The two trailers marketed were made to give the impression of a Amnesia like horror game. I know it, they know it, you know it. Stop being coy and try being a little honest about something glaringly obvious.

I agree with this. The monster breaking down the door was clearly intended to bring in the Amnesia fans and make them think the gameplay would follow the TDD approach.

I haven't finished MFP yet, I've spent four hours on it and I've only just completed the level with the centrifuge. I am enjoying it a lot, and give full credit to TCR for nailing the atmosphere (it was a bit patchy early on, but from the piston room on it really picks up).

But I am distinctly missing the TDD mechanics they removed (not to mention the lack of interactive objects), and the centrifuge puzzle is the first which has actually approached the complexity of the best TDD puzzles.

The atmosphere was nailed very well. Better than TDD in my opinion. The music and sound were brilliant. Their sound producer is extremely talented. They make pretty good decisions when it comes to voice actor assets. Even gameplay wise I could forgive, as I enjoyed Dear Esther. I happen to like interactive books and I'd like to see more of them. But what I am sick of is companies thinking they can get away with dishonestly hyping a game through false marketing. I am truly, truly bitter about that. Just stop it.
