RE: Amnesia: A Machine For Pigs Discussion - Kreekakon - 12-18-2012 I'm willing to give him the benefit of doubt. RE: Amnesia: A Machine For Pigs Discussion - xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx - 12-18-2012 I really hope you're right Kreekakon. I thoroughly enjoyed watching Pewdie's old LPs of Penumbra and the original Amnesia, so it would be awesome if could go "back to the roots" with AMFP. But I wonder if, after that long period of goofiness, he's still able to be really frightened by a game he Let's Plays? Or does the act of turning the microphone on already flip some sort of "acting mode" switch in his brain? RE: Amnesia: A Machine For Pigs Discussion - Kein - 12-18-2012 Quote: EDIT: Also, you've got some nerve telling people they don't understand what a game is about. If they played it, they get the story. If it went over their head, that's the artist's fault, not the audience's. If the artist specifically created whatever the piece of art in question is with the intention of obscuring the true meaning so that only a few people would get it, that is a bad piece of art. That's not to say art has to be simplistic, but it absolutely does have to be comprehensible, if not clear.You've got some nerve to call a piece of media bad (be it a game, book or movie) just because you don't understand it? Well, aren't we quite pretentious? Fun how your own statement works against you. Some media isn't for everyone, especially when it directly states so in premiere/reprise. That's why there is whole movement/category like "art-house" in movies, for example. The only question is why do you consume such kind of media and then whine about it in a first place when you could try something else instead? Don't like Miasmata and Dear Esther? Play Lone Survivor or Amnesia. Or dead Space. What the problem? (12-17-2012, 07:59 PM)Paint the man cut the lines Wrote: you do know that AMFP will be completely ruined once its released because of PewDieDickMan, if you let someone else to ruin genuine product for you - it is only your fault. You always have a choice to ignore. I myself, for example, never was so invested into Amnesia/FG community so I still have no idea what PewDie is. And I have no interest - even plain curiosity - to enlighten myself (judging by what I heard so far). I do enjoy the game(s) and that's enough for me.

It all depends on if he's willing to. Given that AMFP is the sequal to the very core, classical game of his fanbase, I'm thinking he'll show it respect by playing it how he really would.

RE: Amnesia: A Machine For Pigs Discussion - Deep One - 12-18-2012 Oh please no, not another PDP fight!

RE: Amnesia: A Machine For Pigs Discussion - Saty - 12-18-2012 Am i the only one who thinks this game won't live up to the original i.e. Amnesia Dark Descent? In gaming they usually make the first game brilliant( example- Suffering,Wolfenstein,Fear,Dead space etc..) but the second one is in a lot of cases a shadow of the first game. I could be wrong but screaming pigs in chinatown just don't cut it for me.

The "screaming pigs in chinatown" which was shown is basically just a monster encounter like the one we're all so familiar with in the original Amnesia.
