F.E.A.R. (Perseus Mandate)


Synopsis:
The game's story revolves around a supernatural phenomenon, which F.E.A.R. — a fictional special forces team — is called to contain. The player assumes the role of F.E.A.R.'s Point Man, who possesses superhuman reflexes and combats an army of cloned soldiers, and at the same time uncovers the secrets of a paranormal menace in the form of a little girl.

F.E.A.R. simulates combat from a first-person perspective. The Point Man's body is fully present, allowing the player to see the character's torso and feet while looking down. Within scripted sequences, when rising from a lying position or fast-roping from a helicopter or climbing ladders, the hands and legs of the Point Man can be seen performing the relevant actions.
A prominent gameplay element is "Slow-Mo," which slows down the game world while allowing the Point Man to aim and react at normal speeds. This effect is used to simulate the Point Man's superhuman reflexes. Reflex time is represented by stylized visual effects, such as bullets in flight that cause air distortion or interact with the game's particle effects. F.E.A.R. lead designer Craig Hubbard stated that Monolith Productions' primary goal was "to make combat as intense as the tea house shootout at the beginning of John Woo's Hard-Boiled." He continued on to say that "defeating... enemies... with style" was crucial to this goal and that reflex time plays a large role in "making the player feel like an action movie hero."

F.E.A.R. artificial intelligence back routes to surprise the Point Man, using suppressive fire or taking cover if under fire. The game's artificial intelligence is often cited as being highly advanced, and its efficiency helped the game win GameSpot's "2005 Best AI Award."

A core element of F.E.A.R. is its horror theme, which was heavily inspired by Japanese horror. The design team attempted to keep "[the] psychology of the encounter" in the player's mind at all times, in order to "get under [the player's] skin", as opposed to the "in your face 'monsters jumping out of closets' approach". The main source of the game's horror is Alma Wade, a ghostly little girl.While Alma has been compared to the character Samara from The Ring (Sadako in the original Japanese), Craig Hubbard stated that she "was born out of a tradition of eerie, faceless female ghosts" and not "as an answer to any specific movie character".
