Changing Portraits - Googolplex - 06-22-2011

I found something on youtube:

I remember the portrait of Alexander, who have two different faces in the study chamber.

I wanted to see more kind of such "changing" in the next game. Not only paintings, but if things were changing in the game, it is very creepy and makes a good horror effect.

What u think?

When i first started playing Amnesia I was under the impression that all the paintings would change depending on sanity, but after 80+ hours I've found nothing but the Alexander painting to change -.-

You have to look VERY carefully, but the other paintings to change! It's very subtle and I was surprised when I first noticed it on my first playthrough. In the paintings, peoples faces turn to skulls, that's the main difference I remember noticing. Small things like that are really cool to find. Not sure what sanity level you need to be at though, probably "head aching / pounding"

All paintings do change like Bek stated. Just look closely enough

Yep, same here. They were supposed to change because of sanity level, but for me, some of them never change (Alexander's one for example). I dunno why.

Weird.
