Can't wait for this, godspeed.

Hey c-Zom. Finished Triptych, I'm liking where this is going, I'm giving this one a 9.
*Writings still great.
*Level design's improved. Incorporating character interactivity is a great help, that lever for the bridge detour is great, more of that would be a major plus.
*I know Lovecraft, so I could follow what was going on, other people? probably not so much. (Sucks for them though.)
*I'd like to see a launcher be made for future versions. It may be easy to type a map name in the console, but a lot of people (Like me before I figured it out for Worry of Newport.) are gonna get turned off by it. Best to just make a custom launcher for crisis that starts up the mod proper. Adhere to the needs of the thick-skulled.
*Please don't give up after this one! You're mods are one of the rare few things out there that constitute good story gaming, and I'd hate to see you give in because some people just don't get it. I'm eagerly waiting on parts 2 and 3, and whatever comes next. You're doing great, better every time!
*This would honestly be a ten, I really thought you improved on Newport here (which was pretty damn cool to start with) but I think there's still room for improvement. Your formula's getting better, good work!

I played this mod through in one go, and reviewed it as an "8" heres why.
The install instructions were incomplete, so that was a bit annoying. The mod itself, however, once it works, is great. story's excellently written, well designed levels, except for the fact that it was easy to wander out of rendered zones, etc.
I found the game to be genuinely scary at times, HOWEVER, there were parts that ticked me off, in particular the slow walking cut scenes, (Why???) and the unskippable french lady books. (WHYYYYYY??) Minor complaints though.
I'd love to see more stuff like this, but please...don't grab the controls away from the character every five seconds, that's NOT good design philosophy.
Great job though.

Quick follow up, I got it working.
The readme didn't say anything about typing con_restricted 0 into the console, and that was required to get the mod working. I had to find that info off site. So, if anyone's having troubles, that's what you gotta do. A bit annoying that that wasn't in the readme.

Hiya. I'm having issues with getting this thing running. I did everything the instructions said, renamed the target path to -mod newport2 etc, but when I try to get in through the console by typing map part1 it says command not recognized or something like that. I reaaaaly want to play this, so could I get some help? Thanks.
