- Perfect atmosphere and immersion (you feel like you're the character and like you're living on XIX century)
- It gives a feeling that you are alone (even more if you play alone in a dark room late at night)
- PERFECT sound work
- The fact you can't fight back makes it even more scary
- I personally like the story but much people hates it :/
- The sanity thing is a good feature but needs improvement and being afraid of the dark is very ridiculous, it should be just for scary events and not staying in dark at all.
- I think it's much replayable, and i love playing custom maps.
And in your first gameplay you should not know that the monsters are scripted, but after knowing it is a bit less scary. Af you don't know, you still get scared and think that the monsters are there. And this is what amnesia is made of, by get scared by sounds and by always thinking that is a monster right after the corner.
