I hope there will be a demo for SOMA soon.

Somehow I have the bad feeling that the robots are less scary than the old Grunts or Brutes.
Because robots are no living creatures.

Amnesia's fear based a lot of the monsters' look. SOMA's fear however based on the atmosphere and the shocking things that happened to the employees and such so you can expect that the monster will look less scary. Frictional Games could make the monsters look much scarier, but they didn't.

They seem to think they are. Does it matter if they really are?

On the other hand for me it makes them much creepier.

i think living things are more vulnerable, while non living, semi organic things are more frightening. with living things, you're like, ok, i can just treat this like a shark or a bear, just a new species of organism i've never encountered before.
