RE: What do you think is the #1 monster in the Frictional Games Penumbra & Amnesia?

The Water Horror is good because you can't really see it, thus its attacks can come as a surprise! The water horror made me wonder, rather than scare me. Just seeing water splashes without seeing what's underneath kept me worried. I jumped into the water later on, thinking it was just a hallucination. Boy I was wrong.
And the brute, well that would be something my mind would rather keep away from...
EDIT: 450 posts. Yay! I wish it was a hallucination!
Sorry for the Brute comment (forgive me?). I don't think that stuff myself, but glad it didn't appear in the game. I decided to remove it, feeling bad I put it there in the first place.
Congratulations on 450 posts pal! There's nothing to forgive.
The brute managed to bring quite some scares in Amnesia, but the wormy gave me nightmares. One nightmare that remained, read on.
How the nightmare started: I was in a forest, with nothing but a knife, an empty canteen, and a note saying "It is coming... You do better hurry". While I walked in that forest, I swear I heard the worm's distant cry from the game ringing in my ears. I just said "It isn't real. It is just me, walking around, wiggling my ass around here." When I started to feel vibrations, I knew my mind wasn't just fooling around. And this was not the worst part. I suddenly heard trees fall in the distance, and that is when my mind got corrupted by the image I saw. It was the giant worm, just coming after me like "Hi! I'm coming to eat you!". While this may not seem scary, this was when I first encountered the thingy. The horror, the horror...
Next thing I know, I suddenly jump out of my bed, with only one thought in my head: RUN! Little did I know that I woke up, at 4:21 AM. I quickly stood up on the bed, and started blindly running. When my head kissed the wall, I fell back, and... my memory got fuzzy after that.
Didn't have nightmares of the brute, but it was a pretty terrifying encounter. The wormy doesn't scare me anymore (lol yeah right). Thanks pal, didn't mean to overreact.
Never had a dream or nightmare about the worm, but that is one scary dream! This is why I voted for the Worm in this poll, in real life I'd rather face an Amnesia Brute than the Penumbra Worm! At least one can hide from a Brute. You can confuse a Brute, but not a worm....

You're underground so you should have seen it more times or in... dare I say it.. groups!
If someone can add it to Amnesia, I'll be sure to add it to a Custom Story! (Currently no one, including me, has been successful in adding it in. The Dog, Spider, and Infected [minus flashlight or axe/pickaxe] are in though)

The other monsters from Penumbra have been added (used the dog in one of my CS) to Amnesia. And they function pretty well.
What I like about the brute is its "one-hit-one-kill" ability. Mostly, that would happen, especially when your health isn't maxed. The grunt seemed terrifying firsthand, but then it got a little stale. And that is where the brute decided to step in. Boy, what a surprise.

I like the Brute and Grunt for their regeneration. Even though small, it makes it challenge to hurt them. Yes, the Brutes one-hit-kill (which he trains be fencing with other Brutes [which I almost typed before]) is dangerous.
Know what would de-scarify a Brute if its Blade got stuck in a wall/beam and, when trying to pull it out, he gets free but the blade is still stuck (and he doesn't realize it)

Wow, I suggest that you guys put spoiler tags around the long-ass quotes in your posts, it's hard to really focus on what you are writing.
