Amnesia Doesn't Scare Me...

[Damascus Rose]

I suspect that people who don't at least get disturbed by Amnesia, have malfunctioning frontal lobes. There are genuine psychopaths who play Amnesia too. They take careless riscs because they don't register danger, and relate poorly to the characters (unless they get scared themselves, whereupon they become very aggressive). If PewDiePie isn't a psychopath, I'd be very, VERY surprised.

PewDiePie a psychopath? how?

I also notice a behavior when my friend is playing where there's a scary part and he just runs RIGHT through it (or into a monster) without seeming to care, but I know that he does get scared and running through it is his way to just, I guess pretend he isn't scared and try to ignore his feelings. It is kinda frustrating when I want to see his reaction to a scary part and he just runs through it like that... but this is off topic lol

There are many signs that PewDiePie is a psychopath. The most obvious is that he doesn't care about the kid in Happy Wheels, that he can interrupt notes about the most grizzly events with "LOL!" because he doesn't care about NPCs, and that he doesn't respect the rules in challenges. While I can't tell how he's really like when nobody is looking, the charm that he puts up is very superficial and careless. I've had relations with at least eight(!) psychopaths, so I know one when I see one.

The sad thing about Amnesia's style of play, is that if you run into and die from a monster, that monster won't respawn. Some players are using this as a conscious tactic to get through the game without having to bother with the monsters.

Not caring about the kid in happy wheels.. I honestly haven't seen a single person who DOES care about this kid, and it's a terrible example of being a psychopath.. And about interrupting notes with 'LOL', I assume you are referring to his responses to the many notes in custom stories, and to be honest it's hard to not treat a lot of those notes like jokes. Often they don't seem very realistic. A prime example of PewDiePie NOT being a psychopath, is to watch his first playthrough videos of amnesia. Just like most people, he was taking it seriously and having normal reactions to the heavy atmosphere and the scares. Just because he treats games as a joke sometimes doesn't make him a psychopath, lots of people do it.

And about monsters not re-spawning after killing you being 'sad', there's a good reason for it. The first time you see the monster, you know where it is and the scare has passed. If it re-spawned when you died and you had to deal with it again, not only would that be frustrating, but it would also be repetitive, and that's what Frictional is trying to minimize. If people are just running into monsters on purpose to deal with them easier, they must not be immersing themselves very well, because would you really do that in real life? no...
