Who Also Does this...?

[Cranky Old Man]

It's not about playing it in a different way. What you just mentioned, players do to play it in a more interesting and often more challenging way. Running into monsters is what less gifted people (be they children or otherwise) who cannot play the game do because they can't play the game the first time around.

Who does that on their first time? Who would get that idea? I mean, in order to run face on into the monster means that you aren't scared enough, and in that case what is the point of hiding, because you're not scared.

I was too scared to even think about doing something like this my first time through... and my second time through, aswell. And probably the third time too.

It's not interesting or challenging. It's breaking gameplay in order to eliminate the primary game mechanic. It's cheating.

I don't agree. I don't think it is cheating. They are just doing something that's well within the limits of the game.

Today people love to make excuses for everything no matter how poor, and it's suckers like you who let them.

Please refrain from personal attacks. Just having a different opinion doesn't make me a "sucker". Do you feel offended when they don't play the game the way you think they should?

Okay, if you somehow find it challenging for you to commit suicide in Amnesia, then fine, it's a challenge. Kids are doing this to cheat because they're too scared otherwise, but if you find it to be a bigger challenge, then fine.
