Just finished Penumbra series and...

[Deu sex]

Penumbra is WAY scarier than amnesia!

I disagree ! Monsters are less scarier in penumbra. They are more intelligent, they speak in an understandable language.

In amnesia, the fact that monsters are really stupid and can't speak in an understandable language make them really like 'animals' or 'life forms from the uknown'.

And in penumbra, you can take realy more damage from monsters instead of amnesia where it's a 1 or 2 shot gameplay.

But I recommand everyone to play amnesia before penumbra black plague, because black plague is really more difficult than amnesia.

But I think all of this is a question of personal preferences ^^
