Possibly one of the scariest games EVER
 

Anybody ever play Amnesia: The Dark Descent?

It's set in a castle in 1893, you wake up, you just know that your name is Daniel, and there are no weapons PERIOD. You have to hide/escape all the monsters in the castle. You do have a lantern, but it has a very limited amount of oil, and must be replenished by finding canisters around the castle. You also have a sanity meter that dwindles when you see/look at something scary (monster, entity, weird stuff growing on walls) or hide in the dark for too long.

This game has a HUGE puzzle factor to it as well.

Here's the trailer:

I really want this game now.



And of course, a reaction video. Contains a bit of language, but I was pretty much too busy laughing my ass off:sm0:



There is a demo on Steam if you're willing to try it out. You can pick it up now at a mere $20.00

I am a horror buff... I'm def considering this...

Seriously on that second video, stop living in your mom's basement is all I gotta say.

I played the demo, it's definitely pretty freaky!

Your sig pic is AWESOME Dude

If the game gets to him this much can u imagine him at one of those halloween haunted houses. He would honestly die of fright. Wierdo, but his friends ragging on him is hilarious.

Looks like my dry pastel self portrait I did in Art IV. I'll have to find it somewhere and take a pic.

:sm0:

The whole thing was hilarious if you ask me! "WOOOOOOAAAAHHHH, NO NO NO NONONONONONONO I'M GONNA DIE!" :laugh:

Damn. My puter is barely a year old and apparently not current enough to play the demo of this game.

Figures.

With my current specs I can only play it on medium with a couple options set to low.

My specs:

Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit
Intel Core 2 Quad @ 2.33 GHz
2GB DDR2 RAM
1TB SATA HD (665 GB still left)
EVGA Nvidia 9600GT KO
Antec EARTHWATTS 430 Watt PSU

Planned upgrades:
2GB RAM to at least 6GB RAM
Nvidia GTX 550 Ti
Aftermarket CPU heatsink with fan (not sure which one yet)
Re-paste CPU before installing new heatsink
Creative X-Fi sound card
500 Watt or bigger PSU unit.

Although this game isn't why I'm upgrading, can anybody say BATTLEFIELD 3???

Reminds me of Myst only you actually have characters involved now...

i got dis,

Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit
Intel Core I7 Sandy Bridge 3.4ghz
Radeon HD6970 2GB
16GB G-Skill Ram
2.75TB of HD space
Gigabyte Motherboard

or my Alienware M17X R3 should be able to play it :P

seems kind of cool, i may buy it this weekend, but for now its off to bed lol

Hmm, so that's the meaning of dedication? (or wealth.:D)

I've always heard tho that it's useless having more than 8 GB of RAM since there's not really any (if any) games that require more than 8 GB of RAM. The only games that I can think of that uses 8 GB are Microsoft Flight Simulator X and Metro: 2033.

I just finished up a budget build for playing Battlefield 3. Came in just under $700 from Newegg.

Here are the specs:

AMD Phenom II X4 3.4 GHz Black Edition
Biostar A870U3 MB
ASUS GeForce GTX 460 1GB
G.Skill Ripjaws X Series 4GB (2 x 2GB) DDR3 1600
OCZ ModXStream 700W PSU
Windows 7 Home
Cooler Master 922 Case

It handles Crysis at the highest settings and 1900x600 with just a little blur when spinning the gun around.
