What do you think of the game's length?

I haven't finished the game yet, however I estimate I'm about halfway through.

I have a tendency to think that most games I play (aside from open world sandbox style games) are too short. This is mostly because I become so wrapped up in the story and engaged by the gameplay that time absolutely flies by. The small amount of disappointment I feel at the end is entirely because the experience was so enjoyable, and its human nature to not want good things to come to an end.

However, at no stage have I ever thought to myself a game should have been priced cheaper because it didn't live up to my expectations of how long it should be.

It comes down to a matter of pacing. If its appropriate for the type of game, putting in "filler" sections where not a lot happens might make sense. For good story tellers, this provides contrast to briefly relieve tension between the exciting bits. For bad story tellers, they pad out the story to make it look more impressive.

Personally I think the pacing so far in Amnesia is pretty good. You go into a new room, look around, maybe read a note, pick up an object, then hide in the corner like a baby when you hear something scratching at the door.

Quality over quantity, always. Keep up the awesome work, Frictional!
