Light source on Amnesia - Yuhaney - 11-13-2009

What is the light source on Amnesia? In Penumbra it was the flashlight and glowstick, but since it's based on middle age (or what ever TongueSmile, there is no flashlights etc.

Maybe some kind of lantern ?
Just a thought .. =)

A lantern for sure. Perhaps candles for batteries?

I would think so.. It may also be some kind of torch. You know, the kind of torch you light on fire x)

Well, if it's a lantern, small jugs of oil might fit better than candles. Although candles in themselves could probably be a light source.

Yeah, these that are mentioned so far i think are the most reasonable light sources to use =)

If you're talking about the oil jugs, i was actually also thinking the same thing. But i was not sure what to write XD

In the news thread, Jens actually says it's a lantern, in case you missed:
Quote:I have a lantern active first--
Which suggest that the player uses a lantern as the light source.

But there is no model for the lantern in the game, at least I didn't notice any. It would be cool if the lantern was affected by physics, and make it sway when moved. Of course there will be a hand holding the lantern (*cough* Penumbra *cough*)

Night Vision! Nah, just kidding ^^
