Less Interactivity than before?

[cantremember]

I agree you should be able to move more objects. Like in The Dark Descent you could move flower pots and small rocks and chairs around, but the further the game progressed, the fewer 'meaningless' objects seemed to be movable (or I just tried it less?) Like small wood fragments from a hole in the ceiling, for some reason glued to the ground.

In Penumbra I loved being able to push the closets over, and move the matress around in the cell, it really helped with the immersion that you are really there, looking for a way out, as opposed to figure out a puzzle by hovering over an object that happens to show hand icon.

It's also something I really hated in Half-Life 2. Their source engine with physics was supposed to be the next big thing, but the physics were way off (everything seemed really light) and the only objects you could move are cans, and some barrels and planks which were meant to be part of a teeter-totter puzzle, most of the crap on the floor was glued to it.

It would be cool if you really could slow down a monster by jamming the door with a table, like in one of the Amnesia trailers
