Well it pretty much makes the title false which bugs me.
If you're just wondering about whether AMFP will feature amnesia or not, then the creator has already answered that within the story description:
Spoiler below!
It will.
Well alright then, I officially have no reason to complain (or worry). Hope they do a good job with it.

RE: Custom stories with Machine for Pigs?

From memory HPL3 is still under development. It would make sense that we will have HPL2 for A machine for Pigs, and then HPL3 for whatever comes next (here's hoping there is a next, FG rocks Smile). It's not an unreasonable assumption that custom stories will be an option again, as FG love the added 'replay value' it gives their games. If I had to guess, the only differences between The Dark Descent and A Machine for Pigs will be added/changed textures models etc. I sure hope so, I love making custom stories, and I don't want to have to re-learn everything. Smile

RE: Is Amnesia: A Machine for Pigs the game they've been talking about?

While I too wouldn't mind if it weren't as outright terrifying. I suggest you take a look at Korsakovia. It was a free HL2 they did before the Dear Esther remake. It is pretty terrifying. It's rough around the edges and recent source engine updates cause it to crash. But it was very interesting and effective.

There's a standalone version of this game?
I don't have half life 2 to play.

Nope, you must own Half Life 2 to play it. It's pretty cheap though and it's worth it.

You shouldn't have to buy HL2. Just get the Source SDK. This allows you to play HL2 mods without owning the game.
