Amnesia: A Machine For Pigs Discussion Topic Part 1

TheChineseRoom is a brilliant choice for this. Dear Esther was a very impressive game. Sure, walking/exploration was the only actual gameplay element... It's an experimental title. I felt DE was no less immersive than a game like Amnesia. It had a creepy/unsettling atmosphere, great acting and writing, beautiful music and environments...

Korsakovia was a more gameplay heavy mod they'd made as well. Again, brilliant writing and music. A remake of that on the level of Dear Esther's would make for an amazing game. You guys need to give them a chance, you haven't seen what they can do when working on an actual commercial title outside of Dear Esther. Which, is what it is. It's not pretentious - if you want that, go look at Tale of Tales' library.
