Reflections/thoughts on Amnesia

[Duskofdead]

I just think it's a very bizarre thing to even notice or criticize. Are there really people who try various games listening for audio occlusion or how much reverb there was or whatever else?

It's beyond anal nitpicking, imho. I could not begin to tell you what sort of audio tech was used for this game, nor could, I doubt, any non-audiophile. The sound was great and had the effect it was supposed to, it created a tense ambience, and it was much better done than in most games.

In most games sound is simply there, and you can turn it off or replace it with your own MP3's and it makes zero difference to the feel of the game whatsoever. This game is the complete opposite.
