Amnesia: A Machine For Pigs

I now play games in the mindset of a game designer and not a gamer. I think about how I would design the level, how i would write the story, how I would design the puzzles instead of just alowwing myself to be immersed

Me too. But I think it is very important to be able to enjoy games. Otherwise, how do you know whether what you create is actually fun or not?

I'm not satisfyed with lack of any humor whatsoever in this game. And this parent child BioShock ref is annoying, music suks too big time. Got sick at this Victorian epoch style haunted house clishe. Factory is good, if there would be another storyline, it could be 5 star game.

What excuse do we have not to sculpt, and sculpt, and sculpt, until the job is done?

Take a look at outlast, despite another obvious asylum-patients clishe it is quite a gem both technicaly and design wise. I espesially loved voiceovers, great acting, not some amateur stuff from AMFP.

Very mixed reviews on this one. For me the first Amnesia pretty much rubbed on the face of every game developer how to make a horror game. The thing is, now we know! there's a bazillion of great horror games that grew from that seed, thus A Machine For Pigs won't have the advantage it had before.

      Finally got my PC back from the shop after my SSD got corrupted a week ago and damaged my motherboard. Scary stuff, but thank goodness it happened right after two months of FM development instead of wiping all my work before I could release it. New SSD, repaired Motherboard and BIOS, and we're ready to start working on my second FM with some added version control in the cloud just to be safe!

      I've updated the articles for your FMs and your author category at the wiki. Your newer nickname (DeTeEff) now comes first, and the one in parentheses is your older nickname (Fieldmedic). Just to avoid confusing people who played your FMs years ago and remember your older nickname. I've added a wiki article for your latest FM, Who Watches the Watcher?, as part of my current updating efforts. Unless I overlooked something, you have five different FMs so far.

      I've finally managed to log in to The Dark Mod Wiki. I'm back in the saddle and before the holidays start in full, I'll be adding a few new FM articles and doing other updates. Written in Stone is already done.

      You cannot receive PMs. Could you please be so kind and check your mailbox if it is full (or maybe you switched off the function)?
