Amnesia didn't quite do it for me. To start, I was scared out of my mind because I came into it not knowing what to expect and I was quite terrified. But after like 2 hours of playing, each monster encounter is EXACTLY like all of the other ones. They are also sometimes forced... overally they just got way too predictable and easy. The storyline was interesting to follow, but the game just got less and less scary as it went on.
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.
In the interview they mention that they're mixing it up a lot to keep things scary, trying to avoid the patterns that defused the game for some players.

I can't wait to watch Day9 scream in terror again.

Hmm does that mean the monster in this one will hop at you with both arms foward and an ancient chinese seal on its face? Actually, I have a source within Frictional Games; he says they have a pretty good idea of what the new monster will look like. He gave me a piece of concept art, too. + Show Spoiler +
That is damn scary.

We must get day9 to play this one SOOO BADLY
the first was he did was so awesome, i myself who was too scared to play the game watch day9 go through it and even tho some people will call me patheic or something along those lines, i just found the view through day9 way more enjoyable and just the right amount of scary for me
imo day9 and amnesia is the best combo

Welp, this is going to be gory as fuck.
...can't wait to watch playthroughs of it! :D
|
I'm so pumped for this, beat the original Amnesia ofc and it was ghastly!
|
Yeah, like the others I really want to see Day9 play through this, but before I do I really hope to experience this game legitimately. I finished Dark Descent after watching Day9 play through it and even though I knew where all the scary parts were I was still really scared. I can't imagine how it'd be like if I played the whole thing through without expectations. I just hope I'll finish it before Day9 plays it because one of the best things about Day9 playing it through was the chat!

For sure,. I was another person who experienced the game through Day9 after only playing a little of the game on my own.
Want to do this one right, and I sure hope it's more than a worthy successor to the original.

oh man i am pretty excited about this
|
I'm actually quite hyped about the title. Hope they invented some messed up yet ingenious reason behind naming a game 'a machine for pigs'.
|
First one was truly a pleasure to play. I am really looking forward to this.
what a sick title too..
|
day1 buy for me, I've never experienced fear so vividly in Amnesia, its just something you have to try out =)
|
Looking forward to Day[9] playing it
|
A game I have absolutely zero desire to play because I'm a huge pansy but I hope it does well. Watching people play Amnesia was amazing.

Hopefully the story won't suck balls and there will be more variety in enemies. While I was scared like a pansy really far in, I soon learned that just running around or really fast past them worked out really easily and just killed the game for me.
If they really up their game, this will be amazing!
Yeah, I had a few legitimate frights up until that first (maybe there's more?) water area where all you see is some feet run around. I died there.I tried to hop from safe place to safe place but failed. Then I got killed, and expected to actually see the monster, but got nothing. Then I start thinking:
"So I'm supposed to be scared of footprints in the water? Lol okay."
And so I just ran through the area, and I made it. That killed it for me. I get the monster being invisible or something like that, but when it kills you, you should actually see it. You need to be able to make the connection that the feet in the water is actually a horrifying creature, that you need to be afraid of, yet there was nothing.
However I'm hyped for this game.

Well it's the same thing with the monsters.
Once you know how they work - they see you, you just run in a room and shut the door - they gone forever.
I think the monsters were a litle too predictable and easy to read. They should be more random, that way they'd be more scary.

This.
If they're smart they will arrange a sponsored stream.

Sometimes the monster would break through the door, but I know what you mean.
It also didn't help that the game had some silly bugs - like if you held a barrel up in front of you, the monsters would be unable to detect you if you stayed still.
I'm still looking forward to it, the above things kind of sucked about the first Amnesia, but if they fix them then A Machine For Pigs will be a 10/10 experience.

Nice! Can't wait to see some gameplay.
