you make too

much noise, which I don't really

understand. He must have superhuman

hearing. And then he marks you on the

screen for the killers to be able to find

you. So you got to be really slow, really

slow-paced. You can't rush it, otherwise

they'll just find you quickly. And it kind

of makes the game feel very slow-paced and

very boring. And it just feels like

there's not much to the game as a victim

apart from just crawling through holes,

trying to find the way out, picking up

health kits and lockboxes whilst you see

them, when you see them. And if the enemy

gets near you, which is quite obvious to

tell that when the enemy's near you, this

big yellow flash appears around the edges

of the screen, which I think is kind of

silly that they put the yellow indication,

the visual indication on the screen of

when the enemy is getting near to you,

because it's kind of obvious when they're

near to you. You never feel surprised or

shocked when you turn around a corner and

they're there because you know they're

there. You can see the big yellow flash

around the edge of your screen. So there's

no jump scares or any moments where you're

like, oh my god, I didn't know they were

there, and you get frightened. So there's

nothing scary or frightening about this

game because you know where the enemies

are. Every time they get near to you,

it's pretty obvious they're near to you,

especially the chainsaw guy because you

can hear his chainsaw. And it's kind of

cool, you can just hide in the grass and

they can't see you. So that's kind of an

interesting part of the gameplay where you

can use the scenery to hide in the grass

and stuff like that. But it's not really—

it kind of removes or takes away the fear

factor when you don't really get jump

scared. I mean, it would have been really

cool if you were sneaking around, you

entered a room, turn around the corner,

and just Bam! The enemy was there right in

front of you or coming around the corner

at the same time and then just scares you.

But that never happens because you always

know exactly when the enemy is nearby,

which I think kind of ruins part of the

fun. Once you get outside, you have to

find components like a fuse box to open

the gate so you can escape. But the area

is quite big and it's quite hard to find

where this stuff is, and I honestly just

kind of got bored walking round and round

circles around this courtyard or this

farmyard. Whilst being chased by this

chainsaw man. I don't really find it very

fun. I just found it kind of— either it

was very boring or kind of frustrating. I

never really felt like, oh wow, this is so

much fun, I'm having so much fun. And even

when you play as the attackers, the

killers, it's not even that fun either

because all you have to do is just run

around in circles until you eventually

bump into one of the victims. And because

it's a team player game online, there's

like 4 victims, and there's quite a lot of

the victims considering how small the map

is. And then you'll easily bump into some

of them just running around in circles.

You can lay some traps, make sure stuff is

locked, and then when you find them,

they're kind of helpless. They can't

really do much to fight back. You just got

to make sure that you keep on them, you

attack them. It doesn't take— I mean, it

takes a few hits until you actually take

the victim down, so they do have an

opportunity to run away. You can't just

one-shot kill them. I also encountered

some performance issues with the game.

For example, whenever the grandpa

activates his sonar, for some reason the

entire game lags, and I found the game to

be not entirely buttery, buttery smooth,

even though I'm running this game on a

17-inch Razer Blade Pro gaming laptop with

RTX 3060 graphics card and 16GB of RAM.

So I thought my computer should easily be

able to handle a game like this, but Seems

like I still struggle with the performance

and the frame rates a little bit. I had to

turn the graphics down to around medium to

get decent and reasonable FPS, but I

wasn't really impressed with how the game

ran or felt. Like, when you move the

camera around, for some reason it makes me

feel sick. It doesn't really feel very

smooth or fluid when you're moving the

camera around and panning around, so I

don't really like how the game feels and

moves, and I didn't really find the game

to be very fun anyway. So unfortunately,

I don't really feel like I can recommend

this game at the moment for its current

price point. I don't really feel like the

game offers a lot in replayability. I feel

like maybe you have a few goes on a few

levels, try victims, try the killers, and

then that's it really. There's not really

much to keep you coming back to the game.

I don't really feel motivated or

incentivized to play the game. I don't

really feel like a lot of the game is

skill-based either. I feel like it's a lot

of random luck, like trying to run around

in circles trying to avoid the enemy. It

feels a bit like playing Pac-Man, and I'm

not really a fan of that kind of gameplay.

I don't really find it exciting, and I'm

not really interested in running away or

chasing. I don't really want to play like

a cat-and-mouse game. So unfortunately, I

have to give this game a 6.2 out of 10.

The game looks okay, like I really

appreciated my main character, or most of

the main characters are like cute-looking

girls with nice backsides. And I really

like the way they bend down and crouch

whilst they're walking because it gives

you quite a nice view. But apart from

that, I don't really see many things about

this game that I really liked. So yeah, I

don't think I'd recommend it. And thanks

for watching. Goodbye for now.
