    Imagine a Saw game in a similar fashion as Heavy Rain. You switch between a character in their test and a detective trying to solve the case. There would be multiple endings, actual consequences for failing puzzles instead of just a game over screen, and real choices to make which change story outcomes. That's how I always envisioned a Saw game. Not the crap we ended up getting.

      That's like IIRC what Konami did do with Silent Hill 4: The Room (which I believe was supposed to be its own franchise or something but they assimilated it into Silent Hill, and you can see it regarding the kind of forced interplay between Silent Hill and Ashfield Heights).
      (Which is incidentally the opposite of what happened with Devil May Cry 1 insofar as I believe it was supposed to be another Resident Evil game, which you can tell from the door opening and closing sound effects and the "Do you want to use such and such item here Y/N" when the answer to the latter is obviously Yes etc)
      Addendum: Since I made the above comment I have been replied to several times about whether SH4 was supposed to be be a SH game or not from the beginning. I am not changing my stance on this issue but I am also sick to fucking death anymore of discussing this in the first place. Please see the tens of comments below before sending me a reply and just please leave me alone about this now.

    My older brother was one of the developers on this game. He worked for Zombie Studios after graduating art school in Seattle, developing this Saw game and another game called Blacklight. I remember he'd come home everyday depressed from work. Not only did he hate working on the game, he said his coworkers and the work environment was extremely toxic. Long hours, garbage pay, and horrible people to work with. After a year working there, my brother luckily moved on to work for Nintendo of America. But he said Zombie Studios was the worst place he's ever worked for and wasn't surprised at all when the company went under a few years later.

      I agree. I'm missing GOOD and original survival horror that isn't either all action or all atmosphere. No one, even when citing great games from the 90s, can seem to strike a good balance, or they ruin their atmosphere with too much gesturing to the audience. "Look how scary this is! Do you see? The man is a monster! Listen to his dialogue where he tells you he is a monster!" (The Medium).

    Imagine being a veteran detective and properly doing everything you possibly can to look into the case and saving many lives on the journey trying to catch a serial killer. Only for those rescued survivors to resent/hate you and at the same time throwing away the lesson behind surviving one of jigsaws traps nobody can help you XD

    • @derrickhaggard
      @derrickhaggard 9 месяцев назад +5

      According to the 1st game's plot some of them seem to think that Tapp's obsession with catching Jigsaw is why they're in this mess without admitting their own flaws and after Tapp frees them instead of being grateful the refusal to admit to their own flaws leads them to put the blame on Tapp because it's easier to find a scapegoat then admit that they caused Jigsaw to target them because of their own flaws most well-known example is David's wife as it's revealed during the segment where you rescue her that after David's murder due to that one bomb trap Jigsaw set up for the cops in the first film that she became a neglectful parent who would rather go out and party, and get drunk then take care of her son, and instead of realizing she was the one hurting her son emotionally, and mentally she would blame Tapp for her husband's death complete with her stating that everything that has recently gone wrong in the homelife of her, and her son after David's death was all Tapp's fault due to his pursuit of Jigsaw, and this dialogue between her and Jigsaw spells out her flaws when you find the TV.
      David's wife: "It's all Tapp's fault he's the reason why my husband is dead, why me and my son are suffering right now I'm doing what my husband told me to do and show nothing but hatred towards his killer."
      Jigsaw: "The dead cannot influence the living, and Detective Tapp is not to blame for your son's neglect that happened because of you because you chose to willingly neglect him, and become a raging alcoholic, and leave every night and day to head to the bar to get drunk."
      David's wife: "You're wrong it's Tapp's fault, my husband's murder, my son's troubling attitude they're all because of Tapp and when I get out of here I'll prove it I'll prove that Tapp is the one who should deserve to pay so my husband can get justice and me and my son's lives can return to normal."

    I noticed an interesting detail about the two games. The first Saw video game opens in a similar way to the first Saw movie (in a dirty, dilapidated bathroom) and Saw 2: Flesh and Blood opens in a similar way to Saw 2 in a basement with someone in a Death Mask Trap with a mirror showing their swollen, bleeding eye. The latter even has similar camera shots, starting at the light bulb on the ceiling, then looking around the room before stopping at the mirror that shows the victim’s face and the Death Mask, then zooming out to show the full body of the victim and the victim struggling to remove the trap, then cutting to the TV that shows the instruction tape that introduces the victim and explains why they’re here, what the trap will do to them and what they have to do to save themselves, cutting to photos of an x-ray that shows the key that’s been surgically inserted behind their eye and finally cutting to the victim looking at the scalpel on the nearby table that they will need to use. The only real differences are the victim in question (Michael Marks in the movie and Campbell Iman in the game) and the fate of the victim in the trap (Michael gives up and dies while Campbell powers through it and survives).
    I think if the Saw video game series continued beyond the second game, the other games would’ve followed a pattern of having similar openings to the films that have the same number.

The Wolf AmOnG uS (insert laughter) is probably my favorite of the lot but I've only completed the game once when I realized end variation is miniscule.

    I kind of like the head canon of the Riddler in the dark Knight movies being a kind of Jigsaw-like character.
    I guess enough fighting and nuclear explosions in that idea.

    Imagine a multiplayer saw game. You dont even need every trap to be multiple people, either, like imagine youre struggling in your trap and you look through a window of some sorts and being able to watch another player maneuver their way through their own traps

    Yeah, I totally agree with you here. The first Saw game was a pretty good, and they obviously put a lot of effort into it. There’s tons of things that tie in to the movies and a bunch of Easter eggs and references hidden throughout. Plus, whenever you’re caught in a trap and have to solve some kind of puzzle as quickly as possible before you get killed, it really gets your heart racing!
