I have been playing this game with headphones, in the dark, alone(sometimes with my dog sleeping on my bed which is slightly more comforting since she would probably growl if anything came into my room without me knowing it but dogs are like the primary enemy in the first episode) and I have to say, I kind of find it more scary than Amnesia. I found Amnesia's environments too inviting, they are warmly lit by candle light making some of the rooms feel more like a ski resort.
A. My camera has no night vision so you wouldn't see a thing if the lights were off.
B. Yes, for comedic effect. My solo commentaries are not interesting.
C. The camera is also there to pick up the commentary.
D. Yes, I was playing with sound. You can hear it if you listen close enough.
While I appreciate the pointers to get myself more immersed in the experience, if I intended to go full-out, I would have. Problem is, again, I'm not the bravest player of horror games out there.
Would have been nice if they didn't act like they knew everything about the game and stopped judging it. They really thought that because it was a first person game you should get guns. Not even fp just anything.
@TheyAreHere2 Oh, I knew from the beginning I wasn't going to get much in the way of weapons since I at least read up on it a little bit before playing, but my friend watching didn't, and he likes his big guns protecting him :p So needless to say, he was a little dismayed that you don't get any, heh heh.
scary as fuck...it's not that they make it so you can't kill the monsters necessarily, but more that Combat isn't as much of a par of the game the way stealth is...
i think you could have killed the moster by waiting him to get close to the door and than press the switch to kill him with electrical charge maybe that would work.
@kotzundspring Amnesia is scary ALL THE FUCKIN TIME. Penumbra is scary but it comes in bursts throughout the game. With amnesia you're on edge consistently.
You guys probably already realized this but the electrical switch was a trap for the monster. But since this video is 2 years old I'm sure this is no use anymore lol.
This game hits a fear factor of 6/10. And yes I've played it. Amnesia 1 hits fear factor of 8/10 for me and 10/10 for everyone else I know... The only reason it's not as scary for me is because I modded the monster. I like this video because it features one of my kind (computer nerd) running fir his life from a bat
If you think this is scary try to play Amnesia: the dark descent that game realy gets everyone scared.
BTW, playing in daylight and getting scared...sorry but your a real pussy in horror games try play night time and HEADPHONE on!! then your a die-hard cause horror with sunlight is like retarded....
@darroni123 I have been called McLovin at the last three jobs I held, without any suggestion from me. Apparently, I'm not safe from it on Youtube either XD
@Scout26405 when the bat breakes through the door that is locked, quickly run back to the switch that killd you because you were under the door (with the wires on top) and kill it with the electricity
you need to actually open things? i see potential for that being really freaky and really lame in some situations. plus yea games with tons of big guns arn't scary. games that you run out of ammo easily and actually have a freaky environment are scary.
You played at the daylight??? MAN play in midnight to the deep night! THEN you will be scared. By the way, you know that you played in Penumbra gameplay???
Better to play it without any friends or buddies with you, alone, at night, in a dark room, with headphones... just be careful, might be bad on ur mental health.
@Mydogisreatarted It's a very good game. A little dated looking, but the dark atmosphere and the sound designs makes up for it. The writing is also excellent.
my grandpa (he's pretty hyperact. for his age 72) played the game at night and HE scared me more than the game! every time he saw those strange things with "penises" on their belly,he said "he looks like you!" :P
i think the game is way better than silent hill, purely because it has isolated monsters which pop up everywhere and the horror of the game is kept low, so this means that you dont become too familiar with it.
overall i give it a scare rating of 9 out of 10, i played the silent hill 3 demo and that was absolutely shit - silent hill is just a gory, slapstick game
frictional games should have made it closer to the time period of Amnesia
