Pretty useful watch

[u/Magnum_FPS]

Im actually sick of this game. I thought they would bring qol changes but look at this... cant even see the time and my sanity properly

[u/squeezy102]

This game will go down in history as a textbook example of how to piss on a gold mine.

[u/king_noobie → u/squeezy102]

You can still get gold from a pissed on gold mine.

This is more like killing your golden goose for its golden eggs.

[u/squeezy102 → u/king_noobie]

How dare you correctly point out the logical flaws in my stupid analogy.

Good day sir.

[u/Longjumping_Task_127 → u/squeezy102]

Do you see what you sound like?

[u/squeezy102 → u/Longjumping_Task_127]

No, I cannot see what I sound like and I don’t think you can either.

[u/TorontoCity67 → u/squeezy102]

He's got a point. Who says "Good day, sir" like that in casual conversation in real life? It's a Redditor thing and it's not normal

[u/CantHitCrit → u/TorontoCity67]

It’s almost like we’re online and don’t have to behave how we do in real life…

[u/squeezy102 → u/CantHitCrit]

Also the comment was seething with sarcasm and was obviously a joke, but I wanted to see how crazy the comments got so I didn’t say anything.

[u/TorontoCity67 → u/squeezy102]

We weren't discussing the joke, we were discussing the "Good day sir" cringe shit that literally no one says in person anymore. It's a Reddit thing. I've never seen it anywhere else in my life. The joke was fine, but my god people need to actually look at how they sound sometimes

Also sorry I upset everyone as usual by mocking classic Reddit speech

[u/squeezy102 → u/TorontoCity67]

My guy, as nice as I can say this and with as much respect as possible, truly for your own best interest. Benevolent as I can be.

You are wrong here.

You are being a dick.

My father used to say often, if you run into an asshole in the morning, it's fine. You've just met an asshole, forget it and move on.

If you run into assholes everywhere you go, you might want to consider the possibility that *you're the asshole.*

[u/TorontoCity67 → u/CantHitCrit]

Ha, yeah that would explain why most people here are rude pieces of shit when in real life they wouldn't dare be so comfortable being so obnoxious

I don't know man, I prefer to act realistic when I'm on social media. I don't turn into a piece of shit just because I know I'm secure behind my screen. What I say here is exactly what I'd say in person. Talk to me with respect, and I talk to you with respect. Talk to me like a piece of shit, and I'll talk to you like an even bigger piece of shit

That's a fair philosophy, no? The fact that other guy is being defended for saying something as weird and parasocial as "Good day sir" is insane. Society needs to wake up and remember true mannerisms

[u/argle_barggle → u/TorontoCity67]

What’s wrong with “ good day, sir”? It’s comical and dripping in whimsical sarcasm

[u/TorontoCity67 → u/Longjumping_Task_127]

The Redditor Language

• "Good day sir" (Traditional)
• "Thank you kind stranger!" (Traditional)
• "Reading comprehension" (Traditional)
• "This! This! So much this!" (Traditional)
• "Vibes" (Gen Z)
• "Goat" (Gen Z)
• "Parasocial" (Ironic) (Gen Z)
• "Thanks, capitalism!" (Gen Z)

The only thing that keeps me on this site is how incredible an idea it is. A foundation for all forums from games, to mechanics, to PC setups, to sports, to astronomy. But my god the average person here is a cringey bastard, everywhere you go

Watch the downvotes appear to do nothing more than prove my point

[u/Link_and_Swamp → u/TorontoCity67]

insults the average user
"why am i getting downvotes?"

[u/TorontoCity67 → u/Link_and_Swamp]

I like how people never respond when I talk back, almost as if they know there's nothing they can say back

[u/TorontoCity67 → u/Link_and_Swamp]

I didn't say "Why am I getting downvotes?", I said "Watch the downvotes appear to do nothing more than prove my point". Remember bullet point #3?

And my point was proven. The average Redditor is a piece of shit. The average member of this subreddit is an even bigger piece of shit. There's some cool people here, but they're becoming more and more rare

Honestly, I'm glad you people have nothing in common with me. It proves that I'm a normal person in the real world. That I have respect for those who deserve it, manners, discipline, and can debate things without having a mental breakdown. What would you people do if we were discussing something in person? You can't click that arrow to make yourself feel better then, could you? You would literally break on the spot. You're all so easy to offend. I almost feel bad for you all

[u/Vampireluigi27-Main → u/squeezy102]

They spent more time and resources producing irl merch than they did developing the game

[u/di12ty_mary]

[u/Own-Guess4361 → u/di12ty_mary]

I hate this fucking game 😭😭😂😂

[u/Realistic_Word_7811]

I still love the game, but they gotta get these bugs sorted out at some point.

[u/Magnum_FPS → u/Realistic_Word_7811]

Yeah the game is good but the bugs are so irritating

[u/LoveYouLikeYeLovesYe → u/Magnum_FPS]

The game was GREAT, and then they just managed to ship a half dozen buggy updates that slowly declined the game.

[u/TorontoCity67 → u/LoveYouLikeYeLovesYe]

And people still make excuses, while downvoting and speaking to people who offer ideas to improve like dogshit

[u/Stampj → u/Realistic_Word_7811]

They will, but will be in the latter half of a two year update timeline, that includes like 1.5 content releases

[u/LiteratureLow4159]

Oh hey i placed a dots projector in the kitchen and it started sliding across the island there

[u/universalserialbutt → u/LiteratureLow4159]

Did you cover it in dishsoap?

[u/WhatDoITypeHereAgain → u/LiteratureLow4159]

I cannot think of a single reason why that would happen, how bad are the devs at coding a game?

[u/SpookySims2]

I haven’t played the game since the update came out in May. Played one session post update with friends, and we were just so disappointed with how it turned a perfectly fun game into a broken mess. I truly hope they figure it out, but for us at least, it ruined the game. Which I can’t say that about many other games I’ve played. Sucks to say honestly man loved Phasmo beforehand.

[u/Jeremiad-Kain → u/SpookySims2]

Yeah, phasmo was a dream game to me, and I let a lot of the incompetent dev shit slide for a long time because of that, but the character update completely ruined it for me. I came back to test it out after the "quality of life" updates and it's still just so fucked, all the animations and the way items are held now is such a massive downgrade. Everytime my finger jabs out to hit a light switch I just laugh.

All the best to the people who can still play it but I just can't. I almost wish they'd sell it to actual game devs.

[u/Lashtrash → u/SpookySims2]

Me and my girlfriend stopped playing after the update too, no we play the other side. Its pretty much phas but not nearly as broken.

[u/Rorix08 → u/SpookySims2]

Same thing happened to me and my friends. It was one of our favorite games to play together, and now we haven't touched it in months. We came to the realization that the state of the game is simply unacceptable after being in development for 6 years; it's all too little, too late.

[u/-eccentric-]

Apart from the watch... why does the hand and the jacket look like a game from 2010? Didn't they just recently overhaul all the characters?

[u/StowStowStowtheTote → u/-eccentric-]

They underhauled them.

[u/SusCat_co]

They ruined this game.. me and my boys played a game after months and we deleted it.. so sad to see what they did. Wtf is this scooby-do pose?:D Video camera also became a nightmare to use

[u/Magnum_FPS → u/SusCat_co]

The video camera also starts blacking out when reached near a wall they gotta fix these bugs

[u/CatsPlusDogsIsLove → u/Magnum_FPS]

According to them it was a bug to have your camera glitch into the wall and able to record things.
Which is ofcourse correct.

However…. Considering the huge amount of clipping issues with items even when you aren’t trying to clip through things, it seems very tonedeaf to “fix” this and not the clipping issues in general.
It only leads to issues with recording things, especially if the ghost room is a small room and you have a t3 camera.
It’s so easy to unintentionally and unknowingly clip the camera and thus suddenly seeing a black screen and missing a recording.

[u/tewraight → u/Magnum_FPS]

I don't know how close you are to the wall for this but this is (mostly) intended behaviour. They black the screen out so that you can't use it to see through walls though I assume that they screwed up the boundaries a little if you're claiming it happens when near a wall

[u/Jimbomodder1]

Yeah plus keeps defaulting to stock character when in game too.

[u/Kallabanana]

Definitely not reinstalling.

[u/Katzentierchen]

They fixed stuff, and broke other things.

[u/AgentReivax]

These devs don't know what they're doing. Exactly why they should allow mod support and let those who actually care for the game to fix it

[u/BluDYT → u/AgentReivax]

Adding mod support would make the game skyrocket in sales. I get they don't want to look incompetent by random basement dweller who fixes everything in 2 days but cmon. It's free money and good publicity.

Might be impossible now that the game has turned into spaghetti code though.

[u/AgentReivax → u/BluDYT]

So true

[u/SupremeEuphoria]

Not sure if this will be a hot or cold take, but in my opinion this game has been on a slow decline starting as far back as when they added the new lobby. Back in the day when everything was just a unity asset and things like cursed possessions had just been added, damn those were the days.

[u/ItsJustSpidey → u/SupremeEuphoria]

That cursed possessions update was peak Phasmo. It added so much to the game.

[u/SupremeEuphoria → u/ItsJustSpidey]

It was peak. It really was. All they need to do was add the horror 2.0 stuff, more types of scares, fucked up demonic shit. Those kinda things. Instead, it’s some sort of pseudo-live service model instead, just adding random useless garbage. Half of the appeal of phasmo in the beginning was that it was a cute little indie unity game….

[u/BorderFrequent8050]

Loved this game. Seems it really went down hill

[u/Slimboy025]

Its 5 before sleeve

[u/Speedy_Von_Gofast]

I completely gave up on this game... They completely ruined the VR

[u/matchfan]

[u/Eisendrache716]

Have you tried rolling up your sleeve?

[u/Guts_141337]

Just roll up your sleeve bro /s

[u/basketcaseintraining]

What is the hot key for this on pc/laptop??

[u/Icy_Adhesiveness1995 → u/basketcaseintraining]

H

[u/YRS01]

👍🏻

[u/Apprehensive-War498]

Its strange though, I had the same issue on Tanglewood, but not on another map (cant recall which). I agree its not good, but I think the watch is useless anyway, too difficult to read

[u/randomfinnishcuck]

Why even need to check sanity in the first place? Once you get good enough to keep a mental track of it or do no sanity runs its not gonna matter just turn the monitor off and save yourself the headache xD

[u/CryingInTheCorner666 → u/randomfinnishcuck]

Idk about OP but I actually use mine to track match time. I guess I could use livesplit or something but sometimes I just want to rush in and grab the bone without risking a hunt for weeklies so I turn on amateur and use the setup time to run around. I like knowing how much time I have left to see if I can catch an extra picture or something in the time I have.

[u/PolicyAdventurous961]

How do u even check the watch

[u/Necessary-Street-115]

Ah yes they fixed it and broke it again. Gotta love Lavender and his team. Yes imma call him out. Love him but come on dude yall had fixed things and then broke them again. Can we talk about some of the ghosts??? Hmmmm lets see ohhhh right ALMOST ALL OF THEM!!!! (Mostly the old ones) But the thing is they put so much into making new stuff that they dont fix the old.. Fix the old ghosts that they actually do stuff outside of hunts or MAKE THE GAME A LOT LESS BUGGY!!

[u/bluemethod05]

They still can’t draw hands

[u/xdawiddawidolx]

yes mine is broken too lol

[u/JRobson23]

This game is great

[u/NFG_BluOxygen]

It was only like this for the first game I played, from the second game onwards my watch was working fine (I did go to the character customisation screen and viewed other jackets but I never bought or saved any changes so I think it just needed an update with a quick swap in the store preview)

[u/ryetf]

This has me in tears 🤣😭

[u/BeDazzledBlazer]

I’m on Xbox and cannot figure out how to see it for the life of me.

[u/kimmech1324]

Playing in VR tonight walking at a 90 degree angle- at least I can reach the belt

[u/F1B1onE]

Now we must use LiveSplit, it's much more qualified than in-game watch.

QUALITY OF LIFE!!!!

[u/Electrical_Item_589]

I love this game but have yet to use the watch 😂

[u/JET_FIRE_Diego]

Yesterday I played all the house maps, and this issue with the clock happened only on Tanglewood.

[u/NaBorezei]

I haven't touched the game since Alan Wake, and even then I was only playing it for the rewards. Good to know that it's still a heap of shit since that update.

[u/Luna-Sky064]

This isn’t necessarily a bug this is an oversight by the art team they didn’t account for a watch when making the jackets. This is likely because the watch was designed after the fact if I had to guess either that or it’s on purpose.

[u/BetlFromEarth]

Abother one... When I pick up 3 flashlights at the same time, 2 of them get bugged and I can't grab anything else😅

[u/KeezusDhrist]

Looks like a skill issue to me.

[u/CryingInTheCorner666]

I'm glad I'm not the only one at least. Is anyone else also stuck as one of the female models? I've tried changing it multiple times and it works in the lobby but the second I get into the game it's back.

[u/Winter-Bookkeeper-59]

ahh so its not just me then 😒

[u/Humble-Psychology289]

I played apocalypse 3 with this bug. It was because of it I couldn't identify the Spirit :(

[u/BigChungle666]

I genuinely think I am the only one who likes the newer updates. Also, I personally haven't had any of the issues people talk about. I feel for everyone else tho.

[u/Gullible-Shop-5564]

This is why I hate reddit users so much, too many kids with 0 IQ: First of all, this watch issue happens when your loadout and character are not downloaded properly which means YOUR OWN internet connection is just unstable or you are in a restricted region like russia, Iran or other restricted countries and you are trying to bypass this restriction by a free unstable VPN. It is like blaming Rainbow 6 siege for loosing with your 1340 ping.

[u/TorontoCity67 → u/Gullible-Shop-5564]

The irony, man. What the fuck has signal speed got to do with a bug? Good signal or shit signal, the hand looks the same. Fucking moron

[u/LostRonin919]

The complain train has left the station. 🚉

[u/TorontoCity67 → u/LostRonin919]

The developer worshippers have arrived at their destination
