#Amnesia the dark descent movie movie

Amnesia is not the first game to implement a no-weapon system.

This is what a survival horror game is supposed to be about. In Amnesia you have no method of defense at all. has nearly perfect reflexes.Īmnesia is different. If you have a rocket launcher, an assault cannon, and are covered in body armor, what exactly can you be afraid of? Not to mention your character in F.E.A.R. There is no feeling of survival in the game at all. Most games that call themselves 'survival horror' fail at making the game about survival. I found this part pretty funny because I thought to myself, 'if this was not Daniel, but Gordon Freeman, he would have used the crowbar to hack the enemies to death'. There is an instance in the game when Daniel (you) finds a crowbar. To create the feeling of 'you' the game is played entirely in first-person mode. Your character, Daniel, is completely defenseless. In Amnesia you have no weapons whatsoever. When I finally got everything in the Choir and I found the exit door out of there - which was all luck, since I had no idea where I was going, I just walked and walked until I found it - I was relieved to never have to go into that place again.Īmnesia does successfully create a survival horror game. It was not a pleasant feeling to be in the Choir, though the rooms that you explore in the Choir are cool.

Which is a huge room (not even a room, it is outside) with red fog surrounding you, I had no idea where I was going. I was not afraid to play, but there was a feeling of not wanting to be there. There were instances in the game when I said to myself 'oh great, do I really have to venture down into there?', in particular with the Storage room and the Prison cells. Asking me to review a horror game is like asking a color blind person to review a picture of a rainbow. But as I said I seem not to be bothered when playing video games or watching movies. Is the game scary as people say? Well, I did not really find it scary. So I figured I should play the game to see what it is about. The reviews also gave very positive reviews of this game. Some even called it to be the most horrifying game of all time. Online I heard about Amnesia and how it is the most horrifying game made in the past 5 years. But other than that I never seen any movies that bothered me or even made me disturbed. What the fuck? That was really scary because it made no sense whatsoever.

I turn on this movie on TV once and I see a bunch of naked people walking around with masks of bulls. I still have no idea what was up with that. Well, actually there was one movie that I found disturbing. It is for this reason that horror never scared me. So when there are dangerous scenes in the game that I should be concerned about, I am just not too concerned about, because I know that if I die all I have to do is load a save and replay that scene. The general rule of gaming is to save a lot, and that is what I often do. Furthermore, if I die (in the game) all I have to do is load a save. I guess it is because I realize that I am watching a movie or playing a game so that I have nothing to be afraid of.

I do not know why, but the horror never scares me. I have never been a fan of horror games or horror movies. I got this game by the end of December and finished it about 2-3 weeks ago. I know it is late to review a video game that was released by October 2010 in January 2011, but it is not too late.
