RE: next game?

I honestly think Frictional might try to move away from total survival horror.

When you read a lot of the blogs or interviews, they're craving a new direction for their games to go in. Each new game becomes more existential horror and think piece. More artistic.

I wouldn't be surprised if the monster element changes again for the next game and becomes less prevalent. Many of the people in these forums liked or loved the monsters, but think that's somewhat with fan boy glasses on.

It's outsiders (who are a primary target audience) that generally found them a bit annoying and took away from the story. The fact that there was a survey on these forums shows they noticed those comments.

Also, Amnesia had a LOT of lets' plays. It's part of why so many rushed out to get AMFP and were ultimately disappointment with it's lack of scares element. SOMA is even harder for a lets play to sell, because they can't scream and swear at the screen every five minutes to please their audience. It's a think piece.

Yes, most of the people here could appreciate a slower lets play and discussion on the themes of SOMA, but let's face it; a large portion of the 8-12 year olds who watch lets plays want crazy drama and LOTS of swearing.
