What many people aren't realizing, is that although it is called Amnesia: A Machine For Pigs, THIS GAME IS NOT THE ORIGINAL AMNESIA. I liked this game for everything that is was and was so so so amazed by the time the game finished. While the monster scares were numbered low compared to the original Amnesia game, the game to me was terrifying in it's own aspect, and that, to me, is perfect. This game has lived up to my expectations of what it was like, and there were a few moments where I was scared out of my wits! What I've noticed, was this game relies HEAVILY on the sounds. I played the entire game with earbuds in and the volume on the computer all the way up. It made the game TERRIFYING! So the people who think this game is worthless, try playing it the way I played it. If you don't have headphones on, the music and sounds don't sound HALF as scary as they do with headphones on. I loved everything in this game. This game seemed more realistic to me than the original game. I don't know about other people, but the sheer idea of machinery scares the crap out of me! I sat there for five minutes in one part of the game just watching the pistons turn and the sheer magnitude of the machinery amazed me and scared me! The vastness of all the maps were amazing. The details and everything was amazing. The music, especially with earbuds in was my favorite of all, I think. The voice acting and story line was fantastic. I liked going around and seeing some items from the original Amnesia but also enjoyed that this game is it's own entity and has its own properties and a uniqueness I have never seen anywhere else. I aboslutely loved this game and loved that Brennenburg was mentioned in a few notes. :) I am speechless about this game. I cannot wait to play this again and again and again. Money well spent and it was most definitely worth the wait. I especially loved how some doors disappeared and things were twisted around, it really added to the effect of the game! 10/10!
