However, I thought that Frictional Games was going on about how they were going to create a game with less horror elements for their next game. Guess they decided against it. | ||

By that, I mean that it should be only a spiritual successor and not have the same character or anything. It should also use some of the principles from the old game but not too many while also building on the ones they are using. In order for this game to be just as scary, if not (hopefully) more so, they will need to keep a large bit of the game really fresh and change up the way their monsters work a bit so we don't already know what we can expect from them (like their AI and spawning tendencies) from the prequel. Remember folks, this is Amnesia, not Deja Vu. All in all, this announcement has me worried. Designing a successful sequel to a horror game is incredibly hard, especially one like Amnesia where a good bit of the horror came from the unfamiliarity and mystery of the backstory, monsters and other things. I'm also not sure if the creation of Amnesia didn't have a good bit of luck involved with how well it ended up coming out. We'll see, though. If these guys can make a worthy successor, I have a feeling they might just be the best developers out there for horror video games. Not much has ever come out that could rival Amnesia. If they can't pull it off, though, people might just remember Amnesia 2, and not the masterpiece of an original. | ||

Kind of worrying that it's still called "Amnesia" though... I hope it's just a working title or for marketing purposes because another contrived memory-loss survival horror game would be a little bit weak in the storytelling department, even if it is with different plot elements otherwise. | ||

From the metadata for the web page: "Welcome to the next frictional game site, a site with information about our game projects in development. We use this site to post content about a project in development, during the period it does not have a final name decided." This implies that it may not be named "Amnesia" -- They may just be using the name right now because people recognize it. Also, a link to the console people assume is for the ARG: http://www.nextfrictionalgame.com/inject_db.php?select_user=' or '1'='1 | ||

I might get the second one if it is ever cheap or on sale. Hopefully they will fix the things that made their first game fall just short of amazing. | ||
