I think not. It's more immersing when you can read something about objects.
Penumbra did it great. Amnesia feels too empty. there's less to explore.

I think you should offer a course: "Three easy step becoming a online bigot (free horrible english grammar course included with a order over 200$)"

Penumbra only didn't have that part when Philip loses his glowstick and flashlight and he has to use flares on some creepy dark corridor. I was actually expecting that on some parts of Penumbra like the sewers in Black Plague. Or spider tunnels in Overture. They are screaming for that creepyness.
I hope next Amnesia would have this... HINT HINT
Cry of Fear (A HL1 mod) has this, puts you on the edge of your seat CONSTANTLY during that bit.



I've come to learn to not fear the living, nor the dead... But the monsters that hide in closets.

Spoiler below!
Oh gods, I started freaking out when *low battery* flashed on the phone
Agreed on both points, flares were sometimes great because they covered more radius than the glowstick, but they were pretty ineffective.
Cry of Fear had you panicking, just hoping that around that corner there was another flare so you wouldn't be left in the dark.




Sure nice guys finish last, but doesn't that just mean they live longer?
