Well after i downloaded it form steam, I waited until nightfall!
i have 2 big studio monitors, cranked all the way up and closed door/dark/perfect setting to get freaked! I live out in the forest and have my window open, so i can get some IRL sound fx like branches cracking or wind blowing in a scary manner
I know it was going to get scary, but i also love to dig in deep in a game like this, very enjoyable. urging to explore more and get to know the story better kept me going, I played 7 hours straight with pause for dinner. then the night after i completed it (maybe 3 hours)
