Hiding Aspect *possible spoilers*

[Kotch]

Did you like the fact that the only real hiding spots were dark areas, or did you hate that you weren't able to hide in wardrobes like in Amnesia: The Dark Descent?

I've played the game twice and the first time I played I hated it. I didn't really realize that you were just suppose to try and stick to the darker areas, such as the area after you have to fill up the 6 furnaces with coal. There were about three monsters and the first time I played, once one of them saw me, I just stood there and let it kill me because I had nowhere to go. The second time I played I just stuck to the shadows and they never saw me.

I just want to know peoples thought on this aspect.
