Amnesia: The Dark Descent Review

[quote=SixSonatas]If I weren't so inclined on multiplayer games, I'd probably get this. I just find games to be more fun when other humans are involved :)[/quote]

[quote=Chaotic Bliss]Dude that would be awesome... can you imagine this game as a multi player? That would be epic. I mean there are points, like the sewer monster, that you cant really do more than maybe 2 people, but it would still be awesome. I mean that would be epic... If someone dies, than they are left behind. The game is over once everyone is dead... I mean that would make this a lil more challenging I think. Those that can keep their cool live, those that spaz out die, or live by some odd coincadence (SP). That would be great... Id get in on that game. I cant play this game solo. My imgaination is just too damn active for that. I wouldnt be alseep for a few weeks[/quote]

[quote=Scrax]Hahah, I bet Chaotic x) Wouldn't think anything else of you :P[/quote]

[quote=LandoChronus]Yea but could you imagine some of the noobs that play this game being in there ? How does this game compare fear-wise with F.E.A.R. ? That game wasn't exactly frightening, but there were some really crazy moments in that game.[/quote]

[quote=Scrax]Well, comparing F.E.A.R with this is kinda like I wrote in the review. In F.E.A.R you get those omgwtfdamnshitOProflstompyourfaceexplodedhahah weapons, while in Amnesia you got a damn lantern ([icon=Wriggle's Lantern size=19]?) I do see how multi-player could be an option though. I mean, you have the survivors, and the monsters. Someone could be the survivors, others could be the monsters. Of course, if people already knew the game's story, they would fly through it FAST. However, if they used a game engine that randomizes all the content (like L4D's engine), it would open for so much more cool stuff. But as there's a campaign editor incorporated in the game, that could be an easy solution as well. Well, if anyone would take the time to make one of those epic campaign's.. Comparing first-person shooters WITH guns Vs. First-person shooters (the perspective I mean) WITHOUT guns, is like comparing banana and potato. F.E.A.R isn't actually scary, you know? You know when things are happening, you know when it will say *BAM* and when it will go *SPLAT*. Nothing is left for the senses, you see it before it happens, which gives you the time to get ready for it. Of course you have those "Turning around... Turning around.. Turn- LITTLE SCARY AS F* GIRL JUMPING IN MY FAAAACE!" moments, but those aren't more scary than the average i-web screamer. Or? Then we have Amnesia. Where the basic concept is "Fear what you don't see". Here atmosphere, sound, and feel plays a much bigger difference than in games like F.E.A.R. It goes into your sub-consciousness, and plays with you. It keeps your senses strained, and your heart beating like CRAZY. Now this, THIS is scary. And then you have those monsters that chase you down once in a while.. F*ing hate you guys! I'd love multi-player Amnesia though..[/quote]

[quote=Restrictnine#5232][quote=Scrax] Hahahah XD Yeah, I've died once or twice :P Not because I panicked or anything though.. *cough* [/quote] i seem to recall you pausing the game every time something happened in game lol. a rustling of noise? pause. you fell in the water? pause. the monster catches up to you? pause. lolol. If i were you, i would just keep the game paused and never play. I dont handle scary games very well.[/quote]

[quote=Scrax]I pause it like 10 times per 15th minute XD Well, the first time I played it. My balls have finally dropped now! YAY! :D[/quote]

[quote=Restrictnine#5232]Lol game starts ::PAUSE:: dude. i used to be scared of Fallout NV. Why would I ever play Amnesia lol? although... it IS halloween...[/quote]

[quote=LandoChronus][quote=Scrax]... F.E.A.R [i]is ok and startling[/i] Then we have Amnesia. [i]Awesome and terrifying.[/i] ... [/quote] Do I have the basic idea right ?[/quote]

[quote=Chaotic Bliss]I like th idea of monster players vs human players... but what about a group of X amount of people vs NPCs? It would follow the story line, but with X amount of people instead of one. Kinda like a horror movie... That would be an awesome game. That would give the game a few more options ya know?[/quote]
