Eternal Darkness: Sanity's Requiem is a psychological thriller epic starring the adventures of twelve characters that span across the world and two millennia. From time immemorial the forces of evil from beyond have been trying to manifest themselves in our world, and it is only through the actions of these forgotten heroes that the world has been saved from being overrun. Chapters take place in Ancient Rome, Persia, the Middle East, and modern-day Rhode Island. Throughout the game, the protagonists will have access to several weapons appropriate for their era, from bastard sword and gladius to flintlock pistol and shotgun.

The game features an involved Magick system, which allows different spells to be created through the combination of runes. These spells can attack enemies, dispel illusions, and heal both the body and items.

Eternal Darkness: Sanity's Requiem also has a unique feature called Sanity. If an enemy sees a character, their Sanity meter drops. When Sanity gets low, hallucinations begin to plague the character. Walls bleed, voices whisper from nowhere, the camera gets disoriented. Sanity can be restored by dealing a finishing move on a dying enemy, or with spells or some items. Aside from this, characters also have health and mana meters.

An awesome game. I never heard of it before I saw a Youtube video from a french Youtuber I like (Iconoclaste) that really made me curious. So I decided to give it a try and litterally dived into the game for the three consecutive runs. The graphics are really good considering the age of the game, the dark, creepy yet exotic atmosphere is awesomely executed, the english voices are very convincing, and the plot is directly inspired by H.P.Lovecraft's universe. The music is really good and fits each era and location really well. I had a really fun 37h total of gameplay trying to save the world from these Great Ancients and their ageless plots. Thanks Silicon Knights for that memorable piece of art!

Eternal Darkness est un titre qui détonne sur la GC, dont le catalogue au rayon "horreur" se borne majoritairement à la série Resident Evil.

Puissamment inspiré par Lovecraft (mécanique de santé mentale, livre maudit, combats entre des dieux bien plus anciens que l'humanité, dans lesquels celle-ci n'est qu'un pion...) on va revisiter les mêmes lieux à différentes époques, ce qui implique un arsenal qui évolue.

 

L'atmosphère est délicieusement pesante, la lutte contre les Anciens, désespérée, l'histoire, prenante.

Le jeu est original pour son système permettant de viser différentes parties du corps à distance ou en mêlée, ainsi que le grand nombre d'hallucinations lorsque votre santé mental est basse.

Bon point aussi pour le système de magie avec des runes, dont une secrète.

Le jeu en soit n'est pas très difficile (et devoir accomplir trois runs pour débloquer la vraie fin très courte, c'est un peu long) mais je le conseille à tous ceux qui recherchent une expérience atypique dans cette ambiance.

 

Autrefois, j'étais un imbécile. Puis j'ai vu par-delà le Voile...
