RE: Just finished Amnesia and....
I bought Amnesia and the Penumbra Collection at the same time, and I played Amnesia first. I really wish that I had played it last.
Penumbra had its tense and scary moments - especially Black Plague - but it wasn't as scary as Amnesia to me. And overall, HPL1 is a great physics engine, but it did not work as well for me as HPL2 did in Amnesia. There were times where levers and cranks would not move unless I was standing in just the right spot, and there were a few instances of it glitching out pretty nicely. Granted, those glitches were the source of much humor when they appeared, but I was spoiled by Amnesia, I think. :p
Requiem was a nice break from standard puzzle games,, which mostly seem to consist of: Find random object B and combine it with random object A to create random event C that has no bearing on the enviorment. All of Frictioinal's games have puzzles which are nice because they make sense. None of this "You must win a chess game against a cheating computer before you can go through the unlocked door two feet away." crap that I hate so much.
What has been seen, cannot be unseen.
