It's Official, Polygon Is Full Of Crap!

So, there you have it, the rumors are true, it is not just the preview build, you really can't die in this game, which (for me anyway) removes a huge part of the tension, the fear that, should you get caught, you will have to go through those horrors all over again.

We still don't know what the consequences of failure are. What if, instead of forcing you to replay a sequence (which would probably be less scary the second time around), the game forces you to play a different, even scarier sequence? I think that would be very effective.

With that logic though, you could potentially miss parts of the game if you really suck at escaping, which wouldn't be any better.
