I'm installing Requiem as we speak, this sounds like exactly what I'm looking for.

You're crazy. Just play puzzle games then '-'
I won't feel more scared without enemies. I'd just be able to get on with the puzzles and the story if they weren't there.
I don't like Pineapple, and if I have it on a pizza, it ruins the pizza for me. The enemies are the pineapple on my pizza. I'd enjoy the pizza if it wasn't tripping me up with enemies between every puzzle so I could get on with the stuff I enjoy in the game.
I agree that the enemies really compliment the horror side of Amnesia. And I can see how it can be terrifying to be fleeing from them, hiding in wardrobes hoping they didn't see you. Everyone I know who's played Amnesia were pissing their pants at these parts, but whenever I'm hiding in a wardrobe, I'm just bored. Rather than worrying about being found, I'm waiting for the enemy to just sod off.
It's not what the developers were trying to achieve, I can see that. It'd probably be safe to say that the experience Amnesia offers is lost on me. And I love Amnesia. Which is why I want to enjoy it so much. But I just can't.
