Unreal Engine Parasite Echo [v0.0.15] [TheAesthetik]

I get where you are coming from, but I disagree.
So long as they are producing their own assets and not just copying the story and mechanics and whatnot from Parasite Inside, it falls into the category of "heavily inspired by" rather than "blatant rip-off." This isn't a bad thing in and of itself, although it could be.
Take Darksiders, for example. The first game plays like the lovechild of Zelda and, I don't know, probably God of War? It even has a bloody hookshot. It's still a good game, however, and stands on its own two feet.
Parasite Echo is, quite clearly, inspired by Parasite Inside. Hell, it's in the name. Parasite ECHO. Now whether or not this is a good thing or a bad thing, depends on whether or not they rely on Parasite Inside's well earned success to gain popularity.
If they just produce a crap shoot and/or lazy game, then yeah, sacrifice them to the volcano gods.
If they produce a solid game with an original story, mechanics, etc, then give respect where it's due. They are obviously giving respect to Parasite Inside with their name alone. It's meant to feel like the same genre, but give them a chance to show its a different game. Hell, Dark Souls/Demon Souls redefined a genre so much it produced the "souls-like" genre of games. Some of which are good, some are just lazy.
And don't say that a space rp with sex parasites is enough to call it a rip-off. First of all, that's a common enough genre in and of itself, and not an original idea by Parasite Inside. Secondly, don't insult Parasite Inside by saying that's all their plot and writing boils down to.
In conclusion, if you don't want to play Parasite Echo, cool, that's your choice. Before you decide to attack it though, give the producer a chance to prove themselves. Either good or bad.
Side note, just because someone disagrees with you, don't attack them or their intelligence. It makes you sound like a 12 year old, and 90% of the people on this site will simply ignore you and anything you have to say if that's how you present yourself.
This ends my rant lol.

I do agree the menu needs to be changed lol. I didn't bring that up because I found it an amusing parody. XD
Hi, i was looking at this and it does looks interesting, tho, i can't play because of this.
My pc despite be a disaster that runs on dust and broken dreams, it can runs UR5 games pretty well (i did just play yesterday Parasite Inside, main reason of why i got interested on this game) so... i can't figure out whats the problem right now. If anyone can put some light here and help me, i would appreciate it.
Thanks in advance.

Look, don't worry too much, the game is a very short demo, it doesn't even have combat or sexual scenes, it's just quickly getting to a point where you shoot a parasite that comes out of a vagina, very mediocre, that's where the demo ends.
I played this before Parasite Inside, and I can say with complete confidence that Parasite Inside is superior in every way.

yeah you right, besides, maybe this is one of those situations that just does requires the game to be in the oven a bit more to get more stable and run a bit more smoother or stable (along with extra content that moves out the demo a bit more further)

Are you running it in DX11 or DX12? Just wondering as I tend to have issues running on 12, but swap to 11 and it works fine.

Not gonna lie, the AI art sets expectations too high, then when you see the in-game model the disappointment just gets accentuated. Comes across as dishonest and it's a skip for me for that reason alone.
The model has been reworked, the face it’s not the same from the screenshots. Give it a try

Got the code for the door from Markus room,but I can't activate the console to use it,I am guessing its the door on the other side of his room ?
Edit : Nevermind,you have to start a new game,guess older saves are bugged,game shows promise,needs more H stuff in the next update,let's hope we see some.
I wonder if it will have a scientology angle like in Dead Space.
