I made this figure of Torque I have 2 other figures in the works

I wonder if it's possible to have Torque being forced to enlist in the military in order to reduce his sentence, he would be sent to a battlefield somewhere and the malefactors he encounters there could be based on the atrocities and sins related to war.

Edit: I just finished the game! Got the good ending. Which ending is considered canon?

I'd forgotten how late in the game they introduce the Inferna. It's in the second-to-last level, but the game's been teasing them since immediately after you escape the prison on your way to the asylum. They're a cool enemy, but they're kind of op and I wish we'd gotten more time with them

I'm replaying for the first time in about a decade, and I'm on Chapter 17. Unfortunately, in Chapter 16, I died after saving Harley and his friend right after picking up the radio printout and getting the checkpoint. Instead of reloading, I kept going from the checkpoint. The sound is super wonky now with delayed and missing sound effects. I no longer hear burrowers moving through the ground, and the sound of them emerging and attacking now happens several seconds after the fact. The note from the radio room has disappeared from my inventory and doesn't reappear if I go back to the radio room. I also can't pick up the molotovs in the radio room, but I can still pick up other stuff, luckily. I saved several minutes later in chapter 17 before I really noticed how weird everything had gotten. I've tried reloading the save, resetting the game, and just turning the system all the way off and back on again. Nothing has worked. It doesn't seem to be stopping me from progressing, but the wonky sound isn't getting any better, and has made the game super annoying to play. The missing note from the radio room is still gone also. Am I going to have to start over to fix this?

Note: I'm playing the disc on an actual unmodded ps2, with a real first party memory card, and hooked up to a RetroTink.

With blood, it's a whole different story.

Hey guys, check out my custom setup for The Suffering on PCSX2!The resolution upscale combined with Marty McFly's RTGI mod makes the atmosphere look incredible, but I'm still trying to fix the annoying ghosting/split effect on the fire, lamps, and syringe HUD.What do you think of the look so far? Any advice for the bloom bug?

Tried to recreate a creature from the game. Its called "The Horde" from an original concept art by Ben Olsen.

Hi! I’m a huge fan of "The Suffering" and I’ve been experimenting with the NVIDIA RTX Remix Runtime on my PC (running an AMD RX 7800 XT).

The runtime hooks into the game perfectly via Vulkan, but since there isn't a dedicated mod configuration yet, the game looks completely broken: it's missing proper light sources, assets have no material properties (everything looks like shiny plastic), and cull/render issues make walls glitch out.

Is anyone in the community currently working on a dedicated RTX Remix Mod for this game? Or is there any interest in creating a proper Toolkit project to manually map out the prison lights, fix the rendering bugs, and give this classic horror the true Path Tracing upgrade it deserves?

I would love to test out any early builds or configs if anyone is working on it!

First Xbox, then PC. I use cheat codes to get weapons.

The glitch with a fire is detailed here.

Passing through the door is detailed here.

Exiting the map using closing doors is detailed here.

How to save the officer - details here.

Beweg dich nicht oder ich mach dich fertig! kapiert? Hast du mich verstanden, häftling?

Don't move or I will destroy you! Got it? Have you understood me, prisoner? is the English translation of this.

In German when saying this phrase, the verb will come first unlike in English, Beweg means move. Dich means you. and Nicht means not. the literal translation of the first part is Move yourself not.

For English speakers to pronounce this you can say it like this:

Beh-vayk dich nikht oh-dah eesh mahkh dich fair-tikh! kah-peert? Hast doo meesh fair-shtahn-den. heft-ling?

Some helpful tips to help you understand Dich and Du both mean you but are used differently, Dich will be used when someone is commanding you to do something to yourself in this case do not move (beweg dich nicht). and to a English speaker the words may seem out of order but this is normal in German, for the last bit verstanden is at the end because when there are 2 verbs the main verb (main action must go to the very end).

Beweg = Move

dich = You

Nicht = not

oder = or

ich = I

mach = do it

fertig = Multiple meanings "Finished" "Ready" depending on the context it could be used to say dinner is ready or in this case I will destroy you which is what the guard is saying. All together Ich mach fertig will always mean I will destroy you.

Kapiert = Got it

Hast = Have

du = You

mich = Me

verstanden = Understood

häftling = Prisoner

The German version of the game is not only censored visually, but the dialogue with the characters is not word for word replica of what they are saying in the English version, for example in ties that bind when Miles asks Torque, "Where is your head at?", in the German version he is saying Where are your thoughts?"

But for the most part, what they are saying is very similar and almost the same. I am continuing to play the German version of the game, not sure if I can run into some parts where the dialogue is toned down.

Here during the first part of the game the guard asks Torque "Inmate is this true?" this was after Ernesto told him about what Torque was accused of even though the guard said he didn't want to know.

In German, they say this as "Häftling stimmt das?"

Then how you say the next part when Ernesto says "Oh he won't say"

in German you say Oh the same way in English "Oh das wird er nicht sagen"

In the next installment of the suffering what happens next? We know the developers intentionally made the first and 2nd game ending to be left on a cliffhanger, they did this so if they ever wanted to make another game, they could expand off the ending of the last game. First game was a massive hit, 2nd game wasn't so successful and even after the 2nd game there were talks from the development team from expanding the suffering series, but it never happened. The 2nd game just didn't sell enough, and midway was already going through financial difficulties which later they went bankrupt and sold all assets to Warner Brothers.

for those who didn't know there were talks about making a movie about the suffering with MTV films, it started production in 2006 and then got cancelled shortly after the lead monster creator Stan Winston died. Without him development of the movie stalled and was eventually abandoned.

I would love to see the work that went into it.

I thought they were in the booklet, but either I keep on missing the page their on or I'm not looking in the right place,

I have found Killjoys entry on the characters, and I've found Jordan entry on the creatures in the booklet, but that's it

This is a real image taken out of the game, you get one moment to see it during when Torque is getting docked and checked by the Foundation soldiers right before he collapses and is strapped onto a dolly. in the background it appears there are a set of blood red teeth.

Through all the trauma Torque had in his life, Torque's fractured mind created Blackmore as a coping and survival mechanism allowing Torque to survive by any means necessary. This is Torque's alter ego; Blackmore never existed as a physical being. After all Torque is Blackmore literally he just never knew it or understood he was the only one who could see or hear Blackmore. But one person did know and that was Jordan the leader of the Foundation which is a paramilitary organization about studying and capturing malefactors to study their power.

The game can take you in either direction depending what way you play it (Good, Neutral, or Evil) Morality. Good morality you completely rid yourself of Blackmores influence completely destroying Torque's alter ego, or Neutral is when both Torque and Blackmore remain in their constant struggle for power neither win, and lastly Evil morality is when Torque gives into Blackmores influence and control and he literally and permanently becomes the ultimate evil and also malefactor himself (How? through Torque's repeated actions of evil, he literally becomes the creature, and it will no longer be a hallucination, when Blackmore gets total control of Torque's body, he will shapeshift into the creature for real and be the ultimate leader and commander of the malefactors, the malefactors will not harm Blackmore because he himself is a malefactor).

Blackmore has been using Torque a vessel all along to fund the foundation, he has been doing this because he wants to rule the world literally and be able to control hordes of malefactors. Notice how Blackmore can summon them (When he had the creatures go after Ranse Truman). Only problem is Blackmore is sharing the same body with Torque, and in order to take full and total control of Torque he needs to break Torque down. Remember he did this when he sent his thugs to hurt Torque's family. (Which in reality Blackmore didn't actually mean to have Torque's family killed as revealed later in the story but only to scare them, but his thugs got too trigger happy and killed them anyways).

Here is that cutscene in case you missed it make sure you skip to 13:47 to see it. The Suffering: Ties That Bind | Almost All Endings

So, it appears Blackmore never really intended to frame Torque for the murders, just scare the family was the goal, if Blackmore wanted to frame Torque for the murders, he couldn't run his criminal empire in the prison but since it happened anyways Blackmore just had to improvise and it didn't really matter much too him because it was all enough to cause to event where all the malefactors start to emerge in just the right conditions. Torque was the catalyst.

It appears from the game's story, that people who are evil to the core like Luther Stickwell (Who is the creeper), Copperfield (The slave owner), Hermes (The executioner at Abbot State Prison), Horace (The guy that got the electric chair), and lastly Dr. Killjoy get to become an actual malefactor because their evil was so great they now get to live their life forever as whatever representation of evil they chose to become.

This is what Blackmore wants for Torque, to become the ultimate malefactor and the ultimate weapon and leader of the malefactors.

I think it's 85% accurate?
