Amnesia - Scary As Hell?
    #14336229 - 04/22/11 11:49 PM (12 years, 9 months ago)

Who has played this?  I am thinking about purchasing it to play on Steam.  Is is really scary as hell?  I watched some youtube videos and people were crying and stuff but it did not seem that scary.  I was, however, rather disconnected from the whole experience as I was watching it via video.

I love games like Silent Hill and Dead Space and Fatal Frame...do I dare play this one?  I think I will.

Can anyone else report on their experiences?  I will add mine as I get them.

Yes while I was posting this I convinced myself that I should purchase this game.

Never played it, I've only seen videos about it. It looks awesome though, however the people in those videos exaggerate a little too much. They don't even sound believable when they scream and shit.

I just got it, seems pretty dope so far. The longer you stay in the darkness, the more insane your guy gets. And no option to fight shit lol, its run and hide or die. Tense.

I played the demo for a bit and I was pretty creeped out, peaked my interest and I look forward to playing it more after the holiday weekend is over.

Reminds me of Thief. I had played the demo, and I was discovered once - so I tried to attack the guard. I died immediately. That was the scariest game I'd played because it was so "real"....

If you do what they say at the beginning and set your gamma correctly and wear headphones the game is awesome.

Not much scares me as in fear but the game will certainly startle the fuck out of you if you have the headphones on w/ the volume up. :lol:  Great game for the price!

yeah! the only thing you have really is an oil lamp :sad: i don't think it's really scary though, you jus need to haul ass to a safe spot and run from monsters and find oil thingies for your lamp :squirrelnut:

if you like the demo i think you should get it. i used to play it all the time when i bought it for my ex lol.

you should look into rule of rose, it's very silent hill-esque

I played the demo a little. I dont really do well with scary games, especially since i dont like running through anything. i like to make sure i find all the little things. So far its pretty scary especially playing in my basement at 2 in the morning in the dark with headphones

I was playing it for like an hour.

I also have these big beefy dj headphones so the sound is really good.


I stopped playing at the part when you can't be in the water, it gets tense there.


It was kind of spooky though, but all around a cool idea making him go insane the longer he's in the dark.
