   This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Me sorprende que un juego así de increíble haya pasado tan inadvertido, tanto por los usuarios como por la prensa. Soy fanático de los juegos de horror y puedo decir con certeza que VISAGE es uno de los mejores juegos de horror que he jugado en está generación. VISAGE es un juego survival horror muy difícil, después de una introducción muy perturbadora, debes explorar la casa donde vives y desenmarañar la trama, el protagonista sufre de miedo a la oscuridad, cuando permaneces en lugares oscuros comienzas a perder la cordura (Representada por un cerebro), cuando esto ocurre suceden hechos paranormales, para evitarlos, debes medicarte y permanecer en la luz para que tu cordura regrese, a medida que avanzas van sucediendo sucesos paranormales de manera aleatoria que dificultan está tarea. En el juego no hay combate, sólo debes huir de las diferentes entidades que enfrentas, mientras vas resolviendo los muchos puzzles que el juego plantea.
   
   Desde el primer contacto, el juego va construyendo un miedo genuino, miedo que va creciendo poco a poco, hasta calar en lo más profundo de la mente, este juego te hace entender de verdad lo que es el terror psicologico, todo el tiempo te sientes abrumado por una sensación de inquietud, la cual el juego logra con su excelente ambientación, escenarios fotorealistas y sucesos paranormales que ocurren de manera aleatoria durante la partida. No recomendaría jugarlo en un día que te sientes mal, ya que el juego es bastante abrumador con las sensaciones que puede transmitir. Recomiendo jugarlo de noche, solo y con audifonos, yo lo jugué en un televisor con full array y va genial.
   
   Como puntos negativos, son 2, el primero se relaciona con el inventario, su gestión es nefasta, ya que si tienes el inventario lleno y quieres tomar un ítem, debes soltar el ítem que llevas en la mano para tomar el nuevo, lo cual a la larga se hace un poco molesto, recomiendo siempre dejar por lo menos 1 espacio vacío en el inventario para que esto no ocurra, creo que está gestión se pudo haber llevado mejor, el primer contacto es difícil, pero después te acostumbras. El segundo punto negativo, es que hay un nivel en particular, que no te dan objetos para iluminar y es demasiado oscuro, por lo cual no podía ver mucho, tuve que subir el brillo a la tv, igual podríamos decir que hay ciertos acertijos complicados y un poco rebuscados, si eres poco observador quizás quedes pegado mucho rato en un lugar, recomiendo revisar hasta el último cajón y no te quedes pegado en un acertijo.
   
   Para finalizar, sólo diré que recomiendo este juego ampliamente para los amantes del survival horror, es un juego muy destacable que merece mucho más reconocimiento, por otra parte, si eres una persona poco paciente, que se frustra rápido o que no soporta sensaciones muy fuertes no te recomiendo VISAGE.… Expand

The visuals, sound effects and overall atmosphere is just simply astonishing and eerie. This won't be a disappointment, if you have a true appreciation for horror games.
   
   The menu handling could be better but this is just a very small issue in my opinion. Take into consideration, there's 1 level designer, 1 gameplay programmer, 1 sound designer, 1 composer and finally 1 3D character modeler.
   
   This is a fantastic masterpiece and it will set new standards for upcoming horror games. It's beautifully designed and you recognize the heart they put into this.
   
   Highly recommended!… Expand

To sum things up briefly:
   
   1. Great graphics and sound design.
   2. Some of the most awful inventory management I've ever had the misfortune of experiencing in my years as a gamer.
   3. A weird color filter, resulting in bad black levels that don't do my OLED TV justice.
   4. Having to constantly run back and forth to light switches because a supernatural entity keeps turning them off.
   5. Getting killed instantly, forcing you to restart from your last save over and over again, because a ghost materialized out of nowhere right next to you.
   6. Wandering around aimlessly in a giant house looking for the one small clue that will let you progress to the next part of the game, where you'll have to look for the next small clue in that giant house.
   
   If you, for some reason, feel like one or more of the things mentioned above seem nice, consider giving Visage a go. If not, stay away.… Expand

   Heavily inspired by P.T., and occasionally outright presenting the same content, Visage places the player in a large house filled with narrowHeavily inspired by P.T., and occasionally outright presenting the same content, Visage places the player in a large house filled with narrow corridors, unnerving sightings and paranormal events. Some of these events are randomized, which on paper sounds amazing but it ends up being more annoying than terrifying: picture yourself turning on a light switch to explore a room and then having it turned off every other time: it's effective the first couple of times, and it grows very old very quickly. Scares are guaranteed, though, as the game makes excellent use of audio and visual effects to put you on edge. The house feels truly invaded by a presence, and furniture and clothing and shadow play make for outstanding nightmare fuel. I'm no stranger to first person horror games myself: played my fair share of titles such as Amnesia, Slender Man, or even System Shock back in the time, and even still Visage gave me a lot of goosebumps and got me hyperventilating many times. So, if you are into these sort of things, you might want to give it a try. Still, be warned that some technical issues bring the whole experience down. First and foremost, inventory management is overly complicated and is also married to a counterintuitive control scheme. Second, be prepared for a lot of wandering around. Objectives are seldom clear, and I found myself lost inside the house for a couple of hours before I gave up and checked a walkthrough, only to find that I had to interact with a single object to progress the plot. A single object, shown during a cutscene, in a massive house. Granted, exploration plays a major role in horror games, but I feel that the game could work better ways to communicate its ideas to the player. It doesn't help that the house shifts, and you have to find that one affected door or room to make progress. And if you missed it, tough luck, keep wandering around. If this sounds like it's right up your alley, then you won't be disappointed. Personally, even though I really wanted to like this game, I grew bored after a few hours.… Expand

   I made a metacritic account specifically to express my sheer frustration with this game. Don’t get me wrong, it’s beautiful and detailed. ButI made a metacritic account specifically to express my sheer frustration with this game. Don’t get me wrong, it’s beautiful and detailed. But the inventory system alone has made this game unplayable. I’m happy to dive into a narrative heavy walking sim game and I’m sure Visage crafted an interesting story. It’s a shame I won’t get to see how it plays out. Between getting caught in a death loop while laboriously trying to consolidate my inventory and running into a number of bugs, I’m throwing in the towel on this one.… Expand
