Not only is a good chunk of the chapter spent backtracking, but it also has some of the most infuriating moments in the game. Tear Jerker: All but one of the endings.Nightmare Retardant: In co-op mode, a good deal of the horror factor can be lost after the first time you beat one of the terrifying monsters to death with nightsticks.Simon breaks down in public declaring his love for her, to which she seems mildly annoyed at best, not even paying attention at worst. The flashback with Sophie after her suicide and the Carcass fight is hard to take seriously.It sounds like someone stepping on a mound of pudding. While the female enemies stabbing themselves in the throat after you kill them is disturbing, the squishing noise the action makes is not.And even before the end, the acting has its moments. By the time the game was in its finishing stages, he had done other jobs and, thus, gained experience, making the acting progressively less narmy as you play the game. Simon's voice is an interesting case, in that when the actor playing him joined the project and recorded some of the lines that are heard early on in the game, he was very new to voice acting, and his delivery was pretty iffy.Narm: The English voice acting, Simon's in particular.It's a Boring, but Practical item, allowing the player to see in the dark during Chapter 4 and Chapter 6. It allows the player to see without a light source needed, and unlike other light sources it stays with the player throughout the whole game (even after Simon's Bag of Spilling moment). A small-scale one, but the Gas Mask the player earns after beating Doctor Mode.until you combine it with the aforementioned Camera, practically making even Nightmare mode an easy experience. The only downside is that most enemies can get at least one hit in before you kill them. It deals 55 damage in one swing, enough to kill almost every enemy in one hit up to Normal mode, and swings incredibly fast. Once you do unlock it you have the strongest close combat weapon in the game. Like the Camera you don't get it until the New Game+, and it requires finding it during Ending 5. It doesn't help that you get the camera by beating the game in under 2 hours 30 minutes, which only requires you to not get lost or leave something behind that you'll later need. The only downside to it is a bug where the camera will occasionally not freeze enemies, which is fixed by shutting the game down and booting it back up. Skilled players can eventually learn to abuse these attributes of the Camera to be able to play almost the entire game without needing a firearm, making Nightmare mode a breeze, and as long as an enemy isn't hidden behind a wall (physical or invisible) you can freeze them. It can freeze all non-boss enemies in place, and if you leave the map the enemies despawn. Since the Hangers kill themselves in the process, all players can do is try to avoid walking under the trees that Hangers spawn from. Meanwhile the Hangers are more 'environmental threats' that drop from trees and damage Simon as he passes under them. It doesn't help that most of the Babies in the game spawn in cramped, indoors locations, making running away from them very hard. Babies charge at the player until they're in range, to which they stab Simon with a metal spike as their head explodes, causing a massive amount of damage to Simon. For minor enemies, the Babies and Hangers.He has two chainsaws, which he swings around at all times so even getting close to him is instant death, he's only slightly less durable than the Sawrunner, and unlike him he's pretty much unavoidable. He's not as fast, but that's where the upsides end. Even worse in the harder difficulty settings where he doesn't pause before attacking.

He can instantly catch up to even if you sprint and is a One-Hit KO if he hits you.

The Sawrunner, a masked man with a saw that rushes at you with erratic movements while screaming, and will hound you through various segments for the better part of the game even if you somehow manage to kill him at some point.
