AMFP Member Review Thread

I posted my review of the game here.

Main points from that review:

(AAMFP is) passable as a horror game. Very tense moments of buildup and scary as fuck monster encounters. Story is also great, not as believable or as engaging as the original, but still a nice concept.

ATDD felt very vast to me. Through the hub-based exploration structure, I thought that my journey through the game was my own experience because I could visit all the places in my own order and solve all the puzzles in my own way. AAMFP was just me watching the adventures of Oswald.

Daniel > Oswald:

Daniel is almost entirely a victim of circumstance.His situation was extreme, and we know that he honestly feels guilty and has deep regret for everything he's done. There's the most important implication: 'Daniel could have been me.'

None of us could have been Oswald. He really doesn't seem too different from your average cynical teenager who just discovered that the world can be a piece of shit and just wants to kill everything.

Also, Alexander beats Oswald's shadow self in terms of villainy by a large margin. The baron has no remorse, and all his vile actions are done for personal gain. At least ATDD made you experience the torture rooms and see Daniel's insanity up close. All we know in AAMFP was that a ton of organ laceration and surgery happened to the people that got thrown into the machine, but we never see or hear their personal suffering.

Overall rating: 7.3 / 10
