Amnesia AMFP SPOILER THREAD *ENTER AT YOUR OWN RISK*

[blueberry]

Like the previous post said, i watched some videos too, but there wasnt any terror meter sounds when the thing was near... Only squeals that screwed my ears up :I

I've heard the new terror meter in gameplay. At first I dismissed it on the Pewdiepie video, but I've consistently heard it in all monster encounters of gameplay, it's rather subtle. It's much higher pitched than the original, I don't really know if I like it more than the original.

Source?

Playing it. Oh My GOD!

[Paddy™]

I'm watching the game files trickle down my ADSL line like tar through a hollow needle. This is the true horror.

I'm getting the game from GOG, so no pre-loading or the like is possible. Gotta just sit here like the dictator of a failed state awaiting execution while you Steaming Steamers are already playing it. A pox upon all of you.

EDIT: Aaaaaaaaaaaaand we have lift off. See you on the other side, muthafuckas!

Has to share this from the member review thread.

Disappointing

TDD was much better in both playing and storytelling.

AMFP fails because of these reasons:

No terror meter.

No Inventory (inventory forces you to think and combine items to complete tasks).

The monsters or the pig men if you like wasn't scary, yea they was
unsettling but not the stuff of nightmares like the Grunt and the Brute.
The yellow horrifying eyes of the Grunt and the haunting echo of the
Brute surpasses the pig monsters in all areas in being scary.

Many plot holes and unexplained things, two notes mentions brenneburg
and one note metions the orb but thats it? That doesn't make it a
indirect sequel, not at all. Hard to belive this was happening in the
same universe, honestly just thinking of that destroys that awesome
feeling surrounding TDD and its mytical tale of other dimensions and
inhuman beings.

The attack on London could have been done better (more corpses, stop spawning naked corpes... (wtf?) more people).

The atmosphere was bad...yea Iam saying it because in TDD you were ALONE
in a ancient castle in the middle of the woods far away from any help
at all. In AMFP you run around in London and its underparts , it didnt
make me feel like i could relate to the place like TDD did, we are all
afraid of haunted castles in the woods, not the streets of London.

To short, did it in under 4 hours and no I didn't rush it.

This would have been much better if FG did it without The Chinese Room...sorry but thats the truth.

I will see AMFP as non-canon so It dont destroy that awesome feeling TDD had.

Sorry for bad english.

Apparently he sacrificed them in aztec style, tearing their hearts out. That's probably why we their illusions do it in front of Oswald.

Too bad you splurged $20 on a good game.

That electo pig 'shocked' the hell out of me when I saw it! ;D

What I thought was most interesting and pretty deep was the story. There's a serious message in it.(At least to me.)

The game is fantastic and the atmosphere....just DAMN, the first part that really freaked me out was the part were you deal with coal and there are these three switches, then boom lights out(then that music). XD

There were times though when it was just to quiet and that just made me more tense. If you really get into the story and atmosphere, it is great game. I don't know why people nitpick though, seem's like they'er just hating The Chinese Room because it's The Chinese Room.( which is a great company) and they did very well.

FG goes for the best.
