RE: What is too much for you to handle? - Urrah - 05-19-2011
Generally speaking I'm okay with gore (dead bodies, blood ect...). I find watching torture uncomfortable (what decent person wouldn't), but I think that I'd only be forced to look away in extreme cases or if the person being tortured is someone I know or a child.
What unsettled me in Amnesia were the supernatural themes rather than the gore. And it wasn't so much the occurence of the events, but rather the paronoia of when they would next occur that I found almost unbearable.
Thinking about it, I guess you could say that the mere atmosphere of Amnesia is what disturbed me the most.

Yeah same here...torture is sick dude

EDIT: I'm trying to say the answer to your question is yes, Lee.
:o I just thought it was rope or bandages, to keep it from falling apart.

Thanks so far guys, hope I don't dissapoint later on ;-)
Clowns ?! No no no.... please dont. Spiders neither
You can put any other monstrousity (dunno if I spelled that right ) that you can think off. Im not afraid of anything else.

Dying at the same spot twice in Justine and still no clue how to evade it or what made the monster immediately know where I was. Fuck that.

Hearing disturbing screams at the storage,walking in a hallway just with a bunch of boxes,just as i try to go down the stairs i met with the Mr.Face there.
I shat myself a new chair to sit on.
So,basically,i couldn't handle coming face to face with the Mr.Face.
But now,i'm tossing some barrels,boxes,plates,and some old bread on him !

It goes even worse, knowing these tortures were real. Humanity is evil.
