Seriously. One of my teammates just called the ghost a bitch. She slammed the door in the room he was in, appeared suddenly and murdered him.
I snuck behind my teammates and made ghost whispering sounds into my microphone and they all thought it was the ghost. It's so easy to mess with your team in this game, lol.

This is the only game involving playing online with three other randoms, WITH voice chat, that has made me so scared I was shaking. Play it. You won't regret it.

edit - turned the lights off in the hallway of an old, abandoned highschool. Teammate asked "was that you?" and I just went "nah" and now he's freaking out

I love to play it, but its hard to find a random lobby (and I don't have any friends who play it). That said, lobbies with chill people are great and we usually spend a few hours together.

It's one of the best games released this year for me. So many hours playing with friends and it's still thrilling as fuck.

Yeah, played for the first time tonight with a friend and was a lot of fun. Normally not into MP games, but this works great.

Oh btw, if you're looking for people to play with, the dev (it's only one guy!) has an official discord that is super active - discord.gg/phasmophobia

I've put 17 hours into it over the past few days and haven't had a bad group of people yet. One of the best communities I've ever played with. My wife and I just played with a new player for about two and a half hours and it was great! I like playing with new people and helping them out when they have questions. My favorite part though is that new players freak out a lot more about stuff as they don't fully understand all the mechanics and stuff. It makes it more enjoyable.

I never use a microphone with people I don't know usually, but I do in this, and I haven't had any bad experiences yet. I'm hoping it stays that way!

My wife and I plan on trying it in VR soon now that we have a solid grasp on everything. I just wish it were easier for us to be in public games together. Right now one of us has to join one while the other scrolls through dozens of pages looking for the same match and hoping it still has room when we find it. I wish we could start a private room and then switch it to public or something, or that every public room also had a code you can give someone.
