RE: La Caza Full Release

I really think La Caza does a great job of setting itself apart from the competition in terms of mod/addons for Amnesia. For one thing, the setting isn't "You're in a haunted mansion/house/castle. Go run around and get scurred". It goes more along the lines of Amnesia itself, and tries to find a more realistic setting with significantly paranormal elements added to it.

A lot of the environmental themes remind me a great amount of the crypt dungeons of ES: Oblivion. It's very heavy in terms of puzzle elements - and to be honest, the first few were a bit too frustrating for me. The timer on getting all the levers down wasn't particularly forgiving. It's certainly not Riven by any means in terms of puzzle difficulty, it just could've used another 5 seconds so I didn't get a headache trying to pull it off.

The major scares are well-timed, and aren't in the predictable "You got a key item! Here comes the monster" fashion. I involuntarily put my hand over my mouth when I opened a particular door and felt the pulse jump up.

As others have said before, the journal voice acting isn't necessarily top notch, but the rest of the VA is very impressive.

Overall, it's certainly in my top 5. It goes in directions most custom stories haven't bothered trying, and has some very memorable moments(particularly near the end) Great work. russ - the hard work paid off Smile
