Well, Pigs can't come soon enough frankly. I took the plunge with Slender and realized it was probably the most overrated horror game I have ever, ever played. Seriously. So you turn and he is waiting for you. So you 'jump'. And that's the game.

Replace Slender with, giant smiling sunflower, disused toaster, or frozen combine harvester and it's the same effect. It's the easiest, most cowardly way to 'scare' you even though it's just a short sharp shock more then anything. Collecting 8 pages? Why? And why don't the pages have anything useful for at least some sort of a story? None of that matters because apparently all that's important is the aesthetics of a horror game, or should I say a horror experience. Pah.

Oh, so The Slender: Arrival does try to make a game of it and according to most it sucks. So that says it all. Nobody has done it better then FG in recent times.

Just a random unrelated thought: Have you played Penumbra yet?

It is better for gaming however best would be low response time IPS WQHD with a oc'ed driver board.

DPI with 1080P on 42 inch is something to almost cry about why would you want to play on it.

Here is a "man" sewed together out of pig's skin... a Pigman or a Manpig... perhaps

And this happened to the poor orphans who worked for Mr. mandus

...The possibility of Mayan culture in this game fascinates and scares me. I think it's going to be great, whether there will be any indication of animal or human sacrifice or not. I have been pondering Oswald's 'trip to Mexico' bit and know there is far more about the game's plot then we may think we know.

I think exactly the same way, because of the hint with the mayan culture-like pedestal under the swine-cruzifix.

It cant be just a creative coincidence if you compare it with aztecs art.

Perhaps in the storyline will be an important new (secret?)"religion"-cult or sect - a mixture out of the christianity and the mayan human (and pigs?)sacrifice cult... and mandus has to do with it since his trip to mexico...

In cultures which practised human blood sacrifices - the dolorous slaughtering of babys, small children and young virgins had the most energetic effect in their superstitious belief of gaining more magic might through it.
They thaught that their gods will give them much luck and power after doing these bloody things. (not only the aztecs did those things, the Sumerians did it almost the same way with their horrible cult of Ba'al)

Perhaps the poor orphans from the letter are scheduled for something like this weird stuff.

when anything of such things will be in aamfp - it would be eerie! (on a strange but good way)
