Should you play Directive 8020?

If you have any fondness for the previous Dark Pictures games, then you absolutely need to play Directive 8020. As somebody who’s played them all, it’s the best of the bunch. The sci-fi setting is everything I hoped it would be, the gameplay upgrades are great, some of the decisions you must make are darn difficult, and Turning Points is an awesome inclusion.

At first, you might think the choice does not matter much since you can simply return and c

Should You Save Mitchell or Anders (Under Pressure) in Directive 8020?

When given the choice to save Anders in the Medical Complex or Mitchell in Fuel Junction 4, there are a couple of important outcomes tied to your decision. If you decide to save Anders, Mitchell is surrounded by flames and ultimately dies in the process. To save Anders, you need to complete the override minigame to open the door. Young gets two attempts to complete this sequence, and if you fail, Cooper will eventually arrive and open the door instead. If you fail to choose either crew member in time, Young will collapse because of the fire and fumes. Cooper will then help her up and proceed t
