Pre-game preparations:
There are a few options to be aware of before you even begin the game.
First off, on a sliding difficulty scale of dog to dog, this puppy is a
doberman, so it's a good idea to start on the normal difficulty setting.
Be aware though, that the game has three slightly different
player-selected ending confrontations, one of which can only be chosen if
you've played the game through on the hardest setting and done "very well"
by the game's standards - whatever they are. There are also a couple
"failure" endings, one of which is actually cooler than the "success"
ending.
Fear Effect plays similarly to Resident Evil or Dino Crisis, with a bit
more sophistication for you Euro-trash out there. You alternate between
three different characters, none of whom ever push a single crate, an idea
whose time has definitely come. In addition to running and shooting, your
character can crouch, sneak (walking while crouched - nice and quiet),
turn quickly around, and dodge in four directions. One character (Hana)
even displays the ability to change clothes, though you don't get to
control this. Maybe in the sequel...
Enemies:
The enemies in Fear Effect don't sit still. In fact, they meander about
like Mr. Magoo with a fistful of Viagra. This means that in many cases,
the enemy counts in this walkthrough are arbitrary - if we say there's
three guys outside a door and you only kill two, take a few steps forward
and you'll probably find the third guy around the corner. Or maybe we just
can't count.
Controls:
Mastering your characters' basic moves is the key to becoming successful
at Fear Effect. Experiment with the various preset key assignments until
you find one you are comfortable with. We recommend choosing the default
setup, which assigns Run, Crouch, and Evade to the trigger buttons.
However, it took us the better part of disc one to figure out we liked
this configuration best, so you may have your own preferences.
Whatever layout you choose, be sure you can hold down
the evade button simultaneously with both the run and crouch buttons. This
will make you a much harder target for all those nasty, unreasonable folks
who would rather kill you themselves than wait to be rid of you by natural
causes. Which is pretty much everybody.
