FG's appeal ended together with Penumbra?

Honestly, I sort of get where you're coming from on the replayability front. I sometimes get the urge to replay BP and I don't have the sames urges towards TDD. TDD's story was boring and so was the level design, so maybe that.

I loved the puzzles in Penumbra, miss them dearly.

And I thought the flashlight wasn't obsolete in Penumbra. The eery green glow and its light didn't make me feel as safe as the flashlight did but it was a great tool for sure.

TDD was more of a game that only cared about the scares and because of that the rest suffered. Penumbra had more overarching themes, emotions, narrative and such which made going through the games a treat. Plus the computer boot up jingle is the X-Files theme! Always made me feel happy inside haha. I hope their super secret project is more akin to Penumbra than TDD.

All in all, a respectable opinion on FG's games. Personally AMFP, so far, has been a much better experience for me than TDD was. So there's that. And trust me, once *some* people find this thread there will be many a reaction. I miss the state of the fanbase before TDD released, all of the sudden things got... irritating.
