Post-Game Show: Amnesia: The Dark Descent

Well, that was "fun."  I honestly didn't think I'd get through it, and I guess some purists would say I didn't entirely, but fuck 'em.  I got a credits screen, AND THAT'S ALL I WANTED.  Seriously, Amnesia has an excellent story and some interesting puzzles, but at some point it stops being scary and starts being tedious.  And that's not me being an internet badass, I hate scary games.  But once you find out the monsters just disappear when you hide from them, or move into a new area, it just becomes a matter of "alright, leave already so I can figure out what levers to pull here."  And that's not exciting in the least.  But, overall, it's a pretty well put together game.

Final Grade: B-
