Pre release ritual - Bek - 09-05-2010

So, I just got a nice email explaining that Amnesia is nearly here! I will have finished most of my exams by then and am looking forward to downloading Amnesia as soon as it unlocks (unless I get amnesia and forget..)

What will be your pre release ritual? I will try and secure as much free time as possible in the afternoon, install the game and maybe play a little sc2 or penumbra while it downloads Big Grin Playing late into the night is a must.

How many of you are planning to submit reaction videos to youtube? Wink

Am I the only one who's gonna play the game in day (and not only in night)? I know that some of the atmosphere goes away with that, but, hell, I played the demo on 3:30 PM and I was scaried as hell.

Anyway, gonna play some Company of Heroes in the wait. Great game! Smile

No. The game loses a fair share of its immersion level when not played at night in a dark room. I intend to play the game as it was meant to be experienced.

Maybe, but I only have a few hours on night to play. Still, I found the game pretty scary on daytime.

I know! In fact, I know I'll enjoy the "night hours" more. But, still, I'll play the game on daytime, too.
