Just to clarify:

1. Interactivity was not removed, just toned down for a good reason. It was said if they left all objects interactable you'd need a beefy computer just to play it. To be completely honest with you, I didn't notice it much. I didn't spend too much of the first game looking for random shit to throw around, and for me it didn't really matter this time around either.

2. Yeah, it's linear. So was the first one. So was Outlast. So are a lot of good games in general like Portal 2. I disagree when you guys say there's no exploration. The levels are pretty big, and you do need to explore and search desks and etc for notes. I'm pretty big on exploring, and I didn't feel particularly restricted at any point. The only difference in the first one was you weren't just looking for notes and you'd get to backtrack to complete a puzzle. I'll admit, the puzzles were pretty easy this time around and I missed the complex ones but hey, they were original.

Like I've said in my review earlier, the only thing I felt disappointed about was the lack of encounters and stalking/chase music. I was hoping to be hiding in a cage and wait out a patrolling piggy, but that never happened. I only ever hid twice, I was chased only twice (both of those times were scripted), and I never got to slam a door in a monster's face to slow them down.

If TCR's ever up for DLC and/or updating MFP with a "Super Scary Patch", those are things I'd hope to see.

I totally agree with everything you said here. I like exploring too and I actually didn't notice how linear the game was until I got inside the machine. But in that part it makes sense.

I just watched Mathasgames livestreaming A:AMFP and he had to hide from the pig under the church. He stayed in the dark and stopped using the lantern. The pig looked like it was looking for Mandus and left, slowly. I guess it all depends on how you play.

When I did, I was scared and I hid a lot. And I even closed a door on the monster's face near the centrifuge. It was the door that disappears so imagine how I felt...

An update with scarier monsters would be great.

What about letting players make custom stories with the pig monsters, but making them behave like the grunt or the brute? That would allow us to have scarier pigs.
