Not much to see here, though the more they show the less impact it has when it comes out, I guess. Can't wait to see more of what Frictional + thechineseroom can cook up. Very excited/nervous.

Looks like an Amnesia game. I can only wonder if it will be as terrifying as Dark Descent.

Fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck.

Definitely looking forward to more Amnesia induced nightmares :D D:

I still really want to play the first Amnesia, but I'm really turned off by the mechanics of the game. Oh well, I'll probably end up buying it during some Steam sale anyways!

woaaaaah. the typography on that titlecard looks nice as FUCK bro.

:,(

I'm ready.

A game by Trent Reznor.

That's pretty great. Looks like there will be outdoor areas this time around. I'm excited!

I love frictional

That's a weak subtitle.

Really? It managed to free itself from a million other cliche subtitles in games/movies/everything.

@BeachThunder: I dont remember anything outdoors in the last amnesia game other then climbing around outside a window

fuck this shit man, I can't play the dark descent cause it's too stressful I got about half way and stopped. This looks cool!

That's a weak subtitle.

You should have gotten it as part of the humble bundle.

And Amnesia is like the Penumbra games. Which is why I am somewhat skeptical of this. Frictional seems to be a one note developer. Granted, Amnesia was the apotheosis of everything they have done so far, but I hope this is more than just another Frictional game. We don't know enough to say either way, and even if this is more Amnesia with only a little variation I'll be happy to pick it up, but I hoped for something a little better/different looking. Gathering parts to make a machine work so you can clear the passageway while you piece together the story via Lovecraftian diary entries only plays so many times. The inclusion of thechineseroom has my hopes up though.

@Donkeycow: I thought about it at the time, but something about it mechanically really turns me off. However, as said, I'll probably end up buying it regardless in some sale! (and never, ever touch it).

@BeachThunder: Ya I remember now. That doesn't really count though. Haha- I don't wanna give spoilers but you know what I mean. Presumably, anyway, it will have more open areas. While there were glimpses of it in the last one, it was not fully explored.

Wow, this looks phenomenal. Though it looks similar gameplay-wise to Dark Descent, the plot description on the site sounds almost like it's taking a cue from the great Ice Pick Lodge game Pathologic.

I'm excited.

Oh god, seeing all of those wide-open areas reminded me of the column-filled cavern towards the end of Amnesia. The idea of being so exposed and being so vulnerable is absolutely horrifying. And then the actual gameplay in that trailer. . . oh shit man. Oh shit I don't want that game at all. Oh shiiiiiit. ):

(I'm still going to buy it)

As scary as Amnesia 1 was, I think the monster designs were pretty weak. Their scariness came more from the fact that you had no way to fight back and they were hunting you. The monsters themselves weren't really that scary. So I think them going with a some kind of squealing pig mutant is a great way to go cause hearing the squeals as it broke down the door was pretty damn freaky.

BWWOOOOMMM! *cuts to next scene*

Looks promising.

FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK. Pig people!?!?! This game is FUCKED. Cannot wait.

I agree. Amnesia was so great because it was the perfect execution of the formula they created in the Penumbra series. I would definitely like to see them stretch themselves a bit, though. At least someone is still trying to make horror games though.

Fuck, let the never ending nightmare begin.

EVIL. FUCKING. PIGS!

No movie, videogame or story touches what Amnesia did. It actually fucking scared me.

I can't wait.

Well they have the help of The Chinese Room (The guys from Dear Esther) so I bet this one is going to be a lot different and way better than their previous games.

This is just a rumour that´s been spreading on NeoGaf and /v/ so don´t take my word on this but I´ve heard that the game doesn´t have any HUD besides an inventory. You CANNOT pause the game. You just can´t. Only a save and quit button.

@Deusx: If there really isn't any option to pause the game ... I don't know if I can do it. Pause is like my sanctuary from pissing my pants. I would prefer to stay dry.

Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo D:

As someone that gets lost easily, that part was extra terrifying.

That's a weak subtitle.

It should have been Amnesia 2: Revelations. No. A Machine for Pigs is a perfectly creepy/disgusting subtitle.

Best horror subtitle ever as far as I am concerned.

@PeasantAbuse said:

Are you insane?! A Machine for Pigs! That sounds so fucking gnarly! YOU'RE a weak subtitle!

Awesome, I wonder if it will have the same sort of cryptic lovecraftian overtones/feel. I rather enjoyed piecing things together with the story as I made my way through Amnesia. Looking forward to see what the addition of the Dear Esther folks brings to the game compared to Amnesia Dark Descent and the Penumbra series.

Amnesia... Fuck that game! I don't think I've ever been scared to go back to a game just from the creepy sound design. D:

And A Machine for Pigs is a brilliant subtitle. Screw the haters.

This is turning out to be really grotesque. Ever since they revealed the subtitle. I don't know if I'll be foolish enough to play it, but it looks really awesome.

the music at the end of the teaser was awesome, too.

Can't even finish the original game. Now you introduce all this disgusting pig imagery? NOPE NOPE NOPE NOPE.

That's a weak subtitle.

Makes me think of this guy:

but probably way worse.

@PeasantAbuse said:

I think it's great. It conjures so much horrific imagery. I am so ready for this game.

I want to play the first one now

Can't wait for this. After playing Dear Esther, which honestly scared the shit out of me a couple of times, I have faith that these two developers will deliver nothing less than an absolutely terrifying experience.

@Turambar: Isn't that bundle over?

Gah, that squealing... my body is simultaneously ready and extremely unready.

It's funny how pigs under non-horror circumstances are usually cute, delicious and lovable, but throw the word "machine" in there or involve Trent Reznor, and suddenly they are horrifying hellbeasts.

Being chased by giant pigs through creepy environments? It looks amazing, but I can't for the life of me finish the Amnesia I already own...it's scary as hell, but I'm also not having fun playing it. It's too bad.
