In spite of Phasmophobia's flaws it's definitely one of my favorite games to play with friends. The concept is really creative and walking through an old decrepit house with nothing but the in-game radio never stops being creepy and mysterious. No matter how many times I am hunted seeing the lights start to flash still ignites a primal fear in me.

That being said the game can be pretty frustrating at times. Sometimes the ghost just doesn't feel like showing up and you end up running out of sanity pills before you can find more than one or two pieces of evidence. Sometimes you can't complete all of your objectives just because no one bothered to bring an otherwise useless item like a motion sensor. I also don't really like many of the new features - making hunts and ghost events almost indistinguishable just removes the fun factor of ghosts events for me, and all weather seems to do is tank my framerate.
