Ok my review of the game (sorry for my English)

First perhaps not being a native English was the problem for me, the other was that i was trying hard to read or see the less about the game possible before release, the only thing i saw was the last trailer and that was a problem, because it gave me a totally different idea about the game than what was presented to me on the final game, for example, the scariness factor about the pig monster was very good on the trailer, but imo very weak on the game.
About the game, to me the problems started right at the start, with the very slow pacing of the game, i was not expecting a shooter or a crazy action game mind you, but the long time without even seeing any kind of credible danger was just of putting, then the scary dead children running around just didn't worked for me either.
Has i said above i'm not a native english speaker (i'm portuguese) and so i need to think harder to comprehend what i read or listen in English, and even tho i know there are portuguese BR subtitles, it has enough differences to the portuguese PT way of talking and writing, to be off putting to me, (sorry to my brazilian brothers) so i decided to stay with English subtitles, and so because of the game focus manly on the story that was a problem to me. I would love that some parts of the story could be presented more using the environment, just like the gramophones or a painting, etc, instead of only papers. The other thing that i found strange, was how unconsciously to me the monsters seemed to be more harmless than anything, instead of being that really terrible and frightening killing machines

The good things (yes i think theres good things ), the level design, character design and sound design was fantastic, the voice acting was also good but it could have add more power to it on some Mandus lines,

Spoiler below!

his voice seemed to much desensitized when he realized he killed his boys for example

, the puzzles were also very well thought out and never seemed out of place, nor very complicated, and lastly i liked how the level changed sometimes, for example how i passed a door just to look back and see it gone, does were really some WTF moments.
