I feel bad for you OP, here's a bump.

You're basically talking about games similar to Clue, right? The only other game that allows you to use your intuition that way is LA Noire, not that it's hard or anything. I haven't played Deceit so I might not know what exactly you're looking for.

>>14688930

In Deceit you have all players trapped in some kind of laboratory, the goal is to get out, BUT some of the players are mutants whose objective is to sabotage the escape and/or kill the others, nobody knows who is a mutant except the other mutants (randomly selected at the beginning), mutants need to drink blood from the medical supply bags to use their powers, every now and then the lights go out and the mutants can stalk and kill the other players.

The "mystery" part is how everyone is free to just pin the blame on someone else and make everyone else paranoid, non mutants would say "no, I am not" but then, who is telling the truth?

>Players interact to find out who's the secret villain while he tries to stay hidden

It's not a unique concept and was invented by - wait for it - the French. It was an online RP game called Les Loups de Thiercelieux. It still has a token community by the looks of things.

Just play Town of Salem if you want to play this, has couple thousand players.

Sounds fun, but I'm too shy to play with online people. Virtue's Last Reward and other games in that series are fun murder mysteries, but they're singleplayer and weeb.

This game is fucking excellent if you get everyone on mics AND you're not playing with meta gaming fags. Also, thais ruin everything for some reason. Honestly, the experience is a bit too vulnerable for consistent fun.

meta gaming fags? wait, there is a pseudo-competitive aspect or something?

So another twitch-bait game

Or just plain dickery like in Trouble in Terrorist Town.

Isn't TITT basically forced roleplay or get kicked?

>>14689086

Well, people on out-of-game voice comms often shit things up like they would in Mafia or TITT. Finding out if they're the monster and other shit, letting their monster friends win etc.

>yfw the same developer is working on a 1000 player concurrent MMO

I'll enjoy that fucking trainwreck.

>>14689124

I would rather have some more asymmetry on that game but then again as you say, sometimes the monster is friends with other players and there is nothing preventing any 3rd party comms being used.

>>14689119

If you're in a retarded server with power-tripping spergs, but in good ones, you had to be careful with your murders and suspects, but then again, retardation pretty much sit in the playerbase.

Isn't it just Dead by Daylight again?
