Hi!

I recently finished Amnesia: The Dark Descent, and I feel disappointed. What started as an interesting story, quite suddenly took a major downturn.
Throughout the game there where many parts where I shat brix, had fits of paranoia and sometimes bursts of laugh, then...

I came down to where Johann Weyer was chained, and suddenly everything started being really supernatural. Electric shields was protecting Alexander and I needed this magical orb to gain entrance, and when I come in, the final encounter wasn't nearly as epic as I had hoped for. He merely floated there, behind his magical blue barrier (naked I must add) telling me how foolish I was, and apparently didn't want me to neither push down his magical pylons or throw the head of my friend into the, yes, magical portal. Sheez.

When I look back at the game, it doesn't seem nearly as scary as it seemed while playing it, and the ending left me unsatisfied. It just became all to supernatural and magical.

Anyone agree?

I spent my indie PC budget on Recettear.

Still, I watched a playthrough online. And that managed to scare me, so that says a lot. The ending was as big of a letdown as the supernatural bullshit in the last hour of Uncharted 1.

AND THAT IS A HUGE INSULT

I never really got around to playing Uncharted, but I hate when they set you up for what seems to be a great story, and when they reach the end all the good writers have gone out to get lunch and they have to make the toiletcleaners write the rest.

So you didn't think anything supernatural was happening when the walls, doors, and floors were all starting to have red goo appear on it all in front of your eyes?
