I totally agree on the positive feedback about the effects when passing out and during the great fisheye scene!

But I also agree on the negative feedback about the too long scenes in between. During the intro I was wondering when I would finally be able to move and kept trying after each bit of the narration. Maybe you could either shorten the breaks between the narration so the player knows it's not over yet or give him a more interesting view to look at instead of the stone wall.

Then, when I was able to move, it was a bit frustrating that it was only in slow motion - and only to crawl to the next position where a new break down occurs. If this should be the real beginning of the final story and will not be filled with more gameplay in between, I would suggest to make it a bit faster by changing the slow motion for the normal pace.

Finally, I was confused by the multiple enemies scene, too. When I died and respawned one step closer to the castle I actually thought this was a bug and not the intended way to move on. Maybe you could exchange the death message there with something more clear, like "The powers of the castle can lead you to believe everything, even that you are dying..." or something. Just some line that makes clear: You thought you died and did it wrong, but actually this was the right thing to happen, move on now. I think that trying to confuse the player in the actual gameplay scene is a good idea, but the confusion has to be resolved afterwards.
