Spiders

[chadwick]

While I won't go so far as to say that my purchase depends on it (because I just preordered it), I would like it noted that, as an arachnophobe, the only possible way I personally am going to be able to enjoy Amnesia: The Dark Descent is if it is lacking in the eight-legged enemies department. I admit I just preordered this game, in ignorance, based on horror factor alone, and perhaps in retrospect hoping that the developers of Penumbra DON'T include spiders in a game is a little silly (though if I'm lucky it won't be).

So while I think one or two normal spiders here or there would be good if only for decor (and to creep me out a bit), if this game does include large tarantula-esque beasts that I have to fight I'm going to be sad, because this will be another horror game I won't get to enjoy because of the anxiety-attack levels of freakout those things cause me. In any case I AM happy to toss $10 Frictional Games' way if only to support another creepy horror game.

So, Mr. (and Ms.) Frictional Games developers, please consider this another vote in the "Please don't include large octomobile enemies in your creepy-awesome game, if you can help it" category.
