The title makes no sense.

If one in the dark then how does one know if they are alone?

[Supernautilus]

Because I'm alone even in the light.

*cries*

The title never made sense from the beginning, the original game only had fully lit rooms.

There were two pitch black rooms and one long pitch black cavern

Because "Alone In The Dark" is not meant to be taken literally. The title actually refers to how you need to investigate things and solve puzzles in order to unravel whatever's going on with the plot of the game... At every Alone In The Dark game, you are always a detective sent to investigate some supernatural occurence, and you have no idea what the hell is going on until you play the game and investigate the matter further... So, you need to play these games with a "i'm completely in the dark about what the heck is going on here" kind of approach

Can confirm dilemma. I just closed my eyes and couldn't tell if I was alone.

[TerraDyte]

You ever thought that the dark is alone and you're the one haunting it? :P

Exactly!

[Doctor Hades]

And if you are "Alone in the Dark" then there's really no danger, is there?

[Čmaroljub Grozni]

Makes more sense than with the previous Alone in the Dark Game.
You were never alone and there was never any dark because everything was on fire lmao

[KaosRebourne]

Why not??

OMG, "Dark" refers to the darkness of fear related to the Lovecraft myths. Like "Call of Cthulhu: Dark Corners of the Earth". I hope you were joking. XD

And he's right. The title loses its essence if the house is full of people. Alone is just that, alone. Not Alone with a girl, the maid and anyone else who happens to be walking around.

But hey, it's a Double A reinterpretation, where they preferred to spend a LOT of money hiring two actors that nobody had asked for, instead of investing it in a decent gunplay, graphics and optimisation. Another missed opportunity, and what about the price? Triple A price with Double A quality. Wonderful. :D
