Dear Runners,

Me and the other Moderator/s discuss and also the community and we deiced that we should put this category on this series as well. so for the following quest:

Q: What's "Low%" run?
A: it's the most difficult category in the fatal frame series.

Q: What makes it difficult?
A: in this category, the runner should finish the game but without:
 - Without using any lens
 - without ugrading the obscuras
 - without using other films besides the film 07

Q: how bout on Choshiro's chapter? are we not allowed to use the camera lens?
A: No, you are allowed to use it. Since the lens only ise to capture hints amd story progression and doesn't damage any enemy.

Q: Dpes a runner allowed to use dodge and other function?
A: Yes, We are allowing it for the runner for the purpose of beating it quickly.

this will be some minor Q&A for the category. if is there any negative comments or question about it, please feel free to tell us in the fatal frame discord channel. that will be all for now. Happy running!

The mods discussed a few minor mistakes based on where the run should be submitted. Here are the conclusions of the run:

  • 60 FPS - PC, PS5, XBOX
  • 30 FPS - Nintendo Switch, WiiU, PS4

For anyone who hasn't noticed the changes yet. I have changed the name of (Console & PC > 30 FPS & 60FPS). I also organized all the 60 FPS runs. I also add a new category (Mission Mode%).

so if there's anyone who has some opinion regardless of this matter. please message us on the official Fatal Frame Discord! we're also updating every runner there as well!

Happy Running!

Hey Hiro here, I would like to announce it here that I am going to make a Ghost list% Guide for the category of ghost list completion% Where I will put in the guide:

  • Name of Ghost per Drop
  • Location of the Ghost Spawn
  • Fatal Glance of Every Ghost

I will update everyone on the Official Fatal Frame Discord server!

Happy Running.

Also in addition to PC, the main problem is that the runner has their own different setup builts (some Runenrs has a Beefy one, and other including me who can't run the game in flat 60 FPS use a decent setup). So there are a lot of issues when it comes to the cutscenes showing up and the door animation sometimes takes a few seconds to open. But other than that, there's no issue whatsoever I can run normally.

Gyeonggi, South KoreaHiro_Mashiro11 months ago

Well, the most effective way for PC to run at smooth 60 FPS was a mod where the Noise in the game will be removed. That will make the game run in a smooth 60 FPS. but in will affect the blossoming animation in the cutscenes in the game that's what I observed but since we don't usually watch cutscenes in the game, I guess it's good to do that mod. But, the problem in removing Noise in the game is that, when there's a new update, the Noise will back, or worse it will affect your game entirely so you need to re-do the entire process again.

I tried to see the door animation and the climbing animation in the (Xbox series X, Ps4, and PC) and based on what I observed the animation for both opening doors, climbing stairs, and cutscene is most likely the same (I only watch 3 video separately I didn't do an actual editing where I tried to combine all playthrough to see the difference between the gameplay). So I think 60 FPS should be in the same Category unless there's a short difference that I haven't seen based on FPS. sources:

Finndillydinn (PS4):

Venom Corp (Xbox Series X):

Minezowski (PC):

Based on my observation on my runs and on Finn's Run (PS4), the door animation is way faster for the PC while on the PS4 it has a couple of seconds delay before the character opened the door.

Next is in the menu on equipping lenses, functions, etc. The PC version is way quicker when it comes to equipping items while on the PS4 it is way more slower.

So I agree with separating the Remastered and the Wii version while the PC and Console are in separate categories. Thank you for your hard work!

This is something I would like to ask about regardless of the Wii version and the remaster. They may have similarities when it comes to the puzzles and everything. But the FPS for the Wii was 30 while the remaster was 60.

Next is the Console version for the remastered. You can play it on multiple consoles (PS4, PS5, Xbox One, PC, Switch, & Xbox Series X). And on the console, it should be the same as Fatal Frame 2 where the Category for the Xbox and PlayStation are separate categories since it's quite unfair for the PlayStation Runner to play against Xbox Runner.

Also, should we also separate PC from the rest of the Console category for fairness of the runs?
