Please don't speak for other people.

I wasn't speaking for you and if you can't take an opinion then you will struggle in life.

"For people saying it's story based please don't lie to yourselves, it wasn't scary... end of story." doesn't sound like you can take another opinion serious. I say it's story based and I find it was scary (not on the same level like TDD), end of story... so? Which genre would match to aamfp in your opinion? Imo it's a great horror tale in the style of HPL.

What I meant is that there was no real challenge presented, in TDD this was perfectly executed but in aamfp like I literally just stood there staring at an enemy and all it did was squeek for ages before it started to attack which was then slow. The lack of sanity effects didn't help things either. All i'm saying is it seemed to be too easy on the player.

The way you worded it very well seem like you were:

The bolded sentence implies that the people who did think it was scary were completely ignorant, and weren't really scared.

If that's not trying to force your opinion on other people I don't know what is. Even if you didn't mean this initially I would greatly recommend you word your sentences so you don't come across as that way.

No not at all, if people did find it scary then great because I wish i did... I just didn't get anything from it. What I actually meant in my post is that it seems to me like people are just trying to be convinced that it was scary. But maybe I just expected too much, i've been waiting for this for like a year or more and with all the hype I expected something that was a little more hard hitting...

"For people saying it's story based please don't lie to yourselves"

That is not an opinion, you're implying that people who say the game is good are in denial.

I sure as hell am not, I'm serious when I say the game terrified me and I'm serious when I say that I think it's a brilliant game.
