Damn, in a way I'm pretty relieved to hear this, more of a story person Tongue some reviewer said that the game itself isn't as bad (scary) as TDD but the story is pretty disturbing and haunting

I feel the same way - after reading the review summaries and snippets I'm looking forward to the game even more than I already was. Smile

My problem is there are already plenty of games out there that focus on a good storyline. How many can you name that have creating fear as the intent? Very, very few, and most of those are quite old.

Obviously this purely subjective, but I am not happy about it at all.

A good story is very important - not sure how you can rule it out just like that.

How about playing the game and seeing what YOU think - after all, we all have different ways of appreciating games. Smile

I'm not ruling it out, that's not even close to what I was saying. TDD had a good story of its own, and also managed to create a powerful atmosphere of terror. To use vague and subjective numbers, it was fear - 9 and story - 6. AMFP seems to flip those numbers around, and simply put I was hoping and expecting something closer to what TDD had.

I plan to, doesn't mean I can't comment on what reviews are saying though.

Even if this game doesn't give me what I hoped for, with any luck Frictional's unannounced project will. Undecided

Ok, let's all calm down, shut our eyes, put our fingers in our ears and sing "Lalalalala" for 1 day. After that, don't go on the forums, instead, *open Amnesia: A Machine For Pigs and play it untill your diaper finally needs a change, then when your diaper is changed, go on the forums and post how awesome it was. Repeat from *.

I still have more like 2 days. It comes out tomorrow, but I'm gonna be too busy during the day and I want to wait until it's dark for the whole experience, so I still can't play it for over 24 hours. Consider yourself lucky Tongue
