Fatal Frame 4 (Chapter 9: Ceremony of Passage )


Ok... Chapter 9 will start after the short intro cut-scene where some guy (which I think is Choushiro) handed me (Ruka) something which I dunno what it is and also a scene from the pask when Ruka was saved... So once i gain control, I made my way towards the creepy looking double doors and there 2 emo looking spirits stopped me from going any further... so I guess it is time to feed them some type-07... these guys are extremely slow for vicious blood-thirsty spirits... I managed to get some double shots and fatal frames with 3 hit combos... These guys are pathetic and I thought to myself damn I am good and felt that I owned this game... Boy was I wrong...


So beyond the double doors is a saved point... proceed on towards it and a cut scene of young Ruka being dragged away is seen. This area is fairly simple no helpful ghost to help this time but all i did was open up the map and explored every place possible and picked up every item around nothing too hard except there are times when the screen turns grey like the past fatal frame games the final boss of the game would appear to chase you around but Sakuya is pale in comparison. She is slow and dun even look frightening at all... I remember in the manor of sleep I srsly felt afraid and was running for my dear life but down here it is srsly disappointing... I just waltz my way past Sakuya... Only that i was stupid enuff to attack Sakuya the first time she appeared... I wasted one 零 shot and a few type-14 films on her before i realised she cannot be killed... Other than those emo looking ghost along the way some female version of the ghost will also attack you so just hit them with all the type-07 films they can handle nothing too diffcult up to this point...

At the end of the passage I reach a wooden sliding door and beyond it is a house... Inside I ascended a long flight of stair and after anor flight of stairs and a door leading outside I see the performing platform where the ritual is performed... From here everything start to go downhill... the next fight shattered all my previous confidence I had... I find myself battling one ritual dancer and 5 ritual maiden... Even thou only 2 maiden will attack with the dancer each time but let me tell you... they are really cheap... The are all over the place and disappear when I think they are going to attack me but actually anor maiden will attack from my blindspot either from the side or the back... the infamous attack by appearing from beneath the ground and attacking your legs from crimson butterfly is back... I used up at least 20 - 25 herbal medicine in this fight i used so much that i lost count... It is impossible to try and get any fanciful shots I gave up after i used up 10 herbal medicine... I had to switch to type-35 films for this fight... After "persuading" them to go away peacefully with my trusty camera obscura... I srsly dun feel any sense of gratification from winning this fight... I felt that i was just gang-raped by 6 female spirit... and trust me the feeling is not that kinky...

Moving on to the house in front of the stage which I found out is the house that Ruka grew up in. Here i just followed the ghost of Ruka father and then the end of chapter... I was so exhausted from the last fight that i missed a few ghost shots and when straight to the room that bring us to the end of chapter... i only realised that the next day when i watched the youtube walkthru... Saved my game and left the next chapter for anor day... next chapter is Choushiro I dun really like using the spirit torch so i might put it off for a few day... This week is the Lunar new year so maybe I can find time to play more fatal frame and hopefully complete the game.... More on chapter 10 next...

To be continued…
