Amnesia Doesn't Scare Me...

[Cranky Old Man]

"While I'm sure that nobody is crying over Happy Wheels, normal people go
"Wow, that's gotta hurt." or "Lol, that's some awful physics right
there.". To PewDiePie concerns are always jokes."

After the first few times, yeah, people say things like that, but after a lot of time playing you just start to see it as funny. Also the style of happy wheels is very cartoon like so it's pretty hard to relate to real life.

"While many notes can be terrible, he's not laughing at them being
terrible. He's making puns instead of even trying to read the notes or
associate to these NPCs. He doesn't concern himself with their fates one
bit."

This also doesn't make him a psychopath, it shows that he just isn't bothered to care. A lot of people just skip over notes or laugh at them because they aren't taking them seriously.

"Also, this shows that PewDiePie doesn't care about the atmosphere or
plot the creators were trying to establish, or that his repetitious
jokes aren't even funny to a lot of his viewers. He just goes with what
works according to the comments section. He doesn't care about anything
else than him being immediately frightened."

This isn't even related to him being a psychopath lol, it's just him trying to get views using his own ways. And not caring about plot makes him a psychopath how..?

"Yes, a prime example of PewDiePie NOT being a psychopath, is to watch
his first playthrough videos of Amnesia, which bring me to something
disturbing: Psychopathy is a combination of a weak frontal lobe, and it
being damaged from traumatic experiences like child abuse at an early
age. "

I fail to see how this is related...

"PewDiePie states in the beginning that Amnesia is his first horror game,
because he gets too scared of horror games. I honestly believe that
Amnesia drove PewDiePie insane."

Seriously... what the hell? How could this possibly work.. and what are your reasons for saying this??


"I've never actually played Forbidden Siren - just watched LPs - but I
don't find those games repetitve. If I fail, I fail. It's just one
monster, and after difficult sections there will usually be a
checkpoint."

Since I have never played this game or even heard about it, I have no idea what the monsters may be like. But I know that 'checkpoints' in any game make it feel more like a game than an experience, and amnesia isn't really meant to be a 'beat the level' kind of game (as I'm SURE you know).

Well, this PewDiePie topic turned into a much bigger deal than I had anticipated. I don't think anything short of a CAT scan can convince either party. My original point is that if you find that you don't get affected by people being tortured, or have a difficulty getting scared by monsters chasing you in horror games, then there might be something something wrong with your brain. I'm not sure if something can be done about brain damage other than eating sources of anti-oxidants, and maybe you should avoid horror games in the future, if you know that you may take damage from them that may affect your real life. As much as I'd like people to play Amnesia, people who are too young or frail, shouldn't.

There are lots of checkpoints in Amnesia too, but you don't notice them unless you die, as "Saving checkpoint..." isn't displayed. Even the beginning of every level is a checkpoint in most games.
