All the games that you've given us is actually bad. Amnesia is a masterpiece.

Nah, it's really short and it's just finding 8 things 3 times, the story's good, but not well presented. I had a better time watching let's plays with ten extra bucks in my pocket to be honest
I like how I posted something relevant to the topic and everyone kind of ignored me. : P
Quote: On topic: I am wondering how much the locals are going to get involved
with the story. In Bioshock Infinite, they are actually doing people
business things while I avoid the cops. I wonder if they will do
something like that in AAMFP. I just hope that mandus isn't on the run
from authority. That is an awesome plot device but already done by BS:
I.
Either that, or I completely imagined the part where there are other people in the game.

I have a ton of extra keys from when it was free, if you really do want one.

Don't get me wrong here. I think the game is bad, in its current form. But my complaints have nothing to do with its length or the variety of gameplay.
The game is short, but there's no problem with that. It's cheap, it's made to be played in one sitting for a full experience. This kind of thing is great for horror games. I think it would only lessen the experience to pad out a horror game just for the sake of it.
The game has some great visuals and it is scary. Honestly, I'd say it had me on edge just as much as some of Amnesia's best moments.
The problem is, where Amnesia creates an illusion of challenge, Slender provides too much challenge. To the point where you'll be dying and forced to restart an intense level 10 times in a row. It stops being scary and then becomes frustrating.
This is, mainly just the third level for me. I've seen plenty of others with that trouble, too. Before and after level 3 though, the game is pretty great. Just that level and an easy to encounter bug in level 4 really drag the game down. If they get patched out it could be awesome, though.
Hate to keep the derailment going but there isn't much news for AAMFP at the moment anyways, so I have to butt in.
The Slender: The Arrival, I BELIEVE, is perfectly reasonable for $10. If it were higher, I'd deny that, but for what it's worth in length, detail, and presentation, I believe it's perfectly priced. And at first, I thought they were going to do a solid "campaign" and not repeat the same thing they did in the first, I really thought about it, and if they DIDN'T, it wouldn't feel the same, you know? The original Slender game was known for its gameplay mechanic, and what they did here was take that, make it MUCH prettier, gave you unlimited sprint (THANK YOU), and gave you a few environments to play on. I haven't bought it because I'm trying not to spend money willy nilly now, but I have no problem with the price, and the game suits it just fine in my opinion. I'm surprised to say this, but I have no complaints for it... (from what I've seen in Let's Plays so far)
Can someone ban EzioAuditore? He's nothing more than annoying troll.
