Did anyone wish it was MORE scary?

[Renegade_]

I don't think it really can be... or at least pushing too hard for "ultra scary" runs the very real risk of simply ruining the psychological thrill element and replacing it instead with campy gratuitous gore porn.

Scary monsters? No thanks, I prefer what you DON'T see: as you know, the human imagination is much more efficient at producing its own terror than anything that could be rendered graphically.

More enemy encounters? No thanks, that's merely trying my patience rather than my sanity. I prefer that brand of subtle unsettling, like entering the torture chambers only to see idle equipment and having to piece together the visuals yourself. How do you improve on that? The chillingly evil layout of the chambers so that prisoners could watch/hear their prisonmates in sheer agony, or the medieval sketches depicting their plight, with only subtly ghastly innuendos. It's simply perfectly unsettling.

Concentrate the moments of terror? No thanks, I don't want this to be a dungeon run where you merely sprint from one event to the next with no sense of terror between. A constant and pervasive sense of unease is exactly what makes the game profound, and maybe that is the only thing that could use having more of (though I'm sure there is an optimal duration before desensitization and I think they hit it almost precisely).

Perhaps the last I agree with, in making the only or few enemies seem a tad more ghastly and menacing, but I don't expect any such improvements to be noticed for anything longer than a second!
