Why HPL2?

[Kreekakon]

Here's a nice question for you all you modders over here on the FG forums. Over all the engines out there, why did you pick to focus on HPL2 (As a primary engine of choice, or otherwise)? I've heard many other engines are much more capable of doing more varied things, being able to more easily fulfill the gaming ideas you've locked away in your brain. So why choose HPL2? There must've been a reason why you did it over other engines like Source, Unreal, or others.

My reason is that I'm fairly new to modding, and I wanted to try something simple. Seeing as how much I enjoyed Amnesia, I tried delving into its area of modding, and was delighted to find it fairly straightforward in most cases. That being said, I never tried any other engines, so I might be missing out on some other stuff out there
