#Obake phasmophobia simulator

ILs (99% of the Phasmophobia runs) would become Head or Tails Simulator and wouldn't be interesting to play in my opinion.ĭubzyhs dubzyhs and Lemonmurder Lemonmurder like this. My overall opinion is that it would remove the mechanics of evidences which are the main gameplay of this game, and bring even more randomness to a game that already has a lot of it, and is barely speedrunnable because of random it is. If you can deduce what type of ghost it is early in the game, you can bring the items corresponding to their evidence so deducing is still a huge advantage for speedrunning. When running Small Maps/Launch Maps/All Maps, people would still reset until they get the ghost based on evidence for the first map anyway so it doesn't change much. The Mimic), and some would become busted, as Vision mentioned, everyone would reroll until they get that 1 ghost, and no one would ever try to find evidence anymore, which is kind of the point of the game in the first place.

Solo Banshee), some would still need every evidence anyway (ie. Guessing based on ghost powers would mean a few ghosts would become useless or garbage (ie. Guessing with 'minimal effort' is subjective, for example you could look at the board, call it 'The Twins' cause of the activity even tho it doesn't mean it's 100% The Twins, or you could hear a lot of thrown object as you enter, so you instantly leave and call it a Poltergeist even tho it could be any ghost that is more active than it usually is. There is already a category that requires deduction (2 evidences in Nightmare). IIRC the 'time spent in the ghost room' stat isn't actually based on the ghost room, but it's based on the time spend in the same room as the ghost, and there are ways to teleport the ghost to your current room so it would be meaningless. Jakeakatheone jakeakatheone, DarkPit59 DarkPit59 and 2 others Should that be allowed? Obviously not, because its not even true.Ī blanket statement of 'All runs must include all three pieces of evidence' is the quickest and easiest way to avoid confusion. I knew it was a poltergeist because it had to be.' That's something I used to hear a lot in public matches. 'I heard that a ghost throwing objects across the room very far is a poltergeist, so I chose that. But if that is then allowed, then it starts to get into speculative territory. Should that be allowed too? Both methods allow the player to know with 100% accuracy what the ghost is. If it hunts at certain times, we can know what the ghost is without any evidence. But saying 'you CAN use deduction to figure out what ghost type it is, but only in situations like X, however if you are also in situation Y it is allowed but only if Z happens first' is very complicated and starts to get into a lot of grey area.

#Obake phasmophobia update

The last update sent Phasmophobia's player count on Steam to new highs, so perhaps you'll have more folks to scream with this weekend as Halloween approaches.The main reason is because saying 'you must have all three evidence' is very easy to understand. It's a pretty lengthy list, so make sure you check it out before your next investigation. Several sounds should have a new fade effect, fingerprints only last 60 seconds, ghost hunt times have been changed, and the Parabolic can pick up a few new sounds. There's a ton of other small tweaks that shake things up in Nightmare. The Obake 'has been seen taking on humanoid shapes to attract their prey,' so it sounds like it can pretend to be one of your friends. The downside is, they've both got a temper and tend to react at the same time, so seeing two ghosts is a dead giveaway of what you're dealing with. The Twins mimic each other's actions and confuse their prey, and the journal points out their advantage is numbers since either twin can attack at any time. New otherworldly haunts join the investigation as The Twins, Onryo, Obake, and Raiju.
