Amnesia: A Machine For Pigs Discussion Topic Part 2

[Bridge]

Regardless, CS's were a massive part of the game and it kept Amnesia alive for a long time and played a big role in its success.

This, Bridge. I'll buy it on a steam sale when it's crazy cheap. Horror games aren't something you can play more than once and still have fun. You know where EVERYTHING is coming from. Plus with the custom campaigns playing such a big role in TDD you'd think they would've though this through. I'm not buying a mod. Sorry. I've seen the trailers, the game uses LOTS of the same entites and textures. Most of the game came straight from TDD. Now I just feel like they're advertising a custom campaign created by a more experienced team. I hope and pray they release it at a later date, until then, I won't be buying. I'm sure I'm not the only one either.

And I ask again, do you care nothing about the story or gameplay or anything aside from modding capabilities (adding now replay value)?

EDIT: Because I have, for all intents and purposes, only played Amnesia once and I haven't played a single custom story. I don't regret buying it at full price (which is quite modest to begin with) for a second.

And there is nothing wrong with what you've done. You will never hear me saying that is a bad thing. I do care for story and what not, but with 2 delays, lack of custom story support, and lack of tools to create with... TDD set the standard, I don't understand why developers take LOVED things AWAY in sequels. On top of all that, it's been stated that AAMFP will be a shorter experience than TDD. So.. Shorter.. less replayability, removal of cs support, removal of development tools... No thanks. Just seems like a custom story to me. I'll watch a let's play. Or buy it when it's cheaper. Or I'll buy it for full price if they actually decide to release the tweaked modding tools.

To each his own. I have doubts about the game myself but I want to experience it before passing judgement.
