Open-ended discussion on creation and design

[Adrianis]

Concerning non-linear story lines, do any of you remembers those books where at the bottom of each page, the reader had to make a choice, and based on that choice flip to a certain page in the book? Could that sort of idea be applied to an Amnesia story line? It would definitely give the story some "replay value".

I find replay value really useless in games like Amnesia. Its just tons of more development time which could be used to polish stuff for greater one time experience.

Totally. I remember a great one called 'Knightmare' i think it was, which they made into a gameshow TV series here in the UK. 'Choose your own adventure' books as they are colloquially known.

It could be applied here, but as Khyrpa says for a very focused story driven game like this, your better off putting the time into polishing another area. Then again, it would certainly be a unique premise for a CS, if you feel up to putting enough time into it to make it worth it
