Spiders

[Finjy]

I have a hardcore fear of spiders...and that is why I absolutely love them in my horror games. I don't understand how a developer including the thing you're afraid of most in a horror game could possibly be a bad thing. You know what my favorite part of Dark Messiah for the PC was? Going through the spider caverns fighting (read: running like a little girl from) giant spiders, because it was one of the most incredibly intense and terrifying experiences I'd ever had in an otherwise average game.

There's no obligation to put spiders in Amnesia, but if they're in, please leave them there; this is coming from someone who freaks out upon finding tiny spiders in his home and has nightmares about them crawling in his mouth and laying eggs underneath his tongue while he sleeps.

I suggest that anyone who would actually refuse to buy a game over the presence of spiders (whether due to actual fear or 'disgust') should really grow a pair reconsider why they play horror games.
