Amnesia: The Dark Descent

I really wished there was a good sequel to this game becouse i wonder when are we gonna get a good amnesia sequel and we got machine for pigs that Meh alright...but man i always wondered when are we gonna get a amnesia sequel or remake to make me satisfied anyways back to the point.

This game is just a masterpiece no other horror game as achieved its level, sure there is outlast,resident evil 2 remastered and etc but man in 2010 how can u see these types of games i sure havent anyway i am not giving 10/10 becouse some parts like are not as scary as some and some puzzles are hard to players to get through but anyways 8/10 solid game

The atmosphere of this game. It is great. The game is really tense and creepy. The game is effective and it is a satisfying experience. The location the game takes place in is awesome. The voice acting is well done. The game is a good looking game.

Amnesia: The Dark Descent is undoubtedly the most terrifying gaming experience i've ever had. This game is a masterpiece.

In this game you play as Daniel. A man stricken with Amnesia and on a quest for answers. The story in this game isn't the best thing ever but i was intrigued the whole time and it deals with questions of guilt amongst other things. The voice acting is very good and the game has multiple endings so you can conclude the story in the way that fits you.

In the game, you complete a series of tasks/puzzles to progress the story and you must hide from enemies whilst managing your sanity and light resources. The levels are very well designed hub levels that remove the feeling of linearity because you have to do a lot of exploring if you want to find resources and things to progress. The interaction involved in opening doors and moving objects its great because it adds that physical immersion to the game. The stealth works well and its utterly terrifying when the enemies see you and give chase. The puzzles are solid too.

The best thing about this game is definitely the atmosphere. There is constantly this crippling sense of dread produced by incredible music, sound design, terrifying environments and enemies and just well paced gameplay. It was so scary that i had to stop every 20 minutes because I honestly thought i might of had a heart attack. It builds up the tension so much that when an enemy does appear and attack you it utterly shocks you to the core. I have never before or since had such an intense fear playing a video game.

Amnesia: The Dark Descent is a special game that most other horror games have tried (and failed in my opinion) to encapsulate. What an amazing experience that i will never forget.

10/10.

What else can I say? This game has it all. Atmosphere, music, gameplay and a legacy. The story is just amazing and has it's twists and moral questions. The gameplay is also amazing, using physics and freedom of grabbing objects. The game is already getting quite old, but the graphics have aged well and the game's custom story system still gets new creations every year from fans of the game. The devs haven't forgotten the game either and added new content in 2018. And the soundtrack, it's beautifully done. A work of art. I give a 10/10 and a great applause to every writer, composer and programmer of this game. Good job.

The Dark Decent is currently one of the best horror games I've ever played. Throughout the entire game I was terrified but I had this motivation to keep pushing on. That motivation was from how interesting and fun the game is.

The gameplay stands out a lot in the horror genre. You could say it's a simple walking simulator, but as it gets more in depth it really shows off how unique it is. One of the mechanics is sanity, if you don't keep your sanity high enough you may start experiencing problems with the mind, causing hallucinations and an inability to see. As you can tell, it can get really scary if your sanity isn't high enough. Light plays a major factor here as well. You need to make sure to manage light, if you don't your sanity will fall and dangerous consequences may stop your path. The enemies are also an interesting factor, sometimes you're just relying on sound, with the option of seeing them. Each type of enemy has its own sound, so you'll be able to tell if you can hide or outrun it. There was one sound that I never saw the enemy that matched it, it sound a lot heavier and I'm glad I never poked my head around the corner.

I didn't quite understand the full story after I finished it, but from what I played I could gather the basics. The story is presented through collectable notes and voices inside your head, so if you are not paying attention you'll miss the plot. It was interesting enough to keep me playing till the end. It's probably something I'm going to read and watch a lot about.

There were a few technical problems, like audio randomly being in my left ear only or me falling out the map. However, it doesn't really make the experience worse but kind of adds to it. When I feel out the map I thought it was a feature and crapped myself in the process.

To conclude, Amnesia: The Dark Decent is an amazing and unique horror game that has left an impact in the horror genre, possibly inspiring many more games I haven't played yet. It's a master of visual and audio immersion, which in combination creates one of the best horror games of all time.
