Amnesia: A Machine For Pigs Discussion Topic Part 1

Registered to make a point, but since I can't seem to make a thread of it's own, I'll just post it here.

Why do you even compare Dear Esther with Amnesia? They are completely different genres.
For me, Dear Esther was more like an interactive book instead of an actual game. I liked that aspect pretty much, as it was something you rarely see in modern games.
You may have your own opinion of Dear Esther, but it has nothing to do with Amnesia and does not represent it in any way.
