Finished it just now also. First three quarters of the game, great.

Matt, Mike, Emily & Sam survived.

The Wendigo's ruined the game for me. Was genuinely enjoying it a heap until they came into play. Quite disappointed to be honest.

Mike was my favourite.

Just read in the manual that if you have the PS4 camera plugged in it takes photos & video at certain points in the game (likely the jump scares) and stores them in a "cheap shots" section in the menu.
Would have been cool.

Finished the game. Had no issues with the don't move segments.
Only had 1 person die, through my own stupidity. Spoiler reveals who & how -
Matt. Died at the Deer section. I hadn't planned to aggravate them but then the target prompt came up so I thought I had to. Later reading the clues that you cannot harm any animal on the mountain
Great game. Had to look up what the bonus chapter/segment was as it just slots in seamlessly.
Edit. I found all the twins clues and got gold trophy but...
Josh still got attacked by a wendigo, his sister. Butterfly effect says they both recognised each other. He's still alive down there, as is shown in the final credits. Not sure if he can be fully saved. Doing some reading on thus ASAP.

What I don't like is there doesn't seem to be a save feature or some way to choose where to start. So if you screw up once you'd have to re play all the way through to try again.

I like that it tells you the percent of people who chose which option. I find it interesting when only 9 percent of people have made the same decision that I'm drawn to

If you stuff up a QTE or keep still, or even a choice, you can apparently immediately quit application via the XMB.

With the % display option, I'm glad I only read about that at the end. It isn't on by default. It MAY have swayed my choices if it was on, then I'd be blaming the masses if the choice was wrong. Not sure I'll turn it on til later play throughs.

I found it pretty interesting, I didn't always go the way of the masses, and the game is made to be replayed so I'll pick different choices the next time around.

Once you finish it once you can jump to a chapter to get the collectibles and different trophies, but doesn't really help for keeping everyone alive.

Some trophies are kill or save based. Might start again where I lost my first and save everyone.
 
Finished it on the weekend, and still think it's a great game, but knowing that overall 'killer story' is BS once the supernatural stuff kicks in, killed my need to replay straight away and for the scares too. And having read previous posts, the decisions made earlier don't seem to have a logical connection. So when the majority of deaths for me were a result of Wendigos with a rush at the end. Took away some of the gloss on the game for me.

Also for stuff like climbing walls where you need to press X, O, Square etc, can you actually get killed by not pressing them?

FWIW

Matt impaled on a hook by a Wendigo.
Got Ashley killed by opening locked cellar door by a Wendigo.
Jessica by a Wendigo. (think because of the cellar door)
Josh in the water by a Wendigo (again think because of the cellar door)
Sam because I didn't keep still by a Wendigo

Obviously saved Emily, Chris and Mike.

Still more impact by decisions than Mass Effect 3 ending :p

I feel exactly the same way about the game as you do as well

the wendigo stuff ruins it and makes the whole butterfly effect stuff up to that point seem......pointless

excellent concept , great game - story a bit meh... if they can build on this concept with a better story they will have another winner

i also felt that once the wendigos came i didn't have the same desire to play and finish the game..I could barely put it down before that point

still 8/10

100 % agree with this.

I feel exactly the same. Game was great until it was revealed Josh was the PSYCHO. Wendigo stuff was ****ing crap and has put me off playing it again. Was so psyched to go do it again when I still had no idea who PSYCHO was, when the Wendigo's came along I was like wtf, this is shit and it felt like a chore to complete. Also, the mines were ****ing rubbish.

the josh twist was brilliant , i had a slight inkling but when it was revealed it was a great moment in the game.... it just branched off in a very very poor direction from there.

Would have been better if it was just a real human killer psycho
Agree, again. Turned to crap after that.

Same on all points for me too, if it was gradual build to the wendigoes I could understand it but it went from slasher horror to supernatural horror in a chapter and a half.

Got a feeling they might have had pressure to alter the story by the censors/publishers etc and ended up caving in.

Lot of the areas being re-used too felt a bit cheap.

That being said, the graphics were great and the score was amazing so that made up for quite a lot.

Was watching a lets play of this. If
the wendigo crap didn't happen I would have bought this game tomorrow, as it is I'm not going to now.
Yeah it ruined it for me. Not even gonna bother with a second play through because of that.

Ok, I haven't played the game before but just have a question. I'l use tags just in case people are super spoiler sensitive.

Is it like Heavy Rain where you can get different stories due to different choices? Is it as interractive as heavy rain is? Cheers
Yes.
