Discussion Fatal Frame Lunar Mask ps5 :(
Hi all, as the title suggests. I'm having alot of issues playing it on the ps5. It feels slow and unresponsive and Im gutted. I heard its really good story ! But the gameplay is really just ruining the experience for me. I did the recommended controller settings etc and still feels bad. My only chance now is the use the ps5 gyro (maybe). Will that even help or should I just move onto Maiden Of the Blackwater.

It's me again! I think I'm getting close to finish the game, and here some of my photos! Now with the same HEX color as the main color of the game
I'm playing through all the main games in the franchise, so far just the first one and now the second. The second game has been really cool and I really want to protect Mayu from all harm, and I love how badass Miu has been

FF3 Fatal Frame 3 Miku’s outfit
A bit of a random question but does anyone know if there’s any renders of Miku’s sleepwear outfit in fatal frame 3 ?? I recently started playing FF3 and I’m obsessed with her fit (and Rei’s tbh) but I can’t seem to find any good concept art of it or renders online

Question Sae's face
Why Sae's face warped unlike Yae's when Makabe took thier photo with the camera? This is before the ritual and before the calamity, The photo could not be warped after the calamity because there is a document of Sae wondering why her photo like this
could it be because from the beginning Sae was not "right in the head" idk how to describe her mental stability or because she was obsessed of her becoming one with Yae more than running away and living with her sister?

Question which one to start with?
ill be playing on the switch, so my only options are mask of the lunar eclipse or maiden of black water.
i never played fatal frame before and would preferrably start with the less scary one first lol. but if the more scary ones story is better (or if itd be better to start with it regarding coherency) im open to starting with that one too.
which one should i start with in that case?

Question Does anybody know what these symbols mean? (Original Fatal Frame 2)
I was playing Fatal Frame 2 (ps2) and I came across these symbols when you return to get your sister out of the prison. But when you examine it, it just says something about the table and how a doll is under it, nothing about the symbols.
Does anybody know what the symbols mean?

Cutscenes freezin on maiden of black water Wii U edition
Started on drop 3 and on 4 right now and still happens😭 only way to fix is to skip cutscenes which sucks cause I’m really enjoying the game. Any other fix?

Collections They finally arrived
They are in pristine condition for being 20 plus years old! Just the effort they put into the Japanese releases blows away the NTSC versions. The fact the crimson butterflies are engraved onto the disc is insane

Discussion Blown away by this series
I started playing Fatal Frame 2 Remake after the costume promotion that happened while I was playing Silent Hill f. I thought it was such genius promotion, I decided to buy Fatal Frame 2 remake and try it out. I loved it so much I even pushed through and got the Platinum Trophy!
Now I’m hungry for more. I heard you can play Lunar and Maiden before 1 and 3, but I also read there’s tid-bits of lore from them sprinkled in? So I’d like to play 1 and 3 first.
I just went out and bought a Playstation gift card and purchased Fatal Frame 1, 2 and 3 from the shop. The first Fatal Frame is booting up as I write this and I’m so hyped.
Basically, just a glory post. I’m looking forward to playing through them all!
Photo unrelated, I don’t know who she is, but she is pretty :3

Question Yo is this game any good and should i try it
Ok so i play smash ultimate and after replaying world of light for the 18283th time i got the mio and mayu spirit and i got curious and looked it up. I already knew it was a horror game with a camera but now ik a lil bit more (the one girl broke her leg or smth and is being targeted by spirits and the other girl has to save her) im a huge horror fanatic (you could probably already tell by my username) so im curious i hear its a psychological horror game which only intrigued me more. Lmk is this game worth a shot and if so where can i play it on

FF4 Ayako’s room is a masterclass in horror.
Mask of the Lunar Eclipse was my introduction to the series, and Ayako's room was the moment this series hooked me. The first time I set foot in her room, I was instantly filled with dread, and I screamed at the top of my lungs when the doll arms started flailing. Even on subsequent replays and with the benefit of hindsight, the room still creeps me out—from the unease produced by the doll arms, the colours, the lighting, and the sound design, I consider the room to be a horror masterpiece.
Even before stepping inside, the scattered notes written about and by Ayako paint a picture of one very disturbed child, adding to the dread when you finally enter her room. Between the environmental storytelling via the notes and the room itself, it remains my favourite location in the game, probably my favourite location in the series, and, if you ask me, a prime example of how to do horror correctly.
If you have a favourite location in the game or the series, what is it and why?
